Modding features [MOD_FEATURE]
« on: November 09, 2016, 11:37:29 pm »
After some time (years) of tweaking the game rules, I have come to a conclusion, that sort of collection of ideas of "unit changes" (mod features) would be very useful. Mods typically have a large set of changes (these unit changes) that work as a whole, but it may be possible to combine these unit changes originating from various mods into new mods, that would work. Also, sharing ideas could bring new great mods.

Such threads would serve as a place to discuss them and possibly modify/upgrade.

I was thinking of a general label "Project"
and a tag [MOD_FEATURE]

Any comments on this naming and categorization?

I like it. It is something I would keep up with, even if I didn't participate directly.
Two possibilities exist: Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying. ― Arthur C. Clarke

No complaints here. I like how it has an underdash, so very computer programming-like.

You see in this dome the intermingling of native and earth plants. Outside, they are competitors, struggling over the trace elements required for life. Often, one destroys the other. Here, they are tended with care and kept well nourished. They thrive together, and the native fungus does not unleash its terrible defenses. As you can see, competition is unnecessary when resources are plentiful and population growth is controlled.
~ Lady Deirdre Skye ‘Planet Dreams’
