Real Eurekas

New v5.0.1 as of 14.12 - Compatibility with CQUI-Lite.

Make Eurekas and Inspirations a real surprise! There are 500+ new ones and they are randomly assigned to Techs and Civics. Each game will look different from now on.

- The mod works with vanilla game, Rise & Fall and Gathering Storm.
- Version 3.0+ also works with my Better Tech Tree mod.
- Works with the latest CQUI. Please note however that REU will overwrite features that CQUI adds to the trees.
- Works with the Shuffle Mode - boosts for not revealed items are not shown.
- Yes, works with Babylon / Hammurabi as well :)

The game offers a limited set of Eureka/Inspiration boosts that can actually be parameterized. Basically when there's a boost related to X of something, 'X' can be changed and 'something' can be something else. Theoretically any boost can be assigned to any tech/civic but in practice most of such assignments doesn't make any sense - there need to be some kind of logic. Btw, this logic is explained in the the Eureka popup-window - bet you never read those :)
Using this mechanisms I have created hundreds of new boosts. I managed to actually create 3-5 new boosts for almost each tech and civic. But that's not all - they are randomly assigned when the game starts. It means that each game will look different. I put some examples on the screenshots.

There are 3 options available that affect how randomization works.
- A: use it when you want to randomize boosts once and play entire game with this set; SP & MP games
- B: it rolls randomly a new set of boosts each time the game is started or re-loaded; SP only
- C: it rolls randomly a new set of boosts and it will change every day (default option now); SP only
The option is set via in RealEurekas_0_Setup.sql file. There are also detailed instructions and more info.

I've created several custom boosts. These are totally new ones and different from the ones provided by the game. As for now there are 120+ custom boosts, related to an early game, placing of your capital and 2nd city and City-States. Examples:
- If there are rainforest tiles or tundra, hills, etc. around.
- If there are resources that can be mined later
- Have a desert tile within borders when settling 2nd city.
- Found the Capital adjacent to a mountain.
- Settle your first 2 cities on 2 potential quarries.
- Meet an Industrial CS or any other type.
- Be a Suzerain of a Religious CS.

There is a startup option available in Advanced Options that governs how trigger information is displayed:
- Always visible (same as vanilla game) - DEFAULT.
- Visible when can be researched.
- Visible when you start researching a tech or civic.
- Visible only after the boost has been activated.
Triggered boosts are always visble, regardless of the chosen option.
