Middle Earth Resource Overhaul(WIP)

[orclover5]

Middle Earth Resource Overhaul(WIP)
The middle earth resource overhaul aims at making the economic portion of TATW more immersive and challenging.
****My number one goal is to make every unit and building feel significant or important...unless they are orcs. And not just represented by a certain amount of ambiguous gold coins.

Finally, If you run out of a resource you can no longer recruit any unit that needs that resource. Nearly each unit in the EDB with have 1-4 counters to determine if that unit can be trained. This means I may decrease the gold price dramatically for each unit, as that is merely their pay...

Everything in this mod is governed by the campaign script... all credit goes to Tsarsies for creating the horse pastures mod for M2tw... my mod is just an expansion of that script.

Now my faction in game(eriador) doesn't use armored units for a long time but I capture a mine early on. That means I have an excess of ore, which you can check by hitting the help scroll in the military tab. Once I hit 3000 ore, my allies show up and offer me money for ore. And I accept.

And Completed

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

-This mod makes a mine required to even have a single sword, pike, metal shield, or piece of armor.
-This mod makes you need more mines to get more of these things.
-This mod allows you to trade excess or buy from other "rich" factions...ie...horses from Rohan..if Allied.


Now here is why I posted a WIP.
I need some help.

1. Would anyone play this mod if it was added to MOS, or DAC. It would be time consuming to do so?
2. Would this script make turns too long?
This is only one resource(iron) for one faction...albeit 40 or so units.

Feel free to take the script and use it or make it more efficient if you know how.

3. What other resources should I add...right now I am thinking...
-wood, food, leather, manpower, wool.

So in theory a dunedain ranger unit of 50 would need

100 iron ingots, 100 polished wood, 200 leather strips, 50 units of food, take up 50 manpower, and 50 pieces of wool.
4. Here is my last question... Should the AI use the resource system? Are they too stupid, would it make the game too easy? In theory if they have iron, and they build a mine they should be able to build without care. There is no negative resource so they will just be slowed, and have to let resources build back up again. A real positive is you can attack the resource regions with strategic purpose... that is something that is missing because of the needed money scripts.
5. Please respond if you care... I only play one faction, eriador, and I don't play any of the major mods, mine is using old map and is modded in nearly every file. If there is interest I may port it over to MOS or DAC.

[Pandarr]

Well, I really like your ideas. A better economy management is always something nice in my opinion.

[H.Maverick]

I love it!, All modders! DO IT! lol, it really is a good idea tbh, surprised noone have thought of it before

[Funeh]

will the soldiers cost gold too or only resources??

[manekemaan]

This looks like a great idea. I would like to see the tactical effects it would have if implemented on the AI as wel. It should be done with care though, not making them to easy. I think it will need a lot of scripting on the campaign ai (so that they also target more inteligently)

I would definitly play it.

ai wouldn't be smart enough to know when it should conquer mines to have more resources or something... this should be player only or done to a much less (MUCH LESS!) extent to the AI

Also, AFAIK, such a great amount of new monitors ought to be a really big penalty to the performance, as considered in point #2. Considering for example the issue many have with MOS performance, the "lag" may very well scare away many from using it

That said, if it can be made in a smooth non-lagging way, and not crippling the AI which is not Skynet and would not Think economicly or strategically, it's a neat idea to develop the 'imperial tycoon' game play, a part that I enjoy perhaps most in campaigns

Each unit in game will have 3-4 counters under their unit trained monitor but the monitors shouldn't multiple too much from what they are in the provided script. Also the AI will only be handicapped with resources like wood when they don't have access to forests... I have created new buildings, a slash and burn building for orcs, and driftwood for Middle-eastern. That being said it is probably too much work for a few to play it, and I only play one faction, I will probably continue to add it to my personal submod, and not MOS or DAC because the EDB and EDU or pretty much full, and I won't be able to add the units I prefer...I will finish with all the resources, add it to my game... test it, and release the script,events, and new buildings as an open resource. I will include how to add units to the script so people can do this with their own games, and if someone wants, they can add it to one of the big submods.
