I asked this question in the quick questions thread in the main modding forum but my query was left unresolved, so I've brought it here. I realize this is a very specific question, and my apologies for that, but it seems like nobody anywhere else can help.
I'm attempting to modify the HIP (all modules sans ARKO interface and VIET, with mini-SWMH) Crusade CB to permit any Christian religion (including heresies) which can call Crusades to be able to target Messalians, and for Messalians to be able to target any other Christian religion with a Crusade. I know next-to-nothing about modding, however, and have been unable to make it work.
What I've tried so far was written for me by someone else, but although it works (at least partially) for the holy war CB, it doesn't appear to do so for the Crusades. The new code is everything below the "is_parent_religion = ROOT" below:
...which I have added both under the "can_use" and "is_valid" sections of the CB, to no avail; after testing by triggering the Crusades and character-switching to a feudalized Papacy to determine whether I could use the CB against a Messalian enemy controlling the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the CB was not available to me.
A user in the general questions thread suggested that there's likely some sort of conflict in the CB which is preventing it from functioning as I'd like, and I find that likely myself, but as I said before I'm very amateur at modding, and if such a conflict does exist I certainly can't find it. It goes without saying that I'd very much appreciate any and all help that anybody could offer me.
Attached are my cb_types file and the EMF CB triggers, which a user in the general questions thread intimated might be useful for solving this issue. Once again, I'd appreciate any help at all.
