Map of Troublesome regions

**2Saz** · May 09, 2017, 06:38 AM

This thread is for people who, like me, were not completely aware of the "Troublesome Regions script". The following informations come from the campaign_script.txt located in data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign (line 12574 to 12935).

The idea of this script is to represent the renowned instability of several regions by "randomly generating additional Rebel presence". In-game, it means that every winter there are 5% chance that a Rebel army (8 units) spawns in the region accompanied by an important rise of the unrest (between 10 and 20) in the settlement.

Note from QuintusSertorius : the presence of the Rebel stack in the province will add unrest as well as the scripted addition, based on the size of the stack and how long they've been active in the province.

Also note that the presence of the Rebel stack in the province will add unrest as well as the scripted addition. I think that's a variable amount based on the size of the stack and how long they've been active in the province.

Thanks! Added to the OP.

Galatia has it's own independence script which is quite similar to what these troublesome regions have.

Which factions does this apply to, though? If a troublesome settlement is owned by a faction from the start, does it still have to deal with it being troublesome? Will an area ever stop being troublesome during a game?

It's universal (ie all factions), doesn't matter who owns it, never stops. These were restive places famously riven by various sorts of strife that never really went away.

It's part of stirring things up and making them less predictable. 5% chance every winter isn't big, but it's enough that you can't ignore it.
