Update 1.9.1 Changelog
[h2]Expansion Features[/h2]
- Tours and Tournaments: Added a new set of clothing for Western High Nobility (male & female)
[h2]Free Features[/h2]
- Added "Points of Interest" to the travel system, which rewards you for going out of your way to visit interesting places around the world. Examples include Special Buildings, Kingdom/Empire Capitals, and Natural Wonders.
- Added foreboding events, which make characters eligible to receive awful harm or death down the line
- Added incapability harm events, which risk characters being forcibly made incapable after receiving a suitable foreboding event
- Added death harm events, which risk characters dying before their time after receiving a suitable foreboding event
- Added commander harm events, which puts characters commanding armies at risk of dying for reasons outside of combat (especially if they don't have a suitable commander trait for the terrain they're in, or are unhealthy
- with how much health they need to be "healthy" going up as they age)
- Added game rule for controlling the frequency of harm events: turn them down, turn them off, turn them up, turn them up but specifically at interesting characters, or turn them up and turn them up extra specifically at interesting characters
- Added game rule for controlling targeting of harm events: just the AI, just the player, or both
- Added a decision for Jewish cultural heads to adopt Hebrew as their culture's language
- Converted the Kuzarite random event for faith reformation into a full "Break with the Old Ways" decision
- Jewish faiths now have a Halakha authority main doctrine with 4 types: Rabbinic, Toraic, Kohenimic, Samaritan
[h2]Balance[/h2]
- Contemplative Pilgrimages now give 25% bonus Piety instead of 50%
- Dynamic Gold Values used in Events, Decisions, and other content now have Max Caps based on Era. This means that, for example, the 'major gold value' will not cap out at 500 gold in the mid-late game where such a sum of gold could be trivial. This makes rulers with very high incomes both pay and receive relevant sums of gold in the mid-late game. The new values are: 25% less in Tribal era, unchanged in Early Medieval, 50% higher in High Medieval, and 300% in Late Medieval.
- Grand Wedding Activity Option Prestige Rewards have been reduced by 25%
- If a vassal acceptance of Tour demands now consider more factors, such as loyal/disloyal traits, opinion, honor, greed, etc.
- Characters involved in the Iberian Struggle are now allowed to take the Hostility Ending if they completely control Iberia, and their primary title is at least a Kingdom they held for 5 years or more. This can be done regardless of the current phase.
- Increased tyranny incurred from refusing Pay Homage by 1 to 2, and thus Vassal Opinion lost to 1
- It's now valid to petition your liege for a fellow vassals capital title
- Lowered Reward Prestige from Tours by 50%
- Taxation Tours now give 50% less Reward Prestige, on top of the new 50% reduction
- Lowered average Renown gain from Tours
- Lowered the chance of becoming a drunkard in ep2_wedding.3400 significantly
- Lowered the frequency of the 'Feral Child' event and made the cooldown on getting it again much higher
- Made certain events where you get to recruit knights appear in more Locales during Tournaments
- Players with the trusting trait will no longer give out hooks via feast APA's, as there is no way of avoiding them
- Rebalanced the modifiers gained in tour_travel.3010 so that you don't get fooled by the green/red colors
- Reduced the Vassal opinion gain from Number of Courses in Feasts (roughly -5 on each level)
- Reduced the frequency of the 'A-pope-riate Clothing' Event and made the cooldown longer
- Slashed Siege % Modifiers from Buildings in half, to reduce the speed of late-game sieges somewhat
- Slightly reduced the Prestige gain from Dish complexity in Feasts (25%)
- The Era cost increase for activity costs is now much sharper; unchanged in Tribal & Early Feudal, 50% higher in High Medieval, and 300% higher in Late Medieval
- The Pilgrimage Piety bonus from the Humble or Ceremonial Options is now 100 instead of 250
- The Pilgrimage Piety bonus from the Throng Option is now 250 instead of 500
- There are now five Tournament Prize options; simple, decent, fine, good, and splendid, which control the rarity of artifacts given out by the tournament. The higher settings now cost a significant amount of gold, and Illustrious artifacts can only be gotten if one of the latter two options are chosen.
- Tour Stop costs are now scaled in cost per era, as all other Activity costs
- Tribal rulers can no longer go on Taxation Tours (other Tour Types are fine)
- Windmills, Watermills, and Caravanserai Buildings can now only be constructed in County Capitals to avoid insane Development growth stacking
- Windmills, Watermills, and Carvanserai can now be built in Counties where any County Province matches their terrain requirements
- Workshops now give slightly less Siege Speed %
- You can now petition your liege for claims held by subvassals
- Reduced the general opinion thresholds required for characters to consider cheating to low positives or early negatives for somewhat honorable characters, added a second tier of honor checks for dishonorable characters so that they'll consider cheating at close to (but still a little reduced from) the old higher opinion thresholds, drastically lowered the threshold for any character to cheat regardless of honor in the high minuses
- Reduced the health penalty on the incapable trait so that we can all spend a little longer enjoying the care of our regents :)
[h2]AI[/h2]
- The AI will no longer send children to university unless they're very rich
- The AI will now very often revoke titles from traitorous vassals with less than 0 opinion of them that they have in their prison, unless they are very compassionate, non-greedy, and honorable
