Completely different topic than Pitboss 2, but perhaps it's even more timely if the game is to be paused...
Compromise and I were discussing the Adventure 43 mod in reverse. The alien civ would eat commerce, build with food, and research with hammers. I went ahead and did the coding for it. I've only done minimal mod testing so far, so if anyone finds a problem, let me know.
- I fixed the Palace to give 8 science instead of 8 commerce so the AIs aren't broken.
- Chopping a forest creates gold. It should create commerce but there really isn't any mechanism to do that. Gold is close enough. The quantity is affected by Mathematics and by hammer modifiers in the city. (I can't figure out why the game is using the food icon. You get gold.)
Mod is too big to attach, so here: http://www.dos486.com/civ4/rbadv43-reverse.zip
Also here's a save if anyone wants to play it. I bumped the difficulty up to Monarch but it'll probably still be pretty easy. Small Pangaea map, unedited and unspoiled. I rolled starts until one came up that's coastal and with a commerce resource (else growth will be very slow.) It's Isabella again, who is still the best civ to use for the same reasons. Settling 1N on the wines will give 2 commerce to the city center square.
Sullla, apologies if I'm treading on any Epic to open this week.
But I think there's only minor interest in playing another game of this type, and it's a timely topic after the actual Adv 43 but not worth another full blown event. Feel free to post any reports or comments back to this thread.
