Civ4GoodyInfo

The Civ4GoodyInfo file controls the potential results for exploring a goody hut. Possibilities include spawning barbarians, receiving a free technology, or gaining an extra warrior.

All tags must be opened and closed; the first is the "open", the second the "close" tag. If nothing goes inside a "list tag", then it should just be the opening tag with a "/" before the closing bracket. The following tables contain all available tags, as well as their purpose and accepted values.

This page is missing information. Do not remove this notice until it is complete.

Tags

Headers

These tags typically bracket other tags, sometimes the entire file, and are generally used to specify more than one piece of data.

Tag Name	Description
GoodyInfos	This tag begins and ends the entire file.
GoodyInfo	This begins and ends the information for each goody hut option type. All of the attributes for each goody hut result are contained within.

Text

Tag Name	Description
Type	The name of the goody hut result type used internally by the game.
Description	A reference to an entry in the Civ4GameTextInfos text file which contains the text displayed on-screen when this result is achieved (e.g. "The villagers are hostile!").
Sound	This is a reference to an entry in the Audio2DScripts file which declares the sound played when this goody hut result is received.
UnitClass	Gives a free unit of the specified unit class. For example, UNITCLASS_SETTLER or UNITCLASS_WARRIOR.
BarbarianClass	Defines the class of barbarian units spawned. Default is UNITCLASS_WARRIOR.

Integers

All of these tags have a numerical value. Though it sometimes can be negative, it usually is not.

Tag Name	Description
iGold	Unknown. The default is 20, for both GOODY_LOW_GOLD and GOODY_HIGH_GOLD. Affects the grant of free gold.
iGoldRand1	Unknown. GOODY_LOW_GOLD has a value of 21, and GOODY_HIGH_GOLD has a value of 51. Used to determine the exact amount of free gold.
iGoldRand2	Unknown. GOODY_LOW_GOLD has a value of 21, and GOODY_HIGH_GOLD has a value of 51. Used to determine the exact amount of free gold.
iMapOffset	Unknown exactly. Presumably affects the center tile of the region that is revealed (e.g. the map is not always directly located on top of the goody hut).
iMapRange	The distance within which tiles may become visible.
iMapProb	The percentage chance that each tile in the specified region of the fog of war will become visible. Default is 80.
iExperience	The amount of free experience points given to the unit.
iHealing	Assumed to be the percentage of a unit's damage that is healed by the goody hut.
iDamagePrereq	Assumed to be the amount that a unit must be damaged to possibly attain the iHealing bonus, expressed as a percent. For example, the default value of 60 for the healing option presumably means that a unit must be at 40 HP or lower to receive this result.
iBarbarianUnitProb	The probability percentage that each of the 8 surrounding tiles will generate a barbarian unit.
iMinBarbarians	The minimum number of barbarians that will be spawned for this option. This prevents the unlikely scenario of no tiles generating a barbarian unit as per the iBarbarianUnitProb tag.

Boolean

All of these can either be 1 (on, or true) or 0 (off, or false). Be careful, as you can wind up with a double-negative, which the game will interpret as "True".

Tag Name	Description
bTech	If 1, gives the player a free eligible technology (here, eligible means that some advanced technologies are not receivable).
bBad	If 1, this means that the result is unfavorable to the player.
