for the leaders i think you could just assign a new id to them. i dont know who are they conflicting with.
Then for the 1at option you should have revolts in those provinces where the treasure fleet was housed if you chose the 1st option (i can't think offhand which provinces those would be represented in-game as i can remember only some of the port names).Sun_Zi_36 said:I am not sure if that is historically warranted. the 1436 event arose because of 3 main factors: the death of the Emperor Xuan Zong, the rise of the confucian counsels to the new young Emperor Ying Zong, the return of the treasure fleet and subsequent death of Zheng He. in the context of these changing circumstances, a new debate arose of what to do with the treasure fleet after Zheng He's death. out of this 3 plausible choices can be construed: abandon the treasure fleet, continue it at a cheap level, or expand it. these are the 3 choices in the event. To construe into the historical context a plausible choice of abandoning the treasure fleet plus restrict the navy even further i think is going too far because the decision was mainly just about the treasure fleet.
Ok, but i wonder for the 1st year atleast i'd think the 10% RR wouldn't be that unwaranted for either extrene case since you'd be devoting massive resources either way. Actually i'd make it higher for the shift to land, but i think that would make people even less likely to chose that path.Sun_Zi_36 said:well, in that case i think the RR should be reduced bcoz it would mean too much penalty to the province income. But i think the original penalty of revolts is just substituted by income reduction, so it's not necessary to add stability changes.
Jinnai said:Actually its a bit off topic, but i would like to use 1200 RR for some events. As mentioned, anything about 25-30 will just affect revolt chance anyway, so if the effect is to reduce monthly income by 100% and have many revolts as well, what does it matter then what the RR is?
TBox said:Was that intended as a refutation, or are you asking that I come up with something else?
Jinnai said:A guaranteed 1 battle per month would barely scratch the number off all-out battles in the city during that time. These weren't just skirmishes or raids.
TBox said:Well, okay, that raises a question. Do EU battles really correlate to RL battles? I know that quashing rebel scum can be done in a few days of game time, but I've seen big battles, on both land and sea, take months of game time to resolve. I've looked over the combat faq, but still am not quite sure what makes some battles take so long to finish.
i think the funkiness might be caused by me using an asian operating system when editing the file. if u could change them for me that would be great. the only changes are:Garbon said:Okay, I'm about to release the latest compile. However, it will not include your province.csv changes as you have something funky going on in them. I think I know where the crash upon loading errors are coming from in them...you've defined a city but then still have the N/A bit. However, I don't know exactly how many columns need to be removed, and since you changed them, it'd be great if you could get them working for the latest beta.
first of all, welcome to AGCEEP. I'm glad to hear that this thread most attracted your attention in the forum.TBox said:Because the game clearly has a different idea about what a certain range of RR is supposed to represent.
This was the first thread I visited when trying to see what the fuss over AGCEEP mod was all about, and I have to confess, the idea that anything could have 800 RR turns me off to the whole idea. It sounds like you're fighting the games' mechanisms rather than working with them.
The main problem appears to me to be the same problem as with the native nations in America: The Chinese conception of nationalism and the state is so very different from the European conception.
What you're describing to me doesn't sound like rampant rebellions in provinces that would fit the European definition of "owned."
I'm not sure what exactly is going on, even after reading the thumbnail history, but what it sounds like, from a European POV...
Vietnam is an independent nation which China has Core Shields on... of course *China* will tell you, and history records, that Vietnam is/was a rebellious part of the Empire, but the Vietnamese at the time felt differently. Vietnam resisted total overthrow by China through some convenient "Enthusiasm for the Army" events. If the GC starts in the middle of this war, let China Control - but not Own - some vietnamese provinces, but start with Vietnamese armies already Sieging to reclaim those provinces. If it is an extended "rebellion," one that China is not intended to crush instantly, I'd hint to the AI however possible that accepting Vassalage rather than provinces is the proper way to end the war... then have an event a few years later which allows Vietnam to break vassalage and start up the war again. If Chinese armies were a constant presence down there, feel free to wave that away as where the other half of the province money (that China didn't get through its vassalage) is *really* going for: A game-invisible army of oppressors, AKA: The Vietnamese Government.
Another option would be to take a lesson from the OE's failures in the latest vanilla patches, salt the "core" chinese provinces with three different religions, then make all the client states a fourth religion. It may have an intense desire to conquer the states, but religious tolerance problems will make those states continually revolt away and declare independence. Of course, that'd prolly require recoding religions a little too much, or throwing historical accuracy out the window wrt provincial religion. And it just ensures that China will have revolt problems, not that the revolts will be at all historical.

Are we sure these changes apply to both the AI and humans? I understood them to only apply to human players. If this is the case, then everything above 110% or so has virtually no effect on the AI.Jinnai said:
- RR affects province income in that every 1% of RR means -5% to that province's income.
- Province RR is cacluated based on year rather than month. So 100% = guaranteed 1 revolt/year rather than 1/revolt month. 1200% theoritcally should give 1/month.
yes AI can do it. army in every level can discover TI provs that owned by other. often see that when in war condition.AI discover and get blocked couse have no MA and must turn around to find another routeYodaMaster said:Only problem is I don't know if AI is able to discover foreign provinces with armies only (no conquistador). If it is the case, this setup is interesting but if not, Mongolia should know Nerchiinsk too but will have a full known corridor to China from start in 1419. Affordable?
