Also, is there any way to store a variable to an event,

use a local variable, it will be accessible anywhere in the event chain.

e.g.
set_variable = { which = local_myvar value = 1 }

e.g.
set_variable = { which = local_myvar value = 1 }

yes, but would it then be attached to a specific character? as in, will it behave like a character variable that clears itself after the event chain is over, or is it the equivalent of a global variable localized to a single event chain?

yes

Is it possible use the PREV scope in localisations? as in, if I have [char1.char2.CustomCommand], can I use PREV in CustomCommand to refer to char1? Also, is there any way to store a variable to an event, instead of a character/province/title/whatever?

You can use Prev in customizable localisation and localisation commands, yes. I've successfully tested it myself.

thanks! it opens up so many new possibilities

I edited the governments and laws and removed everything muslim, hre and chinese related. The game loads to the character select and map, the game even loads, but when the welcome to CK2 screen appears, I can't click next, because it crashes. Maybe it's related to the edited laws and governments, but I suspect something wrong with cultures. The Validator only shows localisation errors, that shouldn't be a problem. But the weirdest thing is, that the game crashes, when I click on the cultures mapmode. Religions work fine and every other single mapmode, only cultures isn't. The error only says this, that I think is related.

[character.cpp:10839]: Failed to generate first name for a male of the noculture"

EDIT: I found out, that character groups had no color assigned. I corrected this issue, but I still have this. Religions work fine, and every province has the culture defined. So why am I seeing this?

EDIT2: I actually found out, that I shouldn't add color to culture group, only to cultures. But with removing it, I have a crash again, when I click on cultures mapmode.

 

[SRTX_999]

Still have no idea what causes the crash, when I click on culture map. And what causes noculture. Validator says nothing.

can you invoke a custom localisation command in another custom localisation command? I one where the conditions are branching with two levels and i figured that instead of putting ~20 localisation keys into one custom command I could have a central command that routes to the other ones

You can indeed, as of patch 2.7.

I can't remember if I have already asked this: Is there a way to build a random building in a holding? I found the command to destroy a random building, and I was wondering if there was a way to reverse it.

random_list is probably your best bet.

 

[Rockphed]

random_list is probably your best bet.

So there isn't an inverse of "destroy_random_building"? Ah, well. There goes the easy way to future proof my mod.

can you compare two variables using check_variable or is_variable_equal, and if so, is the syntax check/set_variable = { which = var1 which = var2 }?

 

[Silversweeeper]

You can compare variables, yes, and check_variable can have "<", "<=" , "==" (equal to is_variable_equal), ">=" (equal to simply "="), and ">" in front of var2, similar to how it works if you compare var1 to a fixed value.

So how would it look like?
check_variable = { var 1 >= var2 }
or
check_variable = { which = var 1 which >= var2 }
or would it be something else?

The second.

Hello everyone, I have a question about creating reformed religions.
Is there a way to enable a feature in a religion by command? i.e. can I give a religion access to haruspicy by event?
Thanks a lot!

Commands - Crusader Kings II Wiki

just ctrl-f religion

I know you can add features in through save files, so there shouldn't be any reason why you can't do that with commands

 

[swampy111]

I know that if there are several texts whose conditions are true, than a random one is chosen; is there any way to define the odds of that happening through localisation (i know its' possible to achieve the same through random lists in the effects block, but that would make the code incredibly inwieldy considering what i hope to achieve)? And by that, i mean any method other than duplicating the texts?

I'd like to quote a previous post as an answer, it's helpful and detailed.

That allows us to duplicate many religious features, but not all. For example we can't add Ancestor Veneration as all the effects specifically check whether the religion has the feature in question.

The features we could fully implement through script are: Warmongering, Unyielding, Peaceful, Dogmatic, Cosmopolitan, Divine Marriage, Polygamy, Meritocracy, Unrelenting, Sea Bound, Daring, Religious Tax

The features we can partially implement are: Proselytizing (can't replicate conversion bonus), Stability (can't use Mellorism stat boost decision), Monasticism (can't use forcing vows decision)

The features for which we can implement some effects, but not the main effect: Animism (can only implement morale bonus), Enatic Clans (can only add consorts and prohibit concubines), Equality (can only add consorts), Agnatic Clans (can only prohibit consorts for African and Bon)

The features we can't implement at all are: Ancestor Veneration, Syncreticism, Haruspicy, Bloodthirsty Gods

I'm unsure about leadership. Anyway, we can fully implement through script 5 out of 6 natures and 7 out of 17 doctrines. That still gives us 105 potential combinations, which is decent, but we could have hundreds more if there was a scripting command to add a religious feature.



Can you elaborate on what you mean by "A flag for the religion should be able to control basic functionality for that title"?
