Noob question : how do you mod 1500 gold and 10 gems of each type for a nation ?
I can't find anything on that in the map and mod .pdf, or in the manual...

It would be fine if I could do some tests ^^

[CUnknown]

Crap.. I have never done this before. I was assuming it was relatively easy (which was a mistake!). There aren't any mod commands for it?

[Foodstamp]

Nope.

[Tuidjy]

You can mod the nation's starting sites, can't you? I.e. if you want to give Ulm
an extra 100 resources, you mod the Forges of Ulm.

[Rathar]

Huh that would be a bit odd if you couldn't somehow as I know you can give specific spells, magic items and units

[CUnknown]

Aha, Tuidjy is smart. I will mod the three Neutrals so that their starting site has +50 resources, +30 gold per turn, and +1 astral pearls per turn.

After 50 turns, they would get 50 astral pearls and 1500 gold from this bonus. Not quite the same bonus as they were supposed to get, but it should help them out.

However, the problem being, that anyone who conquers a Neutral will be able to get this bonus.

Any suggestions as to what we should do?

[Rathar]

I think this is a good way of trying to achieve your original intent but with resources already at 125% I don't think that boosting them matters much.

I would at least double the gold and gems however.

Thats my 2 cents anyways.

The neutrals have an uphill task in this game. I'd be inclined to be generous to them.

An extra capital is always a nice boost anyway. So making these even nicer won't make them much more of a target than they already are.

Also extra gold income is likely to matter more in the early stages than extra gems and so I'd increase that by more than +30. Something like +100. Once they are up to a dozen provinces it won't be that noticable.

And its still a lot worse than what you wanted to give them. They are meant to be getting off to a flyer not be slightly better off by turn 50!

Maybe even +100 is too mean. As you know the gem incomes of the neutral nations perhaps some extra gems of those they don't have naturally will give them something to trade as an extra boost.

Like Rather says resources are the least important thing.

Have the mod settings changed? I uploaded my pretender yesterday, but there is no longer a LA Arcos spot, but only an generic Arcosophale spot which doesn't seem to accept my current pretender created with global.dm + CBM.
