I am trying to figure out how to create an event to bring a character back to life who is dead. Any suggestions?

That sounds impossible unfortunately. There's no command I know of that can reverse death.

 

[RSXS]

I'm trying to create a trait that can't be randomly generated to characters, and must be passed down from a current ruler. Is there a way to do this?

I am trying to figure out how to create an event to bring a character back to life who is dead. Any suggestions?

What you can do is create an event that creates a new character, but it would have to be absolutely HUGE to account for age, traits, character flags and so on.

I am trying to re-draw somewhat de de jure map of Western Europe, and the game just crashed after I defined duchies belonging to no kingdom and kingdoms belonging to no empire. So, before I start searching a missing bracket or another stupid mistake, I thought I would ask if that is still allowed with the latest patches.

So basically, I've run into a problem with Horde invasion events. I'm creating a small mod wherein an ASB has Vercingetorix's army teleport from 52 BC to whenever the event fires, specifically into the province of Dijon.

I honestly don't know what the problem could be, but the horde doesn't declare war against the holder of the territory it spawns in. The bit in red is what the relevant part.

I've defined Gaulish culture as a horde and also set the character flag, but no dice. It's a bit weird considering I copied it from the Seljuk event.

[Nivve]

I've acknowledged the help, I did everything asked, notepad++, the validator. But none of the brackets seem to be unclosed to me, even with going through it with Notepad++-everything closes up properly with nothing left outside the markers. There's nothing not matching up as far as I can see. And the Validator isn't telling me where within the Adventures file the problem is-no line number or anything.

The result is the help...isn't exactly helpful. And I'm still stuck with an unplayable game. I can't understand what I'm looking for or looking at despite having done minor modification before.

What else can I do but scream for help?

Acknowledging is not the same as using a suggestion, it is stating here that you used it (or not) and what the results were. If the suggestions were unhelpful, then tell us!
I noted that the bracket of line 15 was only closed around line 636, did you also find this? Did you closed it but the validator still finds errors? If the last thing is true, then it is probably useful to insert the next file instead of only saying 'Well, game's busted'. Did the game get bust due to one of our suggestions, we simply don't know!
There is no mention of you stating that you actually used the help and you stating what it did. Aside from my own suggestion, did Postm00v's suggestion help? I cannot find it in your posts.

You can argue I am nitpicking about the way you write the posts (I know the frustrationg, believe me), but it is in your benefit to state these things. We then have the information to solve your problem. If you use suggestions (and fix other things yourself), how can we know what broke it without you posting the the changed file? You can of course release frustration, but remain constructive, it will help you.

Whoops! I put this in a new thread instead of a new post. Anyway, my question is this:

Hey there - sorry if this is obvious, but I've tweaked all I can and it still isn't appearing (although I got the retinue appearing [and labeled!] just fine...). Is there some trigger I'm missing? Any observations would be valuable.

Is this a decision or an event? If the retinue is appearing as a consequence of this code, that would mean that the trigger works, but one of the effects is propably broken. Check whether all commands are correct (I have no experience in new units and such, so I cannot help much with that)

I'm looking to modify feudal opinion modifiers based on certain flags. Is this even possible, and if so, what's the proper syntax for the if/then statements?

It is possible. I have not used opinions, but you can simply make an event for the flags which give opinion boosts. More useful would be a character_modifier, then you don't make an event, but simply add the opinion effect in the event_modifiers.txt file.

I am trying to re-draw somewhat de de jure map of Western Europe, and the game just crashed after I defined duchies belonging to no kingdom and kingdoms belonging to no empire. So, before I start searching a missing bracket or another stupid mistake, I thought I would ask if that is still allowed with the latest patches.

Before you try to search for mistakes; It is IMPOSSIBLE to have duchies without a kingdom in the game. It is unfortunate, but you have to make a kingdom where it is de jure part of. You can simply make the kingdom not creatable. Most shattered world mods (such as mine) make a world-wide kingdom to circumvent this problem.
Having no de jure empire is no problem though.

I'm trying to add some custom titular kingdoms/empires/duchies to the my game. I'm running a whole bunch of mods at the same time so i can't really fit in a proper additional titles mod, so im trying to modify one of the mods by manually adding some titular titles. I'm running: PB+SWMH+NBRT+ARKO+AO2+Cultural Cities+CPR+Family Relations+VIET Assets, Events,Traits.

I assume i need to add the titular titles to SWMH folder. I added k_spain to titular_titles.txt in SWMH common/landed_titles folder and it worked perfectly and shows up in game when you search for title. However, i've tried adding 2-3 other kingdoms but none of them shows up in game no matter what i do. Anyone knows what the problem is? Is something conflicting? I'm so confused and tired already.

Here's the k_spain that works (Borrowed it from Yet More Titles mod and added few modifications):

Spoiler

k_spain = {
	color={ 233 200 20 }
	color2={ 255 255 255 }
		
	capital = 197 # Toledo
	
	dignity = 30
		
	culture = castillan
	
	andalusian_arabic = "Isbaniyya"
	maghreb_arabic = "Isbaniyya"
	levantine_arabic = "Isbaniyya"
	egyptian_arabic = "Isbaniyya"
	sicilian_arabic = "Isbaniyya"
	basque = "Espainia"
	catalan = "Espanya"
	leonese = "Espańa"
	galician = "Espańa"
	portuguese = "Espanha"
	aragonese = "Espanya"
	frankish = "Espagne"

	allow = {
		religion_group = christian
		AND = { 
			has_landed_title = k_castille
			has_landed_title = k_leon
		}
		OR = {
			has_landed_title = k_aragon
			has_landed_title = k_portugal
		}
		e_spain = {
			has_holder = no
		}
	}
}

[/spoiler]

And here's k_occitania that doesn't work:

Spoiler

k_occitania = {
	color={ 244 227 160 }
	color2={ 255 255 20 }

	capital = 214 #Toulouse
	
	dignity = 10

	culture = occitan
	
	allow ={
		culture = occitan
		religion_group = christian
		has_landed_title = d_toulouse
	}
}
[/spoiler]

Both of them have a flag file and appropriate localisations.

Since you use so many mods, it would be easiest to make your own minimod on top of them. That way you can be sure that the new titles will be loaded last and are not replaced by other mods which are loaded afterwards. Next I would suggest to remove all allows and such (so the bare minimum) so you can determine whether it's a faulty command or something else.
Event better would be to copy spain and then remove/add conditions one by one. So you can see when it is removed from view in-game.

Are both titles in the same document?

I'm trying to create a trait that can't be randomly generated to characters, and must be passed down from a current ruler. Is there a way to do this?

I think you simply have to state 'random = no' in the modifier properties. I am not sure, but read it somewhere here.

I am trying to figure out how to create an event to bring a character back to life who is dead. Any suggestions?

What kind of characters would be the target? You can perhaps create a work-around if it are very specific characters to target and the (potential) target is known beforehand.

How do I make Orthodox able to crusade? I know there is a can_call_crusade in the religion thing that I can switch to yes but I'm wondering if that alone would work.

So?

Thank you, do you think telling me how make a title un-creatable would also qualify as a quick answer?

 

[Nivve]

Thank you, do you think telling me how make a title un-creatable would also qualify as a quick answer?

Well yes that qualifies

Simply state:
allow = {
always = no
}

You can even add other allows ('ai = no' ), so you're sure it doesn't pop-up by the AI somewhere. Even if the title is creatable, it would only be creatable by a player.

It's still spitting out errors. It still gives me or anyone else no indication of WHERE. I THINK I closed the area mentioned, but I can't know for sure in any case. Because of course, if it's an unnecessary bracket or in the wrong place, the error would still be there, adding to the confusion. Everything seems to close up OK in that C# mode I was asked to look at, so I'm still stumped. Of course, even if I saw a problem, would I know where to put/take away a bracket, given position seems to matter?

Acknowledging is not the same as using a suggestion, it is stating here that you used it (or not) and what the results were. If the suggestions were unhelpful, then tell us!
I noted that the bracket of line 15 was only closed around line 636, did you also find this? Did you closed it but the validator still finds errors? If the last thing is true, then it is probably useful to insert the next file instead of only saying 'Well, game's busted'. Did the game get bust due to one of our suggestions, we simply don't know!
There is no mention of you stating that you actually used the help and you stating what it did. Aside from my own suggestion, did Postm00v's suggestion help? I cannot find it in your posts.

It's still spitting out errors. It still gives me or anyone else no indication of WHERE. I THINK I closed the area mentioned, but I can't know for sure in any case. Because of course, if it's an unnecessary bracket or in the wrong place, the error would still be there, adding to the confusion. Everything seems to close up OK in that C# mode I was asked to look at, so I'm still stumped. Of course, even if I saw a problem, would I know where to put/take away a bracket, given position seems to matter?

If you use the c# language properly, you can easily see that there is a bracket extra which closes the first event prematurely. If you click on the first bracket the corresponding bracket turns red (if there is one), using c# I can see in one second that the bracket is in line 106, in the middle of the event.
When you remove it you can see that the now corresponding bracket is somewhere in another event. This is due to a missing bracket after the option in the first event (so the first event is never closed).
I even attached screenshots so you can see how you can easily spot the errors.

Before changes:

After deleting the extra bracket past the mean time command


In short:
- Delete one of the three brackets after the first 'mean_time_to_happen'
- Add a bracket after the option of the first event


See what people can do if you inform them properly

Is it possible to somehow switch order of names so that the Family/Dynasty name comes first and the personal name last? For example Basileus Makedon Basileos I of the Byzantine Empire

 

[Assalander]

I've been trying to set the "dynasty_title_names" to "no" for Persian in the culture00.txt file in the common/culture folder (currently playing a zoroastrian game and don't like my kingdom to be named "Karen", and it's also confusing to have the Satrapies named after the ruling dynasties rather than the location), but that had no effect. What did I miss?

Since you use so many mods, it would be easiest to make your own minimod on top of them. That way you can be sure that the new titles will be loaded last and are not replaced by other mods which are loaded afterwards. Next I would suggest to remove all allows and such (so the bare minimum) so you can determine whether it's a faulty command or something else.
Event better would be to copy spain and then remove/add conditions one by one. So you can see when it is removed from view in-game.

Are both titles in the same document?

I made a separate mod just for the new kingdoms as you suggested (and added other mods that deal with titles as dependancies) and it seems to have fixed the problem. Hopefully i didn't cause a whole cascade of ne w problems by doing so.:rofl:

Thanks for the help!

So basically, I've run into a problem with Horde invasion events. I'm creating a small mod wherein an ASB has Vercingetorix's army teleport from 52 BC to whenever the event fires, specifically into the province of Dijon.

I honestly don't know what the problem could be, but the horde doesn't declare war against the holder of the territory it spawns in. The bit in red is what the relevant part.

I've defined Gaulish culture as a horde and also set the character flag, but no dice. It's a bit weird considering I copied it from the Seljuk event.

In addition to this, I have three further questions:

-How do I avoid messing up the flags when I add custom titles? I know I can use a separate file, but I'm trying to mod in a new religion's holy sites and as far as I'm aware of, I need the entire vanilla list for that. I know you can, but I'm at a loss as to how to go about placing the titles in the file

-How do I implement custom event pictures? I've got .dds files and put them in the mod's gfx/event_pictures folder, referenced them in-file as gfx_filename, but nada

-How do I implement the reform decision for a new pagan religion? I've dumped what I had before to start with a clean slate, but I couldn't get the button to show up in the religion window.

EDIT: First issue solved (not attacking), no problem.

 

[Bloodly]

*Sigh*.

Validator is not complaining about brackets or parsing in 'Adventures'. So I'm glad of THAT.

However, I find I am still getting a blank pop-up with no way to dismiss whilst in game. The base problem continues. And now I have even less to go on.

 

[King_kovu]

How would one go about coding a decision that starts a war? I would assume you'd have the decision fire an event like the ones when a faction presents it's demands?

What I'm trying to do is create a 'Challenge the Imperial Title' decision. In my mod I have made it so that the first of Germania(e_hre), Italia(e_italy) and Francia(e_france) to form gets given the Western Roman Empire (e_wre) which is a titular title i've created that basically acts as the HRE as there's an event to rename it the HRE. What I want to do is make it so that if one of the other two empires forms after the WRE title is given out they can decide to Challenge the holder of the WRE for the imperial title.

also, To do this would I need to create a new Casus Belli?

Edit: I don't need to be told the exact coding that would need doing just what I would need to create and where I can look in the files for similar things to steal. I would simply copy the title claimant decision thing but that's faction based and as the Emperor of France cannot make a faction in the Empire of Italy it wouldn't go far....plus a literal claim would be needed.

 

[ShadowGamer42]

How do I make it so an event only fires for a character of a certain tier?

 

[Sleight of Hand]

How do I make it so an event only fires for a character of a certain tier?

'tier = baron' and suchlike ought to work as triggers, I believe.
