Shouldn't Pottery still be a requirement for sailing? The invention of pottery is what allowed for long distance naval travel.

Maybe it could increase gold yield and food yields by +1 from fishing boats.

So here's a thought for fishing tech. I saw a mod that built off this one and created a fishing pond building which obviously gets built in cities. However I was thinking what if when you research fishing technology certain river/marsh tiles reveal fish. Then the civ can build a fishing pond improvement on the tile, much like the Dutch can build Polders. Instead of draining the land for farmland though this would flood the land and turn it into a fish farm. I have no clue how to mod or I'd tackle this myself

pottery did lead to sailing, it allowed water and food to be taken to sea, while it also alowed for fish and other things to be taken to and fro via the sea.

Finally, no weird concept of pottery leading to sailing...

I think it would be a good idea for you to somehow add in to this mod that Pre-Fishing Coast and Ocean tiles would give no yields, because obviously they haven't learned how to get food from water yet. I think it would add more urgency to get the Tech instead of getting it when you eventually expand to an ocean resource. Just my 2 cents :CapitalDome::D:

Hey, Zakii; thank you very much for bringing this to my attention! I updated the Fish resource's "TechCityTrade" value to Fishing. The tooltip text is fixed now as well and should display things correctly. : )

Hey, not sure if you're aware but while the tech allows for fishing boats to be created the improvement hasn't been changed to link the luxury resources to your trade network. I don't think it's a problem with the mod, but the improvement's prerequisite use has to be changed to be able to be used during this tech, not Sailing. It'd be great if you could fix it, but I understand if not.
