WIP: RoM 2.3 - Events

Maatissi · Aug 1, 2008

There are many important national holidays and traditional celebrations in all cultures all over the world, so perhaps that kind of event should be added to RoM also?

Historical/Wonder/Building "Great Celebration" Event:

- Could be triggered by many different events: completition of wonder, just by having a wonder or building in a city (eg. temples or cathedrals or Oracle wonder could trigger a religious festival tradition), "winning" or finishing a war (victory celebrations and a memorial day) etc.

- Effects could range from additional culture to additional profit, and if the celebration becomes a traditional annual/periodical holiday the bonus would be a permanent one. (Eg. +1 gold or commerce or culture for the city.)

- There could be a list of random names that would be given to each new traditional festival or celebration arising - adding more atmosphere to the game. (Eg. "Now the Zulus are celebrating their religious festival of [some random name or title for the fest].)

- Player options would naturally be the decisions on how elaborately to support the new celebration/festival.

- Due to the nature of the event, it could happen quite often for all civs?

This idea seems quite flexible to me and could easily add more atmosphere to the gameplay. Please help me to develop the idea!

Another one - gee, my reading's a little obvious...

Event: "Aristeia" (Or, for the more modern, "Their Finest Hour")
Trigger: Unit kills more than (x) units by itself and survives the round (might be a little tricky to code, I admit, mostly on that "survives the round" thing)
Effect: Either Heroic Epic provides +1 XP to new units in its city, or trigger unit gets Leadership promotion even if it doesn't have a General.

Event: "The Alamo"
Trigger: Above conditions minus survival
Effect: Either Heroic Epic provides +1 XP to new units in its city, or player gets (x) units at zero experience as if militia had spawned in RevDCM.

Hi Zap
since I see you working on a future 2.3 version of RoM, may I humbly suggest to add BAT mod (it has BUG 3.0 Varietas Delectat inside, among some other components) along with the Late period CTD fix

? that would greatly increase game experience...

Nemesys · Aug 27, 2008

Actually, that kind of patch would enable us to play the mod till the end....

Here's the final list of changes for v2.3:

Spoiler :

Alas, I do not see changes in error correction "Kolonist" and "Pioneer" for the game for multiplayer. That so?

All changes are liked, await the opportunity to download.

Wow! Those changes/additions/fixes look great for 2.3. Any idea as to when 2.3 will be released? Thanks!

I'd like there to be a "black Plague" or "major epidemic" event. Maybe something that can have a high chance of being triggered by a city with a high sickness level. Say if it's triggered then you have an option of "finding a cure immediately at no expense" investing 100 gold into funding for a vaccine, which will then have a 50% chance probability of being triggered next turn or switch off pending on the randomizing effect. Or if you've low funds or want to risk it then 50 gold would give a probability of 75% chance of being re-triggered next turn with a population loss of 1 in that city. Or if you have no funds then the last option would be to "wait it out" and the consequences of that is 75% chance of it being re-triggered next turn with a population loss of 1 in addition a 50% chance of it spreading to a nearby city ( reduced to 25% if there is 1 or more medic unit in that city ) even if it's a neighboring country's city too!

And what else would be great is if new world wonders which have movies would have the movies removed and replaced with just still photos and maybe custom audio tracks, this would really make it easier to complete the rest of the world wonders for which movies cannot be found, reduce the size of the mod itself and give this mod a slightly more polished feeling.

What would be cool is a religious schism event. But then the mod needs more religions

It could be done by merging Johnny's rapture mod though

Great work on 2.3 . . I'm looking for a giant earth map with a few old civ only to enjoy revolution.

Thank you

I'd like to get some feedback from those new events in v2.3 - mostly I'm concerned about how often recurring events appear because my few test games aren't really enough to see how those events "behave". For example Mercenaries (different eras have own events for them so they might occur too often still), volcanoes, plague etc. can happen many times. So if you notice some event occurring way too often, let me know and I'll tweak some numbers for the next version.

One thing i'd like to see is an option to select more frequent events in custom settings. Was quite nice to have in FFH mod. Failing that, is there a setting in python or an ini I can modify to increase event frequency?
