CTP2 already has great leaders and ddi before Civ3 was released IIRC, although they dont do much without a working veteran effect.Call to Power 2: Apolyton Edition - download the latest version (12th June 2011)

Probably the only way I could help at the moment is testing which is an importent part once the code starts getting changed! We musn't create more bugs than we fix!
Well the "who" is seems to be getting sorted but what about the "how"?
What software engineering model would be best to use etc? (ie requirements-design-testing-implementation cycle etc)
Who would decide and draw up the requirements of what we're going to change etc?Comment

Hit me if I am wrong but wasn’t strategic resources in the allex scenario.

Well, not quite. It was more, "only build elephants in these chosen (Indian) cities" If you could get hold of the settler and build a city next to (or even on top of) an elephant good, you still wouldn't be able to build elephants, since the cities that could were predetermined.Concrete, Abstract, or Squoingy?

Actually Strat resources can be implemented using a city-surrounding-tile-searcher function like the one i used in the city expansion code or the CityCollectingGood(city, good) (if it works) and make a unit/building/wonder only possible to be built in case of the presence of a certain good.Originally posted by Immortal Wombat

I thought on writting some code like this before but without a goo trade system we will never have those in a good level of strategy(if only they kept the CTP1 system at least). And thats why i never bothered."Kill a man and you are a murder.

Yeah, certainly. I actually did write quite a bit of code to that effect. I never used it because the AI hasn't a clue, and I don't think strategic resources are a particularly good addition to the game anyway.Concrete, Abstract, or Squoingy?

The Strategical Resources are an interesting concept but they are leading to one of the worst cheats in Civ3 where the AI sends settlers to colonize tiles holding Strategical Resources it don't have the tech required to spot.Originally posted by Immortal Wombat

No one else cares about AI fudging like you do Tamerlin... its a necessary evil for game challenge.
When we have real thinking machines, things like this won't be necessary.
Until then they are, unless you're playing checkers or something similar.Comment
