[eMOD][version 0.5]Wonder Bases

from Elemental Forums

This mod allows everyone to build a minor faction wonder and can upgrade to the real wonder. The minor faction wonder doesn't provide the same great effect of the actual wonder, but this allows those who want to win the I can build it faster than you achievement in wonder building.

The minor faction wonder costs 90% of the old wonder and the upgrade is the rest of the 10% value. So, in essence you can still build the wonder in the same amount of time as you could before.

Note: There will be no notification that you finished your wonder base, and there is a little micromanagement involved here.

Forgive my ignorance, but what does it mean winning the "I can build it faster than you achievement"? O:)

People wanted to race to build a wonder and didn't like the fact that when I build a wonder it is removed from everyone's que. I may be slow to research it, but I will out build it when I finally do research it. Sooo I can build the wonder faster than you is possible in with this mod.

Oh! I have to recognise that I did not know that fact. I am a bit embarrassed ^_^'

Good work Parrottmath! :thumbsup:

Will the AI understand how to do this?

Very good idea!   k1   I don't suppose there's any way to mod in a global notification when a faction starts building the precursor?

Another win for Parrotmath!


Out of curiosity, what would happen if you were to conquer another faction's city that currently housed one of these wonder bases? Is there a possible exploit here in being able to build a duplicate copy of the wonder?

What happens to the wonder base if someone else completes the wonder? Does it just sit there taking up space?

Thanks

I keep the same rating and doubled the AI rating for the upgrade.

No, look at the tower of dominion, otherwise it is a dev bug I can't fix. There can only be 1 wonder ever :).
