Adaptable trait?

from GalCiv3 Forums

Im not sure this is working as it isnt allowing me to colonize xtreme planets.  I know it says lvl 1, but i dont see what those are when I find xtreme planets.  This is the XML;

 

<RaceTrait>
<InternalName>AdaptableAbility</InternalName>
<DisplayName>AdaptableAbility_Name</DisplayName>
<DisplayNameShort>AdaptableAbility_ShortName</DisplayNameShort>
<Description>AdaptableAbility_Desc</Description>
<IsAbility>1</IsAbility>
<Mod>
<EffectType>CanColonizeExtremeWorld</EffectType>
<Target>
<TargetType>Faction</TargetType>
</Target>
<BonusType>Flat</BonusType>
<Value>1</Value>
</Mod>
</RaceTrait>

 

I dont see anything that i know of to change in this, but was wondering if the targettype isnt right perhaps?  Will check some more, but wanted to get this out there to see if anyone has any solutions.

No solution, but in another thread someone reported that it only allows you to colonize barren worlds, not all types of extreme worlds.

well you should be able to colonice Frozen, Barren and Water worlds.

Toxic and radioactiv are Level 2

 

that is as it was in b4 and i didnt test it in b5 jet

Ahh Frozen, Barren, and Water...ok that gives me an idea of what to look for then.  Thanks!

Yup that was it..so it is working.../noob cake for me.  Thanks for the help though!

Make sure you really can colonize frozen and water, and not just barren.  Because that's what the other thread said, that only barren was colonizable.

Can confirm that only baren type is colonizable by this trait.. Don't know if it's a bug or a feature though.

Looking at the tooltips I would say a bug. Then again it could be a balace act and they forgot to change the tooltips.

Either the trait or the tooltip is wrong, so it's a bug either way.

Barren works...frozen does not...sigh

In another thread it's been stated that barren can only be colonized if you have the adaptable trait, and frozen and aquatic can only be colonized if you get the extreme worlds tech - which doesn't allow you to colonize barren.  If you don't have the adaptable trait there's no way to colonize barren worlds until this bug is fixed.

I am able to colonize barren, aquatic, and forzen either with Yor or my custom race using this trait. Haven't tried using anything else yet though.

the way it is written barren planets can only be colonized by the trait adaptable and adaptable only grants barren planets

however the yor tech tree grants aquatic and frozen planets this is separate from the adaptable trait. 

The extreme world colonization tech only grants frozen and aquatic planets.

And because Yor or any custom race that uses the Yor tech tree already have it researched before the game even starts they can cover all tier 1 extreme planets. That explains it.

Ahh I see so if you take just the adaptable(non Yor) you can do barren...Yor can do all 3 or if you take their tech tree...hmm

almost the yor dont get barren from their tech tree they get that from the adaptable trait  so if you have the yor tech tree without adaptable you can currently do aquatic and frozen at start
