-----------------------
THIS IS A DARK age, a bloody age, an age of daemons
and of sorcery. It is an age of battle and death.
and of the world’s ending. Amidst all of the fire,
flame and fury it is a time, too, of mighty heroes,
of bold deeds and great courage.
~
AT THE HEART of the Old World sprawls the Empire,
the largest and most powerful of the human realms.
Known for its engineers, sorcerers, traders and
soldiers, it is a land of great mountains, mighty
rivers, dark forests and vast cities. It is a land
riven by uncertainty, as three pretenders all vye
for control of the Imperial throne.
~
BUT THESE ARE far from civilized times.
Across the length and breadth of the Old World,
from the knightly palaces of Bretonnia to ice-bound
Kislev in the far north, come rumblings of war.
In the towering Worlds Edge Mountains, the orc
tribes are gathering for another assault.
Bandits and renegades harry the wild southern lands
of the Border Princes. There are rumours of
rat-things, the Skaven, emerging from the sewers
and swamps across the land. And from the northern
wildernesses there is the ever-present threat of
Chaos, of Daemons and Beastmen corrupted by
the foul powers of the Dark Gods.
As the time of battle draws ever near,
the Empire needs heroes like never before.

- Ai will now use all boons, and request them in a more intelligent way e.g. will only summon one daemon familiar of each type, won’t claim more than 1 steed etc.
- Made it so when the ai event to make them join a Warband fires it will prioritize rulers joining, basic daemons, bloodletters, plague lords are now forbidden from joining. As well as rulers e.g. mercs who don’t hold actual land

- You can no longer learn lores through boons multiple times or become a berserker if you a mage and vice versa
- Chaos Undivided can use the steeds from the offmaps

e.g they won’t recruit champions if they are not one themselves, they won’t always summon an army unless they are at war to allow them to save up for higher tier boons etc.
- Fixed issue with Fimir born from human mothers not getting Fimir portraits
- Slavery menu now works for selling slaves
- Magic revolts will no longer pick an imprisoned person to be the leader

- Fix to edge case of spell units not spawning in correct province, and fix to prevent commanders getting kicked when casting starts. Had to turn off auto army merging due to hardcoded bug with commanders being kicked when merging
- Placed a Beastman ruler in Morgheim surrounded by orcs on all sides but determined to hold the ruin
- Merged the "old world only - Elf Enclaves" submod with "old world only", since the doom engine fires on malekith on game start.

This event has a higher chance to trigger if bordering a realm ruled by a demon prince or chosen.

- Disinherited Neferatas and Ushorans brother and his children so if they die we dont end up with a random tomb king in the badlands/mountains

- Merged Malekith death and overthrown empire destruction event. Now when Malekith loses his empire or dies e_naggaroth is destroyed

The ai can attempt to recruit even when the society has reached the max membership limit, if they succeed in the event chain the recruited target will not join the full society
and instead simply change secret religion and be flagged a sleeper agent
Every 5 years the sleeper agents will check if the society has dipped in membership below the limit and join automatically if it has, when a general cultist uprising happens
any sleeper agents will convert, leave any non chaos societies and join in alongside the normal society members
People the player recruit will always join the society bypassing the limit same as before.
rank 3 members of the cult can now also declare an uprising, as the cults are global and members in realms other than the single rank 4 member were essentially useless
the ai will not currently declare an uprising if the player is in the same realm as a rank 3 or 4 member

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
------------------------------------------------------
```
Q: Are you going to add anything from the Age of Sigmar/The End Times?
A: Short answer: No. I have plenty of work overhauling the current bookmark for now.
```
```
Q: Why can't I play a Half-Elf/Half-Dwarf/Half-Orc/other hybrid character?
A: Because they don't exist in Warhammer. Humans, Elves, Dwarfs, Orcs, Lizardmen etc. are not biologically compatible. If you take an Elf/Dwarf/etc. as a lover or concubine, any pregnancies will only result in stillbirths, and that's only because the game engine won't let us completely prevent interbreeding.
```
```
Q: I'm having trouble with the Ruler Designer!
A: The Ruler Designer is not explicitly supported for Warhammer: Geheimnisnacht. We've done some work to fix its worst problems but it is still unbalanced and incomplete. Use at your own risk.
```
```
Q: I understand you don't support the Ruler Designer, but how do I get around the problems?
A: Use the admin console to add your race trait if it doesn't appear after a few months of in-game time. This can help you avert several issues like the marriage, divorce and miscarriage bug, the lack of long life as an elf or dwarf, the lack of immortality as a vampire or Tomb King, and so on. Most of the time when we get a report of an issue with the Ruler Designer, it's because of race trait issues. Don't add your race trait in the RD itself - due to a hardcoded issue, it causes some traits (like any with the Immortal tag) to not function properly.
```
```
Q: What DLCs do I need to play this mod?
A: You can play Warhammer: Geheimnisnacht with nothing but the most barebones basic version of Crusader Kings 2 with absolutely none of the DLC activated except for Charlemagne which is required for our 3-D models. However, all major DLCs are highly recommended, as they are either needed for race mechanics or to fully enhance the experience. Most importantly: Horse Lords - Many races, such as Blood Dragon Vampires and High Elfs use HL mechanics Legacy of Rome - Many powerful retinues that balance certain races are contained here The Republic - There are many different merchant republics scattered across the globe The Old Gods - Norse flavour and events for the Norscans and Kislevite pagans Jade Dragon - off-map Powers for Cathay and the Chaos Gods Holy Fury - Bloodlines, warrior lodges and More! No music, unit, or portrait packs are needed, as Geheimnisnacht uses its own music composed by Steve Gernes, custom 3-D models, and handmade portraits made by Silfae.
```
```
Q: How do I learn/use magic?
A: The Magic system is one of the big systems in need of a rebuild. In its current state, I'm not sure what works and what doesn't. Hopefully, I can finish it soon.
```
```
Q: Why can't Khornates or Blood Dragons learn magic?
A: Lore restriction, Khornates and Blood Dragons do not use or learn magic under any circumstances. This also means that it **won't** be implemented. Sorry, that's just how the lore works.
```
```
Q: Why is the Empire not unified?
A: Warhammer: Geheimnisnacht begins in IC 2010, over five centuries before the reign of Karl Franz and the familiar events of recent Warhammer canon such as Total War: Warhammer, the Storm of Chaos campaign, the End Times, etc. Three centuries before Magnus the Pious reunited the Empire in 2304 the Empire was in a state of civil war, as multiple Electors fought over the Imperial throne - and on the night of Geheimnisnacht in 2010, the day the mod begins, Vlad von Carstein of Sylvania revealed himself as a vampire and threw his hat into the ring by summoning a great undead host. This date was chosen because the divisions and events taking place at the time made for better gameplay than the more unified and - so to speak - more stable Warhammer world of the 2500s. Imagine trying to play a campaign when almost every faction is one giant blob!
```
```
Q: Are you going to expand the map to Cathay?
A: Short answer: No. Long answer: Very little information exists on Cathay, Ind, Nippon and the rest of the lands beyond the Mountains of Mourn in the Warhammer setting. We have nothing to work with, no idea how to properly put their factions together, what mechanics to give them, nothing. Not to mention that the game is already rather laggy with the current world map - expanding the map further and adding at least three new major kingdoms, not to mention all the other factions we'd have to put in, would likely make Geheimnisnacht unplayable on all but the strongest computers. We have, however, compromised and added some Cathayans to a colony in the Southlands. And with Jade Dragon introducing off-map powers we have begun work on representing Cathay in some way.
```
```
Q: Is there any End Times-style content? Like the world ending?
A: Something to that effect is planned, absolutely, but not yet fully implemented.
```
```
Q: I got killed by a Halfling in a minor skirmish!
A: Such is life in CK2, consider hiding in your keep if you're afraid of death.
```
```
Q: I want to help out! How can I join the Geheimnisnacht team?
A: It's as easy as making something we can implement into the mod! Put together an event, some code, a guide, etc. and contact @komioski, the current developer, or ping him in #general-discussion. If your content works, fits the setting and lore and doesn't possess our computers with daemons from the Chaos Realm, you will likely be recruited to the team! ...If it breaks everything, melts our PCs, overpowers the game or contains Warcraft references, you will likely not be recruited to the team. Please test your work before sending it to us, exorcising our offices and computers and replacing devoured team members can seriously delay work on updates.
```
```
Q: Is this mod dead? Why haven't I heard any news in a while?
A: Be Patient, I have a Development Plan/Roadmap, and I'm constantly active if you haven't heard anything it means I'm working hard on the next update! Trust me, you'll be informed if we ever stop development.
```
```
Q: Are there any plans to create a mod for CK3?
A: Yes we are currently working on it as your reading this.
```
```
Q: How do I become a Lab Rat/Clan Rat? What's the point?
A: Anyone who meets the requirements (over 100hrs of playtime, all DLCs, and lore knowledge) can join the lab rat program. We recruit in waves and the #admissions channel opens with little warning but if you manage to make it in it can be a lot of fun! Perks include exclusive sub-mods, access to Dev versions, multiplayer games with the Dev, and a chance to earn a seat on the Council of Thirteen. An exclusive group of contributors with some power over development.
```
```
Q: Does this mod accept donations or have a Patreon?
A: Yes it does you can find the Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/Komioski
```
```
Q: What is WH: Geheimnisnacht - Legacy?
A: With the recent worldwide pandemic this year, development was put on hiatus for a few months as I adjusted to working from home. This meant that my initial planned release window of summer for the main branch of the mod would have to be pushed back, making it more than 2 years since a public version has been made available to the community. Therefore I decided to set aside some time to rework a personal project of one of our Lab Rats @ManuSwaG, which compiled the old 1.2 version of Geheimnisnacht with my current development version into a "playable" (it didn't CTD at least) version of the mod compatible with CK2 v3.3.3. I spent a week recruiting a host of new Lab Rats and put them to work rooting out the most obvious/game-breaking bugs most of which I managed to fix. This slowly Built into The Clan and now this is has become the official name of the Main Branch as the release of CK3 may otherwise cause name confusion between versions.

Debug Info Editor by SirCobra (cobras_event_logger_v2.1.exe)
Version 2.1
Do you hate crashes? Do you want to help us (the WH: Geheimnisnacht team) solve the issues? In this case, you should try out this program!
Thanks to @SirCobra#7071 we have made our own version of the event logger, completely from scratch.
This program can modify the mod's decisions and events to add additional info to the game.log when they are firing (...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\logs\game.log).
It modifies events and decisions text files to add a 'log'-line in the immediate/effect clause.
Make sure you have enabled -debugscripts in your steam launch options!
Instructions:
1. Back away if you don't know what game.log is or haven't understood the description of the program
2. Read the Warnings!
3. Back up your decisions and events
4. Put the cobras_event_logger_v2.1.exe in the same folder, where the folders "events" and "decisions" are located.
4.1 It should be noted we are talking about the location of the mod's events/decisions, not the base game! They should be located at: ...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\mod\*your mod*
5. Run the program.
6. Press y if you want to edit the debug information.
7. Press 1 to Add Debug Info to events or press 4 to add it to decisions.
8. Make sure you have enabled -debugscripts in your steam launch options!
9. Run the game and play until a nice crash happens, look at game.log to find the bogus event.
10. When you've done testing, please report your findings.
Usually, the last lines in the game.log and error.log have caused the crash.
Upload either both files or the last lines in both files.
11. After you are done you can remove the debug info with option 7. (READ the section Warnings!)
It will remove all logs generated by this program.
12. Exit the program with option 0.s
Warnings:
1. game.log may become huge
2. The log changes some code in immediate and effect clauses, which can (but should not) cause crashes.
Additional info for modders:
1. Option 9 will only remove the lines generated by this program, but no manually generated logs.
2. If you've applied mode 1 and 4 (added commentary to both decisions and events), then the program will stay in a stable checksum rotation. This means it will always switch between the checksum of the active log and the disabled log.
It can't go back to the pre-edited checksum though, because some formatting is applied, when the program is executed for the first time.
Note:
If you have any problems with the program or you found a bug caused by the program, feel free contact me.
Discord: SirCobra#7071
I am active in the WH: Geheimnisnacht Community Discord.
Feel free to join:
discord.gg
Cheers,
SirCobra
The legacy version has been built by Komioski and his team. It has been renamed to Legacy in order to avoid confusion with the CK3 version.

- Fixed issue with characters passing mage training despite having no magic potential
- Fixed issue where training could continue forever after becoming a mage, leading to near 100+ learning

This will have the same effect as winning the civil war with a slightly different description

- Doom counter can no longer go negative or over 1000 and should start properly.
(Now triggers off Malekith on game start and then is set as a repeating event on province 1 every year)
- Doom can now passively increase per the amount of Champions, Chosen and Princes active in the world as well as if the Everchosen is active
This is a random chance and is lower if they only hold land in the chaos wastes and massively lower if they are not landed
Higher traits have a higher base chance of adding doom.
However the doom loss on death has been extended to champions as well, though at a much lower level
- Higher Doom makes mages much more likely to appear randomly (even higher for chaos mages) and also allows easier summoning of Demons
- Magic System

- Higher Magic potential traits make it easier for you to level up your magic power level
- Added a bunch of tooltips to magic triggers
- Liche priests and tomb kings get a 1 and 2 magic pool boost respectively, otherwise they might not be able to cast with a low magic power. Liche priests are incapable of levelling up magic xp anyway so not that overpowered

-Other chaos religions (except chaos dwarfs) and Norscans with a dark patron can join in after the war starts for a chance at artefacts and favour if chaos wins
-However they will not receive any land or war chest rewards due to hardcoded limitations in the crusade system.

- Slavery menu now works for selling slaves
- Magic revolts will no longer pick an imprisoned person to be the leader

- The Fay Enchantress is now human, but retains her beauty forever, as it should be
- Fixed history files. Birth, marriage, and age stuff. Missing = in trait assignments. removed old unused traits. Fixed mount for the red duke not spawning. Nickname fixes
- Khalida artifact and new face mask(Needs to be applied to khalida)
- Added Generic Druchii artifacts
- Fix to Drakenhof starting with a city as the capital and fixed the drakenhof unique buildings
- Tribals can hold castles if the county culture is the same, some tribals e.g. amazons cant become feudal, so if their land was taken and upgraded to a castle it becomes useless to them if retaken
- Disinherited Neferatas and Ushorans brother and his children so if they die we dont end up with a random tomb king in the badlands/mountains
- Fixed crash with pick_main_deity, by coincidence a large number of ai took the decision at once, but because the modifier that stopped them taking the decision again was done after the events chain they seemed to pick it hundreds of time in a row
- Merged Malekith death and overthrown empire destruction event. Now when Malekith loses his empire or dies e_naggaroth is destroyed
- If Malekith held e_ulthuan as well and the the heir to e_naggaroth gets both empires and is not in the asur_group then e_ulthuan is destroyed as well
- Malekith will also permanently lose access to his unique government if he is overthrown to show his authority has been broken beyond repair (Not sure on this change specifically may adjust)
- Added decision for reclaiming e_naggaroth if you have the whole capital kingdom and either a large enough realm size or completely control 2 other kingdoms in Naggaroth
- Chaos Dwarfs also get some extra age for adult characters spawned by events. So they can potentially be made commanders
- Removed the trait addict from Valka. Addict gives you events where you lose base stats currently
- First wonder in the Chaos wastes, the Inevitable City, notably give big population max and pop growth to chaos nomads along with other minor boosts, no custom upgrades right now
- Added chaos cult sleeper agents:
The ai can attempt to recruit even when the society has reached the max membership limit, if they succeed in the event chain the recruited target will not join the full society
and instead simply change secret religion and be flagged a sleeper agent
Every 5 years the sleeper agents will check if the society has dipped in membership below the limit and join automatically if it has, when a general cultist uprising happens
any sleeper agents will convert, leave any non chaos societies and join in alongside the normal society members
People the player recruit will always join the society bypassing the limit same as before.
rank 3 members of the cult can now also declare an uprising, as the cults are global and members in realms other than the single rank 4 member were essentially useless
the ai will not currently declare an uprising if the player is in the same realm as a rank 3 or 4 member
- Added lots of flavor to the greenskin-specific events
- First pass at Clean Up\Rebalance of Chaos traits
- Added our first minor race: The Fimir
This is just the framework, they will be polished and expanded on in future patches
- Fixed "Become Mason" decision

- Renamed both "vales of florida" to the "floridian vales" which fixed the cut off

------------------------------------------------------
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
------------------------------------------------------
```
Q: Are you going to add anything from the Age of Sigmar/The End Times?
A: Short answer: No. I have plenty of work overhauling the current bookmark for now.
```
```
Q: Why can't I play a Half-Elf/Half-Dwarf/Half-Orc/other hybrid character?
A: Because they don't exist in Warhammer. Humans, Elves, Dwarfs, Orcs, Lizardmen etc. are not biologically compatible. If you take an Elf/Dwarf/etc. as a lover or concubine, any pregnancies will only result in stillbirths, and that's only because the game engine won't let us completely prevent interbreeding.
```
```
Q: I'm having trouble with the Ruler Designer!
A: The Ruler Designer is not explicitly supported for Warhammer: Geheimnisnacht. We've done some work to fix its worst problems but it is still unbalanced and incomplete. Use at your own risk.
```
```
Q: I understand you don't support the Ruler Designer, but how do I get around the problems?
A: Use the admin console to add your race trait if it doesn't appear after a few months of in-game time. This can help you avert several issues like the marriage, divorce and miscarriage bug, the lack of long life as an elf or dwarf, the lack of immortality as a vampire or Tomb King, and so on. Most of the time when we get a report of an issue with the Ruler Designer, it's because of race trait issues. Don't add your race trait in the RD itself - due to a hardcoded issue, it causes some traits (like any with the Immortal tag) to not function properly.
```
```
Q: What DLCs do I need to play this mod?
A: You can play Warhammer: Geheimnisnacht with nothing but the most barebones basic version of Crusader Kings 2 with absolutely none of the DLC activated except for Charlemagne which is required for our 3-D models. However, all major DLCs are highly recommended, as they are either needed for race mechanics or to fully enhance the experience. Most importantly: Horse Lords - Many races, such as Blood Dragon Vampires and High Elfs use HL mechanics Legacy of Rome - Many powerful retinues that balance certain races are contained here The Republic - There are many different merchant republics scattered across the globe The Old Gods - Norse flavour and events for the Norscans and Kislevite pagans Jade Dragon - off-map Powers for Cathay and the Chaos Gods Holy Fury - Bloodlines, warrior lodges and More! No music, unit, or portrait packs are needed, as Geheimnisnacht uses its own music composed by Steve Gernes, custom 3-D models, and handmade portraits made by Silfae.
```
```
Q: How do I learn/use magic?
A: The Magic system is one of the big systems in need of a rebuild. In its current state, I'm not sure what works and what doesn't. Hopefully, I can finish it soon.
```
```
Q: Why can't Khornates or Blood Dragons learn magic?
A: Lore restriction, Khornates and Blood Dragons do not use or learn magic under any circumstances. This also means that it **won't** be implemented. Sorry, that's just how the lore works.
```
```
Q: Why is the Empire not unified?
A: Warhammer: Geheimnisnacht begins in IC 2010, over five centuries before the reign of Karl Franz and the familiar events of recent Warhammer canon such as Total War: Warhammer, the Storm of Chaos campaign, the End Times, etc. Three centuries before Magnus the Pious reunited the Empire in 2304 the Empire was in a state of civil war, as multiple Electors fought over the Imperial throne - and on the night of Geheimnisnacht in 2010, the day the mod begins, Vlad von Carstein of Sylvania revealed himself as a vampire and threw his hat into the ring by summoning a great undead host. This date was chosen because the divisions and events taking place at the time made for better gameplay than the more unified and - so to speak - more stable Warhammer world of the 2500s. Imagine trying to play a campaign when almost every faction is one giant blob!
```
```
Q: Are you going to expand the map to Cathay?
A: Short answer: No. Long answer: Very little information exists on Cathay, Ind, Nippon and the rest of the lands beyond the Mountains of Mourn in the Warhammer setting. We have nothing to work with, no idea how to properly put their factions together, what mechanics to give them, nothing. Not to mention that the game is already rather laggy with the current world map - expanding the map further and adding at least three new major kingdoms, not to mention all the other factions we'd have to put in, would likely make Geheimnisnacht unplayable on all but the strongest computers. We have, however, compromised and added some Cathayans to a colony in the Southlands. And with Jade Dragon introducing off-map powers we have begun work on representing Cathay in some way.
```
```
Q: Is there any End Times-style content? Like the world ending?
A: Something to that effect is planned, absolutely, but not yet fully implemented.
```
```
Q: I got killed by a Halfling in a minor skirmish!
A: Such is life in CK2, consider hiding in your keep if you're afraid of death.
```
```
Q: I want to help out! How can I join the Geheimnisnacht team?
A: It's as easy as making something we can implement into the mod! Put together an event, some code, a guide, etc. and contact @komioski, the current developer, or ping him in #general-discussion. If your content works, fits the setting and lore and doesn't possess our computers with daemons from the Chaos Realm, you will likely be recruited to the team! ...If it breaks everything, melts our PCs, overpowers the game or contains Warcraft references, you will likely not be recruited to the team. Please test your work before sending it to us, exorcising our offices and computers and replacing devoured team members can seriously delay work on updates.
```
```
Q: Is this mod dead? Why haven't I heard any news in a while?
A: Be Patient, I have a Development Plan/Roadmap, and I'm constantly active if you haven't heard anything it means I'm working hard on the next update! Trust me, you'll be informed if we ever stop development.
```
```
Q: Are there any plans to create a mod for CK3?
A: Yes we are currently working on it as your reading this.
```
```
Q: How do I become a Lab Rat/Clan Rat? What's the point?
A: Anyone who meets the requirements (over 100hrs of playtime, all DLCs, and lore knowledge) can join the lab rat program. We recruit in waves and the #admissions channel opens with little warning but if you manage to make it in it can be a lot of fun! Perks include exclusive sub-mods, access to Dev versions, multiplayer games with the Dev, and a chance to earn a seat on the Council of Thirteen. An exclusive group of contributors with some power over development.
```
```
Q: Does this mod accept donations or have a Patreon?
A: Yes it does you can find the Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/Komioski
```
```
Q: What is WH: Geheimnisnacht - Legacy?
A: With the recent worldwide pandemic this year, development was put on hiatus for a few months as I adjusted to working from home. This meant that my initial planned release window of summer for the main branch of the mod would have to be pushed back, making it more than 2 years since a public version has been made available to the community. Therefore I decided to set aside some time to rework a personal project of one of our Lab Rats @ManuSwaG, which compiled the old 1.2 version of Geheimnisnacht with my current development version into a "playable" (it didn't CTD at least) version of the mod compatible with CK2 v3.3.3. I spent a week recruiting a host of new Lab Rats and put them to work rooting out the most obvious/game-breaking bugs most of which I managed to fix. This slowly Built into The Clan and now this is has become the official name of the Main Branch as the release of CK3 may otherwise cause name confusion between versions.

Debug Info Editor by SirCobra (cobras_event_logger_v2.1.exe)
Version 2.1
Do you hate crashes? Do you want to help us (the WH: Geheimnisnacht team) solve the issues? In this case, you should try out this program!
Thanks to @SirCobra#7071 we have made our own version of the event logger, completely from scratch.
This program can modify the mod's decisions and events to add additional info to the game.log when they are firing (...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\logs\game.log).
It modifies events and decisions text files to add a 'log'-line in the immediate/effect clause.
Make sure you have enabled -debugscripts in your steam launch options!
Instructions:
1. Back away if you don't know what game.log is or haven't understood the description of the program
2. Read the Warnings!
3. Back up your decisions and events
4. Put the cobras_event_logger_v2.1.exe in the same folder, where the folders "events" and "decisions" are located.
4.1 It should be noted we are talking about the location of the mod's events/decisions, not the base game! They should be located at: ...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\mod\*your mod*
5. Run the program.
6. Press y if you want to edit the debug information.
7. Press 1 to Add Debug Info to events or press 4 to add it to decisions.
8. Make sure you have enabled -debugscripts in your steam launch options!
9. Run the game and play until a nice crash happens, look at game.log to find the bogus event.
10. When you've done testing, please report your findings.
Usually, the last lines in the game.log and error.log have caused the crash.
Upload either both files or the last lines in both files.
11. After you are done you can remove the debug info with option 7. (READ the section Warnings!)
It will remove all logs generated by this program.
12. Exit the program with option 0.s
Warnings:
1. game.log may become huge
2. The log changes some code in immediate and effect clauses, which can (but should not) cause crashes.
Additional info for modders:
1. Option 9 will only remove the lines generated by this program, but no manually generated logs.
2. If you've applied mode 1 and 4 (added commentary to both decisions and events), then the program will stay in a stable checksum rotation. This means it will always switch between the checksum of the active log and the disabled log.
It can't go back to the pre-edited checksum though, because some formatting is applied, when the program is executed for the first time.
Note:
If you have any problems with the program or you found a bug caused by the program, feel free contact me.

WH: Geheimnisnacht | Roadmap to 2.0
------------------------------------------------------
>The plan is to completely reorganize and often rewrite the entire codebase, at the same time, a merging program needs to be used to check that our files which
are often based on older versions of vanilla CK2 are now in fact based on the current version of those same files. This is what I spent the first 2 years doing,
and many of the files are up to date, but Events and Decisions as well as a few other files have been left behind and are in a sorry state.
I planned to continue this work but was interrupted by the changes in development that "Legacy" brought.
Additionally Much of the original GFX is beginning to show its age and adds a considerable weight to the system,
Therefore Ive detailed below the general requirements of a v2.0 release.
------------------------------------------------------
General Overhaul
------------------------------------------------------
>Everything in this section applies to ALL races unless it otherwise shouldnt apply due to lore or game balance
------------------------------------------------------
- Buildings need to be balanced/rebuilt to "replace" vanilla buildings instead of coded as entirely new chains as it breaks compatibility between races when captured,
they also need to be coded to the location culture instead of the Holder to stop them disappearing. Ive Begun this and hope to complete it by the end of the year
- Retinues need the same treatment... Ive also begun this and likewise will complete it by the end of the year. With some tweaking and balance.
These two systems alone define much of how a faction will play
- Societies need to be polished, expanded, and added for races all around the world. The possibilities are endless and each Faction/Race needs at least 3
- Magic and everything about it needs to be rewritten and polished, Factions missing unique magic like the Ogres, dwarf runemagic, or Orcs need that as well.
- Trade systems need to continue to be overhauled and expanded on. The original routes from v1.2 would probably be best, though cleaned up and modified
- the china offmap system from vanilla is only half converted to cathay
- Duels can always be expanded on and balanced more
- Cassus Bellis need a complete rewrite/cleanup
- All GFX (mostly just event pictures and portraits now) needs to be overhauled
we use a random and disgusting collection of event pics, and half of them in the mod folder arent even used in the mod
TWW has added alot of useable art for event pics
- Portraits need to be stripped down to modified vanilla and then built back up from there, they cause so many issues and humans look horrible half the time
They also take up most of the space in our mod folder
- The map needs to be polished, provinces borders cleaned, skaven moved, provinces removed so others can be added and so-on
- Artifact spawns need to be adjusted and ways to get all artifacts need to be added in game
- Mounts need to be built into a real system with a standard set of costs and ways to get the different beasts/vehicles as well as events to kill the living beasts or name them etc
- Ship creation system added from AGOT
- Everchosen Quest chain needs to be written
- Magic Power Places ( oghams, leylines, waystones ) need to be created with relevent effects
- All vanilla systems need to be adjusted or ported over
- Witch Hunters and congregation governments need to be given more polish
- TO BE CONTINUED....
