Mod Walkthrough: CSV Relations overrides

[Balthagor]

Causus Bellli value. And it adds to whatever is already created by sphere/relations settings.

thank you

I'm going crazy, I change the values for this deal but when I change them, they are far from what I want them to be. The Numbers have no relation to another set. Please help

Dont forget that section is an overide. Its added ontop of the Influence. And infact for long term games you should be doing your relations changes with this part, Since the CSV override just affects starting relations, and evenualy they will drift towards the spheres of influence.

Although changing the spheres of influence is a bit tricky and requires multiple caching to get the adjustments right. Infact the best way to get this right is to dump the csv override and orbats from caching, and what everelse you can get away with not caching into it. This will cause the cache to process faster. You will then be able to make minor adjustments to the spheres do a quick cache see what the effects are. rinse and repeat until you have it the way you want. It wont be playable, but you will be able to tell relations right away. Then add back in the csv override. and other stuff into the cache.

The orbats are what really push the time for caching. Without Orbats you're looking at 5-10mins max. And Ruges comments are spot on.

I know that this is probably the mother of all thread revivals but I am trying to do a whole series of clever and difficult things to make a mod and I am undoubtedly way over my head in this, but I get the just of most of this so all that I really need to ask is how you create a one sided treaty?

Such as Egypt has with most of the world.

I am of course talking about SR:CW at this point but I believe that is of little consequnence on the process

Edit:

Looking through I can't seem to find a way to do this, although I am starting to suspect that it would be created via an event as well. Although that still doesn't explain where Egypt gets its starting sea transit treaty's from! Just can't seem to find reference to it in the files...

sorry...I want understand...
I must, however, start a new game? or it's apply at old saved game?
