Any chance of getting a mod that does the same thing but for culture? I really love this mod, and would love to see something similar for that.

Love this mod! I always felt it didn't make sense to snowball specially since international trade is a thing and in real life yes there are some countries that are still way behiond on science, but in general with international trade that means people in europe, asia, americas etc have access to technology. SO it didn't make sense to me for one civ to be in the modern era with nukes etc, but then have a smaller 1 city civ still in the stone age...while having trade routes..... this mod makes it so much more realistic.

Are you expecting me to remember by heart every line of code I have written in my life? Are you kidding?

your mod........... you're the one who added TotalScience on your code.. how would I know what it means and what it do......

What do you mean by totalScience?

Hey mate, how can I make the penalty severe? Im already on 9 City, generating 95 science while the AI still generates 20...

I increase the city threshold to 8, how about totalScience? do I need to set it more to get more penalized? I know AI are affected by it too but right now they're below 8 city.

A version for culture would be very nice.

Alright, I tested it and it works like a charm. Thanks again for responding so quickly and fixing it right away. There are certainly way too many dead mods in the Workshop. This ain't one of them.

Thank you for the quick response. I'll test it out right away.
