conversion decisions aren't showing up, how can I fix this

[Wise Strategist]

I modified the decision to convert to a empire so that you could also make the decision if you're a republic. I also add in a new 'Republic Federation' government type and created a decision for that as well, but neither seems to be showing up in despite my having 51 cites, could someone tell me how I can fix this problem, did I set everything right, and if not what do I have to do to get to so up in the game, oh and yes I did make the needed adjustments to the required localization file.

create_empire = {
potential = {
government = republic
government = monarchy
government = republic_federation
NOT = { government = imperium }
}
allow = {
num_of_cities = 50
government = republic {
tyranny = 10

}
effect = {
government = imperium
}
revoke_allowed = {
government = monarchy {
always = no
government = republic {
always = yes
}

ai_will_do = {
government = imperium {
factor = 1
government = republic {
factor = 0.5
}
ai_will_revoke = {
government = imperium {
factor = 0
government = republic {
factor = 0.5



create_federation = {
potential = {
government = imperium
government = republic
NOT = { government = republic_federation }
}
allow = {
num_of_cities = 50
}
effect = {
government = republic_federation
}
revoke_allowed = {
government = imperium {
always = no
government = republic {
always = yes
}

ai_will_do = {
government = imperium {
factor = 1
government = republic {
factor = 0.5
}
ai_will_revoke = {
government = imperium {
factor = 0
government = republic {
factor = 0.5

I think you may need an OR in the potential so instead of this:

create_empire = {
	potential = {
		government = republic
		government = monarchy
		government = republic_federation
		NOT = { government = imperium }
	}

have something like this:

create_empire = {
	potential = {
		OR = {
		government = republic
		government = monarchy
		government = republic_federation
		}
		NOT = { government = imperium }
	}

I think the first one does not show up since it is not possible that the government is both a republic and a monarchy at the same time. And as I assume that republic_federation is not a tribal government, I think this may be even better:

create_empire = {
	potential = {
		OR = {
		government = republic
		government = monarchy
		}
		NOT = { government = imperium }
	}

Apart from that check that all "{" matches a "}". And as they are decisions there is no need to include revoke_allowed, that is only relevant for laws, decisions can't be revoked as they are not persistent.

	create_empire = {
		potential = {
			government = republic		
			government = monarchy
			government = republic_federation
			NOT = { government = imperium }
		}

As Lofman said. Also, you don't need "republic_federation" there - presumeably that is a republic type, which is be covered by government = republic.

		allow = {
			num_of_cities = 50
			government = republic {
				tyranny = 10

		}

Big problem, incorrect syntax. Change it to:

		allow = {
			num_of_cities = 50
			OR = {
				government = monarchy
				tyranny = 10
			}
		}

This means that the country will always need 50 provinces or more. Monarchies need just that, while Republics also need to have high Tyranny, too.

		revoke_allowed = {
			government = monarchy {
				always = no
			government = republic {
				always = yes			
		}

This has no effect. As Lofman noted, things can only be revoked when they are laws. Same goes for the ai_will_revoke sections. They're included in vanilla because it's the same code as for laws, just in different sections.

		ai_will_do = {
			government = imperium {
				factor = 1
			government = republic {
				factor = 0.5
		}

Incorrect syntax again. Make it like this:

		ai_will_do = {
			factor = 1
			modifier = {
				government = republic
				factor = -0.5
			}
		}

	create_federation = {
		potential = {
			government = imperium
			government = republic
			NOT = { government = republic_federation }
		}

Surround this by an OR tag.

		ai_will_do = {
			government = imperium {
				factor = 1
			government = republic {
				factor = 0.5
		}

Same problem as above.

Lastly, make sure you close all curly brackets. You're missing quite a few.

Here's a fixed version of your code:

	create_empire = {
		potential = {
			OR = {
				government = republic		
				government = monarchy
			}
			NOT = { government = imperium }
		}
		allow = {
			num_of_cities = 50
			OR = {
				government = monarchy
				tyranny = 10
			}
		}
		effect = {
			government = imperium
		}
		
		ai_will_do = {
			factor = 1
			modifier = {
				government = republic 
				factor = -0.5
			}
		}
	}

	create_federation = {
		potential = {
			OR = {
				government = imperium
				government = republic
			}
			NOT = { government = republic_federation }
		}
		allow = {
			num_of_cities = 50
		}
		effect = {
			government = republic_federation
		}	
		ai_will_do = {
			factor = 1
			modifier = {
				government = republic
				factor = 0.5
			}
		}
	}

Haven't tested it, but I'm quite sure it will work (or at least appear in game).

Thanks Cheexsta and Lofman, for the help.

both decisions are showing up in the game.

Good to see that it's showing up now. Is it working as intended?
