File modifications

[Louis-Philippe]

I have some questions to you guru of the editing:

1) is it possible to modify the technology speed?

2) Is it possible to change the effects of the tech levels (ex: assaults on land level 5)?

3) how can i add a functionnal harbor in a province? I created an harbor in Roma, modified the land type of the province (coastal) but, my fleet can't enter or leave the harbor... Do you know what is the problem??

Thank you

You have to specify adjacent seazones.

Re : Tech.

Hello LP2le_retour,

Comment allez-vous ? Bien évidemment.

I think that this will be very hard to change by editing; I presume
that these factors are hardcoded in EU2.exe. So :

3. I don't now; never needed it;

2. Hardcoded I assume;

1. Yes that's something you can change or better influence.
In the FAQ you will find some dates. When you reach a level
of techno before that date, the higher will be the price to go
to the next level.
How to to avoid that ?
When we suppose, the price to reach level 5 is set to 100%,
that price will go up very much and certainly after level 7 :
cannons available. The trick is now : don't buy any cannon and
the techno prices are going down. For instance, the price to
reach level 9, without any gun in your armies, will be : 19% of
the amount of money you needed to reach level 5. Astonishing
but real (and the date is of no importance).

Au revoir !

1. The technology is bounded to date I think (before 1419 hardly any technological improvement for example), but I see in de land.csv certain values of expected date of discovery. Don`t know if changing it would have effect but you can try.

2. IIRC you can change the effect on morale and the fire/shock(?) value for every tech-level but the other effects are hardcoded

thank you I'm now able to change this "harbor of nowhere"

Yes, changing the dates in land.csv and naval.csv (or whatever the second one is) will change the dates when technologies should be researched.

IT WILL NOT! Try entering some wild date, and you'll see that time for building armies will be much greater!
I've modified some values in naval.csv file, and my fleet was building instead of 9 months it was building 2900 months!

 

[unmerged(10971)]

That's odd. Never happened to me...

Perhaps because all I changed was the year. You may have changed the other values.

eeemmm, no I did not...
Just replaced period 1419-1819 with 1991-2180...
