View Full Version : More than 1 Cathedral: No Bishops?

When I built my first Cathedral the Priests produced there were Bishops and had higher Piety. I've several Huge Cathedrals and normal Cathedrals now but I don't get any Bishops.
Is this intended? Is the Bishop production limited to one special Cathedral and I'm producing in the wrong one? I honestly can't remember where my first one was build.
:help:

Hmmm...
this is detmined by the Priest level trait:
Trait PriestLevel
Characters priest
Level Bishop
Description Bishop_desc
EffectsDescription Bishop_effects_desc
Threshold 1
Effect Piety 1
Effect Level 1
Level Cardinal
Description Cardinal_desc
EffectsDescription Cardinal_effects_desc
Threshold 2
Effect Piety 1
Effect Level 2
Effect HeresyImmunity 1
The only triggers that effect this are:
Trigger priestinit4
WhenToTest AgentCreated
Condition AgentType = priest
and SettlementBuildingExists = cathedral
and Trait PriestLevel = 0
Affects PriestLevel 1 Chance 100
;------------------------------------------
Trigger cardinalinit1
WhenToTest CardinalPromoted
Condition Trait PriestLevel = 1
Affects PriestLevel 1 Chance 100
;------------------------------------------
Trigger cardinalinit2
WhenToTest CardinalPromoted
Condition Trait PriestLevel = 0
Affects PriestLevel 2 Chance 100
So it appears if you train a priest where you have a Cathedral you should always get a Bishop. And there is no way for an esisting Priest to get prompted to become a Bishop (should be easy to mod in if you like though).
I would guess this mean a Huge Cathedral only gets you a regular Priest - bug?
Additional:
Oh and just to make things more complicated I notced these traits:
;------------------------------------------
Trait Bishop
Characters priest
Hidden
Level A_Bishop
Description A_Bishop_desc
EffectsDescription A_Bishop_effects_desc
Threshold 1
Effect Piety 1
Effect Level 1
;------------------------------------------
Trait Cardinal
Characters priest
Hidden
Level PriestToCardinal
Description PriestToCardinal_desc
EffectsDescription PriestToCardinal_effects_desc
Threshold 1
Effect Piety 1
Effect Level 2
Effect HeresyImmunity 1
Level BishopToCardinal
Description BishopToCardinal_desc
EffectsDescription BishopToCardinal_effects_desc
Threshold 2
Effect Piety 1
Effect Level 1
Effect HeresyImmunity 1
But there are no trigger that effect them? Unused??

Yes, to me it looks as if a Huge Cathedral only produces Priests.
Also, the Cathedral only produces a Bishop if the produced Priest has Piety=0. I could imagine that other factors influence my Priest production and makes them spawn at piety=1. If that is so, my whole Bishop production is broken.
Seems like a bug.

Could we mod in an 'Archbishop' trait for Huge cathedrals?
There is a guild .. theologist if i remember .. whitch adds +1 pietry to your priest on lev 1 can be upgradet to lev 3 ... should be + 3 ... build your catedral here / the huge one / should help ..
It's most likely a typo. Just change the check line to:
"and SettlementBuildingExists >= cathedral"
Then anything larger than a cathedral will produce bishops.

Yeah... remember a whole load of that kind of messed up traits in Rome, and the current Bad Taxman now.
Archbishop should be easy. Just another level before Cardinal comes along. I guess the Archbishop could be immune to herecy? Otherwise he might become too pious and thus make Archbishop instant Cardinals (I have had a few of that kind among the bishops already).

How one can do that? Which file should be modified?

You can't yet...
That's what I thought. Thus I was surprised by the advice.
Well, there is a modchanger somewhere that lets you change stuff, but it isn't the easiest as far as I ahve heard, so I advice people to wait for the unpacker.

Same issue. Have probably built at least 10-12 cathedrals, and think I only ever got one Bishop right after the first one I built.
Part of this I imagine is that I tend to train priests closer to the front, and the cathedrals are more common in the old section of my empire.
I get bishops from any catholic cathedral I build, but only priests from huge cathedrals. I did have an issue where I took a city from another catholic faction that already had a cathedral in it, built a priest and didn't get a bishop, but after that it started working. I had 8-10 cathedrals in my Spanish campaign and could create bishops in any of them. I generally restricted it to just one of three, though. One had a Theologians Guild in it so they came out better there, and the other two were in places where when I needed a priest, I needed it NOW and not 10 turns from now.
If you are brave enough to try a modswitch, you can play with a modded game. I've been fixing stuff the whole of last week.

And follow the mod switch instructions of this thread:

It is quite simple.
