Stellar Defense Platform

Adding Structures to Galactic Civ 3

Posted on Saturday, September 3, 2016

I am attempting to create a mod that will add a new structure to the game, A defense platform. In short this "Structure" will have properties of several different units. 

For example,

It will be able to be built from a planet. but then create a unit on the galactic map. I understand this concept is confusing so perhaps it will be better to site an example. Think of the shipyard. It is built as a planetary improvement but then creates a unit on the galactic map. It would still have a movement capable that the shipyard has (1 tile per turn, and an anchor/unanchor toggle.) 

Next it would function as a military starbase. It would have the ability to be upgraded with several different star base models. 

unfortunately i don't have the foggiest idea on how to code this. 

Any advise would be appreciated
