Mercenaries in Multiplayer

[Diagoras]

Alright, so I changed part of the export_advice file to this:

¬-------------------

{Help_UI_Panel_Diplomacy_Early_Advice_Text_01_Title} Diplomacy Basics

{f_Early_Advice_Text_01_Text1} some text

However, now the game crashes whenever I try to start it up (it shows the start-up splash screen, then CTDs). I clearly screwed up in some critical way.

Nevermind that, that was an unrelated error.

Here, do this. Works perfectly. Made it myself, and have tested it multiple times


------------------

Here is the script, put it in data/show_me/scripts:

script

console_command force_diplomacy on
console_command force_diplomacy accept
wait 7
console_command force_diplomacy off

end_script

Save it as ForceDiplomacy

I made it a 7 second timer after you press the advice button, so you can choose what diplomacy you want, hit the show_me button, and then have 7 seconds to click on the little submit scroll before it turns off. I made it 7 just in case your game has some "act of god", plus after you force diplomacy you probably will just end the meeting.

Put this in export_descr_advice under AdviceThread Help_UI_Panel_Diplomacy_Early_Advice_Thread:

That


BTW, the location of the showme script is in the advisor scroll when you are in a "meeting", so when your diplomat talks to another or vice-versa, right after you both "engage" in talking is where to scroll is. Like I said above, i suggest you choose what you want demanded, click the "show me how", then press the submit.

And before i forget, if you want something you have to give something...even if its 1 denarii. The AI is dumb and easily manipulated, but not that dumb...it wont be giving you "free" stuff but it will do it very, very, very cheeply (1d for a city is cheap)

Yeah, I had fixed the problem, but that you made is roughly a thousand times better. :)

Thanks TruePraetorian, and everyone else who helped out.
