Creating revoltrisk

[swilhelm73]

I'm working on a fairly simple scenario where I'm trying to create rather more medium sized states and cripple/remove all the larger states.

I don't want to do a ton of work though , so I've started by releasing just about every vassal possible, and I can just use a text editor to eliminate all the satellite lines.

This still leaves very powerful majors like the UK though.

It would seem to me an easy way to fix this is to give them mega loans, 0 literacy, negative prestige, and a serious and permanent revolt risk. I know how to manage all but the latter by hacking the save game file.

I imagine these three lines control this;

revolt = 0.000
revoltrisk = 0
revoltriskdate = { year = 0 month = january day = 0 }

But I'm not sure exactly how to set it and would appreciate any advice.

Look at the inventions that alter this, they are somewhere in the cultural inventions file. Those events reduce revolt risk by 1 for 2000 months, so basically just reverse them or their perceived effect.

Btw an interesting concept. Do you know revolters get the literacy of their master unless decided otherwise in revolt.txt?
