Vox Populi very very hard after update?

Still going, but completion got bogged down by a total re-write of JFDLC for performance and QoL. However, it should be ready quite soon, as filling out my own Tutorials are the last thing I need to do before starting to re-release JFDLC, and I've recently fixed the one major issue I was having trouble with (queuing tutorials). It'll need some pressure testing from there, so I'll eviscerate it from JFDLC and pass it along as a separate mod, until its in such a state that you might be confident to integrate it into VP (or just leave it as a separate, installable mod; whichever suits).

Is it possible to change the text for the ingame advisors. I never bother with them because the advice is too generic and not applicable to VP, and even in BNW it's kind of worthless. Maybe a mod mod could make them useful to a new player.

Text isn't the issue, it's that a lot of the underlying logic is locked. Anyways the advisor system they made should be binned forever.

Now that's efficiency.

That then leaves the only possible ingame help is the Civlopedia, it's passive(the problem with it) and can be done in a mod mod, or just point the new user to the forums to get possible strategies.

But I actually kind of like the military advisor, he gives me a run-down of each nation's military relative to each other.

The tutorial in Civ6 is a huge Lua script that simulates several turns of the game. When a specific user action is required, it disables all UI controls except those that a user must activate. Devs put a huge amount of work into this and practically entire UI is programmed to function „normally” and in „tutorial mode”.
I cannot imagine doing something like that for VP, this work would better go into error fixing, balancing and making QoL improvements in UI.

I used to use him as well. But I now prefer the military strength score you can see if you mouse over a civ's score next to the leader's portrait in the column on the right-hand edge of the screen.

Today I learned.

This also gave me a random idea that is probably not going to be implemented-what if there was a military catch-up resolution like the science/culture ones? Like lesser civs would receive decreased production, gold/upgrade costs for units and combat boosts.

You could even extend this to diplomacy-civs that have less city-state allies would receive bonuses towards diplomatic units and their influence.
