Enable extra debug logs (settings.cfg) and check savedebug.txt after you start a game to see which leader files are loaded and if the Italian one is there too.

Tks, MartinBG. I enable it and found it out. It was a wrong ID sequence in the commie shadow country that was bugging the custom one.

type = rarematerialspool value = [value to add] where = [prov id]

If no where field is used, it goes to the national pool.

Is this what I would add in the industrial_tech.txt file? Or would I go with something like "oil_to_rare_materials"?

Thanks in advance!

Got a question that doesn't quite fit into Events or AI fixes? Need help figuring out how to resolve a sticky problem? Then this is the place!

This is the thread where you go 'Why isn't my flag showing correctly?' - 'How do I make it so I can liberate puppets' - 'The new revolter I made causes the game to crash' and so on. So post your queries here and perhaps you'll get some answers.

How would I go about changing the name/flag of a country via an event?
I've got this idea for a neo-DDR event in mind.

The best is you handle it via event.

Define some trigger, like...
ideology = leninist
Then use the following commands:
command = { type = flag_ext where = TAG which = "_commie"}
command = { type = name where = TAG which = "The Great Democratic Populist Worker's Communist Republic of Upper Tagishtan" }

Check Darkest Hour\Modding Documentation\event_commands.txt:

type = flag_ext where = TAG/-1 [which = "string"] # where – change flag of TAG or current country if where = -1; which - add that string to flag/shield/counter name and skin folder; use empty string ("") or no skip to clear.

type = name where = TAG/-1 [which = "string"] # where – change name of TAG or of current country if where = -1; which - new country name; use empty string ("") or no which to reset name to default. "name" now can be a string in any of the CSV text files.

Check the first event of Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\db\events\1914\SOV - Bolsheviks.txt (in 1.03RC2) for an example.

What is the maximum range that can be assigned to a ship?

 

[Miihkali]

How does fort_attack and fort_defense modifiers (db/units/modifiers.csv) work? Is it per fortress in a province or is it equal for any province with a fortress, no matter if its level is 1 or 10?

Is it possible to make a bunch of Tech Teams usable to anyone? or do I need to make a new tech team for every nation? I want to create a bunch of tech teams that,with cash, can hired/founded by any nation who is lacking a tech team in some area. Like a aircraft team for CHC.

 

[Lyrecryer]

In other words, do you really need a Tag for tech teams?

Yes.

Tech teams have unique ID and can exist in one country at a time.

 

[NorwayBernd]

I believe (though i am not quite sure) the waketeam command can be used for any nation, so you'd simply need to make an event or decision that enables it.

 

[Lyrecryer]

Ok then. I can make a file with 5 tech team per country and add some fancy events to go with them.

You cannot put TTs for different countries in the same file as the country is defined at the header of tech team files.

 

[Lyrecryer]

well that means my idea isn't possible then. Ok then, can you increase a tech team skill level?

 

[MartinBG]

Currently by commands teams can only be slept or waken.

 

[Miihkali]

Is it possible to make a technology lower dissent growth? Something like daily giving degative free dissent. (Comparable to commands like free_money = -1.)

Is there any way to activate a division AND reduce its strength through an event? I tried "type = damage_division which = [div id type/-1] value = [div id id] where = X", but I don't know what I'm supposed to replace [div id id] with.

How can I re-add AT brigades? I modded the armor tech file and added a antitank file to brigades folder, but this second step makes the game CTD upon loading... is there any step I'm missing?
