Changing levels of settlements

[stefan1921]

In order to change the level of a settlement, where do I go? For instance, I want to change Dragonstone from a Fortress to a Citadel and Moat Calin into a Fortress, which export_descr_... thing do I got to to change it? I'm not just talking about the descr_strat, i would like to change it on the map as well.

The only way to change the level of a settlement is through descr_strat...What do you mean by "change it on the map as well"?

[Korpskog]

Try changing "City" to "large_city" or "huge_city" in descr_strat.txt which you find in data/world/imperial_campagin. Maybe there is some way to change the core_castle_building as well, i don't know...

settlement castle
{
level city
region Dragonstone_Province

year_founded 0
population 5000
plan_set default_set
faction_creator denmark
building
{
type core_castle_building fortress

}

[Mhaedros]

Yes, you have to change

type core_castle_building fortress

to

type core_castle_building citadel

Otherwise you'll get a CTD iirc

thanks for replying i guess, but

I'm not just talking about the descr_strat, i would like to change it on the map as well.

Changine it on descr_strat doesn't make it show up as a citadel on the map. I would actually like it to become a citadel when playing the game, (like it looks like storms end/highgarden/harrenhal) for dragonstone and moat calin a fortress like the dread fort or casterly rock

[Mhaedros]

That's exactly what it does when changing it in descr_strat. All in all it should look like this

settlement castle
{
level city try both large_city and huge_city here, I'm not sure which is right
region Dragonstone_Province

year_founded 0
population 5000
plan_set default_set
faction_creator denmark
building
{
type core_castle_building fortress change to citadel. in all other files the citadel is called fortress though and the fortress is large_castle or similar 

}
