政体模组制作

Governments were introduced in patch 2.4 and are associated to characters.

They allow to dissociate the type of the capital holding from the actual government, which was problematic before patch 2.4.

For performance reasons governments are only validated when a title is gained/removed, liege relationship changes and religion changes.^[1]

Government group

Government groups are hardcoded. There are 5 groups:

• feudal_governments, for which is_feudal = yes
• republic_governments, for which is_republic = yes
• theocracy_governments, for which is_theocracy = yes
• tribal_governments, for which is_tribal = yes
• nomadic_governments, for which is_nomadic = yes

Government

Here is the list of flags available for governments:^[2]

potential = {
	NOT = {	religion_group = muslim	}
	is_patrician = no
}

 # Will not get the wrong government type penalty for tribes of the same culture
allowed_holdings_culture = {
  TRIBAL​
}

# Gets the wrong religion modifier instead
accepts_liege_governments = { 
  muslim_government​
}

# Tribal vassals of other religions can have their titles revoked for free
free_revoke_on_governments_religion = { 
  tribal_government​
}

free_revoke_on_tiers = { count duke }

ignore_in_vassal_limit_calculation = {
  tribal_government​
}​

Graphics

In order to add custom graphics for a government, some interface modding is required. Create a .gfx file in the interface folder. Inside, you can add a spriteType block for the government icon, as well as five sprites for the five character frame images. All six spriteTypes need to be inside a spriteTypes block, and the names of all these spriteTypes need to end with whatever you put in the government txt file for frame_suffix. You can find the vanilla codes at \interface\generalstuff.gfx.

The actual graphical files are placed inside the gfx\interface folder. All six files will be saved as .dds extension.

For example, if you want to add custom graphics for a secular government, with frame_suffix = _secular :

spriteTypes = {
	
	### character stuff
	spriteType = {
		name = "GFX_charframe_150_secular"
		texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\charframe_150_secular.tga"
		noOfFrames = 6
		allwaystransparent = yes
	}
	spriteType = {
		name = "GFX_charframe_100_secular"
		texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\charframe_100_secular.tga"
		noOfFrames = 6
		allwaystransparent = yes
	}
	spriteType = {
		name = "GFX_charframe_75_secular"
		texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\charframe_75_secular.tga"
		noOfFrames = 6
		allwaystransparent = yes
	}
	spriteType = {
		name = "GFX_charframe_50_secular"
		texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\charframe_50_secular.tga"
		noOfFrames = 6
		allwaystransparent = yes
	}
	spriteType = {
		name = "GFX_charframe_34_secular"
		texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\charframe_34_secular.tga"
		noOfFrames = 6
		allwaystransparent = yes
	}
	
	### government icons
	spriteType = {
		name = "GFX_icon_secular_government"
		texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\government_icon_secular.dds"
	}

}

Localisation

Do not forget to localise your new government. It works similarly to other localisation:

secular_government;Secular;;;;;;;;;;;;;x
secular_government_desc;No religions allowed!;;;;;;;;;;;;;x

Note that the list of features for a government (such as "Can hold Castle, Temple & Fort Holdings without penalties") are automatically generated (based on what you put in the txt file) and placed underneath whatever is in your _government_desc . This means you could leave the _government_desc blank if you do not want to explain what the government form entails.
