Note: this mod will not be updated, you can fine all content in my new mod Industrialisation





Adds concrete as a construction material, more HP but harder to build. Beauty 0
you can produce concrete from concrete mixer, cost 1 stone chunk and 1 steel, produce standard 8 concrete.
reseach "concrete production" to unlock concrete mixer

hotfix: you can now use the mod for your saved games ;D

Very nice idea!

But I think "Stonecutting research complete -> concrete research open" is perfect ..

Why we use stone block, cause it is strong and resonable price than steel.

Immediate researching concrete makes stone block useless

No researching immediate concrete makes stone block useless

oh i forgot to mention, there is a research called: concrete production(no need to reseach stonecutting though :P)

1. you don't need steel to produce stoneblocks
2. from 1 stone chunk you got more stoneblocks than concrete
3. concrete takes more time to produce

Nice idea. How does it compare in beauty though? One would expect it to be at least a 0 on beauty if not a -1 or something.

nope, it doesn't replace anything, just adds stuff. Should be fine to use on current saves unless he did something that's not mentioned in the original post.

I like what you have done here!  I think though that Concrete shouldn't really use Steel but if you added "Reinforced Concrete" then Steel would definitely be a part of that! :D

Not to bust a nut over this but...concrete itself does not contain metal.

Lots of different types but one common mixture is limestone + aggregates of other stone + water. What you can do is just make the concrete mixed as limestone+sandstone for example as one type of concrete wall + add research for it if you haven't for concrete wall but then add also Reinforced concrete wall research... (wall stronger but requires "rebar" so therefore metal increased cost etc) .....k

acctually i was trying to make it as Reinforced concrete, however because stuff system i can't make it cost extra steel while building the wall(unless i made a new wall type which i think is not necessary for a basic mod like this), so i made it cost steel while producing the concrete.

but thanks for point it out, if i decide to make the mod more detailed i will consider the idea.

fixed the black screen problem while loading saved games ;D

Minor nitpick but it would be better if it used a smooth texture instead of the regular wall, since I've never seen a wall made of concrete bricks.
