I uninstalled the Installer+Eb and reinstalled Eb and then manually installed EB II with the Modpack and PBeM. So its NOT my installer

I am intrigued as to how you came across EB II.

The money is distributed to the faction right before its turn starts, and when it comes to the AS, you are the only one who have gotten that far. It literally can't be anyone else's. That is an impossibility. You must not have installed it correctly. The only other way it could've happened would be either you, me, TP or Mjolnir using the add_money cheat to give them 30k, but neither of us did. I know that because I also downloaded Mjolnir's save, ended the turn and then loaded the quicksave. The AS only had 3k then.

So it really is your install.

Edit: Well, okay, I can't know that you didn't use the add_money cheat. Did you?

As I said before, you probably just didn't switch the original EBBS_SCRIPT.txt with the EBBS_SCRIPTpbem.txt. I made it this way so it didn't overwrite anything.

Also, CAMPAIGN_SCRIPT.txt needs to be switched.

It is a simple name change that was found in the instructions in both the minimod folder and on the download page.

But if you did that then there is no other logical reason that I can think of.

And as Subotan asked in the Campaign Thread, "How does the AI play without the money script?" or something like that. The AI still plays, just not as well. This minimod was made for the enjoyment of the human player, with the AI factions merely stepping stones.

I CAN fix this, though, if everyone wants. On my turn (since Rome goes first) I can make a script for MY install (no one but me would have to change anything) with the proper AI factions gaining a money boost every turn. No problem on my end if you want it.

if that means we (the human players) get money bonus at every start of the turn, i would say no. i like to play economic war and that is impossible with money bonuses.

No, what I mean is whenever I take my turn, I will activate a custom script..a really simple one too. It will give money only to the AI.

For example, no one is the Aedui or the Saba. So when it is my turn I will load up the game, activate my scripts, and then activate a cusom made one. In the custom script it will give money to only the AI factions.
