2. GameLogicData

GameLogicData, or GLD is a text file in game assets, which specifies most of the important game values, and is one of the main pillars of the game logic. It contains the properties of every unit, building, tech, tribe etc. in the game.

The next section will be about an easier and more powerful method, but you need to understand how the GLD file works to use it.

Each GLD has a specific version specified to it. Each GameVersion (GV) is tied to specific GLD version. Current GLD version is 22 and current GV version is 112.

GLD contains 9 main sections:

• TribeData
• TechData
• UnitData
• ImprovementData
• TerrainData
• ResourceData
• TaskData
• DiplomacyData
• SkinData
