I know that a key unique ability hasn't been realized. But in mod are already nations in fashion that suffer from this, like Georgia.

These should be unique buildings, not a proper UA. UA should be replaced with a comment mentioning this. I think(?) the buildings shouldn't be displayed in the civilopedia

[DeStup]

The problems here:

• If we add "replace" and "hidden for civilopedia" for uniq building, then link in the civilopedia's Cathedral(vanilla) breaks.
  It can still be bought for faith..

Can still be bought with faith would be a problem here regardless, so I'm actually not concerned about that here. Also, that can be dealt with

Also, I'm pretty sure it doesn't break the link for the original cathedral. It would only break the link in the cathedral's entry that links to the replacement, which is... fine. The point of making these hidden from the civilopedia is to avoid their nation entry from showing a ton of buildings that's not actually particularly relevant (they don't do anything particularly noteworthy besides being buildable)

I didn't quite get it

• In lekmod, Georgia can't buy these buildings for faith. She has to build them.
  As if it makes no sense to let it be built if it can be bought anyway (And it will always be more profitable than building). And we can't turn it off yet, or am I wrong?

• I don't like it. It seems to contradict the principle of Unciv and Civilopedia.
  

But maybe I would have accepted it if it hadn't been for point 1.

1. So, a bit of a historical note: It used to be able to be bought or built if I remember correctly, and then that was changed at some point. So this isn't that big a deal if that's off here imo and it's far more important that the buildings are buildable
2. More importantly I'm pretty sure I can switch the uniques around for the beliefs and the buildings so the beliefs don't inherently make the buildings purchasable. Haven't looked into it too deeply yet, but I'm fairly certain the uniques works for this

I'd normally agree, but leaving the buildings in the civilopedia clogs up the nation screen for them, which imo is much worse. And the important thing to note there is solely that it's buildable and that it gives production

Ok, double checked this... I need a new unique for this to be implemented, but I'm probably not far off from my original idea

Now you can set the buildings to be unable to be purchased by faith. As far I'm concerned, that should end the discussion there. Whether the buildings are hidden from the civilopedia or not, I do consider it necessary to be replacement unique buildings rather than as a nation unique, and will consider that aspect of this to be a blocker towards merging this PR
