No Barbarian XP Cap

Description
Removes the soft cap on combat with Barbarians after gaining one promotion.
The soft cap is the limit after gaining 1 promotion that restricts XP gains from combat with barbarians to 1 XP point per combat.

NOTE: This mod doesn't entirely work as intended. It makes barbarians give more xp than they should based on the opposing units xp modifer (barracks, armory, etc)

I may get round to fixing that at some point, but I'm leaving it like that for now. So be aware, it's a little broken. The AI gains the same benefit as the player, though.

It should work with Gathering Storm now. I updated it yesterday.

I can't get it to work either on it's own or with other mods, I've directly modded the files now tho, so a moot point. Re: Shoottothrills comment, the lack of barb camps etc is a vanilla issue. Not 100% on duplication of the bug, seems to occur more on large/huge maps than smaller on various era speeds.

I haven't experienced that in testing. Are you using any other mods?

Anybody not getting barbarian spawns at all when using this mod?

Doesn't work with GS at all.

It's working now.

I had already removed all other custom mods, but this time I disabled both expansions (R&F and GS) and went back to vanilla. Re-enabled No Barbarian XP Cap mod, started new game, verified it worked. Re-enabled R&F expansion, started new game, verified it worked. Re-enabled GS expansion, started new game, and verified... it worked.

Sooo, I'll guess I'll just leave this here in the off chance it may help someone out. Assuming I'm not just going crazy.

Hmmm... Weird, ok, I'm now able to start a new game using the Gathering Storm ruleset with the mod enabled, but it doesn't work. Units only get +1 XP after their first promotion. Is this just me, also?

It is working fine for me .

Just wanted to point out that if you do check the "ignore warning" checkbox and re-enable the mod, it disables the Gathering Storm expansion -- that is, you wont be able to start a new game using the Gathering Storm ruleset.

You can still play Standard and Rise and Fall rulesets with the mod enabled, however, just not Gathering Storm.

Good to know. I'll hopefully get some time to update it soon.
