Silk Road

[Xanthippus]

Hey there,

First off I would like to say that the balance is so much better of late! I still feel there is a little too much money though, and I would like to edit the Silk Road wonder (I know, silly to build it if I thought there was too much money, but I'm RPing). Thing is... I can't find the info! I've looked in Assets/XML/Buildings/CIV4BuildingInfos, but it is not there. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Have a look at Tweaks_CIV4BuildingInfos.xml (...\Assets\Modules\Hydro\Tweaks\) and see if that's where you want to adjust things.

The income boost was reduced from 100% to 50% on or around 10 December.

That did it, thanks. I changed it to a 5% boost, 3 extra trade routes instead of 1, and a 30% boost to trade route yield.

Having advanced into the Classical Era, and now having access to civics that don't have a malus to maintenance, I am once again finding myself swimming in gold. Much better balanced than last time I gave this game a try (when I already had tens of thousands in the Prehistoric Era), but I'm still finding it too abundant. Just my two cents... but I would like to try and fix it myself! Can anyone tell me where I might be able to bump up the default costs for maintenance?

What level are you playing on? Do any of your leader traits decrease or increase maintenance? How many cities are you running? can you post a save game?

I play on Immortal and my research slider is around 50% - 90% from late Prehistoric to right now in mid-Ancient. Previous game I was not able to solve my cash crunch until late-Classical; after Currency and lots of Jewelry buildings. One factor for me was leader with a Civic maintenance hit and also lots of expansion which lead to lots of city maintenance.
