Modding - Quick questions

[JustSmall]

Make a file "0_JustSmall.csv" and put your stuff in there (and your stuff only!). You see the one that is loaded up first is used. If you edit the vanilla file you'd have to keep the full file in your mod which is not necessary.

Thanks a lot for the help! I hope I corrected my mistakes.

However, I've run into a further problem which seems to be unrelated to my previous issues:

Whenever I boot up the game (which works fine!), the political map ends up looking like this:
View attachment 121006
Googling and browsing through the various forums has yet to yield any useful information in regards to my problem.

Furthermore I get these logs, maybe they are of any help: error.log and graphics.log

Thanks in advance for any help, it's greatly appreciated!

How do I change it so it doesn't come up with bishophoric of...? As I have certain theocracies that I don't want to be called a bishophoric

Hi. I want to create a modifier that can be seen under characters stats like voice of satan and activating/deactivating it would not cause a pop-up. Trigger for it would be characters prestige level, when character has x level of prestige it would be activated and when prestige goes to level y, x would be deactivated and y would be activated. On level z y would go off and z on and so on.

Is it possible to make code like this and can you help me?

Okay altered the decisions and events and the buttons still aren't showing up. I'm wondering if expulsion is hardcoded for Jews only.

Can you post your decision file?

I can't see your picture, can you try uploading it on Steam or a third-party image hosting site?

Use triggered modifiers. Vanilla doesn't really use them but many mods do, look in some of them for an example.

Sure, I can repost it.

Which decision are you having problems with?

 

[ThePatriot1776]

Which decision are you having problems with?

Both since neither is showing up in the Intrigue tab in the decisions section. When the events are fired manually there is blank text in both text box for the description of the event and in the reply button. As an aside, when fired manually none of the Muslims are expelled and the icon doesn't show up for expelling Muslims.

I do have an additional problem with the traits for the messiah, descendant of the messiah, and Levite as they are being randomly assigned to characters of a new game and the code for each trait specifically says random = no.

Your welcome_muslims decision requires you to be simultaneously Muslim and not Muslim, which is obviously impossible. What did you want to do with the first NOT = { block?

Your expel_muslims decision requires you to be Jewish, which is probably why you aren't seeing it. The "is_playable = yes" line seems unnecessary as well.

Sorry, that was the older version of the decisions. Here is the current one.

It's showing up properly for me. Are you sure you meet all the requirements in the potential = { block when you're checking it?

Yup, I meet the requirements. Strange indeed.

Any help with the traits randomly showing up when they shouldn't?

 

[DC123456789]

It's usually easier to deal with one problem first and then move on to the next one, especially when it's probably just a simple code problem like this.

What file did you put them your decisions in? Did you create a new file in decisions or did you copy an existing one?

I created a new one titled ExIs_decisions.txt.

Ah, sorry about that.
This should work however.

 

[DC123456789]

I created a new one titled ExIs_decisions.txt.

Try removing all the other files and see if the decisions show up. You're sure the file is in the decisions folder of your mod? Try moving everything in the potential block to the allow block and see if it shows up then.

Ah, sorry about that.

What files have you overwritten for your mod?

I got it to show up finally. Thank ya. It doesn't show up for Jewish characters for me. For Christians and everyone else it shows up.

What files have you overwritten for your mod?

history/technology/india.txt (I'm still not quite sure where to put my part of that), common/bookmarks.txt (only added my character to the TOG startdate for easier access) and from the map folder default.map, definition.csv, positions.txt and provinces.bmp.

I made an event which is meant to add a +500 retinue cap province modifier to all realm provinces, but it's only being applied to my demense provinces.

The modifier shows up on my vassals provinces, but it doesn't add the +500 to the retinue cap. If I start in 769 I get +1,500 instead of the calculated +36,500.

namespace = IMP

character_event = {
	id = IMP.1

        hide_window = yes

	trigger = {
		is_feudal = yes
		higher_tier_than = duke
                has_law = imperial_administration
                NOT = { has_province_modifier = imperial_rule }
	}

	mean_time_to_happen = {
		days = 1
	}

	option = {
		name = OK
		any_realm_province = { 
			limit = {
                                NOT = { has_province_modifier = imperial_rule }
                }
		         add_province_modifier = { name = imperial_rule duration = -1 }
                         }
		capital_scope = {
			}
			limit = {
				NOT = { has_province_modifier = imperial_rule }
			}
			add_province_modifier = { name = imperial_rule duration = -1 }
		}
	}
}

That's the event itself (It originally came from the Imperial Revamp mod). I think the issue is that the modifier is giving my vassals +500 towards their retinue cap instead of mine.

Is there anything in the potential = { block? If there isn't then it should show up for everybody. It's better if you move everything to allow so you can see which condition is making it unavailable for Jews.

history/technology/india.txt (I'm still not quite sure where to put my part of that), common/bookmarks.txt (only added my character to the TOG startdate for easier access) and from the map folder default.map, definition.csv, positions.txt and provinces.bmp.

It's most likely definition.csv. What changes did you make to it?

}

Can you post the modifier itself?
