Changing building costs in Advanced Genie Editor not working

I’ve tried everything to change the cost of the Town Center of a custom Civ to have its Stone cost * 2 be added to wood, but no matter how I change the wood price (Attribute set, attribute modifier (+/-), even attribute modifier (multiply) as seen in the image (I was desperate). After all that, the price of a town center is always simply 275 wood. I was unable to change this for stone walls and gates too, they would always be Free after 0ing out the stone cost no matter how much I added wood cost to their class or even to each individual unit type. Does anyone know where I could be going wrong? Every other building is affected by my changes correctly besides Stone Walls/Gates and Town Centers

For example: In the case of the Town Center, you have to change the cost in ALL Town Centers of the respective Age. If you want to change the cost in unit 109, you also have to change it in units 618, 619, 620, and 621. You have to create an effect for each of these units because the Town Center is 5 units in one.
In the case of the gates, it’s also the same as the Town Center, but with more units in one. You have to change it in all these units of the respective Age for it to work.

I think I tried that in Ror but it didn’t work, I’ll try again, maybe I did something wrong.

Perfect, thank you very much, that worked! In the future, how can I know for certain which buildings of a certain type will need to be changed? For instance, in this case there are 21 potential Town Centers that could be changed, but we only changed 5. Originally I thought only the ones where Hide in Editor were not checked needed to be changed, but 618-621 all have it checked so obviously my intuition was wrong there. So how would I know, for instance, which Gates to add a wood cost to?

You need to change the cost on ALL GATES, except those named: “Palisade Gate”, “Trowulan Gate”, “Sea Gate”, “City Gate”.
The Feudal Age gates are those named: “Gate”.
The Castle Age gates are those named: “Fortified Gate”.
