faction_relationships

[Steven the conqueror]

well, I add this new faction, kingdom of wales, actually it works perfectly exept for one thing

the first time I see it just make and army and stay building up his cities, and didnt attack rebel settlements, so I went to descr_strat to see if it has some kind of passive AI but no, so, I open the diplomacy scroll and see that wales wasnt at war with the rebels so I went to faction_relationships part in descr_strat and put that wales to be at war with slave and viseversa, but when I open the game, intead of wales being in war with the rebels, all the factions have turned neutral to the rebel, so I set it how it was orginally, so the only posibility for wales to expand is to someone attack them

what was wrong??? how do I fix it??

PD: curiosly as england I gift them a settlement and they began taking rebel settlements

At the bottom of the descr_strat.txt is where the good stuff like war with rebels is located.

Most importantly remember: at_war_with matches with both factions. 0.00 = nuteral 0.90 is max friendly -0.90 is max negative. Remember the minus '-'.

I believe it is not necessary to enter at_war with (relationship) for both sides. It is definitely necessary for the standings to enter it for both factions.

What ai have you given Wales in descr_strat?

[Steven the conqueror]

may I quote myself

........so I went to faction_relationships (AKA: bottom of descr_strat) part in descr_strat and put that wales to be at war with slave (rebels) and viseversa, but when I open the game, intead of wales being in war with the rebels, all the factions have turned neutral to the rebel, so I set it how it was orginally, so the only posibility for wales to expand is to someone attack them

I already change the standings, but intead of wales being in war with the rebels, all the factions have turned neutral to the rebels

There is a possibility that you have an error in the descr_stat file. That will terminate the reading of the file and everything after that point will revert to default - settlements will have only 400 inhabitants with no infrastructure and belonging to the rebel faction, all factions are neutral to each other.

Check your log for errors relating to the descr_strat file.
