Terraforming marsh in RFC?

[Landstander]

Has anyone been to Berlin? It was built on a swamp, and to this day that have big pink pipes around construction sites used to pump out swamp gas!

there should be different stages of clearing and removing it should take a VERY long time but it will be sped up dramatically by technology so middle ages will take 20+ turns but by Modern age only 1-2 turns

Are there actually marshes in Siberia or was it just put there to represent really crappy places to put a city?

There are marshes in Siberia. Actually, the tundra seems largely be frozen marsh. Climate change is supposedly gonna thaw it all up...

Nope, not all of it. You'd need a time machine to confirm if all of it will ever thaw.

computer programming should have taught you that, that and positive feedback

Am I sensing some hostility in your last few replies? I sent you a PM instead - let us take this outside if we must.

 

[CHEESE!]

My problem isn't that Marshes aren't terraformable, but that you should be able to do something with them. Maybe a cottage that could only grow into a Hamlet or Village?

Yeah, I think I did this myself, actually...

Let me revive this necrotopic...

I was looking for marsh terraforming modmod and found this topic full of ideas... but none of solutions. I tried to use (copy-paste) the code from post 24, but it did not worked for the last version RFC (BTS), not to mention caused saves crashed...

So, could anyone share a working modmod? Thanks

P.S. Personally, I would terraform march to grassland/tundra after windmills (says, 15 turns worker plus 10+1d20 turns city working it for a single shield (torf!)) and progressively faster (10 and 5 turns worker) after steam (2 shields - torf) and electricity (2 shields + 1 gold for torf power plant). And may be give a chance to flood it back...

P.P.S. Single food on tundra and forest replanting late game would be good as well...
