SmallpoxSymptoms shows the devastating consequences of Smallpox strategy. Problems with area over-development, resource depletion, and the inevitable barbarians who prey on and in densely developed areas are all evident when using this script. Devastating to A.I. controlled tribes (not to mention t...

OnTheBeatenPathToRoad is intended to benefit AI tribes who build road near their cities for tile trade value rather than as connection between cities. Usually they leave gaps in the road (between cities), which results in their city defender units not being able to quickly move from one city to ano...

SearchForWaterCisterns is a modified version of the routine as used in the Hillzapoppin' scenario. Allows Workers (only -- Settlers and Engineers are too high-up in their wagons and bulldozers) to search for (and sometimes find) hidden underground water cisterns. They are only found on Grassland ti...

LateArrivalStartunits makes it possible for a scenario to give only non-Settler start units at turn 0, and then have Settlers and/or other units appear later. For example, to give human players an edge, provide a couple of Workers as start units without any settlers (and without the "start wit...

LabelUnhomedUnits --############################################################################## function Lua_LabelUnhomedUnits(unit, src_tile, dst_tile) if ( LabelUnhomedUnits == nil ) then LabelUnhomedUnits=true end -- If this routine is disabled, just return without doing anything else if not ...

For anyone who would like to try a scenario with these Lua additions, attached to this post is a scenario file, "FairTEST" for Freeciv 2.6 or later (using the map from a previously posted scenario, "Fairspun" but with XY wrap disabled.) All five of the scripts posted in this topi...

EscortWorkers: A Phalanx on the same tile with a worker will move with the worker from tile-to-tile. If the Phalanx is in Sentry mode, it will stay in Sentry mode after each move. --############################################################################## function Lua_EscortWorkers(unit, src_t...
