Harder Era

Description
Too easy to get Golden Age? Want more challenge? You want to try Dark Age but literally anything can put you in Normal Age? This mod is there to make your life (and your citizen's) harder!

* All Historic Moments' Era Score rewards are decreased by 1.
* For score rewards already at 1, some are kept and some do not give you score anymore. List below.
* The Taj Mahal is now even greater, as it now rewards +2 extra Score instead of 1.

Moments that still REWARD 1 Era Score:
- First large size city (10, 15, 20, 25).
- First Civic and Tech in new era.
- First Governor with full promotion and first time recruiting all Governors.
- Inquisition launched.
- First unit with 4 promotions (No longer rewards for later units).
- Killing unit higher formation unit.
- City built near floodable river, volcano.
- First time improving a tile improved by natural disaster.
- Found Natural Wonder.

Moments that NO LONGER REWARD Era Score:
- Extract Artifacts (first Shipwreck still rewards 2/3 Score).
- Build city near other civ's city.
- City built on Desert/Snow/Tundra.
- First form Armada/Army/Corp/Fleet (you still receive 1 Era Score for being first in the world).
- Activate Goody Hut/Tribal Village.
- Recruit Great Person (using Gold/Faith for more than half progress still reward 2).
- Found Pantheon (still get 1 for being first in the world).
- Levy Military (still get 1 for levying near enemy city).
- Meet other major Civ (still get scores for meeting all other major civs).
- Spy Max level (still get score for first one).
- Construct Trading Post in other Civ cities (still get scores for constructing in all major civs).
- First creating unit with strategic resource (still get scores for being first in the world).
- Unit with 4 promotions (still get scores for first one).
- Mitigate Coastal/River flood (I am not sure if this one is in the game, I never actually see them).
- Earn Diplomatic Victory Point.

Can you make a slight variant of this mod where everything rewards one less era score but you haven't removed era score from all the things that no longer reward era score?

Will there be a difficulty version that makes the eras shorter? Much needed for marathon games, since I don't get to witness the full power of the secret societies, and heroes are weaklings compared to units I get from blitzing the techs; they're still good for utility tho.

why not just change the threshold instead?

This mod still legit?

Thank you for the repy. :) It sounds like a great mod if you are using the super slow mods with 2, 3 or 5 times the cost of techs and civics. Very easy to get a golden age with things slowed down so much and all that time to add up points.

I myself am not using this mod but judging from the code, should be fine.

This works with Sept 10th update, yes?

Yeah, I get the situation I had was a bit of an outlier. Thanks for the pointer about mod-modding, though :D

yes it's intended. Originally it gave you 3 Era Points, which is now reduced by to 2. I think it's worth noting without other mod, it's not easy to get that moment. If you want to remove that one too, please add this line to the mod file harderera.sql:

UPDATE Moments SET EraScore = 0 WHERE MomentType = 'MOMENT_UNIT_KILLED_UNDERDOG_PROMOTIONS';
