Modify the Map Resources

[Chicagophil]

Not sure if this is this is the right area, but is there a way or DOCs on this site that shows how to edit the map resources, world wonders, unit stats, or building stats?

Thanks

Ctrl-W will open the world editor. It starts with two icons highlighted, the right of these icons is the terrain icon. Hit that and another box will open that allows you to change terrain types, add bonuses etc.

Thanks, I understand that.

i was curious about changing a Food map tile to be +5 food instead of +1 or +2. Or raising a battleship damage from 40 to 60...

Things like that...

Go into the XML. ProgramFolder/Assets/XML/Units or /Buildings, etc.

XML is your friend Browse around in the files in the xml directory, you'll see how almost everything in the game is determined. I suggest you use something more complex than a text editor - either find a copy of Altova XML Spy Home Edition or something on those lines, or even use Excel if you're desperate.

If you're not familiar with XML, it basically looks like this:
< tag > blah blah < /tag >
where 'tag' is the thing that it's defining and 'blah blah' is the definition, a word or a number. 1 is true 0 is false when it's a true-false type thing (like 'promition'). If the tag has an i in front of it it's an integer value (so iFood is the amount of food, a whole number), a b in front is a true/false (so bUseEnemyRoads is either 1 (yes can use) or 0 (can't)), etc.

There are some good tutorials out there, just look around
