{DIK} Discussion

[Mausolos of Caria]

That's good news about Genoa, I'll play some DIK this weekend

You are of course right about the condottiere script. If I'd attack another faction at the same time and conquer their settlement, it would also go do the faction that hired me, and that really wouldn't make a lot of sense!

[Aneirin]

Hope you enjoyed your weekend!

I also thought about bringing the character's trait into account for the calculation of the 'kind' of negotiated condotta.
A more advanced character would receive more likely a favorable condotta, than one less advanced.
But that would have took ages to script, so I really chose the easy way here

[Mausolos of Caria]

I can't fault you there

Oh yes I did I finally started a campaign with the Reich and shamefully allowed the rebellious peasants to take a Swabian settlement For some reason, I don't trust the Swabians and I thought it'd be good if they'll be occupied with fighting peasants. I think I played a campaign where the Swabian League betrayed the Emperor and started a full scale invasion of Austria and I'm not keen on that to happen. So far, I've really struggled to maximise income, and Brigands seem to pop up everywhere. Do they actually stop spawning after you've built a watch tower in that area? Because I'm building loads of them to be able to see ANYTHING.
Pressburg was taken, the condottiere who offered his services to fight against the peasants defeated (after I had rejected him and he had turned angry), but I feel a bit at unease with my possessions around Besancon. So far in my campaigns France hasn't done much, but I'm sure now that I'm their likely enemy and have poorly defended lands near them, that will kick them into action. I'll keep you updated!

[Aneirin]

Sounds like you have quite some fun!
As I recall there is a bug at turn 63 for the HRE, in case it occurs to you as well, please let me know and provide me the log.txt, please!

So far, it seems you fight at every front possible? I hope you at least tried to stay at peace with Venice and the Hungarians?

I did keep amiable relations with Venice and Hungary, and joined the Anti-French League

To the bug: I didn't even make it to turn 63, it crashes at turn 15, at the end of the turn of the Swabian League. To find out if it's a general issue, I started a new campaign with Spain, and the same bug occured, at the end of turn 11, "Medieval II wurde unerwartet beendet" or something like that.
I'll provide you the log.txt file if you tell me what I have to do Sorry, I've actually never done it before!

Ugh, MTW II might be completely because I installed Windows 10, Broken Crescent also crashes At different points though, only one crash repeats itself like in DIK, where it has not happened anywhere else yet.

Sure, just trigger the bug once more and then go to your medieval II folder and look for a folder named 'log'. Inside you find a .txt file. Send me that file and I'll have a look at it.

Did you already update the installer?

[Aneirin]

Did you already update the installer?

I haven’t had the chance yet. I still work on the events for the minor factions. That done, there will be testings and then a release.

No worries - we're all just very much looking forward to the update. Thank you again for your time and effort!!!

[Mausolos of Caria]

The file was too large to upload it on here, so I send it to you on a different channel. Thanks!

[Aneirin]

Cheers mate, I'll look into it straight away.

[Aneirin]

Okay guys to give you a brief update, that's what I have done so far:

- added events for Bologna: Tasse degli Ebrei, A fine hat for the son, A brittle balance, Cesare Borgia, This will be my ruin, A meeting at Magione, A divine rule
- added events for Ferrara: A brittle balance, An Aesthetes' War, A Lady's demur, Love of your brothers, La Giulia, Excommunicated, A cannon-proof deal, A costly secretary
- added events for Mantua: A brittle balance, The love of brothers, Attempted murder, Disastrous siege, A relief for the Lady, The Emperor's true servant
- added events for Urbino: Cesare Borgia, A meeting at Magione
- added events for Siena: A meeting at Magione,
- added events for Papal States: A meeting at Magione, A divine rule
- added events for Genoa: Banco di San Giorgio, Instigated Exiles, A call for freedom, Just another attempt, For the People, Restore our glory
- added events for Hafsids: Slaves captured (see sea raid script for Hafsids), Siege of Tunis
- added traits for Bologna: Member of the Società d'arti (Notai - lawyers, Cambiatori - Bankers, Drappieri - Cloth Merchants)
- added the Condotta-Script for Manuta, Ferrara, Montferrat, Bologna and Urbino
- adjusted the descr_campaign_db.xml, so the Borgia Pope and several other characters don't die immediately
- map changes: added ford from Incesia to Saluzzo, added two mountain passages to the Ligurian Coast near Mondovi, added a mountain passage from Saluzzo to Susa, added a ford between Bari and Salerno, added a mountain passage from Urbino to Camerino, added the Island of Tabarka, adjusted the province border of Turin so the armies don't have to cross Milanese territory any more, also added a fort to province of Turin
- added Ippolito d'Este and Ferrante d'Este to Ferrara as cardinal and general
- added Recruitment Limitation by Gigantus, base idea by DLV, Neadal
- transferred ownership of Qusantina from Slave to Hafsids
- transferred ownership of Annaba from Turks to Slave
- changed relations between Spain and Hafsids from hostile to allied
- added siege events for all playable factions
- added sea raid events for all playable factions


So I've added several events for the minor factions, but also adjusted the starting position of the Hafsids, as well as, the diplomatics with Spain and the Turks.
As for that, things missing are:

- Events Savoy
- Events Montferrat
- Events Urbino
- Events Siena

When these events are implemented the testing phase can start, means I'll probably need some beta players

Best
Aneirin


P.S. In case anybody has more event ideas on the Hafsids, feel free. Haven't found really much about them.

Thank you guys for your ongoing support! I'll keep you posted

[Lusitanio]

Aneirin how did you add the maritime events and siege events? Any different then my original script? Tell me if you had more ideas on how to use them x)

[Der Böse Wolf]

Only thing I have altered was to include the slave faction in the script. To represent the always present thread of piracy during that time.
