When editing the XML files to include 2 new buildings, something really weird happened.
I used the code to make the 2 new buildings require a certain number of previously built buildings, using the same code from the Cathedrals. Well... The magic number in the xml file is "2". I figured, "Maybe it counts 0, 1, 2" and just used 2 for my new buildings.
Well... Those buildings only require 2 of the listed prerequisite buildings to exist. Okay, that makes sense. However, so do all of the cathedrals. They no long require 3 temples, they require only 2. I did not change this part of the file at all! Are the XML files slightly different from the default game values?
