@fiflakowski, I think this is what you want:

--Removes 1 food yield from grassland and plains tiles.
UPDATE Terrain_YieldChanges
SET YieldChange = YieldChange - 1
WHERE YieldType = 'YIELD_FOOD'
AND (TerrainType = 'TERRAIN_GRASS'
OR TerrainType = 'TERRAIN_GRASS_HILLS'
OR TerrainType = 'TERRAIN_PLAINS'
OR TerrainType = 'TERRAIN_PLAINS_HILLS');

If you add that SQL statement to the bottom of Terrain_YieldChanges.sql, it should reduce the food yield of all grassland and plains tiles by 1. You need an UPDATE instead of an INSERT because grassland and plains tiles already have food yields.

If you want to experiment with the game's configuration more, the sqlite database files are stored at C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\Cache on my machine. I assume that location is standard for Civ VI on Windows. You can use a tool like SQLiteSpy to read the configuration that Civ VI set the last time you loaded a game.

Hello,

question:

If I wanted to d e c r e a s e certain yields, would I have to add, e.g.
('TERRAIN_GRASSLAND', 'YIELD_FOOD', -1);
('TERRAIN_PLAINS', 'YIELD_FOOD', -1);

etc.?

I know nothing about coding and I don't want to break the game.

But what I want is to make farms the only way to get decent amounts of food and slow cities from developing so fast.

Desert becomes broken OP with this

Desert is too barren with a lot less resources..
Besides, if you don't like it, go change it in the .xml. simple

science to ozean and snow is perfect.
1 gold to tundra also makes sense in a way

but desserts offering gold is to much, it makes gold dessert civs even stronger, and doesn't make much sense, also culture kind of makes dessert civs stronger, which are already pretty strong.. i think IF anything it should give faith? I know it also buffs the dessert civs, but faith is FAR less impactful than culture or gold.

Hi, I like this idea, can this mod be used with "Better Desert, Snow, and Tundra Tiles" ?
thanks

Pretty decent of ya

I updated it. This mod was fine as is, but mods now need to specify compatibility for each new version of the game.
SSS-class Warlock 15 Feb, 2019 @ 1:57pm 
Good man, the update would make my Civ-5-experience quite a bit better and surely about 1000 others think similarly. This is a good mod you made there and I appreciate your work spent on it. Whether you update it or not, you're the man

ay fuckin lmao, id say its sorta worth but its pretty damn buggy. tho ur mod makes shit tiles worth settling
Evan (Doomturtle)  [author] 14 Feb, 2019 @ 8:33pm 
I am waiting a few days before buying Gathering Storm to make sure that it is worth buying. If I do buy it, then I will definitely update this mod.
The Lolita Express 14 Feb, 2019 @ 12:54am 
yo update the mod for gathering storm plz

Idefix 1 Sep, 2018 @ 4:56am 
hm....not bad

Great mod. Now I actually have a reason to settle on desert tiles.
IcedCoffeeWithHalfnHalf 27 Aug, 2018 @ 5:23pm 
But seriously making deserts great for something more than alluminum dumps and air bases makes this a cool mod

Early game coastal city FTW
