I made a mod for empire
Hey! I love your mod and have played quite a bit of it. One thing I found though, was that most resources only give you one chance to improve production (IE, one quarry or one logging camp), and if the biome your settlement is in has a low base production of that resource, you are pretty much screwed if you want to make that kind of item (especially if you have a low base tax).

After I saw something called mod tutorial: buildings, on the trello I got the idea to try to make a mod for this mod. It came out okay and I called it Goldminermac's Empire: Expanded Resource Buildings.

It adds 8 buildings, each focused around upgrading a certain resource past the 2.0 mark. Modding was surprisingly easy as it turns out Empire can load building and trait defs from other active mods, so no patches to the original were necessary.

I have been using it personally for a while and wanted to ask if I could publish it on the workshop.
Also, the mod thumbnail I used is an edited version of the existing Empire thumbnail, so I also want to know if I can use that image for the workshop listing if that is okay.

TL;DR I made a mod for this mod and want to release it to the workshop.

It’s your mod! I would be happy to see it posted.

And yes, you can use the art. Just make sure to credit the original artist (In the description)

Thanks! I read somewhere that you should ask a mod's developer before making a mod that changes something about their mod, and while this mod doesn't really change anything, I thought I would ask anyway.

If you are in the discord, I will add you as a content developer. Just @me on there

Thanks! I might join. But just to be clear, I am no master modder, this is my first (real) mod and most of the building defs were copy pasted and edited.

Also, here it is

Its a bit unbalanced, so sorry about that.
