would this be good? we went from 2 billion to 6 billion in 60 years and we will add another 0.3 Billion within 5 years

i personally dislike an over exponential growth. and as for the game it'll only cause player side exploits. despite that one has to consider the huge amount of food resources that spawn through random events.
Really, I don't think i ever had a food resource spawn. Doesn't really matter, it makes the building more dynamic so if it isn't in the mod, I will just add it in to my own. I already have other things i want to add when I get back, that is just one additional.

It used to happen all the time on my Marathon games in RoM 2.61, but then the UP scaled the resource appearance with gamespeed, so it's fairly rare again.

I would like an ObsoleteTech tag for units just like there is one for buildings. This is not a big deal as I only have one unit that needs it since it has a limited time frame where it is meaningful and upgrading it is meaningless.

You are in luck. I looked and apparently Phungus added a "ForceObsoleteTech" tag to UnitInfos and I merged it in, and forgot all about it. It's already in beta6, so you can use it now. I assume you can figure out how to add a new tag to the schema and unitinfos. If not, I can help.
...Not sure why he didn't just call it "ObsoleteTech", but whatever...

Thanks.
because programmers always choose the wrong name given the chance. Its because we don't thing like real people do.

I saw that too, had the same reaction, but couldn't bring myself to post.
How about a tag that allows you to build money, science, espionage, or culture, but at an altered hammer rate. It would be great if you could put the hammer rate maybe in a percentage, so at currency you can build gold, but at only 25% of the hammers put in, later techs could allow a great percentage. Going with that idea, how about a tag for civics that alters the way hurry production works, this would work best with hurrying with gold, so you can have an earlier hurry with gold, it would just cost more gold to build, a higher gold to production ratio.
If you can't do it at a modifiable level how about a tag for say 50% conversion, so only half hammers would convert into the other resource?

Oh, I can do all of that.
However, right now, you can set different percentages for the hammer to Commerce ratios. So you could have 50% gold to hammers, 25% gold to hammers, etc... Whatever you want.
So really, you are asking for civics and techs to alter the rate, right?

Argh! I can't get it to work! Probably dyslexia again but it says that ForceObsoleteTech is not part of UnitInfo! Would it be possible for someone to look at the schema and xml attached and see what it is I did wrong.

the file has an error on line 181. It should be
Code:
<ForceObsoleteTech/>NOT
Code:
</ForceObsoleteTech>Didn't actually load it up, but that was the error I say.

Yea, I figured it out just after posting. Just needed to test it before coming back here. Thanks.
Well this is for the buildable research, gold, etc, and the hurry production of slavery and money. But yes they are fairly similar in concept.

For buildings and events we need an OR list of prerequsite buildings. Mostly to cover the upgraded buildings like harbour. There are a number of events that require a number of harbours or ports but if you upgrade them then they do not count.
Not urgent - I am going to use a work around for AAranda's wonder for now

No problem. I'll add it.

I would love to see this mod component incorporated into A New Dawn - Civilization Specific Tech Trees
The author has updated it for BtS 3.19, and including it in AND would require both SDK and python work. I really think that this would add a great deal to Civilization - it would get rid of the "one size fits all" tech tree. Note that I'm not asking for it to be implemented in gameplay, merely the potential functionality.
