Description

If you like my mod, please like it on up side, it will be a great encouragement to me.

"Along the way, there are many pits in the ground, known as Karez, which can divert water to flow horizontally. From south to north, the water is gradually drawn up and rises, running through holes in the earth??赯?truly unimaginable feat. The fields here are rich and fertile, producing an incalculable amount of cotton every year, all thanks to the irrigation from the Karez." - Lin Zexu

Karez, or kan'erjing in Chinese, is reputed as one of the three major construction projects in ancient China, together with the Great Wall and the Grand Canal. [NEWLINE] Karez is mainly distributed in Turpan, Hami and Helei districts in Xinjiang, where Turpan District is reputed as the place with the most karez (more than 1,000). The annual discharge of karez in Turpan totals 29.4 billion cubic meters, irrigating the vast farmlands in the region all year round. Linked together, the total length of these karez would exceed 5,000 kilometers. Thus, karez is also dubbed the "underground canal".

Just wanted to notify you that this wonder shares the same BuildingType entry (BUILDING_KAREZ) with the Karez building from the 'Diverse City Center Buildings' mod by D (originally from Harmony in Diversity), thus causing a mod conflict (I didn't install your mod yet, but using D's mod with JNR's Grand Eras causes the building to move to a later tech).

Considering their mod came out earlier (and I don't know if they still actively maintain it), maybe you could change the BuildingType (to something like BUILDING_ITHILDIN_KAREZ for example) to something more unique?
