The game only knows how to recognize existing definitions, so you can't add new unique abilities to nations/units/buildings/etc, only play around with existing ones Games loaded with these mods will function according to the mod definition. Mods can add, replace and remove basic game definitions, such as units, nations, buildings, improvements, resources and terrains. Unfortunately, the game only understands code, so mods are our way to give a degree of freedom to those of us who don't code. 'My first mod' - Making a new CivilizationĮveryone has that thing they wish could be in the game.
