city castle upgrades

[dajarvi]

Is it possible to edit city castle upgrades so that I can upgrade a small or large city to a castle or fortress?

Yes i think u can through the export_descr_buildings.txt aka EDB.

That almost helps. It's quite a big script. Touchy too.

If u are not familiar with modding i would say don't touch it or atleast read the EDB guide first.

But anyways u are looking for something similar to this:-

        }

            settlement_min city
            upgrades
            {
                fortress_to_city
            }

}

Good Luck and make sure u make the backup of the file before u fiddle with it.

So far I've tried and failed. Could you give me a demonstration how I could convert a small city to a fortress and a large city to a citadel?

[dajarvi]

I've tried all sorts of things. It doesn't work. Does anybody know if it's even possible?
