Great Tile improvements connect luxuries

glad to help!

@Willy-Thank you for taking the time to explain it.

You can place a citadel on luxury resources outside your borders to claim them. However, for other special improvements, I believe you should build them on luxury resources within your workable range, like placing a Customs House on sugar two tiles away from a city to earn more gold instead of building a Plantation for +1g +1f. If there is a silver mine four tiles away, you should build a regular mine there instead of a Manufactory.
Of course, you can continue using the original improvements and let your great people do more important things; I think it depends on the game's situation.

Considering this is a rules change, the AI can use this too, but they seem won‘t use it proactively. The only situation I've seen was when a malicious AI built a citadel on the border and accidentally claimed a luxury resource.

Thank you for your response! Let me try to explain: (please forgive my translated English)
This mod adds these special improvements into a list named "Improvement_ResourceTypes," allowing them to extract luxury resources from the tiles they are built on. So you're right; building a holy site on a wine tile could get your prophet quite drunk!

As for the other issue, I believe you shouldn't be able to build these improvements outside your borders (except for the citadel). And if "border" refers to tiles beyond the 3-tile range of a city, then just like in the normal game, you won't receive bonuses from improvements that don't have a worker working them.

@willy (mod author)-I'm trying to understand what this mod does.
So if you build a facility (citadel, holy site, etc.) from your special unit (general, prophet, etc.) over a luxury, that luxury is then added to your list, am I correct?

If so and you capture a luxury outside your border, won't you lose the bonus you get from workers working those facilities (+X gold from Customs House for example)?

Seems like a greater loss in the long run if you consider the worker facility bonus in borders vs a simple luxury acquired.

Could you maybe gives good examples of when how this mod gives the player an advantage? Can/will the AI civs use this?

@paintedweasels
Maybe one of mod in your bundle added the feature?
I bought all DLC too and only played bnw, also had checked game codes so I'm sure these improvements can only connect strategic resources.
After all, I made this mod only because I found out that nothing I can get but hatred after building a citadel on neighbor's ivory.

Thanks!

This is beautiful, thank you so much!

I've been founding my cities on top of, and making these improvements on luxury and strategic tiles for years now and always get the resource when I do, do you have all the DLC? maybe one of them added the feature, I've always had the bundle so i don't know why
