Hi,
I want to make a cheat mod for myself (for single player Crusades 2.71), basically add Ultra Terraformer improvement with unlimited uses (would like to build my empire tall in endgame). This building should be available to player faction only. How would I do that? Is there some prerequisite, like NonAI/IsPlayer or something.
If not, could I create some kind of special trait and check for that (assuming I'm using custom race with this trait).
I'm completely new to modding, so please use layman's terms.
Edit:
My current solution - made a new "Climate Adjuster" ability as requirement for "Endless Terraforming" improvement, so far so good.
Few gripes though:
I would very much like to remove old "Ultra Terraforming" if race has "Climate Adjuster" ability. I had to actually copy whole ImprovementDefs.xml file to my mod, just to modify one existing building. Copying "Ultra Terraforming" into my mod file makes a copy, not modifying existing one.
Also I would have liked to modify ability point count for custom races, but I had to copy whole GalCiv3GlobalDef.xml file for this to work.
All this copying existing files business is making mod incompatible with almost anything, even new updates to base game have to be monitored.
Thanks
