base material/grain Modding

TerrainTypes.xml

Ok I found that and found TileYieldGrain <modifier>1.5 changed to 2 but I have notice that most don't have TileYieldMaterial.  I am wondering if I should add this to the terrain types that have Grain yield. ie,

<GameModifier InternalName="CityTileYield_Fertile">

<ModType>Resource</ModType>    

<Attribute>TileYieldGrain</Attribute>     

<Value>2</Value>      

<PerTurn>1</PerTurn>  

</GameModifier>

ADDING This below the above:

<GameModifier InternalName="CityTileYield_Fertile">

<ModType>Resource</ModType>   

<Attribute>TileYieldMaterial</Attribute>    

<Value>2</Value>      

<PerTurn>1</PerTurn> 

</GameModifier>

Think that will work?

Depends what you want to do with it. There are currently terrains that do not support cities at all, and some terrains that support cities if they have the right environment (barren/green/dark). If your goal is only to increase the amount of grain and material, just increase the numbers where they already exist.

Other than that, there are no guides or sure things. Time to start experimenting!

Funny you should say experiment. LOL.

I just did. I recommend only modding the LAND terrain.

I was able to get a general increase over all.

New game with YIELD values at 2 on LAND terrain gave me 5 grain/4 Material and 4/4 with the majority being 5/3 or 4/3 but I succeeded in getting a slight boost to base materials which was my goal without Overpowering it.

I will keep you posted on how it progress over several game starts.

Ok cool, I can get a fairly consistant and spread out 5-4, 5-3, 4-4 and 4-3 grain/material ratio. So looks like this is a win. Oh and I managed to get Clay to show up fairly regularly too. All things considered it is a good MODDING Day.

I ended up lowering the value from 2 back to 1.5 to even things out a bit more and still keep a challenge; seems to be working out.
