Radiant Unique Tile Improvements

This mod enhance and balance Civilization Exclusive Tile Improvements by making them much stronger, but also with way harder prereqs meaning they will be a lot more difficult to place. Because of Alpha Version this mod might not be well balanced (resulting mostly a willignly bit overpowered unique Improvements).

THIS MOD IS AT ALPHA VERSION : Some minor bugs can subsist and balance won't be on page : modded improvements as they are with this mod tend to be willingly a bit overpowered. I am still working on these two points, looking to nerf some of them within several steps ... but still, you can (gently & politely) give me your opinion if you have a bad feeling about something for the mod's future final version (only if you understood the mod's goal : meaning you have to read the rest of this description if you want to speak).



I never liked the way we spam unique improvements in this game the same way a rabbit let sh*t ball garlands out of his butt. I also don't like the fact we almost don't care about their placement. I want them to be rare, i want human player to make a relatively long thinking to find the right emplacement for them because they are not regular improvements.

I totally get why Civ players don't want World Wonders requiring hard terrain prereqs : Because you have to compete for it with other players, and the time you spend to find a location for them is crucial. But for unique improvements, you have time to think, time to search, because there is only you and your improvement prereqs. I personnaly would love the fact to be awarded of a greater bonus if i had complete a harder prereq spot.

With my mod, improvements Effect power will be strongly dependant of how much i made prereqs hard to validate. So, don't yell at me because one is weaker than another : the harder prereq is, the less likely you will succeed to find a spot, the less of unique improvement there will be in your territory, and thus, the most powerful they need to be. For instance i can't give greatwall the same bonus power as for Chateau.

In all cases without any exception, build these modded unique improvement will be by far the best thing you can do with a tile. I was really mad at some vanilla unique improvements which could even be far inferior to basic improvements (yes for instance you my dear chateau !) I wanted player to be sure he doesn't screw anything up by building these cool littles guys.

- All improvements but Great Wall, Colossal Heads and Kampung can not be built next to the same improvement.

- Minimum appeal and harder terrain prereqs making them harder to build.

- A base game improvement is around +3 / +5 past modern era which you can add the bonus provided by the resource under it (sometimes reaching +9 and more in total). So i think an unique improvement has the right to be around +4 for base, and might evolve to +7 and may be more with far harder conditions.

- A new reason to settle near unpopular terrains like desert since a good number of my unique improvements require them.

- Heavy documentation on wikipedia to fix realism issues, or make their yield more realistic.

- Some improvements doesn't have to be within 3 tiles of the city to give you advantages or yields. Many of them now have effect affecting adjacent tiles or all city tiles.

- Some of them might even give you the idea to terraform city's terrains (making you using your builders / engineers even more).



This mod only work when a whole new game is created while activated and can't work fully on already existing saves. Sorry it couldn't be avoidable. (It actually can work if you add the famous line in the modinfo but i don't advise it for this mod integrity)

This mod is meant to be compatible with most of the existing mods (has been tested with 150+ of my mods). Though if you have a problem, you can notice me if you need help to fix it manually.



You can find all my mods by searching "Radiant" in steam workshop, nexus, or civfanatics, which is a recurrent word in all my mod's tittles.

Even if they represent hundreds of working hours, I'm sharing my mods for free like most of mod creators. But deep down I'm really hoping you to do that little extra thing that would help me a lot : joining any of my pages (patreon, facebook, instagram). Just that really! Don't feel obliged to give something, with Patreon there is indeed a free option that grants you basic news/content and it will only take few seconds of your time. That being said I'm an artist irl and I sometimes struggle to put my personal projects on the saddle. By giving a little something or joining my ranks you can trigger a course of actions/reactions that might end up gathering more people around, thus helping me building the motivation and means to create more stuff to appreciate.
