How to code Protectorate

[HiiMmyself]

Hey,

What is the number value for making a faction a protectorate over another in faction_relations part of the descr_strat? Or do you have to do it through a script?

Thanks,

There's no way to do that actually.

You could put a diplomat near the faction you want to be protectorate of , and then try force diplomacy .. Then you could kill off your diplomat with a script or with the console panel , so that you start with everything as normal , from the first turn

[HiiMmyself]

how do you force diplomacy?

[Killerbee]

Err .. That's with a script .. this is for Eb , but i don't know if it works for Vanilla :

Hehe, in theory, perhaps. But has anyone actually gotten that to work?

Hmm .. Maybe it would work , but they'd break it the following turn But still , technically , it should work 1 turn
