[Mod] A proper score graph

[ulfn]

I agree that some of the colors are very similar. To add to the confusion the colors doesn't quite match the color of the text in score display of the main screen.

The only thing is that I'm not sure where the legend would fit. Top-left corner seems like the best bet, but with many civs and the graph zoomed in it'll probably overlap.

Anyway, I'll see what I can do.

Ok, here's what I came up with:



As I suspected it does overlap with the graph sometimes, but I don't think it's a big problem.

Great, thanks!

Thanks!

It keeps getting better and better

I finally got time to test the mod, but it doesn't work for me

In the game I can't open the info screen, clicking on the button does nothing, pressing F9 minimizes the game

ulfn, you are the freakin' man! You've solved what's been the bane of this game since Civ 3. Your graph is so much more understandable than the shipped version. Firaxis should bow their heads before you, or at least hire you! Your graph puts theirs to shame, and they've had six years to work on it!

I tested it, and it works with saved games, other mods, and saves from other mods. Great work!

First check that:
(a) You have upgraded to v1.09.
(b) You downloaded the correct version of the mod (psg1_4.zip)

If it still doesn't work check My Documents\My Games\Civ 4\Logs\PythonErr2.log and post any error messages you can find.

Ahh, I didn't see it was for v1.09 only, then I guess I'll wait a little (sounds like the patch only makes things worse)

You can download version 1.1 which works with pre 1.09. It has a few minor glitches, but nothing serious.

thanks

what other great ideas are you considering

[ulfn]

Well.. I'm gonna polish the score graph a bit. Other than that I don't have any grand plans at the moment. If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears

How about working on the religious and civic tab next, adding more details at the bottom for religious/civic changes on your total gold/research/hammers per turn.

[ulfn]

Actually I've already done some work (which I haven't released) on the religion screen. I haven't added any information, though, just put all the cities in a table to make it easier to see which cities have what religions.
As to adding the information you're looking for, which I agree would be really nice, I'm not sure exactly how to do it. The only way I can see at the moment is to force change the civics/religion, get the information and then change back. I'd have to try it out to see if it works.

On a different topic, the polishing of the score graph is progressing nicely. I've moved the silly demographics table to a tab of its own to make more room for the graph, and added some nice features to the graph. I'll release it shortly.

I don't know if it's what ghen is talking about but the religion screen already shows the changes that would occur when you mouseover the given religions. You may have to wtch closely because if you have two religions in a city and change from one religion to another you still get the same bonuses. The bonuses and such don't change, just which city gets them.
