Modding - Quick questions

[Andrelvis]

revoke_allowed is not needed, it is a legacy thing from very old versions and even then only on laws.

So no reason to ever have it on anything really, it will still work if you do have it but it does nothing

Thanks for the explanation! I had thought it did nothing, but was a required block anyway.

So I've never made a mod before but I've been thinking about this for a while. I searched in multiple areas and no one seems to have attempted it afaik.

I want to make the Seduce option from the Seduction focus always available to anyone of age regardless of their Focus. (If they have WoL of course.)

Is such a thing even possible? Bonus points in that I've been playing the AGOT mod and a certain 18+ mod and would ideally like it to be compatible with those but I understand that's a whole can of worms because not everyone is familiar with those. (Sorry for the censoring, I just don't know if mentioning the name of the 18+ mod is okay. It is off-site. If anyone would like me to specify I would be happy to PM you or something if that's okay with the forum moderators of course, I don't mean to cause trouble.)

Kind regards to whomever reads this!

Yeah, look up the Focus Plus mod on the steam workshop.

I'm trying to make a small event involving finding a rubix cube like item. When you find the cube you can ask someone to solve it for you. Depending on who they are I want there to be two different descriptions. One will say something along the lines of "The old man used his experience to solve the cube" etc etc.

The problem is that even if the person over 50 is selected the initial description always appears. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong here? Thank you.

desc = {
        text = rubix.Z16
        trigger = {
            FROM = {
                min_age = 16
                max_age = 50
                host = { character = ROOT }
            }
        }
    }


desc = {
        text = rubix.Z50
        trigger = {
            FROM = {
                min_age = 50
                max_age = 100
                host = { character = ROOT }
            }
        }
    }

 

[Rydelfox]

max_age and min_age are only used in pre-triggers. Instead the first should be

trigger = {
    FROM = {
        age = 16
        age <= 50
        host = { character = ROOT }
    }
}

With the second one being similar, but with the numbers swapped out.

As @HandicapdHippo said, you need a filter and probably an AI filter. Other targetted decisions also have this:

       revoke_allowed = {
           always = no
       }

A from_potential block might also be required.

I'm still having trouble with this one.

prisoner_of_war = {
        filter = all
        from_potential = {
        }
        potential = {
        ai = no
        }
        allow = {
        ai = no
        }
        effect = {
        any_province = {
        if = {
            limit = { is_occupied = FROM }
            imprison = ROOT
            }
        }
        }       
        ai_will_do = {
        factor = 0
        }
    }

prisoner_of_war = {
        filter = all
        from_potential = {
        }
        potential = {
        ai = no
        }
        allow = {
        ai = no
        }
        effect = {
        any_province = {
        if = {
            limit = { is_occupied = FROM }
            imprison = ROOT
            }
        }
        }   
        ai_will_do = {
        factor = 0
        }
    }

Use this:

prisoner_of_war = {
        filter = all
        only_playable = yes
        ai = no
      
        from_potential = { ai = no }
        potential = { is_landed = yes }
        allow = {
            any_demesne_province = { controlled_by = FROM }
        }
        effect = { imprison = FROM }
}

1. you can use ai = no as a pretrigger to disable the AI from using it.
2. from_potential is the conditions for a character to have the decision available to him/her, in this case you the player
3. potential checks the target you right click on, in this case the person you're sieging
4. is_occupied only accepts yes or no. you'll want to use controlled_by instead
5. You're trying to imprison a province in ur original code, and using imprison = ROOT would have the character imprison themselves in this case.
6. you dont need an ai_will_do if the AI can't use the decision. Doesn't hurt, but doesn't do anything either.

How do I make a character in the history files have a different graphical culture and culture?

g_cul doesn't seem to work.

 

[Andrelvis]

Are dynamic variable names (like dynamic flags, making use of "@" in their name) possible?

 

[Rydelfox]

Set their culture to the graphical culture you want, then change their culture in an effect block

 

[Stupidity]

How do I make a character in the history files have a different graphical culture and culture?

g_cul doesn't seem to work.

it's g_cul for ethnicity (face) and cul for culture (clothing), analogous to gfx_culture and culture in console commands.

 

[crowdemon]

It only allows me to capture the holder of the title, not everybody else, is there another way to change that?
If one of his or her holdings (not capital) is under my control, then nothing should happen, since they are not there.

However, if it is their capital holdings that are under my control, then I should able to capture them.

Is there any way to distinct merchant republic title localization from normal republic? Or at least make different tittle for vassal republics then free one.

 

[CorpusIurisCivilis]

Heya folks! Is someone willing to give my "Western Roman Empire" mod a look to check for any faults?
Much appreciated.

The mod contains the Title for the Western Roman Empire along with some attempts at decisions and events for the new title

Hey guys, I'm working on my first mod and need some help with modding "create a new vassal"

I'm trying to make it so that if you are of a certain religion group anybody you create with the "create a new vassal" option will spawn with a certain trait. I'm pretty sure I could get it working if I could just find where the code for "create a new vassal" is located, but I've searched around and have absolutely no idea.

Any help you guys could offer would be great!

Try using command to make new character, then scope it, give him selected titles and finally make it your vassal. Character creating command have option to add selected traits as far as I know.

 

[Teutonic King]

Does this line of code mean that I, the creator of the title, need to hold them? Or can it be that a vassal of mine holds them as well?

AND = {
has_landed_title = d_jerusalem
has_landed_title = d_baghdad
has_landed_title = d_athens

If you are referred to the button when you right-click on a holding, that's hard-coded. In that case, you'll need to create a maintenance event to add the traits.

Does this line of code mean that I, the creator of the title, need to hold them? Or can it be that a vassal of mine holds them as well?

AND = {
has_landed_title = d_jerusalem
has_landed_title = d_baghdad
has_landed_title = d_athens

You need to hold them personally. For vassals to hold them too, you could try

AND = {
    d_jersusalem = { de_jure_liege_or_above = PREV }
    d_baghdad = { de_jure_liege_or_above = PREV }
    d_athens = { de_jure_liege_or_above = PREV }
}

There may be better ways to do it, but I just woke up.

 

[Teutonic King]

Thank you, that will help out tremendously.

I have this little snippet that randomize religions for rulers and provinces. It works but I want it to make the rulers religion the same as his province. If he's Hindu, I want all of his province to be hindus, if he's sunni muslim, his provinces should also be muslim.

Is there a way to do that?

random_religion = {
       potential = {
           ai = no
       }

       allow = {
           always = yes
       }

       effect = {
           hidden_tooltip = {
               any_character = {
                   random_list = { # Randomize Religion
                       30 = { religion = sunni }
                       30 = { religion = catholic }
                       10 = { religion = jewish }
                       6 = { religion = hindu }
                       6 = { religion = buddhist }
                       3 = { religion = zoroastrian }
                       3 = { religion = west_african_pagan_reformed }
