First off I'll say "WOW". I've had a look and this mod is a radical change that would make for some interestuing strategies.

I've just got one question -

I noticed you can't upgrade cities into metropoli and so forth. To me this seemed like a natural progression thingie.

Cheers,
Askan

Thanks askan!

I'd like to have the urban facilities upgradable, yes, but I'm not sure what's preventing it. The space ports are upgradable into distribution centers... let's see...

Ah, ok, I just needed to add Roman Numerals to them... I'll add that in the next patch. Thanks for prompting me to look into that!

oleg, yes you're quite right. Going through and tweaking all of the AI empires takes a lot of time, and the Last time I tried to touch all of them with unique changes was in 1.3. There are probably a number of other simple tweaks that would help them out, too. Thanks very much for taking the time to go through the AI setup files and adjusting them. I'll take a look and include in the next Version.

Why do the City thru Arcology have these abilities, but all set at 0?

Those have no effect. They exist because I made them by cut & paste from the Cultural Centers, which have more abilities that the smaller urban facilities do. If I removed those entries, I would have to re-number the later ones, which would have been a fair amount of work with no effect, except to avoid this point of confusion for people trying to figure out the files. So, I just replaced them with do-nothing abilities.

Ahh, ok. So basically, you were being lazy.
