Redesigned Patriarchs for Orthodox factions

[Byzantineboy]

I know there is already a tuto -> http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...8#post12296958
But it doesn't work, I dont know why..

I have an other question:
I my mod, i have created 4 patriarchates (Jerusalem, Antioch, Constantinople, Alexandria);
Is that possible to add one patriarch for the faction who own the patriarchate?

[Durok97]

For your second question,i do not think you can add the patriarchs of Alexandria,Antioch and Jerusalem because Alexandria is under muslim control and Jerusalem and Antioch is (for Stainless Steel) under catholic control.

I have pieced together some things to get a working Patriarch, here is what I have.

In export_descr_character_traits.txt, I added a third level for "Trait PriestLevel"

Level Patriarch
Description Patriarch_desc
EffectsDescription Patriarch_effects_desc
GainMessage Patriarch_gain_desc
Threshold 3

Effect Piety 2
Effect Level 3
Effect HeresyImmunity 1

and a trigger

;------------------------------------------
Trigger priest_patriarch_o
WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd

Condition AgentType = priest
and Attribute Piety > 5
and I_EventCounter Patriarch = 0
and Trait PriestLevel = 0
and FactionReligion orthodox

Affects PriestLevel 3 Chance 100


In descr_character.txt I added a fourth model for each Orthodox faction

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

faction			byzantium
dictionary		2
strat_model		orthodox_priest						; default model
strat_model		orthodox_bishop						; medium level priest
strat_model		orthodox_bishop						; placeholder
strat_model		orthodox_patriarch					; advanced priest

faction			russia
dictionary		2
strat_model		orthodox_priest						; default model
strat_model		orthodox_bishop						; medium level priest
strat_model		orthodox_bishop						; placeholder
strat_model		orthodox_patriarch					; advanced priest

In the expanded.txt/text folder I added the following to Orthodox religions

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

{EMT_BYZANTIUM_PRIEST}Byzantine Priest
{EMT_BYZANTIUM_PRIEST_1}Byzantine Bishop
{EMT_BYZANTIUM_PRIEST_2}WILL NOT SEE THIS
{EMT_BYZANTIUM_PRIEST_3}Byzantine Patriarch

{EMT_EASTERN_EUROPEAN_PRIEST}Priest
{EMT_EASTERN_EUROPEAN_PRIEST_1}Bishop
{EMT_EASTERN_EUROPEAN_PRIEST_2}Cardinal
{EMT_EASTERN_EUROPEAN_PRIEST_3}Patriarch

{EMT_GREEK_PRIEST}Priest
{EMT_GREEK_PRIEST_1}Bishop
{EMT_GREEK_PRIEST_2}WILL NOT SEE THIS
{EMT_GREEK_PRIEST_3}Patriarch

{EMT_RUSSIA_PRIEST}Russian Priest
{EMT_RUSSIA_PRIEST_1}Russian Bishop
{EMT_RUSSIA_PRIEST_2}WILL NOT SEE THIS
{EMT_RUSSIA_PRIEST_3}Russian Patriarch

In the export_vnvs.txt/text folder I added-

{Patriarch}Patriarch
{Patriarch_desc}This man has become the patriarch of the Orthodox church.
{Patriarch_effects_desc}+3 Piety
{Patriarch_gain_desc}This priest has been elevated to the title of Patriarch within your church. May he be a true spiritual guide to you and your people.

For the campaign_script.txt I used this-

;------------------- PATRIARCH -------------------;

I can tell you that it works, I recently added this to my own mod and started a new campaign. By turn 30 the Russians had the Patriarch.

As for your 2nd question I'm not sure as to what you are asking. Did you make a building in each of these towns and want a Patriarch spawned due to someone controlling the town? Need more information please.

Thanks, Vegas. Just one more thing I was looking for.

Thanks you all

For exemple,
I play byzantium, I have my Ecumenical Patriarch (Level3), is that possible to script something like one more patriarch (but priest Level 2, other minor patriarch, like Antioch, Jerusalem) for each patriarchate under orthodox rule?

Because, i created a submmod for BC; my goal was to make something realy near to history:
Religious communities don't disapear in two years. So i create some patriarchate buildings, with a little "conversion" rate (in the occupied provinces) in order to represent the eastern christians (coptic in Egypt, Syriacs in Syria etc... and then muslims can tax this population and have more incomes pro-rata their proportion. (conversion rate have a limit; for exemple, synagogue conversion rate is disabled when 15% jews is reached)


Then I could make the same thing for KOJ, Armenia etc... Every faction who owns a patriarchate can generate one more new patriarch.

[Vegas_Bear]

The above example takes into account all the Orthodox factions and only gives one Patriarch. It could be changed to have a Patriarch for each Orthodox faction. If that is what you are asking about. You would just need to edit the trigger and make one for each faction. For the campaign script, just make a copy of the above script for each faction. Make sure that the event_counter for each faction matches up. If you need help doing this let me know.

You need to expand the triggers because you have the orthodox bishop (priest created in a cathedral or bigger) fix in your traits - that would be then priest level 1. Entry in vanilla EDCT:

Trigger priestinit4_orthodox
    WhenToTest AgentCreated

    Condition AgentType = priest
          and SettlementBuildingExists >= cathedral_o
          and Trait PriestLevel = 0

    Affects PriestLevel  1  Chance  100
