Roads

[Vlad-Tudor]

If anyone has any idea if its possible to keep the small roads aspect on the strategic map even if you upgrade them to paved roads. When upgraded at paved roads they look on the global map like superhighways and when you make them as romans as highways they already look like conveyor belts which just is not fitting the ancient theme.
The solution I came up with is just giving the + trade bonus to small roads directly, but having to go through upgrades is more realistic.
Anyway, it's just a cosmetic thing, but would be nice if anyone would know if its possible.
Thanks in advance

Try this, but make a backup before:
I added two conditions and they can not be met. I guess in export_descr_building.txt this part should look like so.
