Hey, so I made a Mod(pack) that consist of several mods

Group chat
Better Cities
Winning Conditions
Diplomacy
Gift Gold

If you are interested in testing, please let me know in this thread. I will sponsor some non-member games as well.
(Say, 2 days from this post to the 1st test game)

Independently, all of the mods works well. I took them all, and gave them a singel UI, plus other necessarily changes. to make them all work together. The goal here is to identify and fix any lingering bugs, get feedback on any UI elements that can be improved, consider any other mods that should be added to this 'pack'. Keep in mind, that by putting all the mods in one mod, I can eliminate any mod conflict.

Note that the listed mods are not identical to their original counterparts, thru the changes are very minor. You can also turn on/off any mod (except Group chat) as desired.

Example of how the Client UI looks in game, with some of the mods.

Nice, Tell Me When you Start.

I can test it

Finally! A group chat+diplomacy mod! I'd love to help test it! While I'm not a member, I am the diplomacy manager for TLA, which (I hope) makes me a good choice for testing a diplomacy mod.

I'll test but I don't have membership anymore

PM me when you want me.

Count me in. Sounds great.

What version of diplomacy is it? v4, I hope... it's the best one.

I’m here if you need me.

Is it available now? Could test it myself if you want ... actually wait, nvm, best I leave that to you.

I already had 1 giant 40 player FFA for non-members get auto VTE'd b/c a mod errored out.

The group chat is the most appealing of this. Really should be core game code though.

If you add Limited Multiattacks to that and it's diplo v4, this could be my Go To mod going forward.

I keep meaning to augment the LMA mod to allow Limited Multi-transfers ... but alas, work keeps me too busy to have cycles for it.

I am in a lot of games right now, but I'm too interested to miss this. Invite me if you have room (Which it seems you do).

If you add Limited Multiattacks to that and it's diplo v4, this could be my Go To mod going forward.

I added Fizzer's diplo 2 mod. Mostly because that one looked much simpler, likely bug-free and I don't have experience with v4 myself. If there is some specific part you want for the diplo part, do say. I am not opposed to adding other diplo mods, but it will have to come as an update later after this mod is public. (I want to avoid the mod getting "stuck" in development.)

LM is an interesting suggestion. I am hesitant to adding mods which uses cards, but maybe I will see if there is a way to add the same functionality.

Don't have too much experience with diplo v2 tbh but remember using v4 after it and never went back b/c it has so much more functionality.

Why do you say LM uses cards? Oh ... for the "activation" mechanism... I never use that anyhow. Actually not sure if anyone does. It's kind of silly tbh, to have LM only when playing some type of card. IMHO, either a game uses it or doesn't.

What I'm trying to time to add is "Limited Transfers" (actually you gave me some good info on how to write the mod, just need to find time to do it). Limited is the important part. Unlimited MA is kind of odd tbh, and of course Unlimited Transfers would be too. But LM and LT would be awesome.

Totally get "stuck" in development. And glad you're astute enough to realize that. It's better to do a v1 of something than never release anything at all.

What's LM?
