	Old Question, maybe Support Apolyton

This has probably been asked to death, or at elast asked before.

I'd like to make more units like the eco ranger, that require a wonder before they can be built, can this be done? ....or is it a hard coded effect? which files (guesses welcome) would need to be edited to accomplish this?

Nope. IIRC basically a hard coded effect:

I.E.

the "EnableParkRangers" flag in Wonder.txt

It might be nice to have a slightly different way of doing this:

EnableBuildClassGlobal value

for Wonders and Feats (and allow it to be changed thru SLIC too)

EnableBuildClassLocal value

for City Improvements (and allow it to be changed thru SLIC too)

and

BuildClass value

for Wonders, City improvements, Tile Improvements and Units

Was afraid of that, thanks anyway

	Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

No problem.

and I wouldn't worry too much about it... these type of things are relatively simple to fix.

As its mostly the modders involved in the CTP2 Source Project, the things to do with modding flexibility (where they make sense) should get solved.

There is a way around it via slic which is easy to right all you have to do is to Wright a small amount of code that basically gives a civ with that wonder accesses to that tech

code:

HandleEvent(CityBeginTurn) 'grantadforwonder' post 
{
	if(CityHasWonder(city[0], WonderDB(WONDER_EMPIRE_STATE_BUILDING))) {
	GrantAdvance(CITY[0].owner, AdvanceDB(ADVANCE_AGRICULTURE));
	}
}

Here I have made it for you all you have to do is make a dummy advance that needs itself for research to start (look at subnural adds).

Then make that unit only build able with the discovery of that advance.

then stick this in scenario.slc then change agriculture for the advance and empire STATE BUILDING for you wonder

Pc sorry I could not test it but it should work

Or save time and grant the advance on the CreateWonder event.

code:

HandleEvent(CreateWonder) 'grantadforwonder' post 
{
             if(value[0] == WonderDB(WONDER_XYZ)){
                   GrantAdvance(city[0].owner, AdvanceDB(ADVANCE_XYZ));
             }
}
