Hi, there is somes aspect of ideologies I want to mod but I can't figure how. So, for each of the aspect below, I ask you: Does this is hardcoded? if no, how can I mod that? if yes, do you (DH developers) plan to make that modable?

A) Can I add new ideology (I'm almost certain that it's impossible, but worth asking)?

B) 4 ideologies are considered as democracy (so they can't attack other countries). Can I change that (exemple, making LWR acting like a democracy)?

C) Countries have default relation modifier depending of their ideology (communists have a bonus with other communists and a malus against fascists). Can I change this modifier?

D) Ideologies are sorted in 3 categories (democratic, fascist and communist). Can I change in which category is an ideology (to use with "government =" trigger)?

Thank you
 
As I modded the Ideology file itself, I can answer your questions.

A)It's impossible to add new ones. sorry.
b)You can change it but sticking the ideology on the top. The file goes like this:
Code:
I am using a modded version of a file called ideology_matrix.csv
Going left to right is going from 1-10 
On top is Democracy 
bottom is Dictatorships

ST;ST;LE;LE;LWR;PA;PA;FA;NS;NS;x
C) You can change it in the policy_effects.csv. You can also change how a democracy works as well.
d) I do not know how to change that though. maybe it's leftover code?

Thank you for your answers. (but my question to DH developers is still pending)

what's LE?

Leninist
 
Well yes folks you can add new ideologies. just go to "common\ideologies\00_ideologies.txt". open that file up and there should be 4 different ideologies democracy, communism, facism, nonaligned. basiaclly after that i just puzzled it out based off the other ideologies. I will attach the complete file at the bottom for those who want it. I hope this is helpful if not im very sry.

Where did you get that file from? That's not from DH. I'm thinking it's from AOD or HOI3?
