Haven't touched it in 6+ years now. I went off it when I was developing my own indie game in a similar genre (done as a personal project, but far from polished enough to ever release) and never found a reason to go back. Civ6 has too much sprawl and repetition for my tastes. Will probably look at Civ7 if that's ever a thing.

You're still playing civilization or you lost interest in the game entirely?

Thank you, that's very nice to hear! But really, no need to thank me, I really just did it for myself in an attempt to understand the game better, sharing it was almost an after thought haha

I just came across your Against the Storm guide. Thank you for taking the time to put it together, it is extremely helpful. I cannot find a way to add a rating for it on mobile, but I'll be rating it as soon as I can.

Ah, such a shame, but that's to be expected since it's a decade old mod. I spent a while searching for mods that changed how the economy sliders work and the idea of having an "Investment" slider was exactly what I had in mind. Even if It was unfinished, part of the reason I wanted it was because I want to learn how to mod Civ 4 (but am still doing very basic XML editing) and I was hoping I could study how you implemented it and learn more, but I guess that's lost now. Thanks a lot for checking and have a great day!

Wow, people are going way back in time to look at some of my early work! I'm afraid that, as far as I can tell, the link has been dead since 2013. I've changed PCs multiple time since working on 12 years ago and it seems that the mod and any local files I had have been lost in the ether.

You can ask on the thread if anyone downloaded a copy 10 years ago and kept it, but I wouldn't hold my breath: https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/dynamic-city-development.335145/ . For the record, the mod was never finished and was never particularly stable or balanced, so you're not missing out on too much.
