IntroductionDarkest Hour: A Hearts of Iron Game, or DH, is a grand strategy wargame that is based on Paradox Interactive’s Europa engine. It is described as a 1914-1964 Grand Strategy Game and it allows the player to take control of and manage nearly any nation-state during the 1914-1964 timeframe including its political, diplomatic, espionage, economic, military, and technological aspects.Darkest Hour is, at its core, an evolution of Heart of Iron 2 Armageddon. The DH Development Team took this decision in order to make it easy to port community-made modifications from HOI2 to DH. This means the Core version of the game has many of its new features disabled or set as close as possible to HOI2 Arma values. However, to take full advantage of the many new features and improvements, two mods have been created by the DH Team to use the full potential of the new code right from scratch, «Darkest Hour Light» and «Darkest Hour Full»:

• Darkest Hour (core game): this version is focused on compatibility with Heart of Iron 2 Armageddon and all mods available for it. The number of changed files has been kept as low as possible and all new options are disabled or set as close as possible to the original settings.

• Darkest Hour Light: this version is available as a mod with only a few changes from HOI2, but nearly all new features are enabled.

• Darkest Hour Full: this version is available as a mod without any compatibility with HOI2 and implements or reworks many new features, the most visible difference being the new map.

Another important characteristic of Darkest Hour is full Moddir support. Thanks to its launcher, it is possible to choose a specific Mod before launching the game, without having to make multiple installation: a single installation of Darkest Hour will be enough to choose each time among different mods.

The following chapters will contain useful information on these subjects:

– instructions on how to port a Mod from HOI2 Arma to Darkest Hour;

– the new concepts introduced with Darkest Hour;

– the changes in modding introduced by Darkest Hour;

– useful informations on the new map;

How to port a HOI2 Arma Mod to Darkest HourPorting a HOI2 Armageddon Mod to Darkest Hour is very simple, because DH Core is fully compatible with Armageddon. There are only a few things that need to be changed for a mod to start properly because some bugfixes and new features introduced by DH were not possible without modification that affect basic files.

The Darkest Hour Mods PackIn the main folder of Darkest Hour there is a folder called Modding documentation which, among many useful things (this Guide included!), contains another folder called Darkest Hour Mods Pack that can be used for easy Armageddon 1.3 to DH mod conversion. It contains the following files: configButtons.txt configmods.csv dbdifficulty.csv dbdiplo_costs.txt dbleaders.txt dbministers.txt dbmisc.txt dbspy_costs.txt dbteams.txt gfxinterfaceill_prov_overlay.bmp gfxinterfacemap_circle.bmp gfxinterfaceplate_division.bmp gfxinterfacetc_icons.bmp

These are the files that need to be in the new DH format in order for the game to work and are the only files that modders should worry about when porting their mods to DH.

• configButtons.txt — new button definition *we changed certain interface elements for new features, and of course those need new buttons*

• configmods.csv — the file where all modders should put mod specific texts to ensure compatibility with further game patches. This file will never be modified by any patch.

• dbdifficulty.csv — new difficulty settings *some of our new features are influenced by the difficult settings and got their own entry here*

• dbdiplo_costs.txt — only one change here from 1.3: removed «-» sign from all costs• dbspy_costs.txt — some changes from 1.3 as most spy system modifiers are moved to misc.txt now.

Only cost and chances are left here.• dbmisc.txt — tons of new modifiers here, but all are set to Armageddon 1.3 defaults, so you have

only to edit those values you changed for your mod for 1.3• dbteams.txt — list of all tech team files that should be loaded by the game. These files could be

either in MODDIR or in main game folder. By default it is populated with all 1.3 file names so you just need to add your new file names and (optionally) remove those you don’t see need to be loaded by your mod

• dbleaders.txt — list of all leader files that should be loaded by the game. These files could be either in MODDIR or in main game folder. By default it is populated with all 1.3 file names so you just need to add your new file names and (optionally) remove those you don’t see need to be loaded by your mod

• dbministers.txt — list of all minister files that should be loaded by the game. These files could be either in MODDIR or in main game folder. By default it is populated with all 1.3 file names so you just need to add your new file names and (optionally) remove those you don’t see need to be loaded by your mod

• gfxinterfaceill_prov_overlay.bmp — changed file. • gfxinterfacemap_circle.bmp — changed file. • gfxinterfaceplate_division.bmp — changed file.

• gfxinterfacetc_icons.bmp — changed file.

Notes:

1) This pack is supposed to be Merged with the mod.

2) Only files that were actually changed by the mod, which are included in this pack should actually be updated/replaced by files from the pack. The rest (except 3 — see next) can be skipped as they are identical to DH Core files already installed in the game’s main folders.

3) The only files that must be included into mod’s folder are dbministers.txt, dbleaders.txt and dbteams.txt

Usual 1.3 Mods porting steps1) Create a new folder for your mod in Mods folder;

2) Extract all mod files into that folder preserving original game folders tree;

3) Using a program like WinMerge compare mod’s folder with Darkest Hour Mods Pack folder and update files as required:

• Copy dbministers.txt, dbleaders.txt and dbteams.txt and add any mod specific file names there;

• Copy and update configButtons.txt, dbdifficulty.csv, dbdiplo_costs.txt, dbmisc.txt, dbspy_costs.txt ONLY if these are changed by your mod from vanilla 1.3 values;

• Copy gfxinterfaceill_prov_overlay.bmp, gfxinterfacemap_circle.bmp, gfxinterfaceplate_division.bmp and gfxinterfacetc_icons.bm ) ONLY if these are changed by your mod;

4) Create an empty «save games» folder in your mod’s scenarios folder;

5) Select your mod from DH game Launcher;

6) Play;

New conceptsDarkest Hour introduces some new interesting concepts:

– claims

– decisions

– automatic release of nations

– new spying system

– improved trade system and stockpiles

– actions and commands with triggers

– events with only one action

– events with saved date

ClaimsClaims have been introduced. Claims are basically used for diplomatic purposes and are useful to assert the desire of a country to own and control a province. There are no economic benefits of claiming provinces: they are counted as non-national when it comes to IC/MP/Resources or revolt risk and there will be no way to transform those claims into cores.However, claimed provinces are counted as national when it comes to diplomacy or country release. That means that a claimed province appears in the «Have claims against…» section and can be asked with the «Demand Territory» mission in the Diplomatic tab. The AI won’t secede provinces it has claims on to allies/puppets even if those provinces are cores to that ally. In most cases claims will be used by players just to «redraw» the map in the way they wanted it to be after a successful war, especially in case of partition. Via the right-click menu it is possible to add and remove claims to single provinces, areas or regions. Claiming non-owned province increases belligerence and removing claims from such provinces decreases it (both values are set in misc.txt). Claimed provinces can be seen best on the Diplomacy map mode — they use lighter green than cores and also a black dot as opposed to the red one used for cores.However, there are some limitations to avoid exploiting this new mechanism: it is not always possible to claim provinces of another country. New claims can be freely set to war enemies, but can be set to neutral countries only if policy allows that (interventionism must be high enough). Moreover claims cannot be demanded from countries that you are guaranteeing at the same time.Another new useful feature is that peace negotiations now take into account cores and claims:

• «Insist on Demands» automatically adds all claims and cores the initiating country has to the demanded provinces list;

• «Beg for Peace» automatically adds all claims and cores the receiving country has to the demanded provinces list;

This new concept of course requires new triggers, commands and configurations:– Manual claims can be enabled or disabled from misc.txt (diplomacy section :

Allow manual claims change in-game for players: 1 — Enabled, 0 – Disabled );– It is possible to set in misc.txt the increase and decrease of belligerence for

adding and removing claims (does not apply for owned by enemies or claimed province via event command);

– There is a new provinces list named «claimedprovinces» available for countries which can be set in scenario (INC) files and in revolt.txt (claims = { } list);

– New trigger: claims = { province = a [data = tag ] } # check if that province is claimed by TAG (or country in question if not specified);

– New event command: type = addclaim which = [prov id] # Add province to country claims;

– New event command: type = removeclaim which = [prov id] # Remove province from country claims;

– Added restrictions to demand and set new claims:* new claims can be set to war enemies or allies/puppets/masters* new claims can be set to neutral countries only if policy allows that (new policy modifier in policy_effects.csv)* claims cannot be demanded from guaranteed at the same time countries

DecisionsDarkest Hour implements a unique “Policy decisions” concept that allows players to take a specific decision when they think the time is right (provided that they match all requirements). As an example, when playing the 1936 Grand campaign as Germany, a “Reoccupation of Rhineland” decision will be available with specific requirements to be activated. As soon as the player activates the decision, a newspaper notification appears, offering him a little bit of historical background. From the point of view of the code, a decision is an event with two new clauses: — decision = { … insert normal triggers here … } : if these triggers are fullfilled the decision appears in the decision list for the human player;- decision_trigger = { … insert normal triggers here … } : if these triggers are fullfilled the decision can be taken by the human player;When the decision is taken, it fires as a normal event. Please beware that for AI nations decisions are treated as events, this means that only the usual trigger = { … } section is checked! This means that all three sections (decision = {}, decision_trigger = {} and trigger = {}) must be correctly compiled to make the decision work. Moreover, the decisions appear and can be taken only during the chosen date-deathdate, so that part of the code must always be compiled too!Here are more technical informations on decisions:

Decisions concept:* new modifier in misc.txt (“mod” section): #Enable decisions for players. 0 — Disabled, 1 – EnabledBasics1. Decisions will be just slightly modified events.2. They will differ from regular event only by the presence of a new section: decision = {}3. New entry in the event : decision_trigger = { }. It is optional and will be used instead of trigger = { }. When it is true the decisions will be active for selection. When not present trigger = {} section will be used for that.4. Decisions will be treated as regular events by the AI (only the trigger = {} section will be checked).5. Players will have the power to choose when a decision could be applied.6. Decisions will be hidden until all triggers in decision = { } section is true.7. Decision will be available for selection when all triggers in decision_trigger = { } section (if available, otherwise trigger = {}) in the event are true.8. Once selected the decisions will fire as regular event via standard event window with all the usual information and actions on it.9. Decisions will be logged in event history as regular events.10. Decisions list will be populated on game start and updated daily.11. Decisions can be enabled/disabled via a new setting in misc.txt («mod» section).12. New entry in the event : decision_desc = «….», optional decision specific text (used on tool-tips instead of event description).13. New entry in the event : decision_picture = «picture_name.bmp». Optional

(there will be a generic picture loaded by default — gfxevent_picsdecisions_empty.bmp), placedon the decision plateUI1. Available decisions will be listed in a new list similar to units/provinces list.2. Decisions list can be selected via a new button (next to Provinces/Army… buttons).3. Decisions that cannot yet be taken will have a red X to mark them.4. Active decisions can be selected and applied.5. Tool tips:

a) Decision Name = event titleb) Decision description = event textc) Triggers — already valid triggers will have a green «+» or «*» as prefix, while inactive will have a red one.d) Action name + effects.e) Decision only text — specified in the event as decision_text = «….». Optional, will be used in place of decision description text on the tool-tip.6. There will be notification when new decision is added to the list.7. The deicision list button should change state to inactive when there are no visible decisions.8. The deicision list button should not be visible when Decisions are disabled from misc.txt.

9. Add decision mini-picture — optional, specified in the event (decision_gfx = «picture_name.bmp»)10. Added cancel button to decision’s event panel.Limitations1. Decisions should not use random elements in any triggers so tool-tips to be correct. EDIT No problem to use random trigger in AI only actions or commands2. For better formatting on tool-tips NOT = { trigger1 … triggerX } should be used for individual triggers only NOT = { trigger1 } … NOT = { triggerX }

New Spying SystemDarkest Hour’s Spying System is based on the Arma 1.3 Spying System, but is further improved and enhanced. Its main features are:

– fixed spying AI — it can do any mission now

– send/kill spies missions removed and replaced with Spy Network levels (0…20)

– increased game speed

– all modifiers exported for better modding!The first thing that you need to know is that there two modes: manual and semi-automatic intelligence. While the manual mode has many similarities with HOI2 spying system, the semi-automatic is much more interesting. There you can allocate a certain part of the national income to intelligence operations. There are also others factors that you can play with such as spy activity or the minimum level of infiltration required prior to any foreign operation. Furthermore, as the Head of your State, you can assign generic or specific priorities to your intelligence services. Specific country priorities can therefore be set in that regard. But there are also missions specific priorities which allow you tell your intelligence services what specific mission to perform (either globally or in a certain country). You will for instance be able to perform only industry sabotage in one country or couple it with industrial espionage, provided that you need two times more sabotage missions.Automation:

– Can be enabled or disabled

– Even when enable players still can do any mission to any country manually if they want

– auto-increase of spy levels to manually set Max level (0…20)

– set spy money threshold (use money above XXX)

– Min. spy level threshold before try to do any foreign missions (0…20)

– Spy activity

– Min chances for every spy mission (do no try a mission if chances are less than threashold)

– Can add/remove countries from spying list

– Can set country priority for each country in the list

– Can set missions priority for each country in the list

– Can apply same priorities to all countries at once

– Can clear countries list at onceSpy reports, added:

– Convoy/Escorts

– Resources

– Submarines, Transports

– HQ

Improved trade system and stockpiles

Automatic release of nationsAnother very interesting new feature introduced by Darkest Hour is the Automatic Release of Nations. First of all, claims are taken into account when a new nation is released and are considered like extra provinces. Moreover, Darkest Hour reviewed the automatic release of countries done by the AI, which suffered many limitations: the AI could release a country in its release = { } list only if it was a democracy, it was at peace and there were no more Axis powers. These limitations were removed and now even Germany or the Soviet Union can release countries during the war.Moreover, if it no more necessary to control all the provinces in the minimum list in revolt.txt: minimum, extra and claimed provinces are all taken into account and if enough of them are already under the control of the AI nation, it will release that country. No more bundled by fixed events, the AI will be able to release nations as soon as possibleCode:

New misc.txt parameters (“ai” section):* Use new AI release rules – all countries can release puppets even when at war.

1 – Yes, 0 – No* Masters become master of new puppet’s puppets too. 1 – Yes, 0 –NoNew parameters for country creation (revol.txt):* claims = { PROV_ID …} – populates claimedprovinces list* min = X — allows release if at least X provinces of minimum list are

controlled by releaser country. By default (no min_prov entry or min_prov = -1) it is equal to provinces in minimum list.

* min_extra = X — allows release if at least X provinces of extra list are controlled by releaser country. By default (no min_ extra entry) it is 0.

* value = X.X (0.0 – 1.25) – used by the old release model (when no min or min_extra are defined).

Actions and commands with triggersThis means that you can add triggers to actions or even single commands. This is very useful to avoid writing many events to take into account every possible situation.Example 1 — you can have different actions based on the government:action = {

trigger = { government = democracy }command = { … }

}action = {

trigger = { government = communist }command = { … }

}action = {

trigger = { government = nazi }command = { … }

}Example 2 – a command can be executed only if the trigger is satisfied (surrender of France):action = {

command = { type = secedearea which = GER value = «Bourgogne_Champagne» }command = { type = secedearea which = GER value = «Lorraine_Alsace» }command = { type = secedearea which = GER value = «Pas de Calais» }command = { type = secedearea which = GER value = «Paris» }command = { type = secedearea which = GER value = «Normandy» }command = { type = secedearea which = GER value = «Loire» }command = { type = secedearea which = GER value = «Brittany» }command = { trigger = { control = { province = 87 data = ITA } } type = secedeprovince which = ITA value = 87 } # Nicecommand = { trigger = { control = { province = 86 data = ITA } } type = secedeprovince which = ITA value = 86 } # Touloncommand = { trigger = { control = { province = 90 data = ITA } } type = secedeprovince which = ITA value = 90 } # Grenoblecommand = { trigger = { control = { province = 91 data = ITA } } type = secedeprovince which = ITA value = 91 } # Chamberycommand = { trigger = { control = { province = 94 data = ITA } } type = secedeprovince which = ITA value = 94 } # Corsica

}

Events with only one actionThis means that when this option is selected, even if an event has more than one action, only one of the possible actions will be displayed to the player (who therefore will be forced to accept it).The choice of the action is based on the defined AI chance for each action. In this way the player cannot choose the action and is forced to accept whatever happens to him. Example: the effects of the attack on Pearl Harbour can be written as a one_action event, so that neither the Japan nor USA can choose the amount of losses:event = {

id = 1122334455random = nocountry = USAone_action = yes

name = «Attack on Pearl Harbour!»desc = «4062desc»action = {

ai_chance = 10name = «We suffered very heavy losses»…

}action = {

ai_chance = 50name = «We suffered heavy losses»…

}action = {

ai_chance = 15name = «We suffered light losses»…

}action = {

ai_chance = 5name = «We suffered very light losses»…

}}

Events with saved dateIt is possible to save the date in which an event fired and then use it as a trigger in another event, for example to make an event fire at least 100 days after another event fired.Example: the first event will have save_date = yes:event = {

id = 1234567890random = nosave_date = yescountry = GER…

}The second event will have:

trigger = { event = { id = 1234567890 days = 100 }

}

Hints & TipsAbout event AI chances calculation

– Sum of AI chances of all valid actions could be any positive number (removed fixed sum = 100 prerequisite)

– Invalid actions are skipped in AI chances calculations

– Actions without specified AI chances are ignored by the AI if there is at least one valid action with AI chance set

– If no AI chance is set for valid action, random action is chosen from all valid actions (removed increased chance to pick 1st action)

Here are some performance hints that should be taken into account when events are created1. Triggers (no matter if these are for events, actions or commands) should be as simple as possible

and those that are most likely to fail should be first.2. If there is at least one action that has no own triggers it should be on top of the actions — that’s

because action triggers are now considered as continuation of the event trigger and there should be at least one valid action in order for the event to fire. Actions without triggers are considered as always valid (no matter what commands they have in opposite to 1.2/1.3).

3. If all actions has triggers, actions with triggers that are most likely to be true should be on top. This will allow for faster event validation (if main trigger is true and there is at least one valid action the event is good to go).

The following two rules have smaller impact, but should be followed too as a good practice.4. Commands in actions should be arranged so most likely to be valid commands to be on top of the

list.command = { type = addcore which = 300 } #Invalid for Germany. Province #300 is Berlincommand = { type = money value = 10 } # Always valid command — good to have it on top!

5. Command without own triggers should be prioritized in commands list over commands using triggers.

Changes in modding from HOI2 Armageddon

Changes to setting.cfg– New settings in settings.cfg:

1) Display resolution: 0 = do not change (default: 1024×768), 1 = 1152×864, 2 = 1280×768, 3 = 1280×1024, 4 = 1440×900, 5 = 1600×1024, 6 = user specified — see bellow; NOTE: Some of these works only in Windowed mode and other might not work at all; load_user.bmp is used for all new resolutions.2) Screen Width (used if 6 is selected as screen resolution — see above) — For advanced users only! Change on your risk!3) Screen Height (used if 6 is selected as screen resolution — see above) — For advanced users only! Change on your risk!4) Display mode: 0 = do not change (default: full screen), 1 = windowed.5) Start-up movie: 0 = skip it, 1 = play it (default).6) Extra debug logs (savedebug.txt): 0 = disabled (default), 1 = enabled, 2 = enabled + extra map statistics.7) Enable/Disable game sounds: 0 = no sounds, 1 = load sounds (default).8) Enable/Disable unit sprites: 0 = no sprites, 1 = load unit sprites (default).9) Enable/Disable country specific unit and brigade pictures/models: 0 = load only generic pictures/models, 1 = load all available (default).10) Refresh map on resolutions higher then 1024×768 when not on Map mode. Enabling this will decrease game speed a bit (on higher resolutions only!), but resolves some cosmetic problems. 1 = Enabled (default), 0 = Disabled

– Added MODDIR entry to settings.cfg. Mods should be placed in a sub-folder to “Mods” folder. It will be used if no moddir is specified from command prompt. Delete the entry or use “#” as first character to disable it* Mods #MODDIR folder. Default is Mods* Darkest Hour Full # Selected mod (must be a folder into MODDIR)

Changes to misc.txt

Economy– Trades that cannot be canceled by AI now can be canceled by

players only by diplomatic deal that reduces relationships (set in misc.txt).

– Resources from single trades can now be delivered in X days (specified in misc.txt) instead instantly. To avoid exploits cancellation is disabled for non-cancelable trades that will expire in less then days required for delivering resources from

single trade deals. Delay treaty with 1 day for each day treaty is inactive because resource lacking.

– Added optional stockpiles limit (can be set from misc.txt (“economy” section)).

– New trade parameters in misc.txt (“trade” section):* Days between trade offers to a country* Delay in days on each game start/reload before allowing any new trades (AI, auto-trade and Diplomacy) 2 #0* Desired stockpile threshold * Critical stockpile threshold * Desired supply stockpile (for X days)* Desired oil stockpile (for X days)* Days to deliver resources from single trades* Percentage of max supplies that can be produced (using [total IC — IC for CG] as a base) and traded away by auto-trade (0.20)* Percentage of produced money that can be traded away by auto-trade (0.20)* Merge trade deals. 0 = do not merge, 1 = merge all active trade deals except those that cannot be canceled* Manual trade deals (players only, Diplomacy). -1 = Disable manual trade deals, [0 to 100] = Offer value threshold — AI returns 0 accept chance if bellow this* Percentage to over-import when below the desired threshold (0.20)* Stockpile. Values: > 0.0 — extra import (Percentage) on top of what is needed when «Stockpile» option is enabled for that resource, else export all other exceeding resources in order to import more; -1 = export all exceeding resources; -2 = export all exceeding resources and supplies; -3 = export all exceeding resources and money; -4 = export all exceeding resources, supplies and money; 0.30 #0.0* puppets send supplies and money to masters. 0 — disabled; 1 — send only supplies; > 1 -send supplies + money (when more then this value).* Auto-merge trade deals (optional – misc.txt).* Puppets max pool for oil, energy, metal and rare materials — give all above this value to the master. Use negative number to set max pool as percentage of the critical stockpile (for example -1.2 sets the max pool to 1.2 * critical stockpile). -1.2 #1000* Multiplier on puppets critical supply stockpile — all supplies above THIS * puppet’s critical supply stockpile can be sent to Master. Used when the previous setting is above 0.1.5 #1.5

– New modifiers in misc.txt (trade):* Critical oil stockpile threshold (in days). 30 # 1 month* Critical supplies stockpile threshold (in days). 15* Should puppets send supplies and money to masters? 0 — disabled; 1 — send only supplies (NOTE – only for neighboring countries!) when above the desired stockpile; > 1 -send supplies + money (when more then this value).0 # 0. * Puppets max pool for oil, energy, metal and rare materials — give all above this value to the master. 1000 # 1000

– New trade parameters in misc.txt (“diplomacy” section)* Relationship hit for cancel of a trade deal. Not used for trades

between allies, puppet<->master, inactive trades or trades with efficiency less then 45%.* Relationship hit for cancel by players of trade deals that are set as permanent. Not used for trades between allies, puppet<->master, inactive trades or trades with efficiency less then 45%.* Force puppets to join their master’s alliance (creating a new alliance if Master is not already in one). Check alliances each day. 0 – No

– New modifiers in misc.txt (“economy” section):* Peacetime Manpower Multiplier (multiplied on the other)1.0 #1.0* Wartime Manpower Multiplier (multiplied on the other)1.0 #1.0* Daily retired Manpower — percentage of the current MP pool0.0 #0.0* Military Strength to Total IC ratio during Peacetime for AI countries (do not build new units if above this ratio). Use -1.0 to disable this.-1.0 #-1.0* Military Strength to Total IC ratio during Wartime for AI countries (do not build new units if above this ratio). Use -1.0 to disable this.-1.0 #-1.0* Military Strength to Total IC ratio for AI major countries (multiplied on the other).1.0 #1.0 * Stockpile limit. -1 = Disable, else = stockpile for days.-1 # -1* Over stockpile limit daily loss (percentage of the exceeding resource). 1.0 = 100%.0.0 # 0.0

– New modifiers in misc.txt (trade section)* Peacetime modifier on desired oil import (it is a function of the max possible daily consumption which in peacetime is about 10 times more then actual consumption). 0.15 # 1.0* Wartime modifier on desired oil import (it is a function of the max possible daily consumption which in wartime is about 20-50% more then actual consumption). 0.75 # 1.0

– Improved trade effectiveness recalculation for landlocked countries during war (trading through neutral countries or ports) and use closest ports between countries in the calculation. This model can be enabled from misc.txt (“mod” section).

– New modifiers in misc.txt (mod section):* Trade Efficiency calculation system and re-calculation interval selection.

– Extend garrison trigger to support [country = TAG/0/-1/-2/-3] (0 – all countries, current country (country = -1 or no country), enemy countries (country = -2) or allied/friendly countries (country = -3); optional area values: 0 = (no) / 1 = area / 2 = region /3 = (yes) owner area ):* garrison = { [country = TAG/-1/-2/-3] province = [province] type = [air/land/naval] size = [number of divisions] area = [0/1/2/3] }

– New trade system triggers:* stockpile = oil/energy/metal /rare_materials/supplies/money # Returns true if Stockpile is set for the given resource.* import = oil/energy/metal /rare_materials/supplies/money # Returns true if Import is enabled for the given resource.* export = oil/energy/metal /rare_materials/supplies/money # Returns true if Export is enabled for the given resource.* resource_shortage = oil/energy / metal / rare_materials / supplies / money/all # Returns true if there is resource shortage for that resource or for any resource when used with “all”. NOTE: This trigger is not very reliable because it is set correctly on the second game day on every game session.

– Additions to event trigger: event = { id = EVENT_ID days = X } # Check if event with EVENT_ID has fired at least X days ago

– Added (optional) triggers to individual commands or event actions.

Example 1: action = {

trigger = {

NOT = { war = { country = GER country = AUS } }

}…

Example 2: action = {

command = { trigger = { ai = no } type = dissent value = 10 }…}

Changes to Commands– Fixed units stats added by events (example “command = { type =

soft_attack which = infantry value = 10 }” ) – those were not applied to newly built units.

– Added “when = XXX” entry to build_division event command to allow serial builds (default value is 1)

– Fixed a CTD bug with undocumented change country TAG command (command = { type = country which = TAG }) – tech-teams currently researching were not removed from research pool. On click game CTD

– Fixed a bug in change TAG command — only minimum provinces were added to nationalprovinces list. Add provinces from extra list too and also claims to claimedprovinces list.

– Addition to inherit command – added value = 1/0(default) argument. When set country will receive all units and production queue too.- type = inherit which = [tag] [value = 1/0 (default)]

– New commands and country specific modifiers on max stockpiles:* command = { type = stockpile which = (industry / supplies (used for oil too) / all) when = ( war / peace / all ) value = XX }

– New event commands to toggle auto-trade options.* command = { type = auto_trade which = (oil/energy/metal /rare_materials/supplies/money) when = (import/export/stockpile) value = 1/0 }Notes:a. Enabling Stockpile will disable Export and enable Importb. Enabling Export will disable Stockpilec. Disabling Import will disable Stockpile* command = { type = auto_trade_reset } — reset auto-trade options to defaults ( Stockpile disabled, Import and Export enabled for all resources)

– New event command – add/remove tech/trade embargoes:* command = { type = embargo which = TAG where = TAG [value = -2/-1/0/1/2/3] } # which – enforcer; where – subject; value: -2 – clear tech embargo; -1 – clear trade embargo; 0 or no value – clear all embargoes; 1 – enforce trade embargo; 2 – enforce tech embargo; 3 – enforce both trade and tech embargoes; If which =

where then value = 0 (clear all embargoes the country has), -1 (clears all trade embargoes the country has), -2 (clears all tech embargoes the country has)

– New event command – trade:* command = { type = trade which = TAG where = TAG [energy = x] [metal = x] [rare_materials = x] [oil = x] [supplies = x] [money = x] [when = Days duration / default is 100 years] [value = 1/0 – default, can be broken, 1 = not] }

– New event command – change flag/shield/counter name and skin:* command = { type = flag_ext where = TAG [which = “string”] } # where – change flag of TAG; which — add that string to flag/shield/counter name and skin folder; use empty string (“”) or no which to clear.

– New event command – change country name:* command = { type = name where = TAG [which = “string”] } # where – change name of TAG; which — new country name; use empty string (“”) or no which to reset name to default.

– New event command – military_control:* command = { type = military_control which = TAG where = TAG value = 1/0 } # which – controlling country; where – controlled country; value – 1(assume MC), 0 (relinquish MC)

– New event command – secederegion:* command = { type = secederegion which = TAG value = REGION_NAME }

– New event command – secedearea:* command = { type = secedearea which = TAG value = AREA_NAME }

– New event command: type = addclaim which = [prov id] # Add province to country claims

– New event command: type = removeclaim which = [prov id] # Remove province from country claims

– Improved manpowerpool command – added optional [when = 1/[0]] switch. When set 1 add the MP as percentage (value = x.x) of the MP in all controlled national provinces.

– Corrected event command: type = carrier_level value = XXX.X #country-independent bonus to every carrier into a naval combat (Bonus = (OurCarrierLevel — TheirCarrierLevel) / 10). Specified value replaces currently used (it is not additive command). By default this value for all countries is 0.0 (and so the bonus is 0%).

– Extended alliance command (added Axis, Allies, Comintern alliances): type = alliance which = [tag] [where = 1/2/3] # This country enters in an alliance with country = [tag], [-1] for random country, where = 1 – Axis/ 2 – Allies / 3 – Comintern

– Added a new command to change leader of a major alliance: command = { type = alliance_leader [which = TAG] where = 1/2/3 } #sets TAG (or country in question if no which is specified) as the new leader of Axis (where = 1), Allies (where = 2) or Comintern (where = 3)

– Added a new command to change major alliances name, strings, pictures: command = { type = alliance_name which = “XXXXX” where = 1/2/3 } #sets Axis (where = 1), Allies (where = 2) or Comintern (where = 3) name to defined as ALLIANCE_XXXXX in a CSV file, victory string — GAME_END_XXXXX_VICTORY, total victory string — GAME_END_XXXXX_TOTAL, alliance picture used on game quit/scenario end — gfxinterfaceXXXXX_ledg.bmp and background picture used on alliance victory — gfxinterfacefrontendendgame_XXXXX.bmp

Decisions– Decisions concept:

* new modifier in misc.txt (“mod” section): #Enable decisions for players. 0 — Disabled, 1 – Enabled

Basics1. Decisions will be just slightly modified events. 2. They will differ from regular event only by the presence of a new section — decision 3. Decisions will be treated as regular events by the AI. 4. Players will have the power to choose when a decision could be applied.5. Decisions will be hidden until all triggers in decision = { } section is true. 6. Decision will be available for selection when all triggers in trigger = { } section in the event are true.7. Once selected the decisions will fire as regular event via standard event window with all the usual information and actions on it.8. Decisions will be logged in event history as regular events.9. Decisions list will be populated on game start and updated daily.10. Decisions can be enabled/disabled via a new setting in misc.txt («mod» section). 11. New entry in the event : decision_desc = «….», optional decision specific text (used on tool-tips instead of event description).12. New entry in the event : decision_picture = «picture_name.bmp». Optional (there will be a generic picture loaded by default — gfxevent_picsdecisions_empty.bmp), placed on the decision plate13. New entry in the event : decision_trigger = { }. It is optional and will be used instead of trigger = { }. When it is true the decisions will be active for selection. When not present trigger = {} section will be used for that.

UI1. Available decisions will be listed in a new list similar to units/provinces list.2. Decisions list can be selected via a new button (next to Provinces/Army… buttons).3. Inactive decisions will be grayed out.

4. Active decisions can be selected and applied.5. Tool tips:

a) Decision Name = event title b) Decision description = event text c) Triggers — already valid triggers will have a green «+» or «*» as prefix, while inactive will have a red one. d) Action name + effects. e) Decision only text — specified in the event as decision_text = «….». Optional, will be used in place of decision description text on the tool-tip.

6. There will be notification when new decision is added to the list.7. The button should change state to inactive when there are no visible decisions. 8. The button should not be visible when Decisions are disabled from misc.txt.9. Add decision mini-picture — optional, specified in the event (decision_gfx = «picture_name.bmp»)10. Added cancel button to decision’s event panel.

Limitations1. Decisions should not use random elements in any triggers so tool-tips to be correct. EDIT No problem to use random trigger in AI only actions or commands2. Preferable decisions should have only one action. EDIT No problem to have many actions3. Triggers for action(s) should be avoided. EDIT No problem to have triggers4. Triggers for commands should be avoided. EDIT No problem to have triggers5. For better formatting on tool-tips NOT = { trigger1 … triggerX } should be used for individual triggers only NOT = { trigger1 } … NOT = { triggerX } NEW

Notes1. Limitations — these are not stoned yet and most probably they could be ignored when this is needed, but as a rule should be avoided and when used should be extensively tested to ensure correct in-game results.

Other Changes– Changed absolute game years from 1935/1965 to 1/3000– Hide triggered AI_EVENT events on tool-tips (decisions, events). – Unlimited* event actions (* — limited by screen size only): action

= { … }– New event settings:

* save_date = yes / no (default); If set saves date when this event has fired and that date can be used as a trigger by other

events (delay event B to fire at least X days after event A). NOTE!!! Valid event IDs range is 0 to 2,147,483,647!!!* one_action = yes / no (default); If set show just one (random) action to the player. The action is chosen based on AI chances (if present), else it is random using the same rules as for the AI (set in misc.txt).

– Added 8 new event display sizes: paper_400_576.bmp, paper_400_624.bmp, paper_400_672.bmp, paper_400_736.bmp, paper_400_800.bmp, paper_400_864.bmp, paper_400_928.bmp, paper_400_992.bmp

– New event display format: * style = 1 — allow bigger pictures to be used * smaller action buttons

– Added new event style (style = 2 in events):* Header picture 400 x 48 pixels. Generic (news_header.bmp) or country specific (news_header_TAG.bmp)* Display current game date and capital name* Event picture * Event title* Event text* Event Effects – if only one action with less then 5 effects* Event Action buttons

– New country IC modifier — wartime_ic_mod. Works like peacetime_ic_mod, but when at war.

– Enabled unlimited unit models (was fixed to 10). To use just add a new model = {….} entry in the respective txt file in “units” folder. As a bonus this change will decrease loading time and memory usage for unit types that use less then 10 models.

– Added new (optional) parameter for units: max allowed brigades. This overrides default hard-coded values. Add to division files in “dbunitsdivisions”. Format: max_allowed_brigades = X. Currently it is allowed to have up to 5 brigades for naval units and up to 1 brigade for land and air units.

– Added 10 new research types: avionics, munitions, vehicle_engineering, carrier_design, submarine_design, fighter_design, bomber_design, mountain_training, airborne_training, marine_training.

– Added 20 more Research Type (components): * Maneuver Tactics, Blitzkrieg Tactics, Static Defense Tactics and Medicine* rt_user_x (x = 1..16)

– activate_unit_type and deactivate_unit_type effects are now reversible on doctrine abandon.

– Added possibility to define new minister personalities with unique effects, including personalities that could be assigned to all government positions.

– All minister modifiers are moved to a moddable file (dbministersminister_personalities.txt; used also in game checksum calculation). Moddable effects:

* Leader skill* Research time – per tech or for all* Research cost – per tech or for all* Resource production bonuses – oil, energy, metal, rare materials, money* Production bonuses – foreign IC, national IC, reinforce, upgrade, consumer goods, supplies* Units – build time, build cost, attack bonus, defense bonus, morale (org. regain), organization * Brigades — build time, build cost, attack bonus, defense bonus, morale (org. regain), organization * Land unit speed* Belligerence – required for DoW, wartime and peacetime * Transport capacity modifier* Provincial buildings (IC, coastal and land forts, flak, infrastructure, air and naval bases, radar stations, nuclear reactors and rocket test sites) time and cost* Detection – naval, land and convoy* Dissent* Manpower growth – total and non-national * Supply consumption* Spying networks bonus – intelligence (home) and counterintelligence (foreign). Limited up to 5% each!* Intelligence reports accuracy – land/air units, navy/convoys and production/research. Values from -10 to 10* Diplomatic action chances – trade (used also for trade agreements), alliance (offer, join and bring), non-aggression pact, demand territory, ask for military access, sue for peace (insist on demands, white and beg for peace), assume military control and influence* Diplomatic action chances extra modifiers – weak target (Total IC is less then ½), same alignment, opposite alignment, democracies, dictatorships, close government type (difference +/- 2)* Diplomatic action cost for each action. The final value can be no less then 0.0* Diplomatic action cost extra modifiers – weak target (Total IC is less then ½), same alignment, opposite alignment, democracies, dictatorships, close government type (difference +/- 2), national (actions against us: cost modifier = 1 + Sender’s modifier + Target’s modifier). * Convoy transports and escorts build time and cost (using transport ships and destroyers modifiers) * Intelligence mission cost for each mission – 2 modifiers: for sender and for target (Final cost modifier for a mission = 1 + Sender’s cost modifier + Target’s defense cost modifier). The final value can be no less then 0.0* Intelligence funding and maintenance cost modifiers* Intelligence mission chances for each mission – 2 modifiers: for sender and for target (Summary chance for a mission = Sender’s modifier + Target’s defense modifier)

– Minister modifier on stockpiles:* stockpile — modifiers on stockpiles limit* which = industry / supplies (used for oil too) / all (default)
