[Overlord.ru]

Let the testing begin!

[stevietheconquer]

i hope this will work, the only thing a cannot solve is the NORWAY BODYGUARDS, they ctd before the battle probely a error entry in battle_models(MODELDB file), only looking at that file makes mine mind goes dizzy

[Overlord.ru]

Zuma, do you have any idea how to get rid of Offends the Nobility and Inspires Civil War traits, because I just can't get a clue how to stop them if my King gets those. I was attacked by 2 factions(not I myself attacked!) And he got offends the nobility trait. I managed to ceasefire with both factions but that didn't help, I put him in the capital but it didn't help either and in some turns he got inspiring civil war though taxes in all settlements were not higher than normal and I didn't fight a single faction...

[stevietheconquer]

, found a error in the campaign script,this is the fixed one,sorry for this hope its now good,but still gotta test it, its not savecompatible

[Overlord.ru]

I hope that was an error causing the civil war not going away?:p

[stevietheconquer]

nope,but i think civil_war will less about 14 turns and will end then.

[stevietheconquer]

just a small correction in campaign script, teutonic order will now spawn at the wright place

[Overlord.ru]

[stevietheconquer]

you can see ,the last add_events the computer do in the ai turn , is add_events at line 976,when i look at that line 976, its at MONEY SCRIPT LAST STAND, and its given too lithuania,but when i toggle_fow,i see that lithuania got 6 settlements,and normally the money script last stand is only for a faction that got < 2 ,so thats why the crash comes computer gives money for faction with 6 settlements when its too much it only schould have < 2 settlements,dont know why it does this.just bad luck?or your files our mixed up?maybe Master Zuma knows this?

Some minor bugs Screens 1,2. Second screen - ships spawn in small water spaces all around the world.

The Civil War
It's mechanics is completely broken\doesn't work normally. I've started about 15 campaigns as HRE and the situation is always the same: at about turn 6-10 the king becomes Offending the Nobility trait for no reason(the taxes are normal\low everywhere,not fighting any faction,not a single noble has been stripped of a title), then (for no reason again) the king Inspires Civil War. I Put him in a capital, he has been crowned before, build Royal Chambers but the generals still continue disobeying. My last campaign I've managed to put all who disobey in a capital where also my king was,but still in some turns the Civil War began.

There's no option how to avoid\stop\get rid of Civil War.
The same system is in DLV mod,but there are certain actions\buildings which help to get rid of it.

So all my disobeying nobles were in the capital with the king, right away they became rebels one after another. BUT the only effect is that they can't move...So they're willing to kill the king and to take power in their hands...but at the same time their together with him in a capital, so ... why don't they do it? Rebel nobles don't become grey(as vanilla), they simply sit on their ass till the death takes them...really buggy mechanics. The war lasted about 30 turns(though my kings attributes were at maximum) until my King died but all rebel nobles still were...rebels! So they wouldn't move or become loyal until they die. + they recieve contradictory traits like King's right Hand and Dutiful even after they already became rebels. And btw when the heir succeded to the throne, he still got Heir Apparent trait.

Strange that you tsay hat my log is not log from that saved game...I save the game,end turn, get a ctd while AI is making turns,and right after that I upload logs and the save. Anyway, I hope Zuma will read this thread and find a clue...

[stevietheconquer]

, Overlord i think i found the error in your latest save,its again the king of denmark,he will always be remember by me, i think i fixed it, here the new campaign script ready too be tested, by me or someone else lol.Master Zuma do you know why DENMARK is not listed in the AI-FACTION LEADER DEATH MESSAGES?, because when i put them there ut causes a crash, now i removed them and i hope this will fix the error.
ITS NOT SAVECOMPATIBLE
