toasterwarrior posted:Anyone know how to unfuck the Venice start in CK2+ 867? The pagan situation is just too busted for me to deal with and I feel like I'm doing chores making sure they actually form kingdoms instead of collapsing every generation. EDIT: Nevermind, it was easier than it looked! The special titles file didn't have the family palaces assigned so technically the Patricians were unlanded and Venice was considered a non-maritime republic! Fixing it is easy. Just go into CK2+'s mod folder -> commons -> landed_titles -> special_titles, and then add this block of text right after b_ziani's entry: quote:

So I've been trying to strongly reduce those random siege events because they are awful as hell. In my custom mod I've increased their mean time to happen a hundredfold and made the effects far more severe. That's all, I left the structure of the code intact. But it doesn't work. I know how to do the basic modding and my other small modifications work just fine except this one. Anyone got a quick guesstimate or even experience on what it could be.

Strudel Man posted:Which events do you mean? Yeah I meant the random 'food smuggled in', 'defenders sallied forth from the gate' and all that nonsense. Found out they all have a mean time to happen of 1 month with a bunch of modifiers depending on your ruler's traits and attributes. Explains why they happen so goddamn often.

Modifiers for pulse events also function backwards from normal - while modifiers greater than one make normal events less likely, slowing them down, for pulse events they increase the weighting, making the event more likely.

I spent the money on HOI2, HOI3, and EU3 before a good friend convinced me to get CK2 and it was a total waste. CK2 really blew away my every expectation.

CK2 has brought in a new group of "casual" players that don't know the meaning of complexity. The next CK2 patch should bring back obtuse UI, VIIs resource system, and HoIs time system & research tree for ultimate incomprehensibility. E: And supply lines.

uh zip zoom posted:Can reformed paganism create holy orders? Also, how are holy wars declared? I just reformed/became Emperor of Scandinavia and I would like to know what to do with all of my new power. Norse pagans (reformed or not) get a Holy Order, the Jomsvikings. The trigger is the year being past 920 and Stettin/Szczechn being controlled by Norse, though the activation event has a MTTH around 50 years so you need to wait a while. The other pagans don't.

Well this is awkward. A great holy war for Hungary was called by the Slavic high priest; naturally I accept the call and start gathering my armies. Not a month later the Pope calls a holy war for Hungary too, which I think is the first time I've seen two separate faiths holy war for the same kingdom.
