Re: Supreme Ruler 2020 - can someone tell me how the economy system work? So I run a game as Democratic Republic of Congo. Currently the game time is second year and I already become the bread basket of Africa with my economy slowly move to consumer and industry goods. So, I've played Supeme Ruler 2020 for awhile now. I've got Supreme Ruler 2020 gold, not ultimate, but I figured since they are almost the same game, modding has to be similar. Has anyone made a video tutorial on how to do this? I've done countless campaigns and I want to make some custom units etc for nations, but the tutorial I did read on how to do modding honestly wasn't that great and didn. Browse and play mods created for Supreme Ruler 2020 at Indie DB.

Supreme Ruler 1936 and later (1936, Ultimate, and Great War) offer a great deal of moddability. As information is made available attempts will be made to catalogue it here.

SR1936, Ultimate and Great War are built on the same engine structure making data files compatible with each, however the file structure is slightly different:

• /Custom Folder for Supreme Ruler 1936 is in the root directory
• /Custom Folder for Supreme Ruler Ultimate is in /Scenario
• Scenarios in Supreme Ruler Ultimate are separated in to subfolders within /Scenario
• Some Modding tools (Map Editor, Scenario Creator & Asset Manager) are specifically designed for Supreme Ruler Ultimate.

What Can I Do?[edit | edit source]

With the release of Supreme Ruler Ultimate Update 9.1.76, new modding tools - the Map Editor, Scenario Creator & Asset Manager - have been released, making it easier to modify and create the data files used by the game engine. Additionally, most data files can be edited in plain text.

Take a look at a walkthrough for the new Scenario Creator/Map Editor:
