Default Re: Image mod question

Interesting concepts all the way around.
A limitation with MAP things (which is what I mostly do) is that there is no way to have changes occur partway thru the game.

Hmmm if a mod is checked/used thruout the game then some sort of turn recognition command might be feasable. (at this point Johan O is either humming thoughtfully, or cringing at the thought)

Not only the seasonal thing (kewl idea) but if any sort of AI modifys get worked out then that could get very interesting. I still would like to someday see something where the methods of the AI could be suddenly drastically randomly moved in a new direction mid-game.

That external turn watcher can work. I can think of a number of ways to have it swap mod-file Versions at a turn count. It could even randomly decide between various mods.
