question about making the mode harder economically

[NakedBeast]

So, got a question. I'd like to lower everyone's income in the game, is there a way to mod that, some base income modifier maybe?
HIP is perfect for me in every aspect except that, I prefer ck+ slower income-demensne building cos starting as pagan count and having more income then byzantine empire in 50 years does not feel right.

Also, while we are on that, would that ruin AI behaviour? I mean, is AI behaviour manually modified accordingly to that base income modifier? Or can AI just play along with any income.

I am asking modders or anyone who know if there is a modifier somewhere in files and where it is so I can change it for myself, not for it to be changed in mod.

The static modifiers file has all the base incomes for holding types, you will also probably want to alter the the tax income from buildings as well.

Okay, that sounds little tiresome but doable.
Any idea if it will fuck up AI badly?

Shouldn't do, but it isn't exactly great at building up even in the vanilla game so expect it to lag behind more than usual as its starting with less.

Now I think of it, I could try tinkering with it's behaviour. Have an idea where to find a file for that?

There is ai_creation_factor in the buildings file, there might be a few setting in the defines file as well but apart from those that part of the ai is hard coded.

Thanks! I'll put more weight in castle town building then, its a source of direct income to any feudal ruler.
