Soooo many canal city memes I could spam over here. Oh god, this game
Thanks for the mod, though.

@FerrusFylax agreed.

should need water tiles on 2 sides of city

Here is a BNW version: http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=646174697

still waiting for BNW version~~

I would love to see this in my Game. But it doesnt work for me and my BNW...

Had to comment on "Scotland tried it first" statement. Not sure where you got your degree, but I would get your money back.

The Scots did throw financial support to the canal, but never personally laid hands on it. The french are to thank for the thought of trying, the scots just lost their money when the french failed.

Great Mod!

Actually... Scotland tried it first. Sorry... I have a history degree and a twitch. :/

The art is still in the files, it just didn't make the final cut to be hooked up to anything

I've seen that artwork on the loading screen for the game once. How'd it end up there if the designers never put the actual wonder in the game? Still a great mod though!

can you make a canal mod with this with the wonders texture?

@Jamacl42 Edit Panama Canal Wonder (v 1)>XML>Buildings>Panama_Buildings archive.
Locate and delete <TradeRouteModifier>25</TradeRouteModifier> place <CityConnectionTradeRouteModifier>25</CityConnectionTradeRouteModifier> instead.
It works for me.

Yes, please update for BNW. It is a shame this wonder was not included in the official game, but you have it in your power to include it like it belongs. Thanks!

Another call for you to fix this for BNW, please!

hmm can you update this so it works on BNW?

Motherland and Three Gorges work with BNW, but this one still doesn't :(

Oh, I forgot about this one. I've got some spare time today so I might be able to update it

Anyone know what it would take to update this mod to Brave New World? I'm new to writing mods and was wondering if anyone else could help with this.

Looks like it could work fine without GNK

Can u try 2 let it work without Gods&Kings?

@e_schiemann I like that canal improvement idea.

ok

Not yet

BNW?

you should be abel to make a "canal" tile improvement, like you can with roads and rail roads, they should take longer to construct than roads and railroads so you could move ships from your capital, if it happened to be a couple tiles from the coast, in and out, and youd also be able to move cargoships in and out of an inland capital.... but to make so they couldnt be every where, you would only be able to build them in a straight line (not around terrain obsticles like mountains...) and they'd cost quite abit (lets say, 8 GPT) to prevent over useage, oh, and they could only be like, 1 to 4 tiles in length... Just saying though, if you could use a canal as a tile improvement, it would be pretty awesome, who else thinks so?

please update to bnw

Does this mod actually add the Panama Canal on the map? If it does, this would be a huge military and trade advantage. It would be great if one could actually sail ships through the canal.

im interested in mods like this, we should have canals and bridges is civ, allowing units to pass through land and over watcer etc.

can u actually pass your ships through the canal?

Joey72099 that's what I was thinking also, but I think only a great engineer should be able to build one and ships should have no defense while stopped in it.

ya, that would be cool. I'm learning about the code for this game right now, might make a mod of that later

It would be cool if you could have a worker make a canal so your boats could go through an isthmus but your enemy boats couldn't and it would be good to shorten trade routes.

love the mod however it is my main casuality of the BNW expansion, have it enabled but it does not allow me to build it.

Okay, thanks for the heads up, I'm sure it will be well worth the wait.

Yeah, that's along the lines of what I'm thinking. I'm a bit busy in real life at the moment, so it'll probably be updated in a couple weeks

Seen as much has changed with BNW, will the ability of the Panama Canal be changed, and if so what changes are thinking of making. If I had to make a suggestion I would say it should add something like +4 gold to the wonder's owner for each sea trade route leaving or entering the city in which its built, and a free Seaport (as Harbors are usually built in the mid-game and this wonder is pretty much a late-game wonder). Either way, looking forward to the BNW version of this mod.

Absolutely - sadly that's impossible as the Lua is at the moment, hopefully the requirements get better with future patches

since it's a canal, it wouold be cool if it can only be built if the city has an Isthmus within it's borders... just a thought, i love wonders that can oly be built in certain circumstances (why does a coastal city need a giant canal?)

Hope to use your mod with BNW soon. Let us know when the update is ready

awsome! thanks for the fast response pouakai, I eagerly await your panama canal!!!

I don't think so, I think they changed the trade route modifier code so it's going to break the file. I should be releasing a new version fairly soon though

i hate to ask, but is this bnw compatible?

Can you make the Suez Canal a Wonder? I would love if you did. :)

That shouldn't be happening, are you using any other (major) mods?

i found i could build it without railroad at the very start of a game.

Again, this is one which will have siginificant updates with the new expansion, so stay tuned!

I agree that it should give both free harbor and seaport- you'll likely be removing maintnance costs from one existing harbor, and giving a seaport for free right as you're really starting to want them. (remember how many large ships are built in panama because of this thing in the real world, so the ship production bonus makes a lot of sense, too!)

and yet always need god and kings for awsome mods like this -_-

Yes, but as I have said a number of times, I can't do that. It can't even be done with Lua to the best of my knowledge

I agree with Captain Athraws, the city should be joining two bodies of water.
