World Wonder second place gold?

[Thalassicus]

What variable controls the gold given when an opponent beats us to a world wonder?

I could be wrong, but I think the game just treats it as if you'd sold a building whose cost equals the number of hammers you'd wasted on the Wonder. In other words, divide by 4 (BUILDING_SALE_DIVISOR in GlobalDefines), plus whatever modifiers normally get added to building sales. Unfortunately, changing that value would also change regular building sales, so you can't really change only the wonders.

Thanks for the tip!
