Something cool with great ppl

[CHEESE!]

this fact might be known by everyone if it is its ok to crush this post

Anyway when u have a great person press SHIFT and click on tech 10 times then special effect once (cant do it more than once i dont think) and click specialist 10 times- it doesnt have to be 10, u can do 100 or more, but ALWAYS hold down the shift key. this is how to get massive tech upgrades and with artist MASSIVE culture-great artists effect can be used more than once

Just need great person and shift key-

just tested on warlords, it works.... that is a very problematic exploit. Perhaps this post should be moved into the bug reports section of the forum.

Yea, sounds like a bug/exploit issue. I doubt that the AI ever ever could abuse it though so just show some restraint and it won't be a problem. Pretty cool find though, I love stuff like that! I wonder if it works in MP

I thought that was fixed in the latest patch.

Tested it and all it lets me do in the current build is queue a bunch of actions but only the first actually takes hold. Massive cheese if one of the previous builds actually let this happen though, esp if it worked in MP. Thankfully the current releases do not allow it.

well it works fully on mine- all of it works

I thinked that this bug was already corrected.....

Well, I don't think to use it anyway

That's what I heard too.

Just tried, and it works in vanilla 1.74 Civ. Really, it's not funny to have a Legendary Cultured city at 1200 something BC.

Appearently, it works the same as when Shift-clicking on buildings in a city. (Shift-click = "Adds to the end of the building queue")

I couldn't get it to work in either Warlords or BtS. What exactly is supposed to happen? I queued the orders using Shift, but only the first on happened.

 

[JujuLautre]

Shoot the moon > do not queue all the different actions, but several times the same. I tested with a great artists queuing 10 times "great work", and got a legendary city in no time.

 

[Shoot the Moon]

Nope, still not working. I used Warlords (latest patch), entered world builder, gave myself a GA, held Shift, pressed Great Work 10 times, let go of shift and only got the expected 6000.

 

[JujuLautre]

I don't have latest patch (still on 2.08); perhaps there is a change here

 

[CHEESE!]

i haven't tried that GP thing at all, but i'd not be surprised if it's fixed in the other versions but not in vanilla. the 1.74 patch notes didn't all get implemented in vanilla. cossacks are still 50% vs. mounted, even tho the patch notes say 25%. but some things did get put in, like marines not going obsolete. that's like a half-finished patch or something /shrug.

Yeah, well I'd be surprised if it isn't fixed in any other version, i.e. Warlords, BtS. Also, I tested it in SP, not MP.

 

[KMadCandy]

*giggle* i just meant even if it is fixed in the other versions, vanilla seems to be where they didn't QA the whole thing. but i haven't tested this GP wackiness in any version.

Works after i got 1.61 and 1.74
