Ethiopia question

[21oliver]

Its been awhile for me, but what do i need to edit in order for Italy to annex Ethiopia (its not an option via wargoal...), ive done it before, just cant remember what it was. And before those may ask why, its simply because for a particular play style whereby Italy annexes as opposed to puppets. One kingdom etc...

name = "Second Italo-Abyssinian War"

1935.10.3 = {
	add_attacker = ITA
	add_defender = ETH
	war_goal=
	{
		casus_belli=conquer
		actor="ITA"
		receiver="ETH"
	}
}

# Peace
1936.5.9 = {
	rem_attacker = ITA
	rem_defender = ETH
}

Remember, however, that there are also a few lines of code in the Italy LUA that will cause Italy to release Ethiopia as a puppet if Italy is AI controlled or the player allows the AI to control the politics (or is it diplomacy?) window for him.

I cant remember, do i just remove the above? or edit it in someway? And yes i think i recall that about the Diplomacy/Politics.... Thx

That is what you want it to look like. I think you change casus_belli=puppet to casus_belli=conquer.

ahhh Im a tad sleepy lol, TY for the help!

Edit. Now that I think of it I thought i remember you could edit the files and then do it via wargoal? Of course your way would be easier, i just cant remember how i used to do it.

I found the file (I had saved it...), I simply removed the wargoal, and then on Feb 1st added conquer via wargoal. Thx again...
