This mod is kind of bad for two reasons:

First, it makes ski resorts essentially nonviable, as they can only be built by the ultra-expensive tycoon unit. Paying a thousand gold (or more!) for a single amenity is hard to justify in almost any case.

Second, the AI spams tycoons more than it should, and it usually has a dozen or so kicking around its land by the endgame. This costs the AI a ton of gold and adds a bunch of clutter to the map.

It'd be good if the mod creator could fix these issues. The first one would be easy enough, while I'm not sure if the second one is doable at all, outside of perhaps banning the AI from buying these units (which would probably be worthwhile, given how wasteful they are). Until then, I'd recommend people stay away from this mod.

@S-Mechno right, could you solve that problem? i love the two mods

@joshuamlux. I have the same problem. Do you have the JNR's Distrct Exp mod installed? I think problem is that the mod from JNR replaces vanilla workshop and tycoon cannot be purchased

I've got all monopoly mods installed, box checked in setup options, and yet i cannot build investors or tycoons. I got the technology, it does list tycoons and investors, so the mod is at least partially working. i've got both workshops and manufactories. heck, i'm now researching electricity. yet they are not purchasable or buildable. not sure if maybe its a mod conflict with another mod or what. suggestions?

@Podrax Only Tycoons can create Industries.

I have the same problem as Yommp, the builder's ability to create industries is just completely gone and therefore making this whole mod useless.

The text for not using the Monopoly mode is not working. Tycoons, Stations, Investors etc. only have their localization tags.
I fixed it by commenting line 38 of MonopolyPlus.modinfo: <Criteria>Monopolies_Mode</Criteria>, so the text file gets applied regardless.

help me understand, I like the idea of ​​this mod, additional opportunities for monopolies and corporations, but I'm surprised that the earliest productions are moved so far into the future, when indeed, the first beginnings of production could have appeared earlier

Is this mod working?

Does this mod work with custom resource mods?

Auditor General doesn't do anything for me either.

The AI just BURNS their money spamming these units and not using them. These need to be addressed as it gives the AI a crippling disadvantage late game.

Tycoon requires manufactory, not a workshop

Reyna's promotion doesn't do anything. Tycoons cost the same as in another city and there's no bonus yield for nearby corporations.

Solution

INSERT INTO Unit_BuildingPrereqs
(Unit, PrereqBuilding)
SELECT 'UNIT_LEU_TYCOON', BuildingType
FROM Buildings WHERE BuildingType = 'BUILDING_JNR_DRAGON_KILN';

I think this is probably a mod conflict because I don't remember it happening before, but in my current game Tycoons can only build Industries... on tiles owned by the city where (and when) you bought the Investor. Or is that working as intended?

Reading the SQL files for this mod, I understood that there very many other tech prerequisites. The units appear very latter in the game. All these requirements are prefixed with "_AI_", so I don't know if the author wanted to restrict these to AI players and some other bug / mod compatibility issue prevents me from doing so.

Anyway, I cheated my way through the tech tree to test it and voilá, the units appear in the production list.

i also use Unit List Enforcement, and I suspect there may be an incompatibility (that mod changes building requirements).

anyone have this problem? im using monoply ++ and T6 eras and units, but the tycoon unit isnt showed to be bought

Anyone else having an issue using this mod in multiplayer? The 2nd player using an investor to claim a resource, creates the transnational company improvement, but the owner is the host, not the player who paid for the investor unit.

can you please update it because the name things are buged

@Zyxpsilon
Yea, I thought about that, but would really rather just have multiple industries in the same city so I don't have to resource share.

@ctcatuga
You could always use a nearby city to re-assign any of the extra luxury tiles and create new Tycoon(s) in that city, try it!

I'm not sure if this exists in this mod or elsewhere, but this seems to be the best place to ask given the nature of the mod:

Is there an option in this mod or separate mod altogether that allows for a city to have 2 different luxury resource industry improvements? I have a city in one game that is surrounded by 2 sets of 3 different luxury resources (spawned naturally, I didn't cheat place them), but I can only build 1 industry improvement, and I would love to put one on all 3!

I had trouble getting tycoons to show up until I realised they require a manufactory not a workshop to be purchased

The Ai is dumping all their money into investors, Could there be a unit cap for the ai? Thank you

Yes I'm having the same problem with not getting the tycoon.

Unfortunately this is not working. Using this mod disables the builder's ability to create industries. Doesn't even show up as an option in the improvement table. Other civs can do it, and they can use the tycoons too... lucky

I'm having several issues. The warehouse doesn't always give the extra trade route (it happened when I built it next to a city built on the top of a luxury), the yield to the trade route the city state with the warehouse doesn't change and the corporation doens't get the extra 5 gold.
Maybe it's a conflict although I doubt it since this is my only real gameplay mod, the other ones are UI mods.

@1392259576 you can find the syntax error in the following file:
monopolyPlus_units.sql in line 341 ... U have to delete the "(" there ... than save!

Does this make Portugal's Feitorias kinda useless as a unique improvement?

in the MonopolyPlus_Units.sql have a syntax near "(", but i couldn't find the "(". it make me upset. there are any way to find it?

Reyna truly does not give a discount.

@ZuryMcFlapjack where do you find those files?

Reyna does not give a discount to tycoons and investors. In all other cities, the purchase price is the same as in her city.

My gratitude to @ZuryMcFlapjack !

not compatible with Unique Building: Dragon Kiln (China) is a sorrow

Thanks ZuryMcFlapjack for the info!

PS....
If you want to restore the tycoon units Workshop prerequisite, all you have to do is go into monopolies_units.sql and UNCOMMENT OUT the lines that add the workshop prerequisite and it will work properly.

If you want the mod to work as the author intended where the Tycoon unit is liberated from it's building prerequisite while using JNR's industries expanded, open the JNR compatibility sql file and COMMENT OUT or delete the lines of code that add the manufactury as a building prerequisite and......

VOI LA! Mod fixed to your preference....

***ANYONE WHO CANNOT PURCHASE TYCOONS WITH JNR MOD LISTEN UP***

It is not as it seems. These mods work perfectly fine together. The author of this mod updated it at one point and removed the workshop building prerequisite from the tycoon unit. HOWEVER, when you turn on JNR industrial zone expansion, this mod reads a compatibility file that adds JNR's manufactury building as a prerequisite. If you build a manufactury you CAN purchase the tycoon unit.

For anyone having my issue: it worked like a charm, 2 build charges on those tycoons now.

Furthermore, costs seem to be increased 4x. Maybe because of gold deflation mod? Anyway, tweaking the numbers at cost and cost increase in the SQL file worked perfectly fine, for both Tycoon and Investor.

I have a workshop in several cities... but can't purchase a Tycoon. I can purchase an Investor now that Economics has been discovered.. but still no Tycoon. Must be the Industry Expansion by JNR... as I also have that.

Oh and adding insult to injury, to cost for the second one rose to 1250, instead of the +35 gold scaling it seems that it is supposed to have.

Are Tycoons supposed to be this expensive? My *first* one cost me 1000 gold. For a mid game purchase, and necessary to build ski resorts (one by one, too), I find that way too much. Especially when playing alongside gold deflation and City Lights.

One fix I could see, if this is intended, would be to increase their build charges to 2 instead of just 1. Of course that's just my opinion, so if I wwant to do that myself:

Do I just change this 1 into a 2 without breaking anything?
/*BuildCharges*/ 1,

(To be added, the line above indicates a base cost of 250, so this might have been a bug. Playing with JNR 6T project as wwell as some other mods, fyi)

LMAO I just noticed. The Ai has Tycoons, and I don't have them available from this bug/Unintended feature.

I cannot buy Tycoons, even after researching the required techs (Mass Production & Printing) as well as after building a workshop (JNRs District Expanded: Industries Workshop).

After testing, the issue is definitely with JNR District Expanded: Industry. When this mod checks if a workshop has been built, it does not look for JNRs workshop, only the vanilla workshop.

@Leugi Is there anything you can do about the desyncs?

It works again. Thanks. A reminder, unsubscribe and subscribe again just to make sure,

Great mod, but I've run into an issue where I'm unable to buy tycoons when playing as China. Other players in the same game are able to buy tycoons. I'm playing with some other mods as well, such as civilizations expanded and some of JNR's mods. I suspect the issue might be related to JNR's dragon kiln mod that gives China a unique dragon kiln building that replaces the workshop/manufactory. Despite having built dragon kilns and being far enough along the tech tree, I can't buy any tycoons.

Same issue about Corporations not having the option showing up with investors to build on industries. Looking through potential mod conflicts right now

The reason of the issue not create corporations by investors is the mod Happy Districts - Appeal Rebalanced. There are needed disable the mod Happy Districts - Appeal Rebalanced
