I knew I wasn't hallucinating when my first game of C3C had a corruption flavor more akin to my first game of (unpatched) Vanilla Civ than to a recent game of PTW.
For a moment, I had the feeling that the changes were actually by design -- and necessitated the increase in the OCN found in C3C -- but if the SPHQ actually increases corruption in communism, then I guess it is safe to say that this is a goof.

AI is still doing that. Here's a shot from my debug game.Originally posted by Arrian
The AI in PTW also used to build its FP close in, which Alexman notes is really bad in Conquests. So if the AI is still doing that... it's really getting screwed.
Which may help explain the "X" factor I couldn't put my finger on in my game we're talking about in the other thread.

Take that as a sample. The other Civ in the game also went for a close fp placement.Attached FilesAI:C3C Debug Game Report (Part1) :C3C Debug Game Report (Part2)

Was alexman as beta tester?The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

Good work Alexman. Bad result. I'm having a hard time deciding whether the FP thing or the anti-RCP factor is more ludicrous. On balance I think the anti-RCP snatches the award by a whisker.Comment

IIRC most people wanted to get rid of RCP. However, the way they fixed it was as bad as it was originally - now we'll just make sure NOT to put any cities at the same distance!Originally posted by Jamski

Don't be an ass Jamski...........not many would argue with an RCP nerf. But this is like nerfing an AK-47 by using a nuclear bomb on it. The 'solution' is hamfisted, and is actually worse than the problem.

Yes, but that is far worse. Just think how many 'natural' city placement schemes are adversely affected, especially since firaxian distances are rounded down.Originally posted by Panzer32

Sorry.Don't be an ass Jamski
I just get carried away on occasions like this. I felt the same when people complained that they couldn't plant and harvest forests for ever
And I never liked the FP idea anyway, so anything that stopsit being effective is good by me. More corruption, maybe the AI won't build soooooooo many units anymore.

Well it would only be the same as this 'fix' if they had removed IFE and replaced it with -100 shields for every forest chopped down.

Not sure about the paticlar fix, all they needed to do was something like
Changing from 1, 2 (tie), 2 (tie), 2 (tie), 3 to 1, 2 (tie), 2 (tie), 2 (tie), 5 would have fixed the exploit IMHO.
But 1, 5 (tie), 5 (tie), 5 (tie), 5 (tie) isn't unreasonable.
Guess I won't build any FP unless corruption rules are changed. I see no point in simply redisputing which cities are corrupted.1st C3DG Term 7 Science Advisor 1st C3DG Term 8 Domestic Minister
