Spies Have More Options Available

Ever wondered why your spy can't instigate civil wars even having max undercover network and cover points? Probably not because you more than likely bought the game 2 years before I did and figured it out already, but I had to do a surprising lot of digging to find out that only faction leaders can instigate civil wars. To which my first thoughts were A) why the hell isn't that in a tooltip somewhere and B) why in the world would I want to instigate a civil war if my spy is leading the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ faction? I should be puppeteering ♥♥♥♥ out of that faction, it's no use to me if it self destructs. This mod changes that so all spies can instigate a civil war as well as other actions that don't directly depend on a specific position.


Specifically, the actions I made available are:

• Assassinate faction heir
  
• Assassinate faction leader
  
• Infiltrate army
  
• Falsify marching orders
  
• Leak marching orders
  
• Deny military supplies
  
• Poison military provisions
  
• Pursue ministerial appointment
  
• Pursue administrative appointment
  
• Improve relations
  
• Instigate civil war

Should be compatible with any mod as long as they don't also modify the agent_actions_table (additions should also be okay) (forgot that it doesn't work unless I data core it for some reason, so this might not necessarily be true). Is tested with MTU and TUP

This mod should be save game compatible, both activating and deactivating. If anybody finds a reproducible instance contradicting this statement, please let me know and I'll update the description and/or fix the mod if possible.


This mod modifies the "agent_actions_tables" by assigning the value "is_recruited" in the "Acting Character Position in Faction" column to the respective record. There are a bunch of preset values for this column

• any - unused, doesn't seem to work, as any actions you set to this simply do not appear (theoretically it seems to be for any spy you send to a faction regardless of whether or not they've been recruited)
  
• is_recruited - this one is for any and all spies officially recruited into a faction
  
• commanding_military_force_retinue - this one is for when the spy is serving as a general
  
• commanding_military_force - unused, seems similar to above but not sure
  
• governor - for administrators
  
• family_member - for members of the faction leader's family
  
• faction_leader - when leading the faction they're spying on

There's a lot more that I want to do to rework the spy system (like add a chance for failure, increased or decreased action costs based on position, assassinate others that aren't the faction leader or heir, convert spies to vassals when faction leader, even provide a chance of spies immediately turning when becoming faction leader), but I'm still looking around the database figuring out what I can and can't do (there's a column for "chance of success" that just doesn't do anything?), and I already find having spies more fun and worthwhile with this (if maybe a bit overpowered). I was also surprised that I couldn't find any mods that did something like this already (if somebody did make one I'm very very sorry, please DM me and I'll take this down, also link me your mod please), so I figured that I'd post this in case somebody else wanted something like this.
