The 'TerrainID' pseudo-type is actually a regular '''integer'''.<br/>
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/>
== Mods ==
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/>
The keys are the strings from the 'Type' column and the values are the integers from the 'ID' column.<br/>

== Examples ==
Here is how to use the LUA enumeration to retrieve the ID from the 'type'. Those examples will return and assign the integer value 0.
<pre>
local id = TerrainTypes.TERRAIN_GRASS
local id = TerrainTypes["TERRAIN_GRASS"]
</pre>
Here are different ways to query the database to retrieve the ID from the 'type'. Those examples will return and assign the integer 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 the value TXT_KEY_TERRAIN_GRASS.
<pre>
local description = GameInfo.Civ5Terrains[0].Description
local description = GameInfo["Civ5Terrains"][0]["Description"]
local description = GameInfo.Civ5Terrains{ID=[0}().Description
</pre>
 
==Methods using those identifies==
