The only thing I don't understand is why the Max Unit XP cheat was removed. That actually worked just fine.
Any chance that might be put back in?
If you take a look at the XML files in .../assets/Gameplay/XML you can generally find workarounds for some of the missing trainer options. For example, using Russia I was able to work around the Max XP option by doing the following:
1) Find 'BUILDING_KREPOST' in CIV5Buildings.xml in assets/Gameplay/XML/Buildings
2) Look for the block:
3) Change the 'Experience' number to however much experience you want to be added to the unit, and repeat for 'DOMAIN_SEA' and 'DOMAIN_AIR'
Because the Krepost is a special building limited only to Russians I can be sure that other civilizations won't get the same benefit (so long as you don't play against another Russia) and the Krepost can be built after researching only 2 technologies. This is just an example, but the XML files make it easy to modify the game to your liking (I also UNfixed the Helicopter Gunships being able to capture cities...)
I guess I'll have to take a closer look at the xml files. Thanks for the info.
Too many updates and too many complaints. Take your pick. No plans to bring back any of the removed options.
Well, that's too bad. The only options I seemed to have trouble with are the "Remove Unit Damage" and Policy Points. The Remove Unit Damage option never seemed to work, and the Policy Points Option only works on the first turn, and never after that. Now, I have an AMD CPU, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not. I know that sometimes, programs written on one brand of CPU will react differently on another brand.
As for the plethora of patches that Steam has come out with, I too, am greatly disappointed. The thing that puzzles me is I had set my game to NOT update, yet it did, for some reason install the hotfix. A fix MY game didn't need. So basically, I blame Steam for this.
It would be nice to have a policy cheat that worked past the first turn. Any chance that is going to happen?
Policy cheat does work past turn one. However, it doesn't work while in a golden age. Once golden age is over, the policy cheat works again.
Thank you Wizard.
You guys are very quick, I thought it would be here in a couple of days.
