ID.png The ReligionType pseudo-type is actually a regular integer. Pseudo-types do not exist in Lua, they only serve a documentation purpose on the wiki!
  • DB.png Integers labeled as ReligionType corresponds to the ID column of the Religions XML table.
  • Lua.png The standard (unmodded) values in the ID and Type columns are also stored in the ReligionTypes Lua enumeration.


Lua: the ReligionTypes enumeration

Firaxis provides a Lua enumeration named ReligionTypes. This is just a regular global table. Its keys are the constants' names and the pairs the corresponding values.

  • This specific enumeration contains data from the Religions data table.
  • They are stored as key/value pairs: the keys are the strings from the Type column and the values are the integers from the ID column.

Radioactive.png Be careful: this enumeration do not reflect the changes, additions and deletions made by mods. As a result it is advised to rely on GameInfo instead.


Below are the values found in this enumeration.

Key Value
"NO_RELIGION" -1
"RELIGION_PANTHEON" 0


XML: the Religions table

Here are the ID and Type columns found in this table.

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.

local id = ReligionTypes.RELIGION_PANTHEON
local id = ReligionTypes["RELIGION_PANTHEON"]

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 GameInfo.

local id = GameInfo.Religions.RELIGION_PANTHEON.ID
local id = GameInfo["Religions"].["RELIGION_PANTHEON"].ID
local id = GameInfo.Religions{Type="RELIGION_PANTHEON"}().ID

Alternatively you could use the ID or the type to retrieve the value of the Description column. Those examples will return and assign the value TXT_KEY_RELIGION_PANTHEON.

local description = GameInfo.Religions[0].Description
local description = GameInfo["Religions"][0]["Description"]
local description = GameInfo.Religions{ID=0}().Description
