Civ3 Feature Documentation

This section is to document or provide links to documentation of how Civ3 works, for reference.

Can we nest pages here like we can on Confluence? That would be swell. Nope, we can't. So there will be sections here.

Tile Visibility

Please see this post for experimental results around tile visibility.

Tile Yield Overlays

The file Art/Terrain/tnt.pcx is used for tile yield overlays. Each row corresponds to a different type of base Civ3 terrain, in order: grassland, grassland with shield, plains, desert, tundra, flood plains.

A pattern has not been identified for which column is used.

For bonus grasslands when tile yields are turned off, the desert tnt.pcx row is used.

Long term we probably want a better system than the legacy tnt tiles for displaying tile yield.
