Adjust Ratio of FMs to Cities

**CeeJ** · August 23, 2015, 08:56 AM

Is it possible to edit the ratio of FMs to Cities somewhere in the game files? I would kill for a 1.1:1 ratio (I like having governors in all my cities and one or two generals who I breed specifically for the task and spend their entire life campaigning).

I've edited files a couple times before but only when following specific instructions (ie. unlocking factions), I really don't understand what I'm doing when I don't have some sort of guide to follow so if anyone could give me a hand with this it would be amazing.

Are you referring to the frequency FMs appear for factions using the Teutonic system?

With some factions, I always have more FM's than cities.

As far as I know there is no way. Other than making recruitable generals units which is dangerous for ctd's.

You can adjust fertility to allow for more than 4 natural children per one FM (in descr_campaign_db.xml). But that'll break the family interface or crash or something (can't remember really what the downside was).

Delra is it possible to just make it guaranteed 4 children per each fm? Like editing the Fertility traits or something.

So recruitable generals will be not possible unless a breakthrough happens? It's strange to have the brother or the neice of the king governing at a territory where you just build an allied government.
