The 'TerrainID' pseudo-type is actually a regular '''integer'''. <br/>
CivFanatics profile: [http://forums.civfanatics.com/member.php?u=210491 DonQuiche]
Pseudo-types do not exist in LUA, they only serve a documentation purpose on the wiki.<br/>


Integers labeled as 'TerrainID' corresponds to the 'ID' column of the [[Civ5Terrains]] XML table.<br/>
The values in the 'ID' and 'Type' columns are also dynamically stored on startup in the '''TerrainTypes''' LUA enumeration.<br/>

==TerrainTypes enumeration ==
A LUA enumeration is a just a regular table. <br/>
It is commonly used to store constants, the keys being the constants' names and the pairs the corresponding values.<br/>


On startup, the game reads the [[Civ5Terrains]] data table and stores key/value pairs in the LUA enumeration. <br/>
== My scratchpad: pages to salvage ==
The keys are the strings from the 'Type' column and the values are the integers from the 'ID' column.<br/>

==Examples==
 
Here are different ways to query the database to retrieve the ID from the 'type'. The variable 'id' will be assigned the value 0. See also [[Civ5Lua/GameInfo|GameInfo]].<pre>
local id = GameInfo.Civ5Terrains.TERRAIN_GRASS.ID
local id = GameInfo["Civ5Terrains"]["TERRAIN_GRASS"]["ID"]
local id = GameInfo.Civ5Terrains{Type="TERRAIN_GRASS"}().ID
</pre>
Alternatively you could use this ID to retrieve the value of the 'Description' column. Those examples will return and assign ''"TXT_KEY_TERRAIN_GRASS"''.<pre>
local description = GameInfo.Civ5Terrains.TERRAIN_GRASS.Description
local description = GameInfo["Civ5Terrains"]["TERRAIN_GRASS"]["Description"]
local description = GameInfo.Civ5Terrains{ID="TERRAIN_GRASS"}().Description
</pre>
Here is how to use the LUA enumeration to retrieve the ID from the 'type'. The variable 'id' will be assigned the value 9.<pre>
local id = TerrainTypes.NUM_TERRAIN_TYPES
local id = TerrainTypes["NUM_TERRAIN_TYPES"]
</pre>
 
 
==Methods using those identifiers==
