So.. does this still work?

update please- this is a great mod <3

抱歉依旧可以用，不过要注意MOD顺序，顶置就完事了。嘻嘻

现在不行了，需要更新啊

Hello! I would like to know if this mod is compatible with the latest version of the game?

I compared the code with the vanilla files and it is still valid. The mod causes no problems playing with update 1.6.*.

@Wolfskrieg yes

Quick Q: does the AI get 4 duchies too?

Probably the single most important mod I use, and I use 115+.

This is a interesting mod but i whould love to see a mod, that just allows to hold one more Duke-Title for each Kingdom title one holds. So you may hold some dozen duchies but as soon as you become a King the limit is 1+X where X is the number of Kindom titles. That should allow one to hold a duchy and in addition one duchy in every Kindom one ownes without the penalty of the vanilla game.

(1/2)From what I can tell(sorry, not using this one mod in particular, so SkyRipper can correct me if I'm wrong, just stumbled upon this debate while browsing for a good duchy number myself) the main problem is that you can't really define a duchy limit the same way you can a domain limit. While domain limit can be granted a number of ways and seems to be a "keyphrase", for lack of a better term, for the script language which you can insert into almost anything, the duchy limit and opinion penalty are defined base values with no obvious ways to modify them aside from overwriting the base value in the common/defines directory of a mod.

Btw, if you are new to it, don't overwrite the whole 00_defines.txt , just make a differently named .txt and only copy the relevant values over to overwrite to avoid much of the compatibility issues.

(2/2)That said it might be possible to bootleg a system where higher tier rulers get a trait giving bonus opinion relevant to their rank to counterbalance a wanted number of duchy penalties, but this of course has its own problems, not least of which is ck3s atrocious trait id system, which torpedoes much compatibility and the fact that writing the needed events, triggers and checks while trying to avoid writing bugs into it. Ideally it would check how many duchies a ruler has in addition to his rank and give the appropiate trait, but at this point this hypothetical reaches a complexity and need for maintenance every patch that I know I wouldn't be doing it for my own games, easier to edit a single number in a local mod before a new game if I want to adjust it and let the ai have the leeway.

Looks back at wall of text, takes a double take. And here I started writing this only intending to answer Gelses question... oh well, thank you for attending my ted talk.

I think a better way to balance out is a linear fashion for duchy limit ie a duke 1/2 a king 3/4 and an emperor 4/5 or maybe even 6 lol

which file i have to mod and where is it located at?

At least i have opinion +30. thx for this mod

@Johnny Tightlips that was not his point, he wanted to get an extra duke title slot for each emperor title, and no i don't have another mod, that would basically be cheating, with 0 = no limit, you could just have all duke titles in the game without any negative effect XD

"and replacing 4 with 0 would make it have no limit" I think that was his point all along! do you have a mod where you're replacing 4 with 0 (no limit)?

@Lord_Maelstrom No, removing it would just make the game use it's default setting, and replacing 4 with 0 would make it have no limit

@Lord_Maelstrom that is sadly not possible (or i just don't see how it can be), the duchy titles max before opinion penalty is defined on the defines file, so i can't make options of increasing by one based on the title you hold, i only have a literal option of changing the minimum number.

@Mr. Chiweenie don't think it's possible, there is no option to highlight things on events, i have seen some with diplomacy having a red line around them but i can't find how to replicate that, so might be hardcoded, i will check a bit more but i don't think it will be possible

@SkyRipper One mod I'd love to see would be to have it so anytime a player choice might result in a hook on you would have that option highlighted in red. Don't know if that's possible but you seem Talented...

@Mr. Chiweenie yup, especially some Kingdoms are 3-4 duke titles so you can hold the entire kingdom + king title, makes it more awesome for me.

Even if you only want to hold 2 or 3 titles this makes it MUCH easier to arrange your kingdom as you see fit. Gotta have it.

@boy in blue yes so far it is, will it be forever tho?

two plus two is four
