I am working on a conversion of Harlan Thompson's classic The

~Nation-specific techs. For example; Chinese Wisdom is a tech that

enabling unique units and other techs. I tried to use the requirement
Never but that simply disabled the tech altogether, making the
server fail loading the ruleset since other techs depended on it.


Use the root_req tech field to implement this.


~Event upon the death of a unique unit.
~Event upon the conquest of a specific city.


Should be possible with scripts.


~Event that obsoletes. The death of the Genghis Khan unit obsoletes
certain wonders and so does the conquest of Rome for example.


Not currently possible. Think it will be hard to do with the current code, 
but you can make a workaround - the death of a unique unit can give you a 
tech (eg Genghis Khan's Death) that has that effect.

 BTW, does an impassable terrain flag exist, something that stops
 land units from entering a certain kind of terrain? Most Civ2 modders
 use an ugly workaround for this: a unit that looks like a mountain and
 has 0 moves.

 You can do this only in trunk. See native_to -field in terrain.ruleset.

Ok. So I'll do a similar workaround for the time being.
