How can I put the revolt risk up from event effects from the start of the scenario with no events trigger?

 

[kolmy]

I try to create a country:
I add the name of the new country in text.csv
I create a country definition for the scenario
I add the info in the country.csv

and the eu2 don't start

Somebody help, please :wacko:

Response to EU2 will not start

The most likely reason is your country definition file. You should double check a few items in your new country's definition file:

1) Make sure that ownedprovinces = { } and controlled provinces = { } contain the same numbers such as:

ownedprovinces = { 100 110 }
controlled provinces = { 100 110 }

2) Make sure the each province listed in ownedprovinces = { } and controlled provinces = { } has a city in the country definition file such as:

ownedprovinces = { 100 110 }
controlled provinces = { 100 110 }

city = {
fortress = { level = 1 }
population = 15000
location = 100
}
city = {
fortress = { level = 1 }
population = 40000
location = 110
capital = yes
}

if you have a city not listed in ownedprovinces = { } or are missing a city listed in ownedprovinces = { } then I have found the game will not load. This is the most likely cause of your problem.

3) If #2 does not fix your problem then the next most likely cause is that you have the same city listed in more than one country's definition file. The easiest way to find this for example in the 1419 game is to put a # in front of your new country in the 1419.inc file then load the game and see if some other country has cities showing up where you hoped your new country's cities would be. If this is the case then put # in front of that country and then load again and repeat until no one has cities where you hope your new country's cities will be. Then remove the extra cities from the other files that you put # in front of in the 1419.inc file and then remove the #'s from the 1419.inc file. When you remove any duplicate cities also remember to remove the cities from the other countries ownedprovinces = { } and controlled provinces = { }. In other words you have to make sure that two countries do not own or control the same cities and that the same cities are not listed in more than one country's files.

Try to remember what countries you changed and double check their files as they are the ones most likely to need fixing.

4) If #3 does not fix the problem then if you have a event file for your new country there may be a problem with the events in it. To test this save a copy of the event file for your new country under a new name then delete anything in the original copy. Then try to load the game. If the game loads you have a problem with one of the events in your new country's event file.

I hope this helps.

Best Wishes

I try to find where the problem come from and it is from text.csv, if i change the name of a nation the game don't load. why is that?

I don't know why you are having this problem. I have changed names many times without any problems. You must be typing something incorrectly by mistake. All you should do is change the country name - nothing else. For example to rename the tag ZAP all you should do is replace Zapotec to New Name such as

ZAP;Zapotec;;;;;;;;;;6

to

ZAP;New Name;;;;;;;;;;6

Don't change anything else.

One possibility is how you are saving the file after you make your change. If you are using excel to do the change then make sure to save the file when done as a CSV file type and not xls. If you are using note pad to make the change then make sure when saving not to save it as a .txt but to choose all file types then save as .csv

You should be able to make the name change with out any problems.

I edited the text.csv with the note pad and now works fine, thanks
