modding

[cerulean panther]

Don't worry about the stability thingy. It's a place holder before I learn how to make Ideas and how to add industry

[jade mauve]

ah alr

[cerulean panther]

For the TAG.XX is that just the event ID?

[jade mauve]

yeah

without the .t or .d

[cerulean panther]

Oh ok. I'll add those changes to my code

[jade mauve]

this is one example from the game files

it adds the "days" part, but the point gets across

[west wadi]

Y'all like how many cores and claims Romania can make with my romanian focus tree? 👽🦅

[cerulean panther]

So is country_event = Kingdom_of_Ireland.1 fine?

[cerulean panther]

Yeah I see. I won't need that as the event is going to be instant

[jade mauve]

it should be

[jade mauve]

im guessing its more of a meme mod

[west wadi]

Nah, i'm actually using historical and alternative history on it

[jade mauve]

then why so...big?

[west wadi]

The alternative hisotry part is where the bunch of cores and claims are

[west wadi]

Roman empire focus tree. After forming it you have the choice to expand it or just centralize it

[jade mauve]

uh, ok that makes more sense

im guessing you havent searched for cosmetic tags

[west wadi]

Not yet, the mod is still in development

[jade mauve]

aight, good luck then

[west wadi]

Thanks 🙏

[narrow steppe]

inshallah can we get a player-led peace conferences update soon holy shit when i invade mexico i want all of it not just 5 states

[timber zenith]

Skill issue

[sonic bone]

Does it not work anymore? Still seemed to work just fine for me after the update

[obtuse condor]

Overpowered

Uninspiring

Quite blatantly

[west wadi]

Cause making a historical + unhistorical (what ifs) like any mod that has this kind of thing is uninspiring. RT56? Uninspiring af

[ashen mural]

what is a better idea?

[limpid viper]

can someone help me, i was messing around with saves and ironman mode (just for fun) and now when i try to load up that same game it gives me "this save is from another version of the game and cannot be loaded"

for the record i didnt change the versions at all

[obtuse condor]

50+ more nations

In Germany

Then it should be finished

Italy is complete tho

[obtuse condor]

Is this hot? (b/w photo is an artistic choice)

Alright, probably the body size ain't big enough in comparison with vanilla's portrait

[scenic sonnet]

Yeah absoloutly

[stiff whale]

148 degrees celcius

[obtuse condor]

That looks good

[timid pebble]

any nudie mods?

[cerulean panther]

if i was to nick this: random_owned_state = {
limit = {
free_building_slots = {
building = industrial_complex
size > 1
include_locked = yes
}
OR = {
is_in_home_area = yes
NOT = {
owner = {
any_owned_state = {
free_building_slots = {
building = industrial_complex
size > 1
include_locked = yes
}
is_in_home_area = yes
}
}
}
}
}
add_extra_state_shared_building_slots = 1
add_building_construction = {
type = industrial_complex
level = 1
instant_build = yes
}
}

would this work for my industry focus?

[obtuse condor]

Would adding 75 nations and 30 focuses to a country be possible in a week?

[sinful eagle]

Is there a mod that automatically selects division spawn points?

[thorny niche]

bruh how do you justify that

[plucky glen]

Wait

I need modding tips

When making a mod where should I start

With the map? The units? The lore? The focuses

[timber zenith]

If you can do it then it's possible

[timber zenith]

I usually start with the map, then flesh out one country at a time

But save localisation, lore, gfx and that crap for after you've done the focuses, events and that stuff.

How many provinces are you capped at?

[analog sandal]

is hoi4 millenium dawn broken or sumthin

my mod says "log in to continue" when im logged into my paradox and steam

[arctic harbor]

I'd love to know how Iran is a Romanian claim

[vestal zenith]

Does anyone know how to fix this?

[west wadi]

One of the christian paths, "convert all muslims"

[arctic harbor]

MMM I LIKE THAT!

[west wadi]

Thanks :))
There will be 2 christian paths, one with converting people and a new gameplay mechanic, and the other one, creating the Orthodoc league, where you have to either conquer the whole Eastern Europe and puppet them, or invite every eastern european country and eliberate (puppet) Ukraine, Belarus, Finland and the Soviet Union.

blud didnt finish the meme

[south folio]

I am not quite sure what you mean. That code would function and add one civ to a random owned state with enough space.

[obtuse condor]

How did the Austrians react to the extinction of the house of Habsburg in 1740?

Wasnt Austria quite unstable in the first 50 years? 1741-1790

Of the house of Habsburg-lorraine

[winged briar]

There is only one problem, you need to change the free_building_slots part according to how many factories you will build at the end, for example, if you are going to build 1 factory right now, then size > 0, if 2, then size > 1. If you ask why, you will build 1 factory right now, but it is looking for a state with 2 free slots, if size > 0, any state with 1 free slot would be suitable. Other than that, yes it is fine

[fickle raft]

What is the name of the mod where random actions take place?

[fallow arch]

now this is the first, i never got this event when i play historical, or that i accidently left nonhistorical on

[nimble solar]

Just for Taft? Dang, that is nice

[south folio]

For the people who used to use Frigate's Content Pack. I have updated the Non-Naval version now to function with 1.14.2
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2922904220

[stuck quarry]

how can i remove a state from the game?

trying to reassign the provinces of one state to another then deleting it causes the game to crash when checking checksum

[obtuse condor]

Try to empty the state file

[round ermine]

this looks soooooooo boring

[round ermine]

you gotta use the nudge tool

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-HKNRUYF7M&pp=ygUSaG9pNCBzdGF0ZSBtb2RkaW5n

[obtuse condor]

I assume he already assigned a new / merged the state

and the new state sometimes caused conflict with the old one

[round ermine]

.

he said he is trying to do it

[obtuse condor]

ah

[round ermine]

and it causes the game to crash

so my thoughts are he probably isnt doing the entire process properly

[stuck quarry]

well id done it before

before this recent update with the map

i reassigned the provinces to a different state and deleted the original state file

and it worked

but now the game crashes upon launch if the state doesnt exist or doesnt have provinces

[timber zenith]

States have to be in numerical order so you'll have to replace the missing number

[stuck quarry]

will it mess anything up if i were to just derceate the number of all the following states by one

actually thats a stupid question

it gives an error but lets me load the map,

however nothing is logged to the error.log

"Province 12159 is setup as coastal but has no port building in the nudger. This will likely crash the game."

[pale sparrow]

It doesnt know where to display a port once you build one

[summer lotus]

@pale sparrow how many countries do you have in RT56 that comes with a focus tree and is somewhat relevant?

[pale sparrow]

Define somewhat relevant

I can do a WC with Luxembourgh

[summer lotus]

they, as AI countries, participate in the histoical world war, maybe

on nonhis ig it is chaotic enough

do you have Monaco or only Andorra?

[pale sparrow]

Both...

[summer lotus]

oh

I remember Andorra but somehow I don't remember Monaco very well

[pale sparrow]

Everyone except some south American historical participants

[summer lotus]

damn it

I am going to decline request to make an RT56-compatible version of my mod then

that gonna be way too many countries to tamper with

[summer lotus]

is German Reich working properly now though or as AI they still get choked at Western Europe sometimes?

cuz I remember it used to a turnoff that has been mentioned every now and then

[pale sparrow]

Ive not seen it happen in ages

[summer lotus]

thanks,

might actually turn on RT56 to play it for once in 2024 then

last time I booted it up was because somebody needed me to debug it over the strait adjacency rule in the Gulf

can probably make a limited version of my mod that is compatible with RT56 just so people can die in a broader term

ngl some countries really have cool focus trees now over there

[obtuse condor]

R56 is too basic

And easy

[summer lotus]

what mods are actually hard and balanced at the same time anyway?

[obtuse condor]

Darkest hour

it’s very hard to defeat the Soviets

as in 1941 they will have over 7 million deployed men

but you get some buffs

[summer lotus]

sounds fine to me

[obtuse condor]

it’s gonna be hard

but u do get

[summer lotus]

SOV AI in my mod can do 8M at Barb and still get rolled by my GER AI

[obtuse condor]

20% buff on everything

[obtuse condor]

they get buffs

If u don’t take Moscow

And Leningrad

And Stalingrad

[summer lotus]

in 1941?

[obtuse condor]

by 1941

yeah

they get buffs

And u get debuffs

[summer lotus]

just so you know

we basically kill people in 6 months in MP at Barb

[obtuse condor]

Darkest hour starts in 1933

so the Soviets have a surplus of 200k guns too

Also it needs

Historical divisions

40 width is best

[summer lotus]

been a while since I toggle DH back up again

[obtuse condor]

U played before?

[summer lotus]

@nimble solar oi j0n, will you upload my DH speedrun vid

haven't done it since when they were working on it

ah I playtest and debug mods

and I work on my own AI mod for micro/mp practice

[obtuse condor]

Damn that must be boring

[summer lotus]

which part?

[obtuse condor]

Working on ai mods

[summer lotus]

nah, is pretty fun

you see players getting rolled

and forced to use mp strategy against AI

[obtuse condor]

Yeah but it must get boring

After a few hours

Doing same stuff over and over

[summer lotus]

not really,

there is a lot to work on so it never gets boring

[obtuse condor]

The developer of umc

Said it’s boring to mod

He postponed his update by over 4 months now

[summer lotus]

I have enough fun with it I actually have barely played the actual game for a long time

and mostly just focus on modding and debugging during my free time

[obtuse condor]

You have over 10k hours?

[summer lotus]

12K

[obtuse condor]

💀

[summer lotus]

well I don't actually play that much for much of it

[obtuse condor]

U can get recruited by Russia

[summer lotus]

spent much time idle and observing AI performance

[obtuse condor]

To help in Ukraine

[summer lotus]

honestly I wouldn't mind if they actually invite me over

[obtuse condor]

https://tenor.com/view/пригожин-шойгу-герасимов-где-боеприпасы-gif-3045993754977191358

[summer lotus]

my mod has AI tossing this kind of divs against one another

SOV AI can even do 9M troops in 1942 with over 1.5k soft per division in battle

vanilla+, with the AI-controlled nations try a bit harder than in vanilla

[obtuse condor]

What’s the mod

💀

[summer lotus]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3125937738

that said, AI is AI

[obtuse condor]

Is it finished

[summer lotus]

path-based encirclement logic is very hard for it

[obtuse condor]

or in work

[summer lotus]

no

it works

[obtuse condor]

imma give it a try

will prob fail

[summer lotus]

it is basically a product anyone can play with all functions active

most of it, actually

some were hidden/deactivated

especially the one that gave dynamic balancing

[obtuse condor]

U should kinda change its picture

if I saw ur on the steam workshop

Id think it’s a meme mod

[summer lotus]

hmm thanks

hmm

but it is literally called Sheep's Mod right now

[obtuse condor]

yeah it looks like a meme mod ngl

[summer lotus]

well I have korean civil war and maybe meme mod fr

[obtuse condor]

Imma give it a try now

[summer lotus]

even have features that should not exist

[obtuse condor]

Downloaded it

[summer lotus]

👀

nice, thanks

I will do a historical DH in the meantime

[obtuse condor]

alr

[summer lotus]

oh, you can try the Soviet Union or France

Germany is not bad but looking for more input from the Allied nations instead

[obtuse condor]

Why does Churchill die

[summer lotus]

not yet

can't kill him yet

oh, it is just for flavour

mod actually started over two reddit posts

[obtuse condor]

It’s historical

[summer lotus]

yeah

[obtuse condor]

he was a drunkard

Afterall

[summer lotus]

yeah, so the idea is that since Churchill flees to Canada if UK caps

he gets bored

and drinks more

if he dies the British government in exile may as well just fold

or not 👀

[obtuse condor]

You could a small

[summer lotus]

or you get Da Queen

[obtuse condor]

Ss vs wehrmatch rivalry

not sure if it’s easy to do but I’d be more fun

[summer lotus]

hmm I can only give mechanics that are balanced

otherwise the mod is vanilla

so people cannot make too much excuse when they die to AI

[obtuse condor]

like make Hitler die at some point

[summer lotus]

oh

that one will do

yeah, right

[obtuse condor]

like if ss

[summer lotus]

if Churchill can die

so should Hitler

[obtuse condor]

Yeah

Like if he pisses off the ss

[summer lotus]

I actually thought of the issue with SS and Wehrmacht

[obtuse condor]

he gets killed

[summer lotus]

there is a baseline for it already

[obtuse condor]

If wehrmatch wins 100% rivalry

[summer lotus]

some groundwork

[obtuse condor]

Hitler should get killed

[summer lotus]

but it is not relevant at the moment cuz people keep toggling it on

💀

then blame their defeat on GER AI getting buffs

even though players can get access to it too

[obtuse condor]

it might be air

[summer lotus]

so I hid it completely

[obtuse condor]

That’s costing them to lose

[obtuse condor]

You could add debufs

As the war

Goes on

[summer lotus]

yeah,

it exists

[obtuse condor]

Every 1 million casualties

[summer lotus]

it is already there

[obtuse condor]

oh

I’m not in the war

Part

Yet

[summer lotus]

but people blamed their defeat on this kind of stuffs

so I hid it

you saw the events at the start?

[obtuse condor]

Play Germany and roll the ai

Simple

[summer lotus]

there is one which says "default (recommended)"?

or wait

[obtuse condor]

Yes

[summer lotus]

was it off

yea

[obtuse condor]

Germany will revive massive bufs

[summer lotus]

there is a second option

but I hid it

ye it is a dynamic buff system tailored to Blitzkrieg

do well you live

do bad you explode

it is more than that but yeah

[obtuse condor]

I mean that kinda makes playing Germany

Op

[summer lotus]

lol wait til you see playtesters meeting SOV

bricked

[obtuse condor]

The soviet ai is a lot more buffed than in darkest hour?

[summer lotus]

oh it is as strong as vanilla SOV AI can be

[obtuse condor]

I know how to easily defeat them lol

Call Japan in the war

Soviets rush all their

Divs

To Manchuria

[summer lotus]

maybe

[obtuse condor]

U can try it

Test it out

[summer lotus]

maybe

you think people didn't try?

[obtuse condor]

Js help Japan defeat china

[obtuse condor]

it’s a real problem tho

[summer lotus]

mett managed to Sealion before Barb

then he started Barb

and quit

[obtuse condor]

if Japan defeats china they declare on the Soviets

Whyd he quit?

[summer lotus]

cuz he couldn't push

so he just quit and played something else

[obtuse condor]

If the mod is too hard

then it’s not gonna be really playable

[summer lotus]

it is meant for mp practice after all

[obtuse condor]

u can defeat the Soviets?

[summer lotus]

yeah

[obtuse condor]

What’s the trick

[summer lotus]

just micro well

infantry is shit

lol you can push nothing with infantry unless you are the Allies at D-Day

[obtuse condor]

No supply

[obtuse condor]

What about when u run out of supply

For ur tanks

in Russia

[summer lotus]

then you just get stuck

[obtuse condor]

Game never ends

that’s the point

[summer lotus]

well, to help you with that

mod has extra supply hubs on the map

👀

[obtuse condor]

You can make it harder by removing Colman gove

[summer lotus]

to help you push SOV

[obtuse condor]

A lot more or a little?

[summer lotus]

a few more

some extra ports as well

like 8 more in Russia proper

[obtuse condor]

Like past Moscow and caucus it’s no supply

[summer lotus]

you can spawn hubs in setting though

[obtuse condor]

for free?

[summer lotus]

if you aren't fascist

yeah

[obtuse condor]

oh

[summer lotus]

fascist is banned from doing that cuz otherwise they just kill everyone

only player can see it of course

it spawns hub for everyone

[obtuse condor]

I think the best way to win is

annex sov

easy

[summer lotus]

👀

fair

but just do some decent tanks

[obtuse condor]

The same templates as in vanilla work

?

[summer lotus]

not howitzer tanks, no

but template is the same

as mod is pretty much vanilla

[obtuse condor]

I mean they are kinda op

especially in Libya

When fighting Egypt

[summer lotus]

theres still much to work on though

so much to improve

[obtuse condor]

Definitely not noob friendly

[summer lotus]

well, no, it might be harder than EAI

[obtuse condor]

Harder than world ablaze too?

[summer lotus]

not too sure

WA does a lot to nerf people down

mechanically it isn't difficult

also lacks the same Mass Assault doctrine of vanilla

[obtuse condor]

imma play till 45

[summer lotus]

as whom?

[obtuse condor]

let’s see if I survive

Germany

[summer lotus]

what did you set as doctrine for SOV AI anyway?

[obtuse condor]

Allied is boring

[summer lotus]

if you want some more fun, put it on Superior Firepower

pick 6/1 + tanks

[obtuse condor]

That makes it harder or easier?

[summer lotus]

it weakens SOV AI

[obtuse condor]

I’ll Js invade turkey

Puppet

And call Japan in too

the Soviets will rush divs through everywhere

And die of attrition in Manchuria

[summer lotus]

are you going to Sealion as well?

[obtuse condor]

Yeah

[summer lotus]

the only aspect that is of interest to me right now for GER is actually Sealion

and maybe some event chain after that

[obtuse condor]

British navy shouldnt be too hard

I’ll make fast cruisers

[obtuse condor]

India declares independence

When u take uk

Or no?

[summer lotus]

66%

[obtuse condor]

ok good thing I didn’t go iron man

I can save if they don’t

because invading India is shit

[summer lotus]

you will be given buff for naval invasion later

which you will be able to see later

[obtuse condor]

The English fleet is weak

[summer lotus]

also let you make more dockyard and build more ships

mostly so you can invade the US quickly if you have to

[obtuse condor]

they have old ships

invading the usa is hard

in darkest hour

They had over 4k defense

[summer lotus]

sounds fine

[obtuse condor]

they spammed mechanised

my infantry and tanks couldn’t do stuff

Their divs was anti tank and mechanised

[summer lotus]

yeah that is very close to MP level of defense

but well the game has to be rigged for AI to do that

vanilla AI can't afford that much

[obtuse condor]

I mean

[summer lotus]

which is actually why I have been removing/hiding all the buffs away in my mod

[obtuse condor]

Mechanised is kinda op

[summer lotus]

since people have disdain towards buff on AI

[obtuse condor]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-dog-suspicious-look-suspicious-doubt-dog-doubt-gif-23680990

Am leaking this to the press

[summer lotus]

👀 what?

yeah? they know

I remove a lot

and I just hide the access otherwise

the more AI improve the less they need to rely on buff

which players have access to as well but eh

[obtuse condor]

do they spam planes in mass or not

[summer lotus]

maybe

[obtuse condor]

France usually spams 2-4k planes

in a few mods

[summer lotus]

vanilla FRA can't do that

they don't have the ic

any mods that do that buff FRA

[obtuse condor]

dark hour Europe in flames

Total war

[summer lotus]

so my mod is only as hard as vanilla gets

[obtuse condor]

many do

ok so if they won’t spam 4k planes+

[summer lotus]

if I start giving buff it will be unfair

[obtuse condor]

I can defeat France

[summer lotus]

💀

oh of course you can

I haven't fixed their tank prod yet

[obtuse condor]

What’s wrong with it

[summer lotus]

I will be moving them to do heavy TDs soon

but right now it is not a focus

since most playtesters are playtesting for Soviets right now

[obtuse condor]

Imma Js skip tanks

Relying on mech

With a lot of anti tank

[summer lotus]

unless your AI relies on buff

mech actually kills them

EAI devs know this too

[obtuse condor]

Yeah that’s imma use mech

Tanks are a too weak for defense

mech is for both

[summer lotus]

anyway yeah, I could have just made AI cracked but it would be unfair for players

it was supposed to be cracked for both, and thus brutal

but people wanted it vanilla

so it stayed vanilla

[obtuse condor]

Alright imma focus on the mod now

time to try hard

[summer lotus]

can you stream it?

👀

[obtuse condor]

I’m chatting in mob

playing on Oc

Pc

[summer lotus]

anyway yeah once FRA works properly

they will stop making infantry

and just do more tanks like FRA does in mp

[obtuse condor]

the ai stops making infantry?

Or France

[summer lotus]

FRA AI

they have enough inf as is

need more tanks

[obtuse condor]

they have a extend the maginot

Focus

Or not

[summer lotus]

💀 they do

but it doesn't help that much

[obtuse condor]

Oh it does

[summer lotus]

planning to let them do 4-6 heavy TDs with like 1500-2000 hard attack in battle instead

otherwise they can't really survive

[obtuse condor]

I’ll take high casualties

over 300-500k

[summer lotus]

right now I don't think it would be a particular problem

just speedbump

[obtuse condor]

Is starting war early better?

Or should I go 39

[summer lotus]

up to you

I mean, anything can be used as a sample

just don't paradrop France

[obtuse condor]

Why not

[summer lotus]

find out yourself

[obtuse condor]

that def makes playing Italy ass

[summer lotus]

well as Italy you still get Swiss Gold

[obtuse condor]

U can’t paradrop in France

Knocking them out instantly

Or within weeks

[rose heath]

it depends
it usually doesn't hurt to suck up a minor quickly if you can

[summer lotus]

you can't do that in mp, so I am not letting you do it in the mod

[obtuse condor]

Mefo bill repayment

[summer lotus]

time to practice your micro like a mp tryhard

unless you only want to play as Bulgaria

and stack 90 mech at D-Day because you can

[obtuse condor]

Just to lose

[summer lotus]

totally cool tho 👀

[obtuse condor]

[summer lotus]

works sometimes

so you have to give them that

[obtuse condor]

I think imma Js rush Poland

[summer lotus]

early?

[obtuse condor]

Yeah

1937

[summer lotus]

yeah

oh

yea

just do it

[obtuse condor]

Waiting for justifacion

[summer lotus]

ah,

I remember why I stopped playtesting DH

cuz no designers

right

since it is still in 1.12.x

[obtuse condor]

U can still play it

Without updating

[summer lotus]

and it nerfed Mass Assault

sad

[obtuse condor]

I love the mod since it gives good events

like their interesting to read

[summer lotus]

mass assault is actually a very strong doctrine against AI

[obtuse condor]

I never use it

even as Soviets

I go superior fire power

[summer lotus]

MA in KR is insane though

can be really insane

[obtuse condor]

I don’t get it how do u get 1.5k soft attack

[summer lotus]

for Eastern European nations

[obtuse condor]

max soft attack with 40 width tanks I can get is like 500

[summer lotus]

500 is base stat

in battle you get combative modifiers

[obtuse condor]

Oh

[summer lotus]

thats where you get stats

[obtuse condor]

In dh usa had over 2k soft attack

they were using

35 width mech

With anti tank

Dh mod

[summer lotus]

DH buffs stat anyway, still less than some MP mod

some MP mods let you have 4K stats with ease

lol 29K hard attack heavy TDs in MP

[obtuse condor]

Whys ur mod 1.14

[summer lotus]

yeah

oh

🤔

what is the current version

[obtuse condor]

2

💀

[summer lotus]

ok

[obtuse condor]

With new Brazil dlc

Worst dlc ever

[summer lotus]

lemme check what version it is

[obtuse condor]

Never found one

I found German players losing to France

in mp

[summer lotus]

oh, that's common

[obtuse condor]

France extended maginot and build level 10 forts

[summer lotus]

nah that's dumb

[obtuse condor]

He failed to bypass

[obtuse condor]

Them

[summer lotus]

this

is how you fastgame GER

[obtuse condor]

Is that anti tank

Or heavy tank

[summer lotus]

those are French heavy TDs

they can do 4K hard attack in battle

[obtuse condor]

Yea and takes 10 years to build 1 division

[summer lotus]

nah they have like 4 of it by Danzig

[obtuse condor]

U gotta pick between

Air or guns

Or tanks

[summer lotus]

and just rolled into Rhineland while Poland does mass mob

it just fastgames GER

unless Poland is banned

[obtuse condor]

Oh the west wall is too easy to break

[summer lotus]

well cuz heavy TDs are a lot

[obtuse condor]

With air u can destroy

Them too

[summer lotus]

they just click any medium tank off the map

[obtuse condor]

U don’t needs tds

Js air

[summer lotus]

lol wait til you see people with 12 heavy tank divs as GER rolling through maginot

you see a lot in elwolf

a lot in vanilla mp

they can hit very hard

[obtuse condor]

I never did it

Never even use heavy tanks

everyone told me their trash

[summer lotus]

cuz only France or Germany may touch that

if SOV does that GER just goes 48 med divs at Barb

and quantity wins

[obtuse condor]

I js think early heavy tanks

are very trash

And by 1940

When u research improved heavy tank

[summer lotus]

nah is good

you only do either basic heavy or advanced heavy

[obtuse condor]

it’s too late

[summer lotus]

1940 heavy is actually shit

[obtuse condor]

it’s tiger tank tho

[summer lotus]

nobody does it in semi-comp mp

[obtuse condor]

🔥

[summer lotus]

well

indeed

its lit

[obtuse condor]

That’s what makes it

Good

it’s name

tiger 1 tank

[summer lotus]

btw yeah

you get stuffs like this in vanilla

[obtuse condor]

Main battle tanks are the best

In late game

[obtuse condor]

U def used some buff

[summer lotus]

@obtuse condor where are you at right now anyway?

1938?

[obtuse condor]

1937

I’m still paused

☠️

[summer lotus]

nah it was just SPG being SPG

usually in practice you do like 1/5 of that soft attack

[obtuse condor]

The terrain should give u debuff

[summer lotus]

and about double the hard

[obtuse condor]

And in Africa there shouldn’t be supply

[summer lotus]

you don't get penalty on desert with camelry tank

[obtuse condor]

Oh that’s what ur doing

[summer lotus]

lol camelry tank has more HP than mech

[past rover]

So I'm working on a mod that adds some states without overhauling the entire game and basically I edited the First Ljubljana award so if Hungary owns Banat they also get West Banat. But Hungary only gets the territory when the Event fires (hungary.6). How do I make it into the event? the game says "limit" is invalid token

[obtuse condor]

Try it against heavy tanks

[summer lotus]

hmmm send the image of the code

[summer lotus]

nah they still do it in mp

cuz camelry has hp

not as much as irregular cav in Kaiserreich though

[obtuse condor]

Camerly defeating heavy tanks is crazy

[obtuse condor]

What if u use super heavy tanks

[summer lotus]

MA Irregular Cav in KR gets their damage rounded down to 0 after battle 💀

[obtuse condor]

for maginot

[summer lotus]

send the code of where it says limit was invalid token

normally debug should send you the error.log with the exact line where shjt goes wrong

[summer lotus]

oh

before limit you have to use if

if = {
limit = {
condition
}
effect
}

[past rover]

ohhhhh

damn im such an idiot

[summer lotus]

nah, is fine

new people mistake

I had that too

okay,

sheep mod is 1.14.2 now

I actually updated it for the latest patch but forgot to change the description

[past rover]

I'm also getting loads of errors for Italy events

which is funny

since I dont remember editing that

[summer lotus]

might be vanilla

there are bugs from vanilla which persist

[past rover]

nvm didnt close a syntax

[summer lotus]

👀

[summer lotus]

so you really didn't remember editing it

oh

that

[past rover]

I only added the line not editing it

[summer lotus]

ngl tho I usually do my mod in the basic notepad

notepad+ hurts my eyes sometimes

[past rover]

since I just copy paste and change the numbers I thought the syntax worked

[past rover]

NUL times 2982

[solar stream]

Does anyone here have experience with modding Millenium Dawn? I'm having trouble adding new generals to the game

[past rover]

I am making progress tho, last time I tried editing I made everything below the First Ljubjana award disappear for German focus tree

[solar stream]

added a new general to the characters file and recruited it in the country history file

[past rover]

@summer lotus I just made the most unholy typo ever

I wanted to be West Banat (State 764)

and left out the 7

so if Hungary own Banat

THEY GET BERLIN

[grizzled sandal]

How can I see the events ID ? I want to trigger them on their exact historical dates

[past rover]

country_event = {
id = event id

[grizzled sandal]

thank you

[past rover]

I'm a bit a confused on what to do, basically Germany will offer Hungary Burgenland for co-operation but I have no idea how to do it

what I'm trying is that the event triggers only after the Anschluss and only if German opinion of Hungary is over 60

[nimble solar]

Wdym, if you mean your own gameplay you could post it and I put it on my community tab

[summer lotus]

have you tried other AI mods btw?

🤔

other than EAI, maybe

[grizzled sandal]

How can I make sure events trigger on an exact date ?

[fallow forum]

How do you actually have to set mods so that they always remain up to date, i.e. the yellow exclamation mark behind them disappears?

[ashen mural]

I have a good modding idea But Its really Big and im a beginner, should i First make small mods before making a Big mod?

[timber zenith]

You can use an on_daily, and make the limit be the date you want the event to trigger

[timber zenith]

If you're on steam that will happen automatically if hoi4 updates

[timber zenith]

Make something small first, definitely

[ashen mural]

Should i make it in depth or really just the Most basic of the basic?

[timber zenith]

In depth in the way it should teach you all the mechanics you want to learn

[fallow forum]

Hello, I need help with the localization files. I have created a few new Reich Commissariats and would like to have them appear in the decisions in a clean version without underscores. I have now edited the file and saved it in the corresponding folder in the mod. However, that doesn't help, even worse, the Mefo decisions, for example, now also have an underscore.

[fallow arch]

is anyone else having this problem rn im on the rt56 mod but it was happening with me on the great war redux mod, its just minor but the text always says "Equipment_Description", i never had this problem before the dlc update

[nimble solar]

No, I have tried none. You are the only AI enhancement mod I have tried

[humble cedar]

So since the provinces map has been updated.

How can i update the current provinces map to the provinces map my mod has?

which changes position of already-used provinces instead of creating new ones

[obtuse condor]

Change the James of the states in your mod so they are the same as base game ones

[humble cedar]

I've already solved that problem

I renamed every single state to 970 and above till 1014

my problem is that I am probably forced to remake the provinces map cause I can't find a way to just, replace only south america

because im 99% sure only south america and a bit of north america have changed provinces

[obtuse condor]

Yeah you will have to do that manually

[humble cedar]

well then

this is going to be fun (NOT)

[stuck quarry]

fun

[wintry anchor]

making a small mod, tuva communist branch

[ebon rapids]

wheres my path to reform austria-hungary????????????????

lol jokes aside, looks fun

[lofty plaza]

Looking good so far

[timber zenith]

In your province bmp file cut out south america, and any other region that added provinces with the new update

Then paste in the same areas from the vanilla bmp file

[vestal zenith]

Add this at the bottom of the code in equipment_I_english.yml at localisation folder of the mod.

EQUIPMENT_DESCRIPTION:0 "$NAME$"

[past rover]

im trying to make an event fire on these conditions
if = {
limit = {
GER = { has_opinion = { target = HUN value > 59 } }
HUN = {
country_event = { id = hungary.7 days = 2 }
}
}
}

this is part of the focus completion reward

not sure why it doesnt work

[obtuse condor]

Yea

[past rover]

[11:22:37][no_game_date][trigger.cpp:672]: Invalid trigger 'country_event' in common/national_focus/germany.txt line : 3563
[11:22:37][no_game_date][trigger.cpp:540]: Error: "Unknown trigger-type: country_event, near line: 3563" in file: "common/national_focus/germany.txt" near line: 3564

umm

I might have

idk

messed up a bit

[humble cedar]

I am 99% sure north america also got a few provinces.

[timber zenith]

Idk I haven't played vanilla in a looooong time

[timber zenith]

You probably messed up a bracket

[past rover]

I got it working

[timber zenith]

Dope

[past rover]

how do I make an event get triggered 2 days after another event

or better yet after Germany annexes Austria

[timber zenith]

After the event pops up, or after they select an option in the event?

Ohh

[past rover]

is there like a cosmetic tag or something

[timber zenith]

You can check the anschluss event and add a country_event effect in there

it's germany.4 iirc

Cosmetic tags are for country names/colours/etc

[past rover]

okay

[humble cedar]

Found out.

for some reason.

Iran got a single new province as well

[fallow arch]

alr ty

[past rover]

So you tell me the sole point of Germany.26 is to trigger Germany.4

so I'm gonna use Germany.4 to trigger another Germany event

and use that to trigger an event for Hungary
Germany.26 --> Germany.4 --> Germany.129 --> Hungary.7

[timber zenith]

do you mean germany.28?

or 126

[timber zenith]

either way that event serves as a notification for austria

they get the choice of saying yes or no

[obtuse condor]

How do I make so all countries in the Soviet faction leave it?

In an event

How do I increase the resistance in German controlled Soviet states?

[fallow arch]

totally historical trust

bad template but i tried

[humble cedar]

the nudger is telling me there's an invalid province for buildings here.

but there is absolutely nothing here.

at least this works now

[past rover]

Guys how does Italy release Albania

is via a decision or some national focus

because I added a state in Macedonia that went to Albania

and when Italy releases Albania it probably wont go to them

is it Support Albanian Irredentism by any chance?

[stray heart]

I downloaded millenium dawn and got this error message. How do I fix this?

I believe i'm using the right version (latest)

[sullen badge]

Hey i need some help with mods in the launcher, no matter what i do the mods i download from the steam workshop arent appearing

i have asked in #ask-for-help-here but no one answered

[stray heart]

thanks it works now!

[humble cedar]

it is via decision

[bitter rover]

is it possible to get the province a unit is standing in?

or get all provinces in a state?

[past rover]

thanksss

[thick robin]

do tdebug in console

and hover over the tile

it will tell you the province id

anyway im fixing animated historical portraits thoughts?

[bitter rover]

I mean in an effect, not in-game

[thick robin]

hmm

[humble cedar]

seems very ambitious, hope you succeed in your objective.

[thick robin]

can you tell me what exactly you're trying to do

[bitter rover]

Setup a system for splitting state control

[thick robin]

it took me like 3 hours to find out how to replicate videos and make them into portraits

but now its easy to make it

all i have to do is find videos for all of it

[humble cedar]

you mean as in like, a new state?

[thick robin]

hm

[bitter rover]

No, splitting a single state between two countries.

[humble cedar]

I do not think that is possible.

[bitter rover]

This

[thick robin]

they're all individual tiles?

[bitter rover]

More accurate

This, while at peace

Instead of only while at war

I do know the "true" owner still gets all the factories etc, I just want map changes

[thick robin]

so you mean like

occupation

state control

i dont think thats possible unless at war

if you wanted to do something like that i think you would have to redo tiles

hold on let me try

oh @bitter rover

i get it

[humble cedar]

And how did you even achieve this?

[thick robin]

ok yes

its possible

hold on

[thick robin]

so you mean something like setcontrol?

but for actual modding

all you need is province id

[humble cedar]

i think bro left us

XD

[thick robin]

i was confused at his question

ok

[humble cedar]

anyways.

[thick robin]

i will continue with animating leaders

[humble cedar]

Here's my work.

[thick robin]

looks nice

[humble cedar]

Im working on like

[thick robin]

you made the map thing

?

[humble cedar]

"What if greece won the Greco-Turkish war"

[thick robin]

ah

[humble cedar]

I just made some changes in states.

of course, because i don't know how to make new provinces, i took provinces straight out of africa

the impassable terrain more specifically, since well, nobody is gonna use those

[thick robin]

speaking of maps, i was playing around with frankensteining different map mods (while also fixing them ofc) and i created a masterpiece

let me show you

it runs so smoothly

even on high

[humble cedar]

oh that looks nice

[thick robin]

like it doesnt lag

and i have a bad pc

[humble cedar]

looks good

Here's the borders of Greece and Turkey

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1199829016140582972/1203821403401621524/image.png?ex=6600a18c&is=65ee2c8c&hm=f8bf12e18b24f598ad5cf87e3833f01e99fcef6303912649f5186c039f370154&

[thick robin]

Hmm

it looks good

[humble cedar]

I've taken some states from Kaiserredux and some from Fuhhreredux to achieve this

[thick robin]

isnt that like that one allied plan after ww1

[humble cedar]

yep

But i've mostly taken inspiration from Fuhrreredux

[bitter rover]

yes, which is what I was asking how to get

I can't seem to find a SINGLE way to get province id anywhere

[thick robin]

there is a list

https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/List_of_provinces

wait are links allowed

[bitter rover]

I need to be able to get it dynamically

[thick robin]

go ingame while you mod

tdebug

[bitter rover]

Like, get the id of the province a unit is on

[thick robin]

province id

wym a unit is on

[humble cedar]

And yesterday i've got the random inspiration to just fix the arabian borders, thus it lead me to this

[humble cedar]

.

[bitter rover]

Using code; get unit -> get province id of the unit's location

[thick robin]

whats furherr redux

[humble cedar]

a mod which is simply

[bitter rover]

so puerto rico in this example

[humble cedar]

"what if germany lost world war 1 but through the eyes of kaiserreich"

[thick robin]

oh

[thick robin]

oh

[bitter rover]

But I need to to be dynamic, not just the same province id every time. That way I can split state control without manually scripting every single split

might be asking too much from pdx though...

[thick robin]

Hmmm Im trying to think of a way

[thick robin]

i mean so what you're saying is

lets say a person invades a nation

the troop that they have on an occupied province will be given to them?

[humble cedar]

from what i have understood he simply wants that a specific unit of his choosing, wherever it steps it will switch control to the ROOT nation

[thick robin]

or are you saying a random unit will spawn on a province owned by an enemy

[thick robin]

ok hm

[humble cedar]

I don't think that's theoritically possible to achieve.

[thick robin]

i mean like

that would all have to be manually done or something

but like

idk

oh i know

i know

wait

[bitter rover]

yeah

[bitter rover]

w e l l

[thick robin]

so just make it check

wait

wait

[bitter rover]

Literally all pdx had to do is a all_state_provinces scope :(

[thick robin]

let me test something

no it is possible

it is possible

wait

i know exactly what you're talking about

and ive seen it before

hold on

[thick robin]

you know the japanese border war thing

they require you to be in a province for it to start

then it checks and initiates

hold on

[bitter rover]

oddly enough I can't find it anywhere

did you find anything?

[thick robin]

yes

its in road to 56

i am checking its files

add_namespace = japan_border_conflict

#initial border incident against Soviet Union
country_event = {
id = japan_border_conflict.1
title = japan_border_conflict.1.t
desc = japan_border_conflict.1.desc
picture = GFX_report_event_japan_army_mountainside

is_triggered_only = yes

option = {
    name = japan_border_conflict.1.a
}

}

ok but im trying to look for how the event is triggered

[bitter rover]

probably a decision

[thick robin]

GOT IT

wait i got it but i didnt

because now im trying to find out the original state

[bitter rover]

A

[thick robin]

#Decision to escalate incident on border with SOV to border conflict

@bitter rover

well

this is not

[bitter rover]

I don’t see anything province related yeah

[thick robin]

because this is still in something japan owns

so ig it just checks if there's troops in that state thats how rt56 does it

[thick robin]

you could probably just check if a state is owned by the original country

im not sure if you could do that with province

sorry

anyone no offhand what file contains the actual definition of a ship class? Thanks!

nevermind i found it

[radiant oracle]

is there any workaround for this?

[pale sparrow]

no

well

Just move the local version somewhere else

isn't really a workaround, just solves the issue

alright fair enough

[vestal zenith]

Guys. Which is better for tech_naval_researched_item_bg.dds texture?

[scenic sonnet]

First one

[pale sparrow]

yes

has been for a while now

[humble cedar]

Shouldn't this make it so an event will happen after a specific ammount of days?

[humble cedar]

i moved it in the "1936 start" part.

hopefully it works now

alright next question.

does anyone know how to make an event that will fire when a specific nation has conquered a specific state?

example :

if greece takes constantinople, they will have the option to move their capital to Constantinople or remain in Athens

[pale bridge]

iirc its called like that

[obtuse condor]

im gonna add to my HOI4 MULTI MOD a LOT of new unit,division and template icons

so YALLZ can make a lot of FOREIGN LEGION units

[humble cedar]

can you by any chance supply me with an example?

[humble cedar]

will i be able to limit it on greece only?

ah i can see now

thank you

Will this only launch when the state is fully controlled by another country or when it is occupied?

just like for example there is for the elections in greece at the start of the game

something like this?
