Flooded Graveyard Doesn't Grant Life

from Elemental Forums

I recently conquered the swamp lands as a Kingdom, and quickly built a city near the Flooded Graveyard. It is Death mana, but Death mana shards always converted to Life mana, so I assumed I could use it (especially as there is no Life mana wildland). Imagine my disappointment when I found out that it did not convert to Life mana when it entered my borders.

To the Devs, it would be nice if when the Flooded Graveyard entered a Kingdom border, it became "Sacred Graveyard" or something, granting Life mana. It is inconsistent that it doesn't. Also, considering I cannot use these troll lairs, it makes the the swamp wildlands worthless for Kingdoms.

In the meantime, could someone make a simple mod that either turns the Flooded Graveyard into a Kingdom-useable Life mana resource, or let it be both?

Thank you kindly.

I'm not sure if it is possible to force a conversion of a worldresource because of environment change. It is hardcoded to convert the life and death shards as indicated depending on the environment. The most that someone may do is to create a coreimprovement on top of the resource that provides what you want.

But to the topic of the flooded graveyard, I think there should be at least an alternative resource (not necessarily of conversion resource) but another resource altogether, that should be it's equivalent.

Thank you, Parrot. Is it possible to just flat out change what mana type the Graveyard gives? I could just change files whenever I manage to get it in my borders. I went looking for the file myself, but all I found were the art assets and the Hiergammon (sp?) entry.

Sorry, if you want extra life power, you have to find Iru T'alavar, the hidden valley that almost never spawns in any map. (sob)

I had no idea this was a thing. It is nice to know it exists.

If you want to see it for sure...it is on Anthys. Can't tell you where, that's a SPOILER,
