Fix to the Warlord core spread events.

Hello.

Small correction for \history\countries\RUS - Russia.txt (PDM 4.2.9):

disabled two inventions from startup since main technologies haven't been invented yet.

#commerce_raiders = yes
#initial_muzzle_loaded_rifle_armament = yes

Attachment 39643

Things like this should probably go in the User Made Tweaks thread.

Okay! New events and such to upload:

* All uses of state_scope have been fixed (as per the hotfix)

* Militant Conservatives have been removed as a rebel type. Conservatives are now likely to support either Reactionaries (when low literacy and/or consciousness) and Jacobins otherwise. Socialists are now more likely to support Communist rebels when their needs fulfillment is low.

* Fixed the Sepoy Rebel win conditions. Also added Indian Nationalists (which work like Pan-Nationalists) to appear after a "Rise of Indian Nationalism" event fires (sometime after Revolution & Counter-Revolution is researched). There are now occasional events which fire that can cause Indian revolts-- both in the Princely States and in British territory.

* Added "sub-unions" for India: Hindustan, Marathas, Dravidistan and Rajputana. Also added Durrani Empire and Baluchistan countries. Karnatak has been added to the Carnatic region in southern India.

* Added decisions for Panjab to embrace Pashtun, Sindi and Avadhi cultures if territory belonging to those cultures is controlled. Ranjit Singh decision changed to fire at the beginning of the game, adding a leader trait and western influences. Also added a "Claim Greater Bengal" decision for Bengal (should it exist).

* UK decision to create Panjab Dominion has been removed. UK/Panjab relations start off warmer-- once the Ranjit Singh general dies, there's a "Death of Ranjit Singh" event which will lower relations and grant UK a CB (as well as add militancy).

* Added new region in southern Panjab. Rearranged a number of Indian cores.

Some new stuff:

* Added most of Kalelovil's changes to Southeast Asia-- the Lao countries plus Lan Xang as a union, Lan Na, Champassak and Kutei (which has been factored into the Dutch East India events and Indonesian Union). Includes Annexation of Lan Na and Flores Sale decisions. Most province changes short of Api remaining with Brunei and Pontianak going to Lanfang instead.

* The Suez & Panama canals can now have their construction halted if the province they're in is taken over by someone else (who can then continue construction themselves, if they enact the decision). If the province is taken over after construction, the new owner will receive the yearly dividends.

* The construction of the Panama Canal will initiate an event chain with the owner, which may refuse the treaty and result in the event initiator either separating Panama into a sphered state or relenting and losing influence.

* MTTH on Conquest of the Desert and Pacification of Araucania events lowered.

* Dahomey and Oyo included.

Fix to the Panjab embrace culture decisions, as per the hotfix.

New stuff:

* Changed the Brother's War CB back to Take From Sphere rather than the Clear Sphere (while still requiring S&G to use). Tried this out and suddenly the AI does indeed invoke it, as opposed to trying to take territory (while I couldn't get the AI to use the regular CB no matter what). If you'd prefer not to use this, Nas, just leave the cb_types file out.

* Some tweaks to the rebel_types file, including making the Angry Rebels once again not applicable to civilized countries. So far in tests it seems to have worked okay.

* Fix to the "Claim Nejd" and "Claim Hail" decisions so they still worked even after the House of Saud or House of Rashid had been exiled.

* The Guominjun event now fires only once. Also, reunifying China removes any cores for cliques that only came into being with the Warlord Era events, provided the unifying country controls them when the decision is enacted.

* March of the Thousand and Italian Call to Union cannot be used while at war.

* Modified the "Fall of Egypt" event to be a bit easier for the AI to fire-- it requires all Ottoman cores to be occupied OR Cairo to be occupied. If a GP is currently helping Egypt, the chance of them refusing to surrender is higher.

* Fixed the "Rename Oslo" event for Norway to prevent it from refiring and thus giving Norway 10 prestige every couple of years.

* Added a province event to fire up the Carlists in Spain every now and again.

* Changed the "Death of Hong Xiuquan" event so the AI is far less likely to become/join Qing if it currently doesn't exist.

* Added the missed flags for Lan Na.

* Added localizations for the new inventions, plus the rebel tooltip. Changed localization for a monarchy Panjab to "Sikh Empire".

* Changed Hungary to wealth voting from landed voting. Changed Uruguay back to a presidential dictatorship.

* Raised relations between Qing and Panjab to start.

[Rylock]

This should fix the WorldFairs.

[Rylock]

Some more events/fixes:

* changed Bahrain's color to be more markedly different from Abu Dhabi's.

* lowered prestige gain from the enforce debt CB.

* fix to the Indian Nationalists rebel group. Also a fix to the militant socialists (so they should now only appear for socialist and communist pops, as opposed to liberal pops as well).

* renaming Edo decision will rename the state as well.

* MTTH increased for the Great War CB-granting events.

* Fixed the Indian Nationalist win event. Also reduced the militancy from the "Rise of Indian Nationalism" event-- think I overdid it.

* Fixed Hungarian Revolution to only occur once.

* Canada no longer accepts British culture, as per vanilla change.

* Fixed some localization errors that were reported.

Okay, some new stuff:

* Changed Hungary's conservative party so it has a start date of 1836 and not 1866 (this is why Hungary keeps getting taken over by anarcho-liberals).

* Took out the "clear alliances" bit from rebels. Also expanded the boxers a bit to include conservatives as well as reactionaries.

* Exchanged Baoding and Peking's positions. Again.

* NGF and SGF now have "lesser" formation decisions -- meaning that, once Revolution & Counter-Revolution is researched, they can still form even if German cores are being held by non-Germanic countries. They must still have all member states in their sphere, though there's a chance that some countries won't join even if sphered.

* Failing the above, NGF has a "last-ditch" event which can prompt its formation. It requires either Mass Politics or Revolution & Counter-Revolution... but the latter only applies if North German provinces other than Schleswig are being held by a non-Germanic country. The chance of countries not joining is higher with this version.

* Added decisions for NGF/SGF to revert back to a member state if they get reduced to having only the one.

* Fixed the Berlin Congress so Turkish cores are properly removed from Bosnia.

* Added the new demand concession CB's to the random event which grants them (it was only granting the original CB).

* Added an event for UK which can try to re-claim a Princely State which has rebelled, and make it back into a vassal (through the Cut Down to Size CB).

* Changed Scandinavian union event to release a vassal if the owner chooses to conquer them (had Sweden going to war with a vassal Norway in one test).

* Added the new Egypt flags (modified slightly).

* Removed a number of techs from the African countries-- mostly Freedom of Trade and Flintlock Rifles.

[Rylock]

This includes:

* Fix to the canal events. Nothing was wrong with them, really, other than the new event numbers were simply too high to register. Tested it to work, now.

* Fix to the Hidalgo Treaty decision for the USA, and the event that leads to the Mexican-American War.

Some new stuff:

* Added more breakdown into the rebel types file, so it's not only the ideology with the biggest percentage that adds a bonus to a pop joining a particular group. Having the biggest percentage helps, but a pop that is 20% communist can still join the communist rebels if the conditions for their higher-percentage ideologies don't apply.

* Forming the Durrani Empire now adds a core to Quetta.

* Revamped how the expansion of Chile and Argentina into Patagonia works. It should be a little faster, now, and follow a set pattern (Chile will start with Orsorno now instead of Punta Arenas). Also added an adjacency between Rio Gallegos and Rio Grande, as that's why Argentina was never taking it previously.

* Fixed up the Argentina Constitution event series so Brazilian intervention is more likely.

* Added localization for the new factory types, as well as the new Education reform. Fixed a few other reported localization errors.

* Switched Peking and Baoding again.

* Edited the events for a non-SP Portugal to colonize Cabinda and the rest of Angola/Mozambique to be a bit more likely. Also raised the LR on three provinces interior to Portugal's territory.

* Removed the Lan Xang cores (the Create Lao decision adds those cores anyhow) and removed the extraneous Luang Prabang cores.
