For adding Icons, The wiki says "In religion_icon_strip.dds, expand the canvas of the image to the right by 32 pixels for each new icon" without saying how to actually *do that.
How is it done?

dude you need some basic knowledge of Photoshop.
Edit: Attached is an example, if you want to use it you will need to increase "noOfFrames" in "generalstuff.gfx" by 2.
Edit2: attachment re-uploaded. I forget to pack religion_icon_strip_big.dds.

I'm trying to rework trait effects into modifiers to combat tactics, but running into some problems. The first snippet works in-game, but the second does not. What am I doing wrong?
Code:
leader = {
trait = holy_warrior
combat = { # Back to flank
enemy = { # Enemy flank
leader = { # Enemy commander
NOT = { # Religions must not match
religion = PREVPREVPREV
}
}
}
}
}
Code:
leader = {
trait = holy_warrior
combat = { # Back to flank
enemy = { # Enemy flank
leader = { # Enemy commander
# PREVPREVPREV is own commander
PREVPREVPREV = {
religion_group = muslim
}
NOT = { # Religions must not match
religion = PREVPREVPREV
}
}
}
}
}
I think you would need to have an AND or an OR block between leader = and the two religion conditions.
Tried it, just in case I hadn't before, but sadly, it makes no difference.
According to some past modding work, there is a limit to how many PREVs you can stack. If you are using them as a target, you can stack up to 4 PREVs, which is why the first snippet works (the PREVs are used as a target for a religion check and you're only stacking 3). If you are using them as a scope, you can stack up to 2 PREVs, which is why the second snippet doesn't work (the PREVs are used to try to scope to the leader and you're stacking 3).
This should work though:

The Emperor of China has his stats displayed as "?". Can this be applied to other characters as well? Or is it a side effect of character gaining an offmap title?
I was wondering if there was indeed a harsher limit on scoping with PREVs. Unfortunately, I also want to check for other religions, hence the scructure I was using. Seems I'll have to write slightly less efficient/readable code, unfortunately.
Thanks!
Why not just save the characters involved as event target and scope to those instead?
I'll just give it a try. Might also be worth trying to use the scopes listed in 00_on_actions.txt, which lists FROM as the opposing commander. Hopefully that's not limited to on_combat_pulse events.
How do you define a secret religious society for a modded religion so that it doesn't default to the template? Is it the same as every other society? If so, how do i make my religion use it? As of right now, when I make my character who secretly follows my modded religion the template with undefined local. is used. Do I just define these or will *every modded religion that uses the template copy what I've written? That would basically make my mod uncompatible with any other that adds custom religions.
How do you add decision icons? The wiki says you have to define a spriteType in interface/ called "GFX_<decision tag>" but that's clearly incorrect, since I did that and it didn't work.
You can define your own society or template in societies/ and then put either "dynamic_cult_template = <whatever>" in the religion definition to use that template instead of the regular one, or "secret_cult = <whatever>" to use that specific society as your secret society. It shouldn't affect any other religions.
In interface\ , create a <your_mod_decision>.gfx file with
Code:
### decisions ###
spriteType = {
name = "GFX_<decision_tag>"
texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\<decision_icon>.dds"
}Wiki is clearly right.
Go check <decision_tag> entry name in "decisions\<your_mod_decision>.txt". You might have a mismatching or misspelling <decision_tag>.

I double-checked everything, and it turned out I actually misspelled the file name. Thanks.
Like this? or am i doing something incorrect as well?
