The great DB Manual

[T.C.]

I don't know what causes them to spawn but the order in which they spawn is controlled by the startpos (each town / port has a number which determines which order they spawn in). It may be controlled by one of the database tables.

Also I updated the 'ETW regions CAI.xml' so it contains an index to make searching for the various IDs easier.

Theres a spawn_town_level () (something like that) function. There's also functions in the CUI (I think) that retrieve info on population data. It's a safe bet that these are used for it.

Yes. But it's not very high on my to-do list at the minute, I've better features like disease re-introduction to work on

I know I know
there's a very long list of features to re-introduce
disease is one of the most important

Empire is mostly an incomplete game lost in CA's mind

I have recently notice that it was also planned coal as resource, not present
iron or coal lets metal-towns to be built

more than 1 year ago someone re-introduce partially family-tree, but he couldn't make that only for monarchy

and so on

Adding features back in isn't the problem, getting them working right is. Disease, for example, is easy to get back into game, but it can't cause unit casualties. So I'm currently looking for other ways for it to have effects.

Does this mean that you'd build industrial town instead of iron mine? If may be possible to give the player the choice to build industrial towns or iron mines by adding 'town-metal' to 'iron' in the db table 'building_chain_to_slots_table'.

Also checking the DB tables it seems that originally you could have a governor in Asia and Africa. Pity these theatres were cut.

Finally in the trade_theatre_commodities_table the following numbers represent these theatres.

east_indies -1133129049
madagascar 836795134
brazil 1197997136
ivory_coast 2113354257

no I mean that you can build an industrial town only if you have in this province an iron mine or a coal mine

this is the function used in buildings table as condition to build iron workshops and so on

 
hasRegionResource(res_iron) OR hasRegionResource(res_coal)

but coal is not present
and that's a pity because coal was the primary resource during industrial revolution

I've updated the ETW regions CAI to include land masses. The main ones are for Afro-Eurasia (13) and the Americas (20). The other land masses usually represent individual islands such as the UK (11) or Cuba (18), or islands that belong to other regions such as Visby (89, part of Sweden) and Cyprus (53, part of Syria). There are two exceptions to this: the Camopi Mines in French Guyana (14) and the Jalisco Mines in New Spain (762). I suspect the Jalisco Mines were a very late addition, which is why they have such a high number.

I also include the ETW pathfinding, which has all the information from the main campaign's pathfinding.esf.

Would anyone know what value in the DB table effects how often ships catch fire. I have tried the high/low medium incendiary value in the kv_rules table, but does not seem to change anything. Increasing teh value or decreasing seems to not change anything. I wondered if there is a value elsewhere?

I wish to increase the chance a ship burns for visual testing purposes.
