Making the Mongols and the Timurids appear near Yerevan

[ramzito]

Hello everyone,

I am currently using the KGCM v.3.0. As you may know, the mongols (I don't know about the timurids) always appear in the northeastern part of the map.

As I am playing with Byzantium and need some extra challenge, I was wondering if I could make them appear closer to me, near Yerevan for example.

Some people suggested me changing the script in the following file:

C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\kingdoms_grand_campaign_mod\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\campaign_script.txt

More specifically, they told me to change the coordinates of the Mongolian and Timurid hordes to something closer to Yerevan.

Is this the way to go? Do I need to change the coordinates of every family member out there? Any other line that needs modifications?

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Where they come in on north of the Caspian Sea is the Mongols invasion route.

If you to move them south, use the console command show_cursorstat to get your map coordinates and edit the campaign_script.txt accordingly.

Thanks for the answer!

But which lines do I change exactly? Do I have to change the coordinates of the faction leader, faction heir and every family member? If yes, do I put the same numbers or do I slightly change them so that they won't overlap?

What about these lines?

Look farther down in the spawned armies. What you are looking for are the x, y numbers of the leaders of those armies.

Great it worked! Thanks!
