Hi,

I would like to modify the starting IC for a country in order to get more research slots. I would be grateful if someone could inform of either:

1) How to edit a file to increase the IC for a province before a game
or
2) How to get more base IC with a cheat code

Thanks in advance!

If you want extra IC for Germany in the 36 campaign, you would edit the file: scenarios/1936/germany.inc.

This is a part of the text in that file, and I added the free line:

Code:
#####################
# Country main data #
#####################

country =
{ tag                    = GER
  peacetime_ic_mod       = 0.9
  capital                = 300
  manpower               = 850
  transports             = 35
  escorts                = 23
  # Resource Reserves
  energy                 = 1000
  metal                  = 1000
  rare_materials         = 500
  oil                    = 500
  supplies               = 500
  money                  = 70
  [B]free = { IC = 5 }[/B]
  diplomacy =
  { relation = { tag = ARG value = 75 }
....

Here's an event for national or non-national IC:

#########################################################################
# New Construction
#########################################################################
event = {
id = 91199
random = no
persistent = yes

name = "New construction"
desc = "Industrial growth improves this quarter"
picture = "news_paper"
style = 0

action_a = {
name = "New domestic industry"
command = { type = construct which = ic where = -4 value = 1 }
}
action_b = {
name = "New colonial industry"
command = { type = construct which = ic where = -1 value = 1 }
}
}

you could have also gone into the files and made IC cost .1 and take a day to build. Though every other nation could do that too. I did that as Cuba
