Modding - Quick questions

[Arko]

No. Buildings can't directly affect characters.

ok thanks.
does a list of valid buildings effects exist ? (apart from those used in vanilla).

is the "tech_growth_modifier" effect can target a specific tech group (cultural tech group f.e.) ?

What should be the ideal screen resolution when modding a custom image as a loading screen?

If I remember rightly, the loading screens from the game are 1920 x 1440

Something along this line (calling event/decision is left as an exercise):

character_event = {
	id = xxxx
	desc = "EVTDESCxxxx"

	is_triggered_only = yes
	
	trigger = {
		is_female = yes
		is_married = yes
		is_pregnant = no
		NOT = { age = 45 }		#I assume you don't want post-menopause pregnancies
		religion = fertility_cult		#or whatever your religion is
	}
	
	option = {
		name = "EVTOPTAxxxx"
		
		spouse = {
			ROOT = {
				impregnate = PREV
			}
		}
	}
}

Can I make this override other limitations, such as age?

 

[richvh]

If you remove that age test, it will impregnate your character's 80 year old great-grandmother if she meets the other conditions.

 

[fargoniac]

I mean impregnating 3 year olds.

 

[Nuril]

I mean impregnating 3 year olds.

wat

Marriageable age is in defines.lua and I don't see why it'd make a special exception beyond that, but.. wat.

 

[Darkgamma]

I tend to have infants having kids in the name of genetics.

 

[fargoniac]

How?

 

[Darkgamma]

defines.lua modification
Kids have kids so I can see traits that pop out.

 

[fargoniac]

What modification?

 

[richvh]

	AGE_OF_MARRIAGE = 16,							-- Allowed to marry at this age.
	MAX_CHILD_BIRTH_AGE = 45,						-- Female menopause age.

Any married woman under the age of menopause can have legitimate children. Using the impregnate effect will cause any character it's applied to to have children.

 

[fargoniac]

Not 2 year olds.

 

[Korbah]

This is taking a decidedly twisted and sickening turn to be honest with you, this discussion ends now.

If I don't want events to conflict with the default event numbers, where can I go? Does it have to be 6 characters long? How can I tell if there's a conflict?

 

[unmerged(589171)]

If I don't want events to conflict with the default event numbers, where can I go? Does it have to be 6 characters long? How can I tell if there's a conflict?

Events don't have to consist only of numbers, so you can prefix your IDs with a few choice letters to avoid conflict. If I, say, stuck "txp." in front of all of my event names, the chances of conflict would be utterly minimal.

You can even go so far as to add a prefix that relates to the specific piece of script. For example, in the Game of Thrones mod, the id for the first Aegon's Landing event is as follows:

narrative_event = {
	[COLOR="#00FF00"]id = aegons_landing.1[/COLOR]
	desc = "EVTDESCaegons_landing.1"
	title = "EVTTITLEaegons_landing.1"
	picture = "GFX_targaryen_balerion"

Hope that helps!

 

[ZechsMerquise73]

Thanks very much. Now that makes more sense than what I was thinking.


Is it possible to target a dead lover by event?

Does the "OR" scalar (Scalar: like if/NOT/etc) override other trigger qualifiers, or it simply a list of potentials, only one of which being required to activate an event? For example:

trigger = {
                  if = { province_id = 798 } # Delta
                  OR = { trait = has_typhus
                         trait = eats_babies
            }
}

Will trigger if character has province 798 and has typhus or eats babies?
