Editing merchant limit for specific faction

[Jaxal]

Hello

Im trying to edit the merchant level imposed on demark. What change do i make in the below code to do that?

        market city requires factions { northern_european, middle_eastern, eastern_european, greek, southern_european, } 
        {
            capability
            {
                agent merchant  0  requires factions { northern_european, } 
                agent merchant  0  requires factions { middle_eastern, } 
                agent merchant  0  requires factions { eastern_european, } 
                agent merchant  0  requires factions { greek, } 
                agent merchant  0  requires factions { southern_european, } 
                trade_base_income_bonus bonus 3
                agent_limit merchant 1
            }
            material wooden
            construction  3 
            cost  1200 
            settlement_min large_town
            upgrades
            {
                fairground
            }
        }

agent_limit merchant 1

If i do that, wont the limit change for everyone else who has that building? When i add something like this:

agent_limit merchant 10 { middle_eastern, }

The game crashes to desktop at start up. What am i doing wrong?

Changing agent_limit would change merchant recruitment for all factions, unless I'm mistaken. I think you'd have to create a separate market building type, in which only denmark merchants are recruited, and give that one a higher limit...

try something like;

agent_limit merchant 2 requires not factions { denmark, }
agent_limit merchant 1 requires factions { denmark, }

This should allow all other factions to recruit 2 merchants and only denmark to recruit 1 merchant. Ive never used faction requirements on the agent_limit capability...

Alternatively, you could have the following script in campaign_script

moniter_event FactionTurnStart FactionType denmark
set_event_counter Danish_Merchants 1
end_monitor
moniter_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType denmark
set_event_counter Danish_Merchants 0
end_monitor

Then use the event counter in the EDB as such;

agent_limit merchant 2 requires event_counter Danish_Merchants 0
agent_limit merchant 1 requires event_counter Danish_Merchants 1

Nice Tsarsies, that should work.
