Okay, sorry, plantations on irrigated tiles, my bad.
I got that we were trying to explain what the addon does. I just haven't realized before that you could place some bonus-improvements on non-bonus tile. There's one easy way to balance this out though: leave the bonus-improvements on bonus tile.

I think these 2 mods would fit in perfectly:

Yes, but plantations are only good for +1
+1
(I think) at base. What's so rediculess about that? They also don't get much better.
If it's the spawing that you think is un-balanced, the FF+ dosn't have anything to boast spawn rate, unlike Orbis.

Well, I don't see what you're referring to. The executives of some guilds maybe? Those that can discover new resources? If so, I don't like that mechanic either. I don't like it when you can pop resources out of nowhere instead of just doing how you can with what you have.
I do like the "x% chance to discover y resource" with an improvement though.

No, I meant how nature magic incereases spawn rate. Also, no, executive can't do that. Thankfully. Al I every got in Orbis was Crazed anyway.
Just to be clear, it is a add on module JUST SO feedback and balancing can take place. The people that don't like it don't currently have to play with it.
I LOVE the idea myself. I think they MAY need to tone down the chance to spawn resources. Right now (with enough workers) you can fill the area between BFCs with improvements and watch as they slowly pop new resources. it isn't FAST. I have gotten maybe 3-4 a game. As it is currently written if you use an improvement that can pop a resource in a BFC you are actually hurting yourself. He balanced the improvements that spawn resources so that they are balanced ON a resource. If you don't have a resource then you are not getting much in the way of production from that square.

Not much sillier than being able to build a farm/town/workshop/mill anywhere. A plantation is just a farm that is growing a cash crop rather than foodstuffs.
The improvements are extensively changed/rebalanced in the tweak module. The goal is to have more interesting choices when developing your BFC. I grew very tired of cottage-spam and aristo-farm spam.The resource spawning has very little practical impact at its current rate. 5 plantations will spawn one resource every 500 turns, on the average.

I very much agree; this system is much more interesting this way.

I can look at that. I seem to recall (don't have the file in front of me) that workshops were +3 hammers -1 food. That is 4 hammers on a plain...pretty solid.

I don't agree here.. They make workshops useless if A. The Quarry is on marble and B. You don't have the Industry civic. As is, I think they're fine.
You realize the "chance to discover" is what brought about this module, right? All improvements that improve a resource can discover that resource. That's the main reason Plantations and so on can be built anywhere now. They're still balanced towards resources and are nearly useless off one.

Difference of opinion, I suppose. Personally, I like it.

My hate for the Guardian is limitless. Auto-loss early, irrelevant late. Always boring. MEH.
It could at the very least be an epic dungeon and/or provide mana. Or be a super-fort that can be claimed.

I think it should be a super fort ( prehaps with a respawning gargoyal under your control... )
