@xnadu27 I'm a patient man, so I don't really care how long it takes, but if you are personally concerned with balancing your ambition against what is practical, for both now and in the future, then here is what I suggest you do:

1) Make a quick outline of EXACTLY what your vision for this mod is. For example "This is a Civic Overhaul." I'm not saying that is only what this mod is, this is only an example.

2) Make a list of every single unfinished thing you currently want to do. We will call this list "Current Ideas". Do not add new ideas to this list as they come to you unless you are 100% certain you think those ideas are critical to your original vision of the mod. Place those new ideas in a "Future Ideas" llist for later use.

3) Take everything in the above list that does not fit within the parameters of the outline you made in step 1 and place them in the Future Ideas list. What you have left over in the Current Ideas list is all you need to worry about for the time being. Just focus on that.

4) Complete everything thing that is still left in the Current Ideas list and release that as version 1.0 of this mod. You can release what is in the Future Ideas list in increments as you go from here.

I know this sounds like a lot to do just to organize your thoughts, but it doesn't take long and your sanity will thank you for it later. This is just my suggestion anyway. If you have your own way to get organized that go for it.

Pacing yourself and knowing exactly what you hope to accomplish are critical. I know from personal experience that when your ambition grows too large too fast that you will have a burn out. If that happens then the project you are working on becomes more of a chore then a joy. Don't let that happen.

I’ve moved the faction overhaul and negative event civics as well as a Marauder civic to post-release. That should be reasonable.

As you stated to stay with unchanged ethics, would you mind to add compatibility for ethic mods like other modders?

The only ethic mod is More Civics in Ethics and Civics Rebuild, and this is an alternative. I cannot add compatibility because so many things from that mod are in mine, but mine are altered and based around vanilla ethics. This is just how modding works, I can’t really do anything except add ethics into my mod.

I will later add some ethics down the line possibly. Probably when I add Traditions. But this a long ways away, the mod will be released before then.

Thx the kind answer. Well, first I thought it is planned to do a full overhaul mod, but now it seems like a civics mod just like Juri's but instead without ethic support. It's your vision, but on the other side if you shrink the road too narrow those who like to play with a lot of society variety mods can't use it. No offense, just my view on it.

The point is not to use any other civic mods with this, it already includes many of them. Read the credits. Plus, the extra ethics are civics in my mod, so you can still play however you want. Industrialist, Environmentalist, Collectivst, Individualist, it’s all there.



Oh btw, Open Beta realessing soon.

Not modifying the ethics for the time being will significantly help with mod compatibility, imo. There are many not government-related mods (like More AI Personalities, Ethical Habitats, Dynamic Political Events, Potent Rebellions afaik) which depend on vanilla Ethics to work and would require extensive patching otherwise. Implementing the extra ethics as civics instead for now is a good decision.

Yes, exactly why I did it.

Ah, ok, then I have misunderstood how your mod works. The pure list isn't offering too many insights to me. Will give a try with the beta then.
