Luxury Resource Yield Rebalance

Version 2: Now every luxury gives exactly 1 non-Gold yield when improved. More luxuries give 3 Gold when improved (on top of the non-Gold yield).

1. Unimproved Wine yield changed from 1 Food, 1 Gold to 2 Gold despite being edible, in order to keep to this new rule without losing its Faith when improved.

2. Salt and Truffles give an additional +2 Gold instead of +1 Food when improved.

3. Furs and Silk give an additional +1 Food and +1 Gold instead of just +1 Food when improved.

4. Cotton and Dyes give an additional +1 Culture and +1 Gold instead of just +1 Culture when improved.

5. Whales, Crab, Citrus, Cocoa, Spices and Sugar now give an additional +1 Gold instead of +1 Food when improved. Now Whales and Crab are affected by this mod, while Citrus and Cocoa are now unaffected by the mod.

Have you ever wondered why some edible luxuries do not provide Food despite being edible? Do find the fact that most of them yield only Gold boring? Or have you ever felt some luxuries feel way more weak/powerful than others? This mod intends to make luxuries make more logical sense, and in the process slightly buff weak luxuries and slightly nerf strong luxuries so they are relatively consistent in quality. Also, all luxuries will produce at least 1 non-Gold yield when improved, which is a buff in most cases as Gold is the weakest yield to have early on.

First, all luxuries which are edible have 1 Food, 1 Gold base yields, while luxuries which are inedible have 2 Gold base yields.

1. Cloves, Nutmeg, Pepper, Spices, Sugar, Truffles and Wine now have 1 Food, 1 Gold base yield (a major buff to Indonesia).

2. Gems now have 2 Gold base yield (but I made Gems mines give 1 more Gold, so only its unimproved state is nerfed).

3. Citrus, Cocoa, Crab, Salt and Whales had 1 Food, 1 Gold and are unchanged,

4. Jewelery, Porcelain, Copper, Cotton, Dyes, Furs, Gold, Incense, Ivory, Marble, Pearls, Silk and Silver had 2 Gold and are unchanged.

Next, the additional yield from improvements are as follows, changed from +1 Gold unless otherwise stated:

1. Wine and Incense have +1 Faith when improved, befitting their status as religion-oriented luxuries.

2. Luxuries which are edible (excluding Wine), or have edible sources (Furs, Ivory, Pearls, Silk) have +1 Food when improved: Crab, Citrus, Cocoa, Furs, Ivory, Pearls, Salt, Silk, Spices, Sugar, Truffles and Whales (Crab, Pearls and Whales are unchanged from the unmodded game. Improved Salt no longer has +1 Production. For Furs, Ivory and Silk, I'm thinking that with improvements, the animals producing these luxuries are no longer unwanted by-products and become viable food sources. Mulberry plants used in silk plantations are also edible.).

3. Mine and Quarry luxuries, except Salt and Gems, get +1 Production when improved: Copper, Gold, Marble, Silver (these are unchanged from the unmodded game). Improved Salt now only gets +1 Food, and improved Gems now gets +1 Gold, +1 Production.

4. In order to make every luxury produce at least 1 non-Gold yield when improved, improved Cotton and Dyes will have +1 Culture, as it doesn't make sense to give them Faith, Food, Production or Science. These materials are used a lot in clothing, and a big part of the culture of a civilization is its people's clothing, so I guess it makes sense.

All luxuries other than Copper, Crab, Gold, Marble, Pearls, Silver, Whales, Jewelery and Porcelain are changed in one way or another. See this spreadsheet[docs.google.com] for the full list of luxuries, changed and unchanged.

This mod does not require any DLC, but it changes many resources introduced in G&K and BNW, so I recommend it to be used with all DLC. Works with my other mods.
