Modding - Quick questions

Whats the best way of having an event fire every year around the same time ????

There is a 'pulse' event somewhere. I even think it was a few pages back in this thread. I am not sure myself how it works, but if I remember correctly the guy asking a question about that even posted the code he used for it.

I'm trying to build a mod, it does not contain any event, but, now, when i try to play with it no event works! Neither marriages, betothrals, childrens' birth nor the other events! This is the content of my x.mod

replace_path = "history"
replace_path = "history\titles"
replace_path = "history\provinces"
replace_path = "history\wars"
replace_path = "history\diplomacy"
replace_path = "history\characters"
replace_path = "common\religions"
replace_path = "common\landed_titles"
replace_path = "common\cultures"
replace_path = "common\religions"
replace_path = "common\dynasties"
replace_path = "common\traits"
replace_path = "decisions"

What could be the cause of this bug?

Well, replace_path will remove everything that is normally in that folder with your mods files. So even files you do not alter will be ignored. You should only use 'replace_path' if you want to delete all other files other mods/vanilla uses in there. Simply remove all these lines to make the mod work.

How do i add new nicknames to the game?

I only want them to be recievable via console command (i.e. no script/event/whatever needs to be done), so I assume it should be an easy thing to do.

In your own mini mod make a new file in common/nicknames and put yours in (nick_the_awesome={}).
Then add a localisation for that in the loc. folder.
Just take a look how it is done in vanilla and do something similar

Yes, but i need to add those lines because there is a new map, new titles, religions, cultures etc in this mod, so I have to replace the vanilla files. I have this bug with events even if I didn't touchany event nor changed vanilla event folder...

 

[Dhop84]

How do you trigger an event on a specific day and month ? And the on_actions yearly pulse what does the 40 mean in this ?
#character
on_yearly_pulse = {
random_events = {
#Lifestyles
40 = 200000
40 = 200001

Can't you re-add the vanilla events and such in your own mod? It will replace everything and then keep the vanilla files (by re-adding them)

How do you trigger an event on a specific day and month ?

If you mean literally on a date instead of the pulse you mentioned above, that is mightilly simple.
trigger={
year = 900
month = 2
}
for february 900

Awesome so really i can use that to trigger the event every year at that time instead of a yearly pulse event ?

 

[Dhop84]

Also on a completely different subject is there a way of having it so the orthodox faith for example doesnt see the nestorian faith as a heresy and can you keep a religion to stay only in one court ?

Don't think so, hence I added the literally interpretation part in my answer.

Check the common/on_action files. You can see the pulse events there (first number is the priority, mtth, something like that. after the '=' sign is probably the event id).

Using obscenely large font sizes is unnecessary and looks obscene, please use standard sizing when asking questions.

Is there a mod, or perhaps a guide for disabling the console window? I find myself cheating when things go wrong, and i'd love to be able to remove the temptation!

Not yet. Ironman mode will do that, tho, once it's integrated.

 

[Rozmarzony]

There was a mod, who could provide entire statistics of your dynasty... what's name? Thanks!

Aye, but you can't play CKII+ with Ironman on.

Perhaps tear the ~ key out of your keyboard?
