Terrain - Kasbah Extension

Description
This mod extend the ability to build the improvement : Kasbah, to every civilization.

Accordingly, a unique building has been added to Morocco civilization:
'The Riad', wich replaces the Garden.


Heres some infos:

'A Riad is a traditional Moroccan house with an interior garden or courtyard. The word riad comes from the Arabian term for garden, 'ryad'. The riads were inward focused, which allowed for family privacy and protection from the weather in Morocco. '


Features:
  • Make the 'Kasbah' improvement available to workers from any civilization

  • A Kasbah cannot be built adjacent to another Kasbah. This adjustment was necessary for game balance, so that Kasbah wouldnt totally replace other basic improvement since its not a unique improvement anymore and also to adjust AI behavior with the improvement.

  • Adjust the Morocco civilization so they have a unique building just like other civilizations.

  • The Above historical info and all the new unique building info have been added to civilopedia (see screenshot)

  • The AI will use the Kasbah, the unique building is also properly flavored, meaning the AI will use it correctly and your advisors will recommend it.

Notes:
    This game has always mixed civilization culture, history and flavors in a fictional way. You can play a viking whose capital is in the African desert and who spawn a great merchant named Steve Job. Why not do it with terrain improvement too?
    The majority of the civ have a unique unit and a unique building anyway, I think that making terrain improvement a generic content offer more choice of customization for your cities and produce enjoyable landscape instead of boring cities full of farm or mines. Thats the point of all these 'Improvements Extensions' mods.

Compatibility:
  • Requires Brave New World Expansion

Well, don't work for me, maybe a conflict with another mod, polder, terrace farm and chateau works fine!

@lallportcohoon, thanks. That worked.

hey bluecolorlike, I'm pretty sure if you go into the XML file all you have to do is:

1) find this line

<Set SpecificCivRequired="NULL" CivilizationType="NULL" NoTwoAdjacent="true" Help="TXT_KEY_CIV5_IMPROVEMENTS_KASBAHX_HELP"/>

2) change <NoTwoAdjacent="true"> to "false"

Blou2 can correct me if I'm wrong, but that's all I could find.

Can you make a version without the building next to it limitation?

UPDATE V.3

-Reverted the Kasbah back to original stats and balanced it (and the AI behavior) by adding a requirement to the building condition of Kasbah instead. A kasbah now cannot be built adjacent to another Kasbah.

-This change will also make sure the Yield value are extracted from the base game, so if firaxis make some change to the improvement, this mod will be automaticly affected.
