Changing laws via decision

[Jia Xu]

I want to set up a decision which will change crown laws. Does anyone know what the exact command is? In the history files law = centralization_4 and the like is enough. It's not working for decisions though, and I'm left wondering what the proper command is if it's not law =.

Try to look the peace consequences, because in some of them you have a change in the crown laws.

from the cb_types.txt.

any_demesne_title = { # All titles
				limit = {
					OR = {
						tier = king
						tier = emperor
					}
					is_titular = no
					NOT = { has_law = centralization_0 }
				}
				if = {
					limit = { has_law = centralization_1 }
					add_law = centralization_0
				}
				if = {
					limit = { has_law = centralization_2 }
					add_law = centralization_1
				}
				if = {
					limit = { has_law = centralization_3 }
					add_law = centralization_2
				}
				if = {
					limit = { has_law = centralization_4 }
					add_law = centralization_3
				}
			}
		}

or

if = {
			limit = { has_law = centralization_1 }
			add_law_w_cooldown = centralization_0
		}
		if = {
			limit = { has_law = centralization_2 }
			add_law_w_cooldown = centralization_1
		}
		if = {
			limit = { has_law = centralization_3 }
			add_law_w_cooldown = centralization_2
		}
		if = {
			limit = { has_law = centralization_4 }
			add_law_w_cooldown = centralization_3
		}

Ah, so it's add_law then? Thanks!

Crown laws are already decisions, basically. Unless you have a compelling reason otherwise, I'd suggest just altering the decisions/crown_laws.txt...

Crown laws in game can only be changed once per ruler, have to undergo the voting process, bla, bla, bla. I was just going to mess around with decisions to cut right to the chase. I'm just playing around right now, getting a hold on things. What CK2 really lacks is realm specific flavour decisions seen in other PI games. For example, in EU3, France gets a special decision which lets it switch to Absolute Monarchy before everyone else. It's a nice little nod to the Bourbon absolutism. I don't know where I'll apply these law changing decisions yet, but the first step with modding is always learning how to do it first.

Ah. Sensible enough, I suppose. Good luck!
