Yet Another Thormod: Civilization III

[Omega124]

Also since I invariably have to explain this to everyone.

In the base civ 3, there's an established limit of about 5 build often traits, with most civs having about 3-4. Only a max of two are military themed. Most of you guys need to seriously cut down on your build oftens.

A further note on Leaderheads:

The bare minimum I need is one 200x240 portrait, but if any of you are like Reus and want to really deck yourselves out, there are a few other things you can customize:

Like with Civ4, leaders' expressions change based on their mood in diplomacy (Happy, Neutral, Angry). This can't be modded easily for the diploscreen because leaderhead animations are pre-rendered sequences of the expression changing from happy to angry. One place they can be used is the Foreign Advisor screen, which features variations for all four eras, and variations for all three moods:

In addition to multiple eras, there are also unique Game Over versions that vary depending on who won and how. Unlike the Advisorheads above, these only reflect one (the leader's 'native') era:

• Happy: The Default Victory; leader is smiling. Also used by opponents when you are defeated.
• Angry: Player has lost, but was not eliminated.
• Beaten Up: Variation on 'angry'; player was conquered.
• Kisses: Variation on 'happy'; face is covered in lipstick. Cultural or UN victory.
• Hearts: Variation on 'happy', leader is looking up at a large heart in the top-left corner (inside is a small icon of the Happy Victor - actually a separate file overlaid). Cultural or UN defeat.
• Neutral: I'm not actually sure when or where this is used, but better safe than sorry.

Spoiler Examples, in order :

Diplotext

This one's the hard part. In Civ4, the diplotext is mostly generic with one or two leader-specific lines. In Civ3, most of the lines are leader-specific. If you recall my submission to RIGGED, that is the MINIMUM required under the default schematic. Here's a breakdown of all the categories and applicable variables:

Spoiler :

#civ = Binary flag to sort responses by civilization, in order of their list in the game rules.
#power = Binary flag to sort responses by AI's Power level, from Low to High.
#mood = Binary flag to sort responses by AI's Mood, from Happy to Angry.
#random = Number of entries per preceding variable(s); always at least 1. If Power or Mood is flagged, this means the number of entries per level thereof; if Civ is flagged, this multiplies per number of civilizations. (Ex.: civ 1 power 1 random 3 would mean there would be three entries each per Power level, per Civ.) Worth noting is that in instances of call-and-response (DEMANDTRIBUTE→ACCEPTTRIBUTE/BLUFFISCALLED), entries are paired with those on the same line as their counterpart list.
N.B.: It is technically possible to flag both Power and Mood (as in Civ4), but I haven't found a mod that's done that and I'm not sure how that affects the rank-order.

[Omega124]

I have begun to work on my AI diplo responses, but I have a few questions:

1. Can you be a bit more specific on what power and mood does? You give the range, but you don't give the interval. I never played Civ 3, so I don't know how many levels of power and mood there are. Meanwhile, should we place the lowest on top or bottom?
2. What exactly does the User UI responses do? Are they strictly necessarily, because they are not in your example list at all
3. You say the demandtribute and accept/reject are call-and-response, but they're not actually listed as such in your master list. I know that's a bit pedantic to point out, but I just want to be explicitly clear if they are or aren't.
4. Is it possible if you could give examples for the nonessential diplo text options? Your examples on RIGGED were helpful in writing my own responses.

1. Three steps for both; Low Power and Happy on top. There are actually five mood levels but they're grouped as follows: Gracious, Polite/Cautious, Annoyed/Furious.
2. It's the text for the options in the diploscreen. I don't actually expect to mod them (very few mods bother, and none customize per civ), but I included them for posterity.
3. They are.

I'm going to write up my thang asap.

General Strategy:
IOT/Nesian playstyle is almost exclusively to play Scandinavia/Denmark, although there is otherwise a tendency to craft creatures of insanity and/or extreme zeal in fantasy or scifi scenarios. The civilization should be peaceful but reflect a sort of constant internal ebb and flow between my DYOSesque angst and destruction and sheer "drive". Like Schopenhauer's Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung, the society themes pure drive or will as a force to be reckoned with. As such, the civilization prospers incredibly with culture, having assorted secondary effects that can spiral the economy out of control, particularly in areas of science and environmentalism. But with increased culture, the society also gains increased insanity which has some adverse effect if possible, perhaps its economic buildings increase corruption with increased cultural output to counter the efficiency or bonuses from culture, or military production becomes incredibly slow with increased culture. (Primary?) Unique unit should be an incredibly expensive defensive juggernaut. Also a third-age unit named "Nesian invader" should be available for ex-Nesers in general or people that otherwise used to associate more with nesing than ioting.

For game pacing, because I joined late, the civilization is supposed to be very minor in the early game, mostly procuring a political situation to ensure its own stability and safety while peacemonging its culture economy. Only during the late game, it becomes more of a foroce in the sense that it's incredibly difficult to invade, although you kind of have to in order to counteract the sheer science output and purity of environmentalist economy.
This is not because I think I have much of a presence on these forums, but I think that if any game period should make sense for the civ, late game would be the most reasonable. Particularly if you go by the Discordian Era category, I think I'm prominent enough there to be a reasonable force in game terms.

A short and sweet shorthand for the playstyle would be "apocalyptic environmentalism-powered madness".

what does Trojan Horse mean?

Civs with Level 1 aggression will act docile for most of the game, but there's a chance they'll flip and go hyper-militant. You know, the Gandhi Effect.

Also a third-age unit named "Nesian invader" should be available for ex-Nesers in general or people that otherwise used to associate more with nesing than ioting.

It's funny 'cuz I was gonna make NES Classic the barbarians.

 

[Angst]

Level 1 sounds fine then

For your consideration, preliminary sketch of the tech tree, separated by era. (Civ3 is unique in that the tech tree isn't one continuous chain.) It's mostly rearranging the base game's techs since adding/removing new ones requires adjusting research costs, and I don't want to start doing that until I've got a solid framework. Units and wonders will be overhauled, but it'll give you a basic idea of how the lines will progress.

Techs with soft borders do not need to be researched to advance the era, in case you're wondering.
Also, Feudal government unlocks with 'Min-Maxing', which was renamed.

Needless to say, I ran out of inspiration for Era 4 names.

Again, this was loosely modelled on the base game but I'm willing to expand the tree (Science Screen permitting) since I haven't accounted for custom units/improvements/wonders yet. Feel free to suggest new branches/alternate mappings, since I have a shaky handle on these at the best of times.

 

[Ailedhoo]

I think espionage should be renamed in honour of the Scarlet Lancers, the NGO that was the grandmother of them all.

Your spy power deserves the credits!

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

grandmother

don't be ageist, she doesn't look a day over 200

Although kudos for bringing it up because I totes forgot to rename that.

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

After the tech tree, the next step is units. I know I will be playing around with these, but I haven't decided exactly how.

For those unfamiliar, here's the tech progression for most of the base game's combat units:

Spoiler :

(Beige arrows denote units effectively replaced by, but that don't upgrade to, the newer class.)

I'm considering a couple of different approaches. Civilization has what I call a 'narrow' unit line: a few main classes for most of the game, with some specialists and air and naval expansion toward the end. There’s plenty of individual variation to reflect the ages, but the core roster is small and each class is easily distinguished: spears and guns defend, swords and bows attack, horses and tanks move fast, and evolution runs in a straight line.

For our purposes, a 'narrow' line means faction arsenals map out pretty much identical tech-wise and are distinguished mainly by individual units' stats. For instance, here is a prototype line for Abeille grafted onto the original layout (truncated for size):

Spoiler :

The categories stay the same, but almost every unit is custom-tailored to the faction, with strengths and weaknesses tweaked to reflect the combat doctrine from the sign-up. It's an easy way to keep this logically organized, and it's probably what I'll do for early development until most of the factions are settled and I'll be able to work out a cohesive picture.

The other way is a 'broad' line. Those of you from RIGGED will recall MartinLuther's plan was for like two dozen units available by the end game. We don't have to be that diverse, but broader and more flexible classes means more opportunity to personify the factions. Units would start to branch earlier, and depending on play style some factions might have access to 'spinoff' lines that others don't.

Here is Megs again, this time with a line tailored specifically to her strategy:

Spoiler :

Less variation on infantry, which are primarily used for defence—mechanized infantry is now a separate line, with ground offensives done by FAVs and heavy tanks. Up to three separate artillery platforms can be unlocked, as well as a dedicated ground support line for aircraft. On the flip side, as per carrier focus, battleships would be weaker/more expensive than other players'.

Independent of the overall model, there are several changes I'm going to make with the 'base' line. One is more 'privateer' (hidden nationality) units to represent the use of terrorists/NGOs in the later games. I'm also thinking of playing around with hitpoints to give leg infantry more use and reduce inclination to tankspam (Mech. Inf. have higher defence, but foot soldiers can last longer, &c.). Something else I'm brainstorming is special units for 'faction groups': for example, all the ex-NESers would get early privateer variants in Era 2 to simulate the nadir of cross-forum relations. There could be communist sets, capitalist sets... well christos is our catch-all powergamer so I guess no set for that...

Lemme know what you think, be it organizational, aesthetic, or if you've figured out what paint scheme you want for your miniatures. Once I've got the unit framework down, I can actually start looking at compiling a demo.

It's not late, development's just slow.

I think.

There's no such thing as too many simultaneous projects...

AtTENtion, DUELlists!

After over 9000 years in development, tech icons have been overhauled and the new base units are almost finished, meaning I can finally zero in on actually coding faction arsenals. The demo will still be a fair ways off as the tech tree UI has to be drawn essentially by hand, but if you haven't offered a leader portrait and/or at least a basic breakdown of what sort of units you want speak now because as it stands I only have about seven viable players.

Is there anything additional you need from me specifically?
