Thrones and Palaces

A Palace fit for a King Your people are so impressed with your rule that they have offered to make improvements to the Palace or Throne Room! Updated 2021-11-27 New: Localisation Fixes ( see all changes) Upgrade your palace from an unfurnished cave to a grand building with a magnificent throne room fit for an immortal dictator, if you can persuade your people that you are worthy. If you remember the Throne Room from Civ 2 or the Palace from Civ 3 this will look and feel very familiar, with a few additions. Accessed from the Palace and Throne Room button on the Launch Bar (top left of the screen), there are two tabs one for the Palace, and one for the Throne Room. This is a purely cosmetic, flavour mod. It has no gameplay effects, and can be safely added to (or removed from) in-progress games. But you will only earn upgrade points while the mod is enabled so it is best added at the start of a game. Earning Upgrades Upgrade points are shared between the palace and throne room, and can be used to make improvements to either. Points are earned passively as you develop your civilisation, when you hit certain milestones your people might be impressed enough to reward you with an upgrade. The majority, but not all, of these milestones are tied to the Historic Moments of the game's Era system. Exacty what milestones can give points, and the chance of actually getting a point for a given milestone, depend on the difficulty level chosen (see options below), by default you should earn plenty of points without too much trouble. The best way to earn points is to not worry about it and just play the game! Building Upgrades If you have upgrade points available, moving the mouse over the image of either the palace or the throne room will show what upgrades are possible. Left clicking will then build the selected upgrade. Some pieces have multiple styles that you can choose from, a messgae is shown when this is the case, and you can cycle through the available styles by right clicki
