[Mitchz95]

The 1.5.1 patch fixes this.

I have still Trouble with this **** in V1.5.1 (BETA) - Anyone Else ? - Is It fixed or Not ?!

Edit:
Ok, I have figured It out - Strange Thing.

 

[zakzak]

What is the new format? I am trying to get it working but it still seems to be having issues.

Within the File: Just change the Stuff, What You want + Just delete the Stuff, Which You don't change + save + rename the File.

 

[COSIAN]

The new .txt file still has what appear to be section headers ....

NGameplay = {
ALLOW_EMPIRE_DESIGN_CHEATS = no
VICTORY_CONDITION_DOMINATION = 0.4
VICTORY_CONDITION_FEDERATION = 0.6

So if I want to change

VICTORY_CONDITION_DOMINATION = 0.4

to

VICTORY_CONDITION_DOMINATION = 0.5

do I just include the line I want to change in my 01_defines.txt file or must I include the section header and footer??

 

[COSIAN]

Just an update .... with 1.5.1 beta ....

created cos1_defines.txt in mymod/common/defines

included just the following text in the file for the values I wanted to change ...

---------------------------------------------------------

NGameplay = {
LEADER_POOL_SIZE = 5 # Each leader pool will consist of this many leaders
LEADER_BASE_CAP = 15
LEADER_AGE_DEATH_CHANCE_AGE = 80 # Before this age the chance wont increase
DEBRIS_RESEARCH_TIME = 60 # How many days it takes to analyze 1 debris.
NUM_TECH_ALTERNATIVES = 4
TECH_COST_FREE_POPS = 40 # First X pops do not add any tech cost
}

---------------------------------------------------------

This seems to be working .....

 

[Shuul]

This is not working for me:
NGameplay = {
NAVY_SIZE_POP_MULT = 0.1
NAVY_SIZE_SPACEPORT_LEVEL = { 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12 }
NAVY_SIZE_HABITAT_ADD = 6 # Per habitat
}

Any suggestions?

Edit:
Ok, I have figured It out - Strange Thing.

So in the beta NDefines.NGameplay.ANOMALY_SPAWN_CHANCE = 1.0 no longer works?

This is not working for me:
NGameplay = {
NAVY_SIZE_POP_MULT = 0.1
NAVY_SIZE_SPACEPORT_LEVEL = { 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12 }
NAVY_SIZE_HABITAT_ADD = 6 # Per habitat
}

Any suggestions?

Did you copy the 00_defines file, rename it, delete the contents and put in the stuff you want to change?

 

[Shuul]

yeah, found the mistake, commas are not used now

 

[kaceyshadow]

Got a mod that adjusted the 00_defines as well, I have the file in the common/defines/ section on the mod, renamed the file machi0_defines.txt

I removed the old code that used the NDefines.NGameplay method and replaced it with

NGamplay = {
ETHOS_MAX_POINTS = 60
GOVERNMENT_CIVIC_POINTS_BASE = 8
}

NSpecies = {
MAX_ETHIC_POINTS = 60
MAX_TRAIT_POINTS = 99
MAX_TRAITS = 99
MAX_TRAIT_POINTS_LEADER = 10
MAX_TRAIT_POINTS_RULER = 10
}

however when starting up the game, it loads in all fine but none of the changes are showing it is like it is not even reading the defines file that i have setup

Update: Moved game to the 1.5.1 beta, and the trait's work now however the ethics do not seem to register nor the civics. I even tried removing the Civic line and still the ethics do not adjust.

 

[Nerz]

Can someone help me? Only changes on 1.5.1. beta or 1.5. is 3 Civics point and start with only 1 pop and without ships, but start buildings is still spawns.
Code:

    NGameplay = {
        MIN_HABITABILITY = 0.00        # Planet habitability must be at least this value to be able to colonize
        TECH_COST_MULT_NUM_COLONIES                = 0.0 # Each Planet adds +X% tech cost
        TECH_COST_FREE_POPS                        = 0 # First X pops do not add any tech cost
        TECH_COST_MULT_NUM_POPS                    = 0.00 # Each non-free Pop adds +X% tech cost
    }

    NSpecies = {
        MAX_TRAIT_POINTS                     = 30
        MAX_TRAITS                             = 10
    }

    NArmy = {
        EXP_EXPERIENCED                    = 0
        EXP_VETERAN                        = 0
        EXP_ELITE                        = 0
        ATTACHMENT_SLOTS                = 4
    }
}

you have an extra bracket at the end that I don't believe should be there other than that I'm not sure what you are having trouble with,

I delete this bracket, but trouble is not solved. Any ideas why that can be?
And + to that MEGSTRUCTURES IS NOT BUILD! They just vanish after construction ship ends his work! I'm realy desapointed by desigion make 00_defines.lua a non .lua file. That makes much more troubles than good. If that makes any good.

Whats the name of your file, it should not be 00_defines. name it to something like 11_defines.txt.

I am scruled up, thats(start with 1 pop and without ships, unbuildable megastructures) not because my mod and now i try to finde problem mod. But my file named 01_defines.

After three hours of attempting to get my mod to work, I finally figured out that 00_defines is no longer a lua file, so any mod that relies on this is broken, so I'm posting this thread to save a fellow modder why his/her mod is no longer working.(It's also one of the first tutorials to get into modding Stellaris.)

Basically anything that relies on something like this: NDefines.NGameplay.ANOMALY_SPAWN_CHANCE = 1.0 no longer works. Which pretty much broke my Anomaly spawn chance mods.

Changing the 00_defines file to a lua file sadly crashes the game.

I looked a few buried bug threads, and there seems to be no solution for now.

I learned the same thing today. It has been a long time since I was modding that I thought it was changed earlier and not with banks.

What is the new format? I am trying to get it working but it still seems to be having issues.

Don't know if it makes a diff but your file has leading spaces on each line so even if you removed the last bracket the leading spaces might be an issue...
