Campaign AI Entries List

**TheSavage** · March 31, 2009, 02:42 PM

The purpose of this thread is to compile information about DB entries related to the campaign AI. All the entries all listed in the posts below. If you think you know what an entry does, reply and I'll add you information to the original posts. This is to serve as a reference until we get official documentation from CA.

Note: For many of these entries (but not all), it is obvious from the name what, generally, the entry affects. But the specific effect that the number has may still be completely unclear.

Thanks to Quixote for filling in a lot of unknowns.

CAMPAIGN_AI_PERSONALITY_JUNCTIONS

Description:
The numbers in this file impact on specific behaviors of the AI. Some appear to be simple priorities, some are multipliers, while others define minimums, maximum, thresholds, or other set values.

Abbreviations:
WAPM = War and Peace Manager
BAWP = Base Attitude War and Peace? (Thanks Quixote)

BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_ECONOMIC
BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_EDUCATION
BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_HAPPINESS
BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_MILITARY

Pretty self-explanatory, these deal with how the AI prioritizes it's spending. They add up to 1, so if you have .7 military bias, it'll spend 70% of it's available money on military things (Quixote07)

Need definitions for "region group", "region goal", "development", and "buffer zone".

BASIC_INCOME_PROPORTIONAL_SAVINGS_PER_TURN
how much of it's income the AI will save for "financial emergancy" situations (where they spend more than they receive for a period of time) (Quixote07)

DESIRE_BUFFER_ZONE_CLEAR_BUFFER_ZONE_BEHAVIOUR_ABOVE
DESIRE_BUFFER_ZONE_INVOKE_BUFFER_ZONE_BEHAVIOUR_BELOW
Need definition for "buffer zone".
My current guess is that it has to do with diplomatic relations (Quixote07)

FINANCIAL_ANALYSIS_TURNS_TO_ALLOW_OVERSPEND

These control financial emergencies. They set a goal for the AI to achieve with it's spending, and how bad it'll let things get before it won't spend any more, and for how long (Quixote07)

GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_FACTION
GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_PERSONALITY
GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_REGION
GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_REGION_GROUP
These values control how much freedom the AI has to adapt it's spending priorities based on the above variables (Quixote07)

HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_FOR_NEUTRAL
HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_LAND_PATH

HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_SEA_PATH
As far as I can tell, inverse is better for friend/enemy. So the higher the multiplier is for friends, the more likely the AI is to help you. The higher it is for enemies, the less likely it is that the AI will bother to attack you if you're far away. The other three deal with the logistical side (Quixote07)

HLP_MINIMUM_ACCEPTABLE_FIRST_ORDER_FRIENDLINESS_LEVEL_TO_CONSIDER_SPECULATIVE_PATH_ACROSS_TERRITORY

do you think the BAWP entries are percentages?

there are 5 of them... each at 20... so 100%? all weighted the same?

**Quixote07** · March 31, 2009, 04:47 PM

That's my current guess, and how I've formulated my AI. Seems to work that way.

BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_ECONOMIC
BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_EDUCATION
BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_HAPPINESS
BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_MILITARY
BASE_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_PRESTIGE

Pretty self-explanatory, these deal with how the AI prioritizes it's spending. They add up to 1, so if you have .7 military bias, it'll spend 70% of it's available money on military things

BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_BASE_PRIORITY_PROPORTION
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_OWNED_REGION_OCCUPIED_FORT_REPAIR
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_OWNED_REGION_OCCUPIED_FORT_UPGRADE
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_OWNED_REGION_UNOCCUPIED_FORT_REPAIR
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_OWNED_REGION_UNOCCUPIED_FORT_UPGRADE
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_PRIORITY_COST_CONTRIBUTION
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_PRIORITY_FORCE_STRENGTH_CONTRIBUTION
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_PRIORITY_REGION_VALUE_CONTRIBUTION
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_UNOWNED_REGION_OCCUPIED_FORT_REPAIR
BASIC_DESIRE_FORT_MAINTAINENCE_UNOWNED_REGION_OCCUPIED_FORT_UPGRADE

These seem relatively pointless. They naturally deal with how the AI places forts, and where they place them. Considering the Siege AI right now, best to leave these alone and hope they build as few forts as possible.

BASIC_DESIRE_PROTECT_PROTECTORATES_VALUE_INDEPENDANT_BASE_PRIORITY

Doesn't seem to be a higher limit. The higher the number the more they want to defend their protectorates

BASIC_DESIRE_WAR_OF_SUCCESSION_RECIND_AFTER_NUMBER_OF_ROUNDS

Also pretty self explanitory

BASIC_DESIRES_BUFFER_ZONE_BEHAVIOUR_BASE_COMPONENT_PROPORTION
BASIC_DESIRES_DEFEND_REGION_GOAL_BASE_COMPONENT_PROPORTION
BASIC_DESIRES_DEFEND_REGION_GROUPS_GOAL_BASE_COMPONENT_PROPORTION
BASIC_DESIRES_REGION_DEVELOPMENT_GOAL_BASE_COMPONENT_PROPORTION

These are a little ambiguous, because I can't figure out what region groups are defined as, or what a region goal is, or how region development is considered. Or what exactly a buffer zone is.

BASIC_INCOME_PROPORTIONAL_SAVINGS_PER_TURN

Pretty self explanitory as well - how much of it's income the AI will save for "financial emergancy" situations (where they spend more than they receive for a period of time)

BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_CONSTRUCTION
BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_CONSTRUCTION_SAVE_MONEY_ON_FAIL
BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_DIPLOMATIC
BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_DIPLOMATIC_SAVE_MONEY_ON_FAIL
BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_RECRUITMENT_ARMY
BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_RECRUITMENT_ARMY_SAVE_MONEY_ON_FAIL
BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_RECRUITMENT_NAVY
BASIC_SPENDING_BIAS_RECRUITMENT_NAVY_SAVE_MONEY_ON_FAIL

Another tool to help control how the AI uses it's cash. The SAVE_MONEY_ON_FAIL I think just tells it to reserve cash if it can't pump things out at the moment

COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_CAN_WIN_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_GROUP_INCREASED_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_GROUP_LOST_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_GROUP_MERGED_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_GROUP_NEW_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_GROUP_REDUCED_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_GROUP_SPLIT_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_INVADED_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_LOSS_CERTAIN_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_LOSS_LIKELY_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_LOSS_VERY_LIKELY_MULTIPLIER
COMPOSITE_VALUE_ANALYSER_REGION_OUTNUMBERS_MULTIPLIER

If we can find out what a region_group is, these'll be nice. I don't know exactly how the numbers work, but this is part of the cost/benefit mechanic for the AI

DEFENCE_AND_INVASION_FORCE_STRENGTH_ANALYSIS_INVASION_FORCE_DISCOUNT_PROPORTION_FOR_ADJUSTED
DEFENCE_AND_INVASION_FORCE_STRENGTH_ANALYSIS_MINIMUM_DEFENCE_FORCE_PROPORTION_FOR_ADJUSTED
DEFENCE_AND_INVASION_FORCE_STRENGTH_ANALYSIS_SUPPORT_FORCE_DISCOUNT_PROPORTION_FOR_ADJUSTED

These numbers determine the proportion of forces used for offense, defense, and utility from what I can tell

DESIRE_BUFFER_ZONE_CLEAR_BUFFER_ZONE_BEHAVIOUR_ABOVE
DESIRE_BUFFER_ZONE_INVOKE_BUFFER_ZONE_BEHAVIOUR_BELOW

If we can figure out what a buffer zone is, and what this number stands for, then we'd be set. My current guess is that it has to do with diplomatic relations

FACTIONAL_NONCACHING_ANALYSER_BADLY_LOSE_MINIMUM_WINNING_FORCE_MULTIPLIER_ARMIES
FACTIONAL_NONCACHING_ANALYSER_EASY_WIN_MINIMUM_WINNING_FORCE_MULTIPLIER_ARMIES

I think this is how the AI decides which factions are easy targets and which arn't

FINANCIAL_ANALYSIS_BEST_CASE_TURN_ON_TURN_OUT_GOINGS_AS_A_PROPORTION_OF_INCOME
FINANCIAL_ANALYSIS_TURNS_TO_ALLOW_OVERSPEND
FINANCIAL_ANALYSIS_WORST_CASE_TURN_ON_TURN_OUT_GOINGS_AS_A_PROPORTION_OF_INCOME

These control financial emergencies. They set a goal for the AI to achieve with it's spending, and how bad it'll let things get before it won't spend any more, and for how long

GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_FACTION
GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_PERSONALITY
GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_REGION
GRANULOID_CONSTRUCTION_BIAS_REGION_GROUP

These values control how much freedom the AI has to adapt it's spending priorities based on the above variables

HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_FOR_ENEMY
HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_FOR_FRIEND
HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_FOR_NEUTRAL
HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_LAND_PATH
HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_SEA_LAND_TRANSITION_PATH
HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_SEA_PATH

As far as I can tell, inverse is better for friend/enemy. So the higher the multiplier is for friends, the more likely the AI is to help you. The higher it is for enemies, the less likely it is that the AI will bother to attack you if you're far away. The other three deal with the logistical side

HLP_MINIMUM_ACCEPTABLE_FIRST_ORDER_FRIENDLINESS_LEVEL_TO_CONSIDER_SPECULATIVE_PATH_ACROSS_TERRITORY

The minimum diplomatic relation necessary for the Ai to consider giving military access

INTENTION_SIEGE_OFFER_SURRENDER_PROBABILITY_ON_OFFERING_SURRENDER_IF_LIKELY_BAD_DEFEAT
INTENTION_SIEGE_OFFER_SURRENDER_PROBABILITY_ON_OFFERING_SURRENDER_IF_LIKELY_DEFEAT

INTENTION_SIEGE_OFFER_SURRENDER_PROBABILITY_ON_OFFERING_SURRENDER_IF_LIKELY_EAST_VICTORY
INTENTION_SIEGE_OFFER_SURRENDER_PROBABILITY_ON_OFFERING_SURRENDER_IF_LIKELY_VICTORY

These I'm pretty sure have to deal with the AI offering YOU a chance to surrender

INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_ARMY_BIAS_FOR_REMOVING_GARRISONS
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_ARMY_DISTANCE_DIVIDING_STRENGTH_WEIGHT
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_ARMY_STRENGTH_MULTIPLIER_FOR_BALANCE_TYPE_BALANCED
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_ARMY_STRENGTH_MULTIPLIER_FOR_BALANCE_TYPE_DEFAULT
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_ARMY_STRENGTH_MULTIPLIER_FOR_BALANCE_TYPE_INVASION
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_ARMY_STRENGTH_MULTIPLIER_FOR_BALANCE_TYPE_RAPID
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_ARMY_STRENGTH_MULTIPLIER_FOR_BALANCE_TYPE_TRADE

These are how the AI determines where it gets it's invasion force, and how large it should be in comparison to the rest of it's army, as far as I can tell

INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_CHARACTER_ONLY_DISTANCE_DIVIDING_SKILL_WEIGHT
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_PROPORTION_OF_RELEVANT_LOCAL_AGENTS_TO_AQUIRE_CEILINGED
INVASION_OBTAINING_LOCAL_MOBILES_PROPORTIONAL_TOTAL_VALUE_OF_OBTAINING_RELEVANT_AGENTS

Having to do with agents, I don't know what dividing by skill weight is. Probably something to do with you need fewer agents in an area if their skill is higher

LOWER_CLASS_MINIMUM_ACCEPTABLE_HAPPINESS

Pretty basic

MAXIMUM_PERCENTAGE_OF_NAVIES_TO_USE_FOR_TRADE

How many trade ships the AI will build as a proportion of it's whole navy

MILITARY_RANK_ADMIRALS_IN_NAVY_MAXIMUM
How many admirals will be in your navy if the AI maxes it out.

These are all guesses, but they're the guesses I've used to put together my AI, which is working pretty well.

MILITARY_RANK_GENERALS_IN_REGION_GROUP_MAXIMUM_PERCENTAGE

MINIMUM_ABSOLUTE_STRENGTH_MULTIPLE_ARMIES
MINIMUM_ABSOLUTE_STRENGTH_MULTIPLE_NAVIES
MINIMUM_BATTLE_RESULT
MINIMUM_CHANCE_OF_SUCCESS
MINIMUM_RELATIVE_STRENGTH

The question with these of course, is rleative strength of what to what?

NAVY_DISTRIBUTION_PRIORITY_GLOBAL
NAVY_DISTRIBUTION_PRIORITY_LOCAL

Whether their navies will be more active in their home theater or the foreign theaters

NAVY_GLOBAL_DISTRIBUTION_THEATRE_VALUE_LOWER_MODIFIER
NAVY_GLOBAL_DISTRIBUTION_THEATRE_VALUE_UPPER_MODIFIER

Not entirely sure, my current guess is that if the theater is of less value than your home theater it will be less likely to deploy there. Or this could deal with trade theaters, helping the AI decide it should go for the high value ones

NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_MOBILE
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_MOBILE_OWNED_BY_ENEMY
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_MOBILE_OWNED_BY_FRIEND
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_MOBILE_OWNED_BY_NEUTRAL
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_MOBILE_OWNED_BY_SELF
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_PORT
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_PORT_OWNED_BY_ENEMY
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_PORT_OWNED_BY_FRIEND
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_PORT_OWNED_BY_NEUTRAL
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_PORT_OWNED_BY_SELF
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_REGION
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_REGION_OWNED_BY_ENEMY
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_REGION_OWNED_BY_FRIEND
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_REGION_OWNED_BY_NEUTRAL
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_REGION_OWNED_BY_SELF
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_TRADE_ROUTE
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_TRADE_ROUTE_OWNED_BY_ENEMY
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_TRADE_ROUTE_OWNED_BY_FRIEND
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_TRADE_ROUTE_OWNED_BY_NEUTRAL
NAVY_LOCAL_DISTRIBUTION_IMPORTANCE_PCT_TRADE_ROUTE_OWNED_BY_SELF

These are pretty self explanatory. They're proportions based off of 1, each type ( trade route, port, etc...) is equal to 1

NAVY_RECRUITMENT_MINIMUM_RELATIVE_STRENGTH
NAVY_RECRUITMENT_MINIMUM_STRENGTH
NAVY_REGION_COAST_DEFENCE_PRIORITY_GENERAL
NAVY_REGION_COAST_DEFENCE_PRIORITY_NEIGHBOURS
NAVY_REGION_COAST_DEFENCE_PRIORITY_PORT
NAVY_REPAIR_FULL_CREW_MINIMUM_PERCENTAGE
NAVY_REPAIR_FULL_HULL_MINIMUM_PERCENTAGE
NAVY_REPAIR_TOTAL_CREW_MINIMUM_PERCENTAGE
NAVY_REPAIR_TOTAL_HULL_MINIMUM_PERCENTAGE
NAVY_TRANSPORT_MAX_PERCENTAGE

These are a bit more ambigous, again because we don't know what it's relative to. The coast defense is pretty self explanatory. I guess the repair part is how important to the AI it is to keep it's ships repaired

PERSONALITY_BASIC_DESIRE_RAID_REGIONS_GOAL_PRIORITY_BASE
PERSONALITY_PROPORTION_OF_DESIRED_STRENGTH_NECESSARY_TO_CONSIDER_RAIDING
PERSONALITY_SHOULD_ATTEMPT_TO_CAPTURE_REGION_DURING_RAID

These control the raiding behavior (the one or two unit stacks that run through your provinces, as far as I can tell the higher the number the more likely the behavior is, or how powerful it needs to be to consider it. Havn't found an upper limit IIRC

PERSONALITY_VALUE_BASIC_DESIRE_RECAPTURE_REGIONS_BASE_PRIORITY
PERSONALITY_VALUE_BASIC_GOAL_RECAPTURE_REGIONS_TIMEOUT

Pretty self explanatory. The higher the number, the more or longer the AI wants to retake territory it's lost

POP_GROWTH_MINIMUM_ACCEPTABLE_AS_PROPORTION_OF_POP

How much population growth the AI wants, the problem being of course that we can't devalue this after it's maxed out it's towns

PRIORITY_RANDOMIZATION_DESIRE
PRIORITY_RANDOMIZATION_INTENTION

Just mixes things up a bit, the higher the value, the more random the AI will be

RECRUITMENT_ARMY_CATEGORY_BALANCE_DISTANCE
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_ARTILLERY
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_CAVALRY
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_DRAGOONS
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_ELEPHANTS
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_INFANTRY

What the AI considers to be a balanced force. The top value I think is how far away the AI is willing to let recruited units come from to achieve this force. havn't tested yet to see if higher or lower is equal to further, my gut inclination is higher, right now

RECRUITMENT_ARMY_COST_OVER_STRENGTH_ADDITIONAL_UNIT_EXEPERIENCE_BONUS

no idea

RECRUITMENT_ARMY_NUMBER_OF_TURNS_TO_FINANCE_EMERGENCY
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_OVERSTRENGTH_UNITS_TO_OFFSET_DEFICIT
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_POSSIBLE_ADDITIONAL_UNITS_PER_REGION_HIGH
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_POSSIBLE_ADDITIONAL_UNITS_PER_REGION_VERY_HIGH
RECRUITMENT_ARMY_STRENGTH_OF_PERSONALITY_BIAS

The first value is how long the AI will play with it's income in the red, second value I have no idea, third and forth values tell the AI how many extra units above a full stack ( I think ) are permitable per reagion based on difficulty, last value is how much recruitment is based off of the "personality of a nation" (IE Crimean Khanate will recruit more cavalry

RECRUITMENT_FINANCIAL_BIAS_EMERGENCY_SITUATION_ONLY
RECRUITMENT_FINANCIAL_BIAS_MAINTAINABLE_ONLY
RECRUITMENT_FINANCIAL_BIAS_RECRUITMENT_ONLY

How the Ai weights recruiments costs versus upkeep costs for deciding whether to keep recruiting.

RECRUITMENT_MINIMUM_NEW_ARMY_SIZE
RECRUITMENT_MINIMUM_NEW_NAVY_SIZE

the minimum stack size the AI will shoot for when it starts recruiting

RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BALANCE_DISTANCE
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_AUXILIARY
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_FRIGATE
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_GALLEY
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_INVASION_FLEET
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_LINE_OF_BATTLE
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_MERCHANT
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_CATEGORY_BASE_PROPORTIONS_SPECIALIST

Same deal as the army thing above. And before you ask, increasing invasion_fleet does not give you naval invasions.

RECRUITMENT_NAVY_COST_OVER_STRENGTH_ADDITIONAL_UNIT_EXEPERIENCE_BONUS

still have no idea

RECRUITMENT_NAVY_MIN_AMOUNT_OF_MOBILES_TRADE_ORIENTED
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_MIN_AMOUNT_OF_UNITS_TRADE_ORIENTED

The jist is self explanatory, but what it actually does is a bit ambiguous, because why would you want mobile trade oriented ships?

RECRUITMENT_NAVY_NUMBER_OF_TURNS_TO_FINANCE_EMERGENCY

same as army

RECRUITMENT_NAVY_OVERSTRENGTH_UNITS_TO_OFFSET_DEFICIT
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_POSSIBLE_ADDITIONAL_UNITS_PER_REGION_HIGH
RECRUITMENT_NAVY_POSSIBLE_ADDITIONAL_UNITS_PER_REGION_VERY_HIGH

same as army

Don't have time for much more, the last ones are pretty easy to understand.

HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_SEA_LAND_TRANSITION_PATH
HLP_DISTANCE_MULTIPLIER_SEA_PATH

Could these solve the naval invasion bug? Would they be our best guess?

**Cursisanafou** · April 13, 2009, 01:21 PM

REGION_DEFENSE_PRIORITIES_BORDERS - higher the value the more the ai will put troops near the borders. (kind of obvious)

REGION_DEFENSE_PRIORITIES_GROUPING - higher value means the priority is higher for grouping. If you have a problem with the AI creating a bajillion 1 unit armies increase this value. I just went from having a slow ass campaign map to about 10x faster by changing this. Poland had about 10 1 unit armies sorrounding a settlement.. i saved the game, increased this to 1 and it put all its armies in the settlement.

REGION_DEFENSE_PRIORITIES_RESERVES - EDIT: still have no idea what it does, possibly nothing. how i test is basically setting them all to 0 except one.. and when i did this for this one is gave me a CTD, so i don't know if it even works.

REGION_DEFENSE_PRIORITIES_SETTLEMENT - pretty obvious, priority is the region capital

REGION_DEFENSE_PRIORITIES_SLOT - pretty obvious, higher value means more protection of slots, so the AI will move their troops into the slots. or at least near them.

REGION_DEFENSE_PRIORITIES_UNHAPPINESS_MITIGATION - also quite obvious... will use its troops to get the most happiness.

I mainly bumped the thread for the groupings priority which has basically had the biggest effect on any change i've made to date on the AI. it literally took 90% of its armies and made them into stacks of 10+ units... not only increasing the speed of campaign maps and turns, but also not making themselves look retarded.

**Rammstein** · May 03, 2009, 07:05 PM

which value would increase the probability of invasion?

You could try playing with those, although Jack mentioned the values that controlled their likelyhood to be locked up in startpos.esf
