Thanks a lot and sorry if I posted in the wrong thread. I am just curios. Can someone give me an example of what values I would have to change? I skimmed through the file and didn't see anything specific. These are the values I see, From;To;Type;Through. I assume I make the 0 in through to a 1?
Start up your game.
Type: <F12>
showid <enter> <F12> <enter>
That will let you determine the internal ID codes that the game uses for provinces.
Now point your mouse at each of the two provinces that you want to join (eg: Tokyo, then Busan)
Read the ID codes in the lower right part of the screen, and write them down.
Now quit the game. You might want to copy-and-paste a backup copy of the adj-defs.csv file onto your desktop before you open and edit it.
Open adj-defs.csv
in Notepad (or in Notepad++).
Do not open it in Excel, despite the fact that it is indeed an Excel file.
Near the bottom of the file (but above any EOF line) add a new line:
From = the code for one province you wish to join
To = the code for the other province you wish to join
Type = Impassable
Through = 0 (unless you want to include the province code for a sea area that can cut the connection if enemy occupied).
... so if Tokyo were province 1204 and Busan were province 889 (I'm just inventing these numbers), and if you wanted to allow enemy ships in sea area 447 to cut the connection, then the new line would read:
1204;889;Impassable;447 #New connection Japan to Korea
Just make your new line look like the existing lines of code, and you should be fine.
Save and exit. Start up the save-game. Click on one of the "newly connected" provinces (eg: Tokyo). You should now see a new connection (with a red
X) to the other province... and you should be able to deploy troops directly there.
