Could units build buildings of the civ they are, rather than buildings of the player's civ?

[aleramzvars]

Hi! I'm new to the forum, but I've been playing 0 A.D. for a couple of years and I love it because of the variety of civilizations it has. This idea comes up to my mind almost every time I play, because I usually focus on building rather than conquering. What I do is activate the "change perspective" option from the developer panel and then I play with many civilizations at the same time to enjoy building. But most maps are only available for 2 to 4 players, so I wonder if it's possible to make the units build buildings of the civilization the belong to some way. For example, if Player 1 is playing Spartans but it conquers an Athenian civic centre, he/she could recruit Athenian women from that civic centre, and those women would be able to build Athenian buildings rather than Spartan buildings. Is there any way to do this?

I didn't see any mod out there or anyone talking about this topic, but I think it would be a great feature. If you ever played Sparta, they did it that way. (Of course, they only had 3/4 civilizations )

No, eso se lo quitaron desde que se implementó la mecánica.

¿Sería difícil modificarla para lograrlo? No le he echado un vistazo al código aún, pero sé programar en JavaScript.

I think all maps of Type: Random can be played with up to 8 players, if you'd like to have more of them on the map.

And welcome to the forums.

Yes, I know it's possible to play 8 factions. But, even if I have to do it myself, is it possible to change this "player-binded" behavior using JavaScript?

In Delenda Est, if you capture an enemy Civic Center, then you can train that civ's Citizens, who will mostly build your civ's buildings, but will build their own culture's temple, wonder, and cult statue.

@wowgetoffyourcellphone he asks how these parameters are modified

@aleramzvars con saber editar un XML es suficiente.

Thank you, I'll take a look at Delenda Est. I played it before but didn't realize about that feature. I'll take a look at the mod files also to find out which of them I could to modify to enable that behavior for all buildings and units, not only temples, wonders and cult statues.

 

PS: if you could give me some hint I would really appreciate it

mixins/builders is what you want to edit. template_unit_support_citizen is where the changes will be apparent.
