# AI Improvements
###################
- Told the AI that provinces with more holdings, slots, and buildings are better,
and it should try to keep those for itself when handing out titles
- Fixed the AI loving viceroyalties so much it'd try to give duchies out as
viceroyalties even when not allowed to do so due to being a vassal, and then
destroying the duchy in a fit of rage when it realized it wasn't allowed to do so
- Told the AI that if it considers a province to be a high priority target, it
should probably also consider it to be a possible target, rather than deciding to
not go there just because it is slightly too far away
- Told the AI that it isn't a good idea to grant a title to someone you just
revoked a title off of, even if it is a duchy where you hold no land yourself, and
that it might be a good idea to hold onto the duchy you just revoked for a little
while before giving it away

###################
# AI Improvements
###################
- Fixed one way AI characters that should have AI could end up with no AI
- The AI now actually considers the idea of sending its army to a province if its
friends are there or adjacent, even if the province is otherwise a bit boring
- The AI now actually realizes that friendly armies standing near a potential
target is a good thing even if it doesn't personally own those armies
- Once the AI gets to its allies it won't decide that if it can't attach due to
supply, it is better for everyone if it just packs its bags and goes home. Instead
it will now try to stick close
- The AI is now vaguely aware of the existence of tribal vassals when evaluating
whether a faction has a real chance of succeeding
- The AI now checks to see exactly how many liege levies it'll deny its liege by
revolting, rather than going "eh, half my levies I guess?"
- The AI now takes tribal vassals into account in most decisions where it considers
how strong a potential enemy or ally is, rather than simply pretending they don't
exist
- Fixed aggression from ambitions having 20 times as big an effect as intended
- AI will now also call allies to arms if the estimated answer is a "maybe," to
force them into making a decision.
- Raiding adventurers now realize once they've been settled that maybe, just maybe,
they should consider their new realm their base of army operations, and return
armies there when they're not up to anything
- AI: Should be snappier to evalute settlement decisions when needed
- If defensive pacts are disabled, the AI will no longer think no one could
possibly be a threat to it
- AI: Made the Pope less reluctant to accept requests for excommunication
- AI (Conclave): Will never pick Heritage or Faith Focuses for children of the
right culture and religion
- Tributaries are now always aware that their tributary relationship benefits their
suzerain more than them, and that they could potentially break free
- The AI no longer gets increasingly reckless the more "rational" it is; being
enlightened by your intelligence turns out not to make your troops any better
- The army AI no longer thinks that just because two destinations are pretty much
equally good, it should switch back and forth between the two and thus never get
anywhere
- The army AI now understands that if it has bothered to start a siege, maybe there
was a good reason to do so, so we shouldn't just run off right after just because
another destination looks very slightly better
- Taught the AI that more loot means a province is a better target for looting
- The army looter AI now actually realizes that if all the loot in a province is
protected by holdings and the army isn't big enough to siege them, it isn't
actually a good loot target
- The AI now considers any strong realm nearby a potential threat
- Taught vassals how to send alliance offers to other vassals
- Informed the AI that we changed how decadence works years ago and it shouldn't
give titles to its family members just for the hell of it
- Told the AI that if it is the attacker in a war, it *might* be a good idea to
actually go attack the defender even if you're targeting their whole realm rather
than a specific title within it, and it is a bit of a long walk
- The AI has learned how to spell, and no longer look for "soceities" missions when
they're actually called "societies" missions. With this newfound ability to spell,
the AI is better at identifying mission targets
- Taught nomads that if they rise in revolt in response to an attempt to split
their clan, maybe they should accept it next time rather than rise again and again
- The AI is no longer deathly afraid of going overseas to help its allies just
because the enemy is a bit far away
- The AI no longer thinks that just because a province is *someone*'s capital, it's
a good target; it is now more discerning and only cares if it is the capital of an
enemy
- The AI is now a bit more aware of just how superior heavy cavalry is to light
infantry
- The AI now no longer thinks that enemy armies adjacent to other enemy armies are
just on vacation, and won't help out if it were to attack
- Gave the AI a crash course in how to hand out titles
- Gave the AI a crash course in how to transfer vassals in a way that won't make
you want to claw your eyes out
- The AI now realizes that just because it has occupied everything it borders, it
shouldn't skip out on occupying the non-bordering stuff
- Taught the AI a few things about how supply works, and why a doomstack isn't
always the best way to deal with it while travelling to its destination. The AI is
hard of hearing, so it only partially understood this lesson, but partial
understanding beats no understanding, right?
- Taught the Pope Geography 101, with an emphasis on what "distance from
Catholicism" and "size of kingdom" means in the context of Crusades, and why this
means that invading India when Egypt is right there might be a bad idea
- Informed the AI that just because their ideal commander can't lead troops right
now, doesn't mean they should just skip assigning a commander to the flank they
wanted to assign that commander to
- The AI now realizes that once it is landed, it should base its army in its
capital rather than have it stand in the middle of nowhere, taking attrition, just
because it happened to spawn in the middle of nowhere many years ago
- Bethrothed men no longer go "nah, can't fulfill this betrothal" after sending a
marriage offer which you accidentally reject. They will also no longer decide to
not bother to resend the offer while mumbling "let's see how *they* like being
ignored"
- Told just-spawned raiding adventurers "hey, your fleet is right over there" so
that they wouldn't disband instantly when spawning on an island with no good raid
targets, due to thinking that getting across the sea is simply impossible
- Members of small reformed religions are now a bit more fond of joining Great Holy
Wars and the like
- The AI has finally come to the realization that it is allowed to invite its own
vassals and courtiers to plots, not just the vassals and courtiers of the target

triggers for building each holding type

holdings
- on_heresy_takeover no longer creates a dummy character for the religion scope,
but instead uses an actual religion scope

dies while holding the job/minor title

- Uploading mods to Steam is no longer limited to 50MB
- Added the following targeted decision filters: court_including_me,
home_court_including_me, dynasty_including_me, all_including_me,

- What icon to use for the diplomatic relation

CBs and the like are still limited by DLC; this means you can now make your own
tributary systems even without your mod's users having HL

specific suzerain
- You can now use custom loc in the is_tributary trigger

none is specified, "default" is used
- Added set_trade_route_base_value and set_trade_route_value_multiplier effects
- Provinces with several trade routes will now show the presence and effect of all
of them in their tooltip
- Effect and trigger scope changes now have an optional "show_scope_change"
parameter. If set to "no", the scope change won't be shown in the tooltip. It'll be
shown as just "effect description" rather than "scope change: effect description".
This functionality isn't supported by any/random scopes.
- Added hostages_block_cb parameter for CBs
- Variables that haven't been set yet now work in localisation; they'll show "0"
rather than simply being blank. "GetName" works as well. So [global_test.GetName]

and not ending with a linebreak

vassalize_or_take_under_title, subjugate_or_take_under_title, and
vassalize_or_take_under_title_destroy_duchies. This ensures that land occupied by
people in that character's war against the title's holder can be taken

the Indian group. This is done using the "castes" parameter

of their death when going backwards in history

"print_global_variables" (aka "print_global_vars" and "pgv"). They print whatever
they're named after

character to display debug info
- The Offmap Powers view will now display flags and variables that are set for
offmap powers, including those of the title holders
- Added "attrition" character modifier. This will reduce/increase the attrition
suffered by the army they command. It is capped at -99%

character commands reinforce faster. Affects retinues and horde units as well, not
just levies. Does not affect the reinforcement of the settlement itself. Cannot go
below 0
- Added "days_of_supply" character modifier. This modifies the number of days of
supply of the army the character commands by an absolute number of days. Days of
supply cannot go below 1
- Added command modifiers phase_skirmish_attack, phase_pursue_attack,
phase_melee_attack, phase_skirmish_defense, phase_pursue_defense, and
phase_melee_defense

liege size > 0.2 } checks that your realm size is at least 20% of your liege's
- Strings that are too long (above 1023 characters) will no longer crash the game,
though they should still be avoided as they simply don't work beyond 1023
characters. This should also solve crashes involving mismatched quote signs
- Strings that are too long now get logged in error.log

- has_coa_on_barony_only can now be set to yes/no on individual religions rather
than just groups. This will override whatever has been set for the group
- The "give_title" console command now gives more feedback if something is wrong
with the parameters
- Absolutely all tooltips now support custom loc. Generally, "Root" will be the
player
- Most text directly related to religion (E.G., religion name, description, holy
war name) now provide the religion itself for custom loc purposes
- Added a "RelHead" promotion for religion loc, meaning you can now for example
name a religion "Cult of [RelHead.GetFirstName]"
- Added optional generate_tooltip parameter for hidden effects. If set to "no", the
game won't generate the tooltip at all. Note that if event targets are set in the
hidden effect, this will break them in tooltips. It may also break randomization,
so only ever use it if you have a really compelling reason to do so
- Added 'add_modifier' and 'remove_modifier' console commands (for Character
Modifiers.)
- Added 'decision' console command, which ignores the trigger conditions
- Stewardship no longer applies a debuff when below 5; 0 is its baseline now like
all the other stats
- Added 'realm_levies_plus_allies' as an exportable value for the
'export_to_variable' effect.
- Added a Define for Looter army maintenance cost (LOOTER_ARMY_MAINT_MULT)
- random_list chances below 1% but above 0% will now use 2 decimals rather than 0
- The game will now log invalid tributary relationships in history (E.G., someone
being a tributary of a title with no holder)
- Fixed looting for raiding adventurers not of a religion/culture/government that
allows raiding not working
- If the flag "always_show_in_marriage_selection" is set on a character, they will
bypass most conditions to be shown in the marriage selection view. Note that this
does *not* allow otherwise illegal marriages, just ensures they show up in the
listing
- Fixed observing unplayable characters instantly booting you back to regular
observe mode
- headgear_that_hides_hair now bases itself on the portraitType of the headgear
rather than the character. This means that if someone changes culture and thus gets
headgear that should hide their hair, it actually will
- OR and AND triggers now don't show "all/one of the following..." if there's only
a single trigger within them
- Fixed it being possible for landed title adjectives in some edge cases ending up
empty
- Added the old religion to FROM scope 'in on_county_religion_change'
- Added trigger 'had_artifact_flag'
- Added trigger 'artifact' (to compare two artifact scopes)
- Added trigger 'climate'
- Fixed the "completely_controls" trigger not considering empty non-wasteland
provinces
- Fixed scoping to event targets in effects not being properly localised, thus
showing just a colon with no name before it
- Added "ai_check_interval" parameter for decisions. This determines how rarely the
AI checks a given decision, and can be useful for performance-heavy decisions that
don't need to be checked often. See 00_decisions.info for documentation
- Added a "shares_realm_border_with" trigger. Checks if any province in your realm
(everything under your titles) borders any province in their realm
- Added COALITION_THREAT_MAX_DISTANCE define. Independent AIs will consider
independent rulers within this range to be threats if they're strong enough
(COALITION_SCARY_TROOP_STRENGTH_THREAT_RATIO)
- "Added COURTIER_EVENT_PROCESS_OFFSET define, which determines how often courtiers
check MTTH events. Set to 50, as compared to 20 for rulers". This changelog entry
from 2.7 now actually has an effect
- Added num_of_society_members trigger. Scope must be a character or society.
Returns true if the society has at least this many members. Also supports <, <=,
==, and >=
- A lot of error messages that previously only showed in the internal beta .exe now
get logged at all times
- Added "hire_range" parameter for mercenary titles. If set, this overrides the
MERCENARY_HIRE_DISTANCE_THRESHOLD define for that specific mercenary
- Added "can_demand_religious_conversion" government parameter. Decides whether
people with the government can use the Demand Religious Conversion interaction.
Defaults to yes
- create_character now supports "dynasty = actually_culture" which picks a random
dynasty name from the culture if there's no unused static dynasty to use, rather
than just resorting to a random holding in the world (what "dynasty = culture"
does)
- Now possible to scope to timed modifiers in localisation. For example, if ROOT is
a character, [Root.modifier_name.GetExpiryDate] would show the expiry date of the
modifier. If no such modifier is present, nothing gets shown. Also supports
"GetName"
- random_direct_de_jure_vassal_title now exists. Works like
any_direct_de_jure_vassal_title, except picks one at random
- Fixed start_date and current_date checking that the days are equal rather than
equal or greater
- All numerical triggers now support comparison operators (>=, <=, <, >, and ==)
with a few exceptions: tier triggers, among_most_powerful_vassals. These exceptions
are due to operation triggers breaking existing behavior (E.G., "tier = duke" isn't
equivalent to "tier >= duke", which the comparison operators assume)
- Added "unsafe_destroy_artifact" effect, which can destroy indestructible
artifacts
- Artifact localisation (E.G., name and desc) now provides the artifact as From
- The artifact activation and gift triggers now provide the artifact as From
- Added support for "else_if" and "else". If one of these is placed after an "if"
or "else_if", it will be executed if the "if"/"else_if" limit returns false.
Example:
if = { limit = { something = yes } do_something = yes }
else_if = { limit = { something_else = yes } do_something_else = yes }
else = { do_another_thing = yes }
- Added trigger "artifact_can_be_gifted_to = ROOT", which checks if the artifact
currently scoped to can be gifted to the target character
- Now possible to specify "sound = no" for death reasons, which will prevent
killing someone with that reason causing a death sound
- Fixed FROMFROM (the holding title) not always being available in the building
trigger
- Fixed whatever character is FROM getting included in event option portrait lists
if you scope to something that isn't a character
- Improved the error messages for the reload_texture command, and made it more
forgiving when it comes to "/" vs. "\\" and ".dds" vs. ".tga". Also fixed it in
some cases crashing. Generally, simply copying the path specified in the .gfx file
should work
- Added COST_COMBAT_RATING define for specifying the cost of combat rating in the
ruler designer
- Added unsafe_impregnate and unsafe_impregnate_cuckoo effects. These can
impregnate someone who is already pregnant, while the two old effects are no longer
able to do so
- Added a fail_trigger_effect field for events. This effect is triggered if script
attempts to trigger an event, but the trigger isn't fulfilled. Useful for handling
things like one character in a chain dying for unrelated reasons partway through
the chain
- Fixed not all parts of the society rank tooltip having the appropriate scopes set
- spawn_unit can now take "province = closest_to_capital", which will spawn as
close to the character's capital as possible
- The "debug_mode" console command (AKA "charinfo") will now also show extra
information about titles
- The hardcoded opinion penalty for being imprisoned now references
"opinion_imprisoned" rather than "opinion_arrest_attempt"
- The "damage_unit" effect can now take negative numbers in order to heal units
instead
- Added "is_artifact_equipped" trigger, which can be used in an artifact scope
- Insults and compliments now provide the giver and receiver in localisation. The
giver is FROM, while the receiver is ROOT
- The game will now log titles and provinces for which no localisation exists
- The "set_name" effect now works on artifacts (before only worked on characters,
titles, and provinces)
- The "set_name" effect can now take a scope of the same type as the thing being
renamed. E.G., if you're renaming a character, "set_name = ROOT" will work if ROOT
is also a character, and take their name. Note that for artifacts this will use the
name *after* processing localisation, so all custom loc will become static upon
doing so
- Custom loc is now resolved when using the "set_name" effect, so something like
'set_name = "[This.Religion.GetRandomEvilGodName]"' will work
- Fixed resetting title names with "set_name" not causing it to take its cultural
name
- The "create_title" effect can now take "short_name = yes". This will suppress
"Empire of" and similar from the name of the title, just like it does when defining
a static landed title
- Added define SEND_ARTIFACT_GREED_MULT
- If you set the character flag "no_court_invites" on someone, they now become
impossible to invite to court. Useful for characters you want to ensure stay in a
specific court
- Added on actions on_eu4_conversion_start and on_eu4_conversion_done. Can be used
to prepare the gamestate for EU4 conversion, then restore the original state
- Added on_tyranny_gained and on_tyranny_gained_tyrant_only on-actions
- When debug_mode (AKA charinfo) is active, hovering over an event will now provide
a list of all event targets set, and what each scope corresponds to
- Added "log_scopes" effect, which records the above information in game.log. Like
the "log" effect, only logs if the game is started with the "-scriptlog" parameter
- Added "GetScopes" property for scopes in loc. This will show the same info as
"log_scopes". Note that it only works in scopes; once you've promoted to a specific
entity (E.G., a character), scope properties are unavailable
- Fixed the war scope not always being available in CB script when you'd expect it
to be (E.G., after scoping to "ROOT")
- Fixed negative society currency gains not showing up in the gain tooltip
- Added the following relation triggers:
is_parent_of = ROOT
is_cousin_of = ROOT
is_aunt_uncle_of = ROOT
is_nibling_of = ROOT - Checks niece/nephew
is_grandparent_of = ROOT
is_grandchild_of = ROOT
is_descendant_of = ROOT - Checks if the scoped character descends from the
ROOT. No limit on how far removed. Expensive, so use with care. Limited to 16
generations of removal for performance reasons
is_ancestor_of = ROOT - Checks if ROOT descends from the scoped character. No
limit on how far removed. Expensive, so use with care. Limited to 16 generations of
removal for performance reasons
- set_preferred_capital now works on static titles as well, not just dynamic ones
- Added "capital" title history effect, which sets the preferred capital of the
title
- "show_portrait" can now take a scope or similar. E.G., "show_portrait = ROOT"
will show ROOT, while "show_portrait = offmap_china" will show the emperor of
China. The right-hand-side can be a scope, a title, or an offmap power
- Added a "portrait" parameter to events, which determines which character is shown
in the upper-right corner. For example "portrait = offmap_china" will cause the
Chinese Emperor to be shown
- Added trade_route_control trigger. Example:
trade_route_control = {
trade_route = silk_road # What trade route to check against
value > 0.1 # What percentage needs to be owned.
Takes comparison operators
type = trade_post_locations # What to compare. Takes wealth,
provinces, trade_posts, and trade_post_locations. The latter two are restricted by
the trade post trigger in the trade route definition. Defaults to wealth if not set
indirectly_owned = no # Whether to include provinces in one's
sub-realm that are owned by vassals. Defaults to yes if not set
}
- Added alias for vassal_or_below trigger called liege_or_above_of.
- Added alias for liege_or_above trigger called vassal_or_below_of.
- Added decision filters independent_rulers and independent_rulers_including_me
- Added decision filter close_relatives. Includes children, grandchildren, parents,
siblings, and niblings
- The "female" paramenter in create_character can now take "random" or a number
between 0 and 100 in order to get a random chance of the person being a woman.
E.G., "female = 42"
- Added any_pupil and random_pupil scopes. Scopes to characters you're educating
- monthly_character_prestige and liege_prestige (and the piety versions) now work
for forts and trade posts as well
- Forts and trade posts can now give tech spread bonuses
- pdx_tooltip and pdx_tooltip_delayed now work in far more places than before
- Fixed religious names not checking the cultural base name in create_character,
unlike character birth
- Fixed the spouses of characters who don't get their title (E.G., "Count") in
their name getting the title in their name
- Virtually anything that works as a scope on the left-hand-side (E.G., "educator =
{") now works as a scope on the right-hand-side (E.G., "= educator") for triggers
and effects that support more than just relative scoping (ROOT, FROM, etc. and
event targets)
- Now possible to scope to religions, cultures, and their groups. E.G., "norse =
{". Note that for the groups, this simply scopes to the first culture/religion in
the group, not the actual group itself
- Added "can_use_cb" trigger, which checks everything in the CB itself, plus the
extra hardcoded restrictions on regular war declarations. Basically, checks if the
war would show up and be usable from the UI. Example:
can_use_cb = {
target = d_mecklemburg # What character to target.
Can also take titles
casus_belli = religious # What CB to use
thirdparty_title = d_mecklemburg # What title to target, if relevant
#thirdparty = FROM # What character to
declare on the behalf of, if relevant
}
- Ensured that effects work even if some of the systems they rely on haven't loaded
yet when they're first read. This was already the case for triggers
- Added is_or_was_offmap_power_ruler trigger
- Fixed a bunch of decision related triggers having their tooltip logic inverted
(E.G., saying "Can NOT take decision" when it should say "Can take decision")
- Added parameters attacker_unoccupied_warscore and defender_unoccupied_warscore.
See 00_cb_types.txt for documentation
- Fixed plot start date not being saved, meaning that the "plot_months" trigger
would be wrong after saving and loading
- Fixed the destroy_artifact effect causing the game to crash on launch if used
somewhere where the artifact database has yet to be initialized
- Diplomatic interaction on-action events now provide the starting scope (normally,
the actor) as FROMFROM so that you have a way to get back to the actor after
scoping to someone else
- The "while" effect now supports the "count" parameter, which determines how many
times it loops. E.G., "count = 10" means it will loop until the limit is no longer
met, or it has been executed 10 times, whichever happens first
- Fixed scope changes sometimes resulting in improper seeding. E.G., if you scoped
to FROM inside any_realm_title, any randomness would be identical
- Fixed casus belli effect execution not being seeded, so the same randomness would
always occur if conditions were similar enough
- Fixed the "is_lowborn" trigger checking the opposite of what it should;
"is_lowborn = yes" used to check that you're part of a dynasty rather than not part
of one
- Added any_tributary and random_tributary scopes
- Added player_heir scope, which scopes to the character shown on your character
sheet rather than whoever is heir to your primary title
- The on_war_ended on-actions now provide the war in question, meaing that war
triggers and effects like "using_cb" and "any_attacker" will work, similarly to how
they work in CBs
- create_title will now pick a color at random if there's no base title, rather
than always making the map color white
- Added set_description effect, which changes the description of an artifact to the
given string/loc key
- Added can_inherit government parameter. Defaults to yes. If set to no, characters
with this government cannot inherit titles
- The following opinion modifiers now work in all modifiers: rel_head_opinion,
child_opinion, dynasty_opinion, female_dynasty_opinion, male_dynasty_opinion
- In effect fields custom_tooltip will now always properly hide the tooltip of
nested effects.
- Added "window" attribute for events, which specifies the name of a GUI window to
use, meaning an event can be given virtually any look. Specifying the "background"
parameter will also apply that GFX name + "_option" to the option buttons if GFX by
that name exists
- Fixed clear_delayed_event not working on provinces if the event in question is a
narrative_event or similar rather than explicitly a province event
- Having fewer than 7 baronies defined for a county should no longer risk crashing
the game
- Added max_attacker_battle_score and max_defender_battle_score CB parameters,
which override the relevant define if set
- The "government" trigger can now also take a scope as its right-hand-side. E.G.,
"government = ROOT" or "government = k_norway". It will compare to the government
of the character the scope corresponds to
- Added capturing_defender_is_complete_victory and
capturing_attacker_is_complete_victory CB parameters. Default to "yes". If set to
"no", capturing the defender/attacker is not automatic victory, but instead gives
CAPTURED_HEIR_WAR_SCORE warscore
- Added "display_on_map" parameter to job actions, which can be used to override
the color of the job action when assigning it, and providing a tooltip, based on a
trigger. As many such sections can be added as desired; the first that evaluates to
true will be used. If none are defined, or if none evaluate true, the default green
color is used. The special colors are only used if the job action itself can be
used. The tooltip will be run through custom loc with the same scopes as the
trigger. Example:
display_on_map = {
tooltip = JOB_PROSELYTIZE_DIFFERENT_RELIGION # Key of the loc to add
to the tooltip
trigger = { # Trigger for when this
should happen. Same scopes as the allow/potential for the job action itself
NOT = { religion = FROM }
}
color = { 255 0 0 } # What color to use on
the map
}
- Added logging at game start if there are living characters who lack a culture or
religion
- Fixed not all event targets working with custom loc (E.G., artifacts)
- All notifications now have custom loc scope available. Those that didn't use to
now have FROM as the "sender" of the notification, and ROOT as the player
- Added government parameters
can_grant_kingdoms_and_empires_to_other_government_group and
can_be_granted_kingdoms_and_empires_by_other_government_group for governments.
Changed the defaults so that by default governments can grant within a group, and
receive from anyone
- Added AI flags "ai_flag_refuse_marriage" and "ai_flag_refuse_concubinage". If
set, the AI will never marry the character off or accept them being made into a
concubine, except if they're the person the character is getting married to/made
consort of
- Added logging for buildings that are built while their pre-requisites or the
building they upgrade from is missing
- Added artifact_age and has_known_creation_date triggers
- Added set_looter_hostility_days effect, which can be used to force a specific
time of looter hostility, including 0 in order to remove looter hostility
- Added "debug_events" console command. After running this, the game will keep
track of how many times each event has fired. This can be printed to the game
folder (wherever the CK2 .exe is) using "debug_dumpevents"
- Fixed scoping in custom loc working very inconsistently with script scoping at
times. Most importantly, this means that "Root" will no longer be undefined after
scoping to something else, so something like "From.GetRootRelation" should now
always work
- Fixed indentation in random_list tooltips not working properly if there's more
than one effect within a single entry
- Fixed provinces getting duplicate or no names in cases where "external" provinces
are defined in any spot other than dead last in the province list
- If you disable the prestige hit from unlanded sons for a tier, that tier will no
longer get the unlanded sons alert
- Fixed scoping to job titles looking really ugly in tooltips
- Made the error messages when wrong names are used for a number of effects and
triggers easier to understand
- Fixed it being possible to accidentally make everyone in the world allied when
using add_alliance
- Added logging when you in history put a date entry within another date entry,
since this is invalid and won't work. Can also help detect malformed script in some
cases
- Fixed portraits not showing up in trigger switches
- Ensured that a fake war exists for tooltip purposes before declaring a war, so
you can scope to the attacker and defender in the tooltips
- Fixed the graphical_culture trigger crashing the game if an invalid graphical
culture was used
- Added effect_even_if_dead history effect for characters. Will be run even after
the character's death, unlike "effect"
- Fixed the "new_character" scope in some cases not persisting when saving and
reloading
- Fixed missing newline at end of destroy_tradepost, destroy_fort, and
destroy_hospital effect
- random_list entries below 0 due to modifiers are now simply counted as 0 rather
than a negative number
- Fixed it being possible for the artifact name in the "Gift Artifact" interaction
to go out of bounds for very long artifact names
- Including a mesh that doesn't exist in a .GFX file should no longer crash the
game. Means that for example reapers_due_dlc.gfx can be modded without crashing the
game for users without The Reaper's Due
- The opening text for diplomatic events now supports custom loc, with Root being
the receiver and From being the sender
- Ensured no longer possible governments cannot persist for more than a month after
invalidation (E.G., due to changed culture)
- set_government_type now forces immediate government validation after setting the
government. This essentially means the character must meet the potential for the
government you set
- Tech point bonuses now work in all holding types, not just normal holdings and
hospitals
- The "is_married" pre-trigger now only returns true if the character has a living
spouse. Before also returned true if spouse was dead
- The game will no longer log errors about missing images or sounds for events
disabled due to lack of DLC
- Your designated regent is no longer reset upon a regency starting. For example,
this means you no longer have to reassign your regent after going on Hajj
- Fixed the "trade_route" trigger having no localisation
- Added "assassination_interaction_trigger" scripted trigger for the Assassinate
diplomatic action
- Fixed diplomatic responses in some cases showing you rather than the person
responding to you
- Made it clear that rulers without a scripted dynasty will get one generated at
gamestart. Now has "Unknown" dynasty rather than "Lowborn" on the campaign startup
screen
- Fixed income from tributaries not counting towards "yearly_income" triggers and
similar
- Fixed using export_to_variable not working on global and local variables
- The "capital" character history effect now actually works to set a character's
capital. Before it had no effect
- Fixed the on-start capital validation overriding the current capital for people
who don't have a preferred capital
- Fixed force_host normally resulting in the host simply resetting to one's
liege/own court a day later
- The secret_religious_cult scope now works even if the character does not have a
secret religion; it'll now always refer to their true religion instead (secret
religion if they have one, otherwise public religion)
- Added could_be_parent_of trigger, which checks if the scoped character is in the
right age range to be the parent of the target character. This means that they're
at least AGE_OF_MARRIAGE_MALE years older, and at most MAX_CHILD_BIRTH_AGE years
older if female (for immortal characters, as long as they became immortal before
this age they bypass the check). It also checks that they didn't die before the
birth date of the target
- Fixed a number of scopes (one example: the target of factions) being unlocalized
- Fixed a missing linebreak in the betrothal and marriage interaction tooltips
- Fixed broken betrothals appearing as marriages on the character screen until the
screen is refreshed. Now the character listing disappears entirely
- Fixed new campaigns in rare cases starting with alerts about council job
assignments
- Fixed matrilineal betrothals and marriages saying they're disallowed by at least
one party even when they're not
- Fixed nomad titles that should be dynastically named not being so on the
character selection screen, instead changing names once the campaign starts
- Ensured custom loc referenced from hardcoded loc properties (E.G.,
GetPlayerRelation) get processed
- Ensured custom loc works in the tooltip for dead characters
- Added on-actions on_revoke_attempted_started_war,
on_retract_vassal_attempted_started_war, on_absorb_clan_attempted_started_war, and
on_split_clan_attempted_started_war
- Added join_crusade_if_bordering_hostile parameter for religions. If set to yes,
the AI won't refrain from joining a crusade simply because it borders a
heathen/heretic realm

- Brew happiness potion should now be available on all direct vassals.
- Fixed supply status being reset when loading the game
- Fixed armies using up root at a slower and slower rate the less there is left

territory (and thus reinforce there)
- Fixed you sometimes getting kicked out of a faction for no apparent reason

###################
# User modding
###################
- Fixed the game failing to find government unique title names at times. Now it'll
never return the default name if a non-default one is defined. It now also tries
without the tier string before it tries without the government string, so if you
were to define "city_title" and "king_title", the former will be used
- "add_law" can now take parameters: "cooldown" and "opinion_effect". "cooldown"
simply works as a way to specify that there's no cooldown, like add_law_w_cooldown
does. "opinion_effect" can be used to specify that the opinion effect of passing
the law shouldn't be applied. E.G., the anger/happiness at succession law changes,
or at tribal organization changes. Existing script still works as before. Example
of new syntax:
add_law = {
law = true_cognatic_succession
cooldown = no
opinion_effect = no
}
- Messed up localisation is now less likely to crash the game
- FROM in on_character_convert_religion and on_character_convert_culture is no
longer a temp character, but instead the culture/religion itself. This only
provides access to comparing to the culture/religion (or group). It should also
still work to set cultures/religions and such. Please report any issues encountered
with it. This change also means that it should now be possible to reference the
previous characters outside "immediate" and similar without the game crashing
- same_society_as trigger will no longer be true when both characters are not part
of a society.
- Added the command line argument -scriptlog to enable log triggers and effects
without enabling script asserts.
- Added artifact backgrounds (arti_bg.dds, arti_bg_glow.dds, arti_bg_small.dds, and
arti_bg_glow_small.dds) to gfx/inventory/artifacts to make it easier for modders to
make their own artifacts that follow the style of the vanilla artifacts
- Added society icon backgrounds (society_symbol_bg_stone.dds and
society_symbol_bg_wood.dds) to gfx/inventory/societies to make it easier for
modders to make their own societies that follow the style of the vanilla societies
- Added a better secret religion system, now based around a code attribute rather
than traits. Characters can have up to one secret religion. If the character ends
up as their secret religion, their secret religion is cleared. This can be set and
accessed via script:
- Added triggers "secret_religion", "true_religion", "secret_religion_group",
and "true_religion_group". True religion being defined as your secret religion if
you have one, otherwise your public religion
- The religion triggers (religion, secret_religion, true_religion, and the
group versions) can now optionally take a "target_type" determining which religion
of the target they check against. E.G., religion = { target = ROOT target_type =
secret } will check if the scoped character's public religion is the same as ROOT's
private religion. The valid types are "public", "secret", and "true". The default
is to use the same as the type being checked; religion default to public,
secret_religion to secret, true_religion to true. A religion (group) name as the
right-hand-side works for all the triggers
- Effect set_secret_religion takes a religion or a scope. It optionally takes
a target type (true/secret/public), but defaults to secret
- Added trigger has_secret_religion which takes "yes" or "no"
- Added set_secret_religion and clear_secret_religion effects
- The "religion" and "set_secret_religion" effects optionally take a religion
type (true/secret/public) to determine which to use when a scope is referenced.
"religion" defaults to public, while "set_secret_religion" defaults to "secret"
- Added "secret_religion" console command that sets a character's secret
religion. Defaults to the player's character
- Who can see a character's secret religion is defined in 00_religions.txt
- Added a can_see_secret_religion trigger. Takes a scope, and checks if the
character scope you're currently in can see the target character's secret religion
- Societies can now have an associated religion, which is accessible from
script in the same way as character or province religion, including on the right-
hand-side of triggers and effects. This is scripted with for example
"associated_religion = catholic". It has no effect beyond being accessible via
script
- Added a convert_to_secret_religion effect. Takes "yes" or a character
scope. Sets your public religion to your secret religion, or the target character's
secret religion if a scope is used
- Added a on_character_convert_secret_religion on_action
- Added SecretReligion and TrueReligion localisation promotions so that
[This.SecretReligion.GetName] and similar work
- Added a dynamic secret religious society system that significantly reduces the
work involved in making a religious cult society
- All religions except those specifically excluded get a secret religious
society generated. The attributes of this society is defined by a template in
00_societies.txt
- Most the sections in society definitions now provide the society itself as
a scope (FROM)
- Societies can now have an associated religion (defined with

succeed him

religion that uses bishops, the temples will now have bishops generated rather than
not get handed to the recipient

independent characters of the conqueror's culture to join them in defensive wars.

they're not busy with wars of their own

(though the AI won't)

pact with

vassal of Britannia rather than England, and can trigger for the king/emperor as
well, not just their vassals
- The prestige you get from being a consort now scales with the tier of your
spouse. Reduced the prestige to half. Now it ranges from 0.5/month from a baron to
2.5/month from an emperor
- The capital duchy of a title, if held by the title holder, will under

primogeniture in that case
- Now possible to give temple holdings to children if that does not risk
disinheriting them
- No longer possible to appoint someone to your council when they're part of a
faction that's sent you an ultimatum; this could be exploited to have them leave
the faction, giving you an easy win in the faction war, or invalidating it entirely

them to ask to join the war, or be called in by the war leader

liege

- Added tooltip_info_modifier for event options. Works like "tooltip_info = trait",

impossible to unpause

with a character's plot power when it comes to murder plots

the top liege

diplomatic interactions from the other character. Also makes the trigger with the
same name return true
- Added a "non-interfering" option for opinion modifiers. The AI will not take
hostile action against the other character. Also makes the trigger with the same
name return true. Non-interference is considered a subset of "obedient", so any
obedient character is automatically non-interfering as well

globally rather than in a character/province/landed title

}

the console, such as the # of rulers of each tier, gender breakdown, and total
wealth. This also gets written to stats.log
- Added a "dynasty_stats" console command that prints a variety of statistics to
the console, such as the # of dynasties, number of single-person dynasties, and
number of dynasties with only dead characters. This also gets written to stats.log
- Added a COURT_PRUNE_SIZE define, which defines when the game will try to find
unneeded courtiers to kill off. Lowered to 10 from the original 20
- Added a "de_facto_liege_title" trigger, which checks that the defacto liege title
of a character or title is the right-hand side. Example: ROOT =
{ de_facto_liege_title = e_hre }. Both sides can take a character or a title. If a
character is provided, their primary title will be used. A defacto_liege_title
scope already existed, but this should make some operations easier

is immortal

has a pilgrim trait

considered the same name for the purpose of regnal numbering. Regnal names are
currently defined as having the same first first name (E.G., "Gustav" and "Gustav
Adolf" are the same regnal name), or the same cultural first first name (E.G.,
"Alfr_Alf" and "Alf_Alf" are the same regnal name)
- "monthly_income" and "yearly_income" can now be used in a holding scope. Before
it could only take a character. Example: "b_constantinople = { yearly_income =
15 }"
- Added a "has_inheritance_blocker" trigger, which checks if the character in the
current scope has a trait that blocks inheritance (cannot_inherit = yes)
- Added a "dynastic_prestige" trigger, which checks if the dynasty of the character
in the current scope has a prestige of at least the given value. Example:
"dynastic_prestige = 100"
- Added a "set_preferred_capital" effect, which sets the preferred capital of the
title in the current scope (used for a variety of things, such as the AI to
determine where to put their capital). Only works for dynamic titles, as static
titles base their capital off of the landed_titles folder
- Added a "lacks_dlc" event pre-trigger. If the DLC is enabled, the event will not
be evaluated
- Added a "has_dlc" event pre-trigger. If the DLC is disabled, the event will not
be evaluated
- Added a "war" event pre-trigger, which takes "yes" or "no", and checks that the
character is/isn't at war
- Added a "is_married" event pre-trigger, which takes "yes" or "no", and checks
that the character is/isn't married
- Added a "friends" event pre-trigger, which takes "yes" or "no", and checks that
the character does/doesn't have friends
- Added a "rivals" event pre-trigger, which takes "yes" or "no", and checks that
the character does/doesn't have rivals
- Added a "has_global_flag" event pre-trigger, which checks that the given global
flag has been set
- Added support for an after = { } - effect field in events. It works as a

# Expansion Features
###################
- Revised Black Death & Epidemic Mechanics
- The Black Death is now a major world event with devastating consequences!
- There are many different Black Death outbreak scenarios, both fictional and
historical (controlled via the Game Rules feature).
- Widespread plague might trigger an Epidemic Blame Game!
- Your peasantry demands blood! Will you blame the Witches, Jews or Cats - or
simply ignore the peasant rabble?
- The aftermath of a major plague might result in your peasants claiming this
is the End of Days!
- After the initial outbreak, the Black Death might become endemic and
sporadically return.
- A plague banner will appear if the world is suffering from the Black Plague or
if a minor Epidemic is in your realm, clicking it will bring you to the Epidemic
Map Mode.
- Hover the banner to see the epidemics currently ravaging the world!
- The new mapmode shows the coverage and spread of Epidemics across the map!
- Minor Epidemics (I.e. Slow Fever or Consumption) are more frequent and spread
in a more logical manner.
- Minor Epidemics might have Minor, Normal or Major outbreaks.
- Provinces infected by epidemics, especially the Black Death, might become
Depopulated.
- Depopulated provinces carry many penalties, such as tax, levy and supply
limit, but are easier to convert!
- Disease and Depopulation will have accompanying aesthetics:
 - Plague graphics; ravens and rats, peasants stacking or burning corpses, and
even a grim reaper if things are really dire!
- Plague audio; from occasional coughing to hordes of wailing peasants!
- Chronicle entries for plague outbreaks and regions being depopulated.

- Seclusion Decision
- Characters may go into Seclusion when an epidemic threatens, shutting their
capital holding off from the world. In seclusion characters are safe from the
disease outside, as long as no one inside is already infected...
- Secluded characters will be marked by a portcullis icon on their portrait.
- When in Seclusion, contact with the outside world is limited.
- Special Seclusion events will trigger for secluded courts, i.e. starvation.
- A ruler can at any time open the gates and go out of seclusion, doing this too
early might have consequences...

- Hospitals
- Hospitals are a new type of holding that can be accessed and built in the
Extended Province View.
- Hospitals protect against Epidemics, and help alleviate the effects of
Depopulation.
- There are several types of buildings that can be constructed in the Hospital
holding, i.e. Leper Colonies, providing various benefits.
- An icon in the Province view will show the current 'Hospital Level' of a
province, and the benefits of having them.
- You may ask the leader of a holy order of your faith to build a hospital in
your capital in exchange for permission to build a castle there too.

- Prosperity
- Provinces who are not Depopulated will eventually start to Prosper!
- Prosperity can increase in three levels, providing more benefit for each level.
- Prosperity ticks up over time, but is decreased by disease, bad governance and
war.
- Random events may increase prosperity of specific provinces.
- Bringing back loot as a raider will increase prosperity.
- A new ambition has been added that allows a peaceful ruler to increase the
prosperity of their realm.
- Prosperity increases the tax and levy regain rate of a province, while also
reducing the revolt risk.
- Prospering provinces are more likely to attract Epidemics.
- Each independent realm of the rank Duke or above, as well as larger vassals,
may set a province as their Crown Focus!
- The Crown Focus province will prosper quicker!
- If the Crown Focus province has the highest level of prosperity special
events may trigger giving permanent rewards, i.e. province modifiers giving bonuses
and extra holding slots!
- Your Crown Focus is marked with a 3D crown icon on the map for easy
reference!

- Revised Maimed Traits

- Characters no longer just get 'Maimed', there is now an entire category of
maimed traits!
- When you're maimed you now either become One-Eyed, One-Handed, One-Legged,
Disfigured or Mangled.
- One-Eyed and Disfigured characters will have new on-portrait graphics! Sport
eyepatches, broken eyes, silver masks and other ornate facial coverings.
- When Maimed you gain a temporary trait, 'Severely Wounded', which will heal
over time.
- Severe Wounds can develop into full-blown infections.
- Trait-specific flavor events, host a masquerade ball, become ambidextrous, or
many others!

- New Character Disease System

- Gone are the days of simply becoming 'Ill', diseases now come in many flavors!
- Before manifesting a disease you will now gain up to three Symptoms, symptoms
can also be harmless products of paranoia.
- Headaches, Fevers, Chest Pains, Diarrhea and many more!
- Diseases are more varied and, in general, more deadly!
- New diseases include the Flu, Gout, Dystentery, Rabies, Cancer and Food
Poisoning.
- Characters with Leprosy will become disfigured over time.
- Spend enough time at sea and you might contract Scurvy!

- Court Physician
- In order to protect yourself from Disease, you can now employ a Court
Physician!
- Court Physicians will attempt to diagnose any symptoms you have in order to
treat your disease more effectivley.
- Court Physicians provide various types of treatment for diseases, ranging from
cautious to experimental and even mystical!
- Court Physicians will, in addition to treating you, treat anyone in your court.
- Choose to reward a Physician for a job well done, or punish them for failing
in treating your friends and relatives.
- A new decision allows you to scour the realm to find a Court Physician, though
beware of quacks...
- Plenty of new flavor events tied to the Court Physician.

- Prisoner Interactions
- Depraved rulers can now choose to Torture or Mutilate their prisoners.
- You can choose to Publicly Humiliate your foes to sap their prestige.
- When executing a prisoner you will no longer just 'execute' them, instead a
culturally appropriate execution method will be chosen! A few new methods include:
- Burning heretics and witches at the stake.
- Carving your enemies into Blood Eagles.
- Impaling your victims.
- Crushing prisoners with Elephants in India!
- And many, many more!

& Death events!

wish for...
