When I was using AIL's AI mod, it provided a function of hiding unnecessary improvements like "Sustainable Farming" at jungle planet only system. I would like to know, how it is done so I could include it to my personal mod compilation. So far I've found code, which makes the improvement unbuildable:

StarSystemImprovement.xml

[CODE]

StarSystemImprovementFood1

$(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeDesert,PlanetStatusColonized) or $(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeArid,PlanetStatusColonized) or $(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeArctic,PlanetStatusColonized) or $(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeTundra,PlanetStatusColonized)

(($(ClassStarSystem:ConsumptionPerFood) ge $(ClassStarSystem:PopOfMax) and $(ClassStarSystem:Population) lt $(ClassStarSystem:MaxSystemPopulation)) or $(ClassStarSystem:FoodSurplusToProductionBonus) gt 0 or $(ClassStarSystem:FoodSurplus) lt 0) and ($(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeDesert,PlanetStatusColonized) or $(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeArid,PlanetStatusColonized) or $(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeArctic,PlanetStatusColonized) or $(ClassStarSystem/PlanetTypeTundra,PlanetStatusColonized))

%StarSystemImprovementFood1Title

%StarSystemImprovementFood1Description

[/CODE]

But it doesn't make the icon for improvement to disappear. Could someone tell me the right way to make it work?

It makes it unbuildable but doesn't make the icon disappaer? That's strange. It always worked like that for me.

I even have something similar with the Emergency-Money-Building. It always disappears when the requirements are not met and reappears once they are fullfilled again.

Edit: I also always use the to test what the AI would see when I'm not sure. I really wonder why even davea says it woulnd't work anymore. oO Probably a bug that in some configurations it works and in others it doesn't.

The original author of that is grubsnik:

/#/endless-space/forum/37-modding/thread/15728-improved-star-system-improvement-listings

However, he wrote in another thread that it doesn't work anymore:

/#/endless-space/forum/37-modding/thread/15779-modding-bugs

If you have used his code (which it sounds like you have) and it is not working, then I am not aware of any other way to do it.

Hmm so it's not only my case. Anyway thanks a lot for response. Also I wasn't aware who was the original creator of this mod. Maybe some patch will fix it. I'm just wondering why devs don't put it into the game, but they have more important issues to deal with maybe.
