Armies now use whichever flank leader has the best siege modifier for determining the leader bonus to sieges, and the best movement speed flank leader for determining movement speed

Non-Jain/Buddhist Monastic Orders get a new rank 1 power which gives a chance for their wards to gain attribute points during their education and upon reaching adulthood a chance to remove a wicked trait or gain a pious one

Buddhists can now use the normal Holy War CB for a cost of 250 Piety
Indian Holy Orders no longer exists at game start:
They can be created through a decision if you hold all of your holy sites, along with 1000 piety, or simply by having 200 piety if the year is 1100 or later
They may be created defensively if several important counties in India fall to another non-Indian religion
Reduced the strength of Indian Holy Orders by about 25%
Indian Holy Orders now have a small amount of War Elephants among their troops
The AI will now be less inclined to use 'Major' CB's (Invasions, Nomad Subjugation) if they wouldn't gain much from doing so
The Nomad Liberation CB can no longer be used on completely empty duchies (no Castle, City or Tribe) in the Steppe region
Nomads can now always choose to convert to the attackers religion through the decision
Silk Road trade posts are no longer destroyed when the county changes hands outside succession
Silk Road trade posts can now be built in your vassals' lands, though the vassal will end up its owner
The Silk Road no longer gets cut off by sieges and occupation, but instead has its value decreased downstream
Added an opinion bonus for turning a blind eye in events ZE.4120, ZE.4100 and ZE.2030
Trade post wars no longer cause counties to be considered "contested", which would prevent the county from being given away and similar

Vassals who don't have at least 5% of the demesne size of their liege will no longer be considered powerful vassal either

When falsely confessing your religion, your non-zealous courtiers have a chance of joining you in falsely converting
Tribal rulers in 867 now start out with some tribal buildings already built
You can no longer use the Split Clan interaction on a province that's currently the target of a war

If you defeat someone in war, they will now get a -10 opinion modifier with you for 10 years
The Visigothic and Suebi culture break up can now only trigger after the year 850.
Muslim Holy Wars now subjugate rulers in the target area, similar to how Muslim Invasions work, with the exception if they are of another Muslim sect where it works like before
Reduced the opinion effects of several Muslim-only traits to avoid opinion inflation
Councillors now have a very slight bias towards "yes" if they have no opinion on the topic. Main area where this has an effect is in regencies where no one has a strong opinion, and thus would always vote "no"
Reduced the revolt risk and general opinion from crushing a rebellion whilst in seclusion and added a timer so it only lasts for two years
Defenders against great holy wars (Crusades, Jihads, reformed pagan great holy wars) will now be capped at 85% occupation warscore to avoid 'Omnes viae Romam ducunt' blitzing.

Nomads can now use a Title Decision to usurp Counties in their subrealms that have Nomad Agitation, in addition to granting you the County this will also remove the agitation
Characters who have been convinced to Straighten Up once will no longer become Decadent again
The default Decadence gain has been made uniform between Tiers, it's now only Realm Size that affects it
Decadence gain has been heavily reduced, but the frequency of the decadent trait has been increased for very large realms - this means that it's no longer a catastrophe to have one uncle that happens to drink on weekends
Decadence effect on positive morale has been slashed in half
The Decadence reduction from title grants has been significantly increased
Only characters in the same realm as the biggest realm size relative can become decadent
Improved caste inheritance so that you're far less likely to lose the correct caste for your government

Owners of either Monks and Mystics or Jade Dragon have access to smith events and new decision.

AI Improvements

Fixed one way AI characters that should have AI could end up with no AI
The AI now actually considers the idea of sending its army to a province if its friends are there or adjacent, even if the province is otherwise a bit boring
The AI now actually realizes that friendly armies standing near a potential target is a good thing even if it doesn't personally own those armies
Once the AI gets to its allies it won't decide that if it can't attach due to supply, it is better for everyone if it just packs its bags and goes home. Instead it will now try to stick close
The AI is now vaguely aware of the existence of tribal vassals when evaluating whether a faction has a real chance of succeeding
The AI now checks to see exactly how many liege levies it'll deny its liege by revolting, rather than going "eh, half my levies I guess?"
The AI now takes tribal vassals into account in most decisions where it considers how strong a potential enemy or ally is, rather than simply pretending they don't exist
Fixed aggression from ambitions having 20 times as big an effect as intended
AI will now also call allies to arms if the estimated answer is a "maybe," to force them into making a decision.
Raiding adventurers now realize once they've been settled that maybe, just maybe, they should consider their new realm their base of army operations, and return armies there when they're not up to anything
AI: Should be snappier to evaluate settlement decisions when needed
If defensive pacts are disabled, the AI will no longer think no one could possibly be a threat to it
AI: Made the Pope less reluctant to accept requests for excommunication
AI (Conclave): Will never pick Heritage or Faith Focuses for children of the right culture and religion
Tributaries are now always aware that their tributary relationship benefits their suzerain more than them, and that they could potentially break free
The AI no longer gets increasingly reckless the more "rational" it is; being enlightened by your intelligence turns out not to make your troops any better
The army AI no longer thinks that just because two destinations are pretty much equally good, it should switch back and forth between the two and thus never get anywhere
The army AI now understands that if it has bothered to start a siege, maybe there was a good reason to do so, so we shouldn't just run off right after just because another destination looks very slightly better
Taught the AI that more loot means a province is a better target for looting
The army looter AI now actually realizes that if all the loot in a province is protected by holdings and the army isn't big enough to siege them, it isn't actually a good loot target
The AI now considers any strong realm nearby a potential threat
Taught vassals how to send alliance offers to other vassals
Informed the AI that we changed how decadence works years ago and it shouldn't give titles to its family members just for the hell of it
Told the AI that if it is the attacker in a war, it *might* be a good idea to actually go attack the defender even if you're targeting their whole realm rather than a specific title within it, and it is a bit of a long walk
The AI has learned how to spell, and no longer look for "soceities" missions when they're actually called "societies" missions. With this newfound ability to spell, the AI is better at identifying mission targets
Taught nomads that if they rise in revolt in response to an attempt to split their clan, maybe they should accept it next time rather than rise again and again
The AI is no longer deathly afraid of going overseas to help its allies just because the enemy is a bit far away
The AI no longer thinks that just because a province is *someone*'s capital, it's a good target; it is now more discerning and only cares if it is the capital of an enemy
The AI is now a bit more aware of just how superior heavy cavalry is to light infantry
The AI now no longer thinks that enemy armies adjacent to other enemy armies are just on vacation, and won't help out if it were to attack
Gave the AI a crash course in how to hand out titles
Gave the AI a crash course in how to transfer vassals in a way that won't make you want to claw your eyes out
The AI now realizes that just because it has occupied everything it borders, it shouldn't skip out on occupying the non-bordering stuff
Taught the AI a few things about how supply works, and why a doomstack isn't always the best way to deal with it while travelling to its destination. The AI is hard of hearing, so it only partially understood this lesson, but partial understanding beats no understanding, right?
Taught the Pope Geography 101, with an emphasis on what "distance from Catholicism" and "size of kingdom" means in the context of Crusades, and why this means that invading India when Egypt is right there might be a bad idea
Informed the AI that just because their ideal commander can't lead troops right now, doesn't mean they should just skip assigning a commander to the flank they wanted to assign that commander to
The AI now realizes that once it is landed, it should base its army in its capital rather than have it stand in the middle of nowhere, taking attrition, just because it happened to spawn in the middle of nowhere many years ago
Betrothed men no longer go "nah, can't fulfill this betrothal" after sending a marriage offer which you accidentally reject. They will also no longer decide to not bother to resend the offer while mumbling "let's see how *they* like being ignored"
Told just-spawned raiding adventurers "hey, your fleet is right over there" so that they wouldn't disband instantly when spawning on an island with no good raid targets, due to thinking that getting across the sea is simply impossible
Members of small reformed religions are now a bit more fond of joining Great Holy Wars and the like
The AI has finally come to the realization that it is allowed to invite its own vassals and courtiers to plots, not just the vassals and courtiers of the target

Made the supply limit tooltip somewhat easier to understand
The unit type tooltip on selected units now show morale as well
Fixed the quick Arrange Marriage action on the character screen occasionally including people that can't actually be married in cases where there's very few good targets
Fixed anyone being able to see the "Desecrated Temple" holding modifier, rather than just devil worshippers
The other main menu buttons are now disabled while the "Load Save" menu is open
Fixed the game rule filter list showing DLCs that are not enabled, resulting in a completely empty group when clicked
Changed the decadence gain tooltips and entries to use 3 decimals
Removed a wayward % sign in the decandence gain tooltip for dynasty members
Persian castles will now have correct graphics
The alert that someone has started raiding your lands now includes the raider's portrait, rather than showing your own portrait twice
Fixed wastelands sometimes being listed when hovering over the "adjacent rivers" icon
Fixed the "completely controls" tooltip (E.G., in the Reform Roman Empire decision) having the line split in the wrong place in German and French
The destroy_artifact effect once more includes the name of the artifact. The scope change will be suppressed if "= yes" is used so that you don't get "ArtifactName: ArtifactName is destroyed..."
Fixed the plot/ambition/focus selection windows sometimes having out of bounds text
Fixed the trait names in the Ruler Designer going slightly out of bounds in some cases in German and Spanish
Fixed secret religions' tooltip showing the religious head for the character's public religion rather than secret religion
Fixed the "heir of wrong religion" alert saying "NO_TEXT_FOR_KEY" rather than the name of your heir
Fixed the "Appoint" button not telling you why you can't replace a character, if the reason was that they used a favor to get appointed
Fixed titles named after dynasties starting with "of" showing as "Kingdom of of Blah" and similar
Fixed characters "rejecting" your marriage offer (despite the marriage persisting) if you accept the same marriage offer from them after sending one
Fixed calling people into war using the "Call Allies" alert changing your position in the alert's list
Names on the map can now cross impassable terrain
Added events telling you why you're at war after refusing title revocation, vassal retraction, clan absorbtion, or clan splitting
Fixed the dynasty tree in some cases flashing briefly when opened
The character screen now updates if the character being viewed gains or loses a spouse or betrothal
Fixed it being possible to select another era right after selecting an era, causing the era picture to be partially faded out
The revolt risk tooltip is now clearer about what characters are causing the revolt risk modifiers
Fixed some languages in some cases having superfluous spaces in title names
The tooltip for building hospitals, forts, and trade posts now tell you how long it would take to build
Made it clearer in the opinion tooltip why specific things are giving the opinion they do. E.G., for Kinslayer it will now say "Kinslayer (same dynasty): -25" for the dynasty-specific opinion, while the general opinion wil just say "Kinslayer: -10"
Fixed call to arms that won't result in prestige cost and/or "alliance breaker" if you decline in some cases claiming they will
Fixed hiring fleet mercs in a province you don't have visibility on not raising the fog of war until the next day
Fixed the job action button still appearing selected after clicking somewhere the action can't be performed

You can now get the offmap power from the holder (ie emperor)
You can now add and clear flags from an offmap power (add_offmap_tmp_flag and clr_offmap_tmp_flag)
You can now check if an offmap power has a flag
either if the flag was added to it ( has_offmap_tmp_flag )
or if the flag was added, as well as if the current status or policy has the flag (has_offmap_flag)
Added loc commands for offmaps: Offmap, Ruler, PrevRuler, Governor, PrevGovernor, GovernorTitle, GetName, GetPolicy, GetPrevPolicy, GetStatus, GetPrevStatus, and GetCurrency
Added set_offmap_holder and set_offmap_name effects
Added has_offmap_name and has_had_offmap_name triggers
Added an "offmap" pre-trigger. Takes "allow" or "only". Any event without this set cannot trigger for offmap rulers
Added an offmap_powers history folder
Added is_offmap_ruler and is_offmap_governor triggers
The trigger is_within_diplomatic_range now works with offmap powers. This is equivalent to testing it against the governor. The same behavior will be used if the governor title or offmap ruler is scoped to
Added trigger has_offmap_currency and effect add_offmap_currency
The "tier" triggers can now take an offmap as the left-hand-side
Added offmap_decision type that are only shown on the offmap screen
Added is_offmap_tag trigger that checks if the current scope represents the given offmap
Added offmap_ruler scope
Added has_offmap_news_enabled trigger

Added portrait_offmap trigger, for checking what offmap power a character rules for portrait purposes

Split the defines CONTESTED_TITLE_OCCUPIED_WARSCORE_BONUS and CONTESTED_TITLE_OCCUPIED_WARSCORE_BONUS_INDEP into attacker and defender version
Split the 'ticking_war_score_multiplier' in Casus Belli scripts into 'att_ticking_war_score_multiplier' and 'def_ticking_war_score_multiplier'
Added a new define for the effect of Fort Level on defender morale in sieges: FORT_LEVEL_MORALE_LOSS_REDUCTION_MULT
Fixed a number of scopes not getting localised as effects, only as triggers
error.log will now usually tell you if you've saved a map file in the wrong format
The game will now crash slightly earlier if the province map is the wrong size (not a multiple of 64), making the issue easier to identify
Cultures can now have "dynasty_name_first = yes" which puts the dynasty name before the personal name
Added a "holding_types" folder in common. This can be used to define additional triggers for building each holding type
The scaled_wealth trigger now supports "min" and "max" just like the scaled_wealth effect
Fixed "effect" in history not being seeded, meaning that all effects with a random component would always produce the exact same result. Now the result will be properly randomized
Build cost and build time modifiers now apply to forts, trade posts, and hospitals too. Note that there are still no type-specific modifiers for these three holdings
on_heresy_takeover no longer creates a dummy character for the religion scope, but instead uses an actual religion scope
"Religion" in loc while already in a religion will just return the same religion, to ensure that any loc written based on some on-actions using characters as makeshift religion scopes continue to work. The same has been done for "Culture" in culture scopes
Most effects and triggers that take a number can now take a variable name instead, and will grab the variable from the current scope. E.G., "wealth = test_variable"
gain_effect now fires in all cases (except history and death) for job titles and minor titles, including when added through script
lose_effect or retire_effect now fires in all cases (except history and death) for job titles and minor titles. Being given a new job title will fire retire_effect on the old title, and gain_effect on the new title
Fixed resigning as a commander firing lose_effect rather than retire_effect
Added death_effect for job titles and minor titles, which fires when a character dies while holding the job/minor title
Made the following console commands that before were only available to devs and beta testers available to everyone: guibounds, noai, join_society, leave_society, society_rank_up/down, society_currency, set_society_grandmaster, get_all_artifacts, activate_artifacts
Added the console command "province_religion" or ("prov_rel") to change the religion of a province. Syntax is: "province_religion <province> <religion>"
Targeted decisions now support having a 3rd party character or artifact
Now possible to store variables in the same manner as event targets; any variable starting with "local_" will work this way, meaning it'll persist as long as the event chain does, but not be accessible outside it
Uploading mods to Steam is no longer limited to 50MB
Added the following targeted decision filters: court_including_me, home_court_including_me, dynasty_including_me, all_including_me, society_including_me, realm_including_me, sub_realm_including_me
The regular versions of the above now consistently exclude the character themselves; in some cases before this restriction only applied if the AI was taking the decision
Added max_defender_occupation_score and max_attacker_occupation_score modifiers for casus belli types
Added documentation for the "aggression" parameter for governments
Added a become_secret_heretic effect
Added TRADE_ROUTE_SIEGE_MULTIPLIER and TRADE_ROUTE_OCCUPATION_MULTIPLIER defines
Made the tributary system moddable and modular. You can now add new tributary types defining:
when and if the tributary relation breaks
what CBs the tributaries can use against their suzerain
The allowed_to_target_suzerains CB parameter no longer has any effect, as the above replaces it
if tributaries can unite together against their suzerain
if tributaries can fight against each other
if the suzerain can call their tributaries to arms, and if the tributaries are forced to join
if the tributaries can call their suzerain to their defense, and if the suzerain is forced to join
how much of what is paid by the tributary to the suzerain
What icon to use for the diplomatic relation
What modifiers to give the tributary
The tributary system now functions even if Horse Lords isn't enabled, though the CBs and the like are still limited by DLC; this means you can now make your own tributary systems even without your mod's users having HL
You can now use the is_tributary trigger to check for a specific type, and a specific suzerain
You can now use custom loc in the is_tributary trigger
The set_tribute_suzerain now takes a "type" parameter, specifying the type. If none is specified, "default" is used
Added set_trade_route_base_value and set_trade_route_value_multiplier effects
Provinces with several trade routes will now show the presence and effect of all of them in their tooltip
Effect and trigger scope changes now have an optional "show_scope_change" parameter. If set to "no", the scope change won't be shown in the tooltip. It'll be shown as just "effect description" rather than "scope change: effect description". This functionality isn't supported by any/random scopes.
Added hostages_block_cb parameter for CBs
Variables that haven't been set yet now work in localisation; they'll show "0" rather than simply being blank. "GetName" works as well. So [global_test.GetName] will return 0 for GetValue, and the "global_test" localisation for GetName
Fixed the is_interested_in_society trigger not localising properly if negated, and not ending with a linebreak
Added interested_in_society_of_character trigger
Fixed empty "OR" triggers in some cases crashing the game on launch
show_as_title = yes for minor titles now works even if the character has no titles
Fixed a crash that could happen when a selectable object overlapped with an impassable province
Fixed setting someone's employer on the same date that employer becomes landed not working properly
Fixed capital changes in some cases failing if the county holder became holder on the same day as the capital change
Added as_if_allied_to parameter for gain_settlements_under_title, vassalize_or_take_under_title, subjugate_or_take_under_title, and vassalize_or_take_under_title_destroy_duchies. This ensures that land occupied by people in that character's war against the title's holder can be taken
Castes can now be enabled for individual religions rather than being hardcoded to the Indian group. This is done using the "castes" parameter
Removed various hardcoding associated with the Hindu religion. This is now connected to the "caste_opinions" parameter instead
The subjugation opinion is no longer applied when using vassalize_or_take_under_title, just subjugate_or_take_under_title
Added event pretrigger for Game Book
Decisions can now have a "_desc_extra" localisation key defined. This will be shown after the Requirements section in its tooltip
Added "conditional_tooltip"; defines when a given piece of trigger script should be displayed. Its contents are only evaluated if it is displayed
Added government parameters gets_religion_opinion_penalties, gives_religion_opinion_penalties, and vassal_government_opinion_penalties. See _governments.info for documentation
Added title parameters can_be_claimed and can_be_usurped. See 00_landed_titles.info for documentation
Added "offmap_power" government parameters, which is used for the new succ_offmap_succession law
You can now use "extended" (bracket-based) localization in Artifact scopes:
[GetName] will display the name
[Owner] will rescope to the current owner of the artifact
[OriginalOwner] will rescope to the original owner of the artifact
There is now an AI exclusion pretrigger in decision "ai = no" that can be used to avoid decisions being considered by the AI at all
Removed the "coalition_threat" CB parameter as it had nothing to do with coalitions
Fixed rulers in some cases being considered to have no primary holding on the day of their death when going backwards in history
Added console commands "print_global_flags" (aka "pgf") and "print_global_variables" (aka "print_global_vars" and "pgv"). They print whatever they're named after
"character_info" aliased to "debug_mode" since it is used by more than just character to display debug info
The Offmap Powers view will now display flags and variables that are set for offmap powers, including those of the title holders
Added "attrition" character modifier. This will reduce/increase the attrition suffered by the army they command. It is capped at -99%
Added "army_reinforce_rate" character modifier. This will make the army the character commands reinforce faster. Affects retinues and horde units as well, not just levies. Does not affect the reinforcement of the settlement itself. Cannot go below 0
Added "days_of_supply" character modifier. This modifies the number of days of supply of the army the character commands by an absolute number of days. Days of supply cannot go below 1
Added command modifiers phase_skirmish_attack, phase_pursue_attack, phase_melee_attack, phase_skirmish_defense, phase_pursue_defense, and phase_melee_defense
Added scopes any_neighbor_independent_ruler and random_neighbor_independent_ruler. A "neighbor independent ruler" is a ruler that neighbors the realm you're in (E.G., the HRE if you're a count in the HRE)
Added "demesne_size_compared_to_limit" trigger. For example, "demesne_size_compared_to_limit < 0.5" will check if someone is below 50% of their demesne limit
Added "multiplicative_trade_post_income_modifier" holding modifier
Added "can_create_empires" government parameter (can_create_kingdoms already exists)
Added "extra_ai_eval_troops" title parameter. See 00_landed_titles.info for documentation
Added "relative_realm_size" trigger. For example, relative_realm_size = { who = liege size > 0.2 } checks that your realm size is at least 20% of your liege's
Strings that are too long (above 1023 characters) will no longer crash the game, though they should still be avoided as they simply don't work beyond 1023 characters. This should also solve crashes involving mismatched quote signs
Strings that are too long now get logged in error.log
The game will no longer crash if more than 32767 flags (E.G., set_character_flag) are used. New limit is 2^32, which you will run out of memory long before reaching
Using export_to_variable on a dead character will no longer crash the game
has_coa_on_barony_only can now be set to yes/no on individual religions rather than just groups. This will override whatever has been set for the group
The "give_title" console command now gives more feedback if something is wrong with the parameters
Absolutely all tooltips now support custom loc. Generally, "Root" will be the player
Most text directly related to religion (E.G., religion name, description, holy war name) now provide the religion itself for custom loc purposes
Added a "RelHead" promotion for religion loc, meaning you can now for example name a religion "Cult of [RelHead.GetFirstName]"
Added optional generate_tooltip parameter for hidden effects. If set to "no", the game won't generate the tooltip at all. Note that if event targets are set in the hidden effect, this will break them in tooltips. It may also break randomization, so only ever use it if you have a really compelling reason to do so
Added 'add_modifier' and 'remove_modifier' console commands (for Character Modifiers.)
Added 'decision' console command, which ignores the trigger conditions
Stewardship no longer applies a debuff when below 5; 0 is its baseline now like all the other stats
Added 'realm_levies_plus_allies' as an exportable value for the 'export_to_variable' effect.
Added a Define for Looter army maintenance cost (LOOTER_ARMY_MAINT_MULT)
random_list chances below 1% but above 0% will now use 2 decimals rather than 0
The game will now log invalid tributary relationships in history (E.G., someone being a tributary of a title with no holder)
Fixed looting for raiding adventurers not of a religion/culture/government that allows raiding not working
If the flag "always_show_in_marriage_selection" is set on a character, they will bypass most conditions to be shown in the marriage selection view. Note that this does *not* allow otherwise illegal marriages, just ensures they show up in the listing
Fixed observing unplayable characters instantly booting you back to regular observe mode
headgear_that_hides_hair now bases itself on the portraitType of the headgear rather than the character. This means that if someone changes culture and thus gets headgear that should hide their hair, it actually will
OR and AND triggers now don't show "all/one of the following..." if there's only a single trigger within them
Fixed it being possible for landed title adjectives in some edge cases ending up empty
Added the old religion to FROM scope 'in on_county_religion_change'
Added trigger 'had_artifact_flag'
Added trigger 'artifact' (to compare two artifact scopes)
Added trigger 'climate'
Fixed the "completely_controls" trigger not considering empty non-wasteland provinces
Fixed scoping to event targets in effects not being properly localised, thus showing just a colon with no name before it
Added "ai_check_interval" parameter for decisions. This determines how rarely the AI checks a given decision, and can be useful for performance-heavy decisions that don't need to be checked often. See 00_decisions.info for documentation
Added a "shares_realm_border_with" trigger. Checks if any province in your realm (everything under your titles) borders any province in their realm
Added COALITION_THREAT_MAX_DISTANCE define. Independent AIs will consider independent rulers within this range to be threats if they're strong enough (COALITION_SCARY_TROOP_STRENGTH_THREAT_RATIO)
"Added COURTIER_EVENT_PROCESS_OFFSET define, which determines how often courtiers check MTTH events. Set to 50, as compared to 20 for rulers". This changelog entry from 2.7 now actually has an effect
Added num_of_society_members trigger. Scope must be a character or society. Returns true if the society has at least this many members. Also supports <, <=, ==, and >=
A lot of error messages that previously only showed in the internal beta .exe now get logged at all times
Added "hire_range" parameter for mercenary titles. If set, this overrides the MERCENARY_HIRE_DISTANCE_THRESHOLD define for that specific mercenary
Added "can_demand_religious_conversion" government parameter. Decides whether people with the government can use the Demand Religious Conversion interaction. Defaults to yes
create_character now supports "dynasty = actually_culture" which picks a random dynasty name from the culture if there's no unused static dynasty to use, rather than just resorting to a random holding in the world (what "dynasty = culture" does)
Now possible to scope to timed modifiers in localisation. For example, if ROOT is a character, [Root.modifier_name.GetExpiryDate] would show the expiry date of the modifier. If no such modifier is present, nothing gets shown. Also supports "GetName"
random_direct_de_jure_vassal_title now exists. Works like any_direct_de_jure_vassal_title, except picks one at random
Fixed start_date and current_date checking that the days are equal rather than equal or greater
All numerical triggers now support comparison operators (>=, <=, <, >, and ==) with a few exceptions: tier triggers, among_most_powerful_vassals. These exceptions are due to operation triggers breaking existing behavior (E.G., "tier = duke" isn't equivalent to "tier >= duke", which the comparison operators assume)
Added "unsafe_destroy_artifact" effect, which can destroy indestructible artifacts
Artifact localisation (E.G., name and desc) now provides the artifact as From
The artifact activation and gift triggers now provide the artifact as From
Added support for "else_if" and "else". If one of these is placed after an "if" or "else_if", it will be executed if the "if"/"else_if" limit returns false. Example:

if = { limit = { something = yes } do_something = yes } else_if = { limit = { something_else = yes } do_something_else = yes } else = { do_another_thing = yes }

Added trigger "artifact_can_be_gifted_to = ROOT", which checks if the artifact currently scoped to can be gifted to the target character
Now possible to specify "sound = no" for death reasons, which will prevent killing someone with that reason causing a death sound
Fixed FROMFROM (the holding title) not always being available in the building trigger
Fixed whatever character is FROM getting included in event option portrait lists if you scope to something that isn't a character
Improved the error messages for the reload_texture command, and made it more forgiving when it comes to "/" vs. "\\" and ".dds" vs. ".tga". Also fixed it in some cases crashing. Generally, simply copying the path specified in the .gfx file should work
Added COST_COMBAT_RATING define for specifying the cost of combat rating in the ruler designer
Added unsafe_impregnate and unsafe_impregnate_cuckoo effects. These can impregnate someone who is already pregnant, while the two old effects are no longer able to do so
Added a fail_trigger_effect field for events. This effect is triggered if script attempts to trigger an event, but the trigger isn't fulfilled. Useful for handling things like one character in a chain dying for unrelated reasons partway through the chain
Fixed not all parts of the society rank tooltip having the appropriate scopes set
spawn_unit can now take "province = closest_to_capital", which will spawn as close to the character's capital as possible
The "debug_mode" console command (AKA "charinfo") will now also show extra information about titles
The hardcoded opinion penalty for being imprisoned now references "opinion_imprisoned" rather than "opinion_arrest_attempt"
The "damage_unit" effect can now take negative numbers in order to heal units instead
Added "is_artifact_equipped" trigger, which can be used in an artifact scope
Insults and compliments now provide the giver and receiver in localisation. The giver is FROM, while the receiver is ROOT
The game will now log titles and provinces for which no localisation exists
The "set_name" effect now works on artifacts (before only worked on characters, titles, and provinces)
The "set_name" effect can now take a scope of the same type as the thing being renamed. E.G., if you're renaming a character, "set_name = ROOT" will work if ROOT is also a character, and take their name. Note that for artifacts this will use the name *after* processing localisation, so all custom loc will become static upon doing so
Custom loc is now resolved when using the "set_name" effect, so something like 'set_name = "[This.Religion.GetRandomEvilGodName]"' will work
Fixed resetting title names with "set_name" not causing it to take its cultural name
The "create_title" effect can now take "short_name = yes". This will suppress "Empire of" and similar from the name of the title, just like it does when defining a static landed title
Added define SEND_ARTIFACT_GREED_MULT
If you set the character flag "no_court_invites" on someone, they now become impossible to invite to court. Useful for characters you want to ensure stay in a specific court
Added on actions on_eu4_conversion_start and on_eu4_conversion_done. Can be used to prepare the gamestate for EU4 conversion, then restore the original state
Added on_tyranny_gained and on_tyranny_gained_tyrant_only on-actions
When debug_mode (AKA charinfo) is active, hovering over an event will now provide a list of all event targets set, and what each scope corresponds to
Added "log_scopes" effect, which records the above information in game.log. Like the "log" effect, only logs if the game is started with the "-scriptlog" parameter
Added "GetScopes" property for scopes in loc. This will show the same info as "log_scopes". Note that it only works in scopes; once you've promoted to a specific entity (E.G., a character), scope properties are unavailable
Fixed the war scope not always being available in CB script when you'd expect it to be (E.G., after scoping to "ROOT")
Fixed negative society currency gains not showing up in the gain tooltip
Added the following relation triggers:
- is_parent_of = ROOT
- is_cousin_of = ROOT
- is_aunt_uncle_of = ROOT
- is_nibling_of = ROOT - Checks niece/nephew
- is_grandparent_of = ROOT
- is_grandchild_of = ROOT
- is_descendant_of = ROOT - Checks if the scoped character descends from the ROOT. No limit on how far removed. Expensive, so use with care. Limited to 16 generations of removal for performance reasons
- is_ancestor_of = ROOT - Checks if ROOT descends from the scoped character. No limit on how far removed. Expensive, so use with care. Limited to 16 generations of removal for performance reasons
set_preferred_capital now works on static titles as well, not just dynamic ones
Added "capital" title history effect, which sets the preferred capital of the title
"show_portrait" can now take a scope or similar. E.G., "show_portrait = ROOT" will show ROOT, while "show_portrait = offmap_china" will show the emperor of China. The right-hand-side can be a scope, a title, or an offmap power
Added a "portrait" parameter to events, which determines which character is shown in the upper-right corner. For example "portrait = offmap_china" will cause the Chinese Emperor to be shown
Added trade_route_control trigger. Example:

trade_route_control = {
trade_route = silk_road # What trade route to check against
value > 0.1 # What percentage needs to be owned. Takes comparison operators
type = trade_post_locations # What to compare. Takes wealth, provinces, trade_posts, and trade_post_locations. The latter two are restricted by the trade post trigger in the trade route definition. Defaults to wealth if not set
indirectly_owned = no # Whether to include provinces in one's sub-realm that are owned by vassals. Defaults to yes if not set
}

Added alias for vassal_or_below trigger called liege_or_above_of.
Added alias for liege_or_above trigger called vassal_or_below_of.
Added decision filters independent_rulers and independent_rulers_including_me
Added decision filter close_relatives. Includes children, grandchildren, parents, siblings, and niblings
The "female" paramenter in create_character can now take "random" or a number between 0 and 100 in order to get a random chance of the person being a woman. E.G., "female = 42"
Added any_pupil and random_pupil scopes. Scopes to characters you're educating
monthly_character_prestige and liege_prestige (and the piety versions) now work for forts and trade posts as well
Forts and trade posts can now give tech spread bonuses
pdx_tooltip and pdx_tooltip_delayed now work in far more places than before
Fixed religious names not checking the cultural base name in create_character, unlike character birth
Fixed the spouses of characters who don't get their title (E.G., "Count") in their name getting the title in their name
Virtually anything that works as a scope on the left-hand-side (E.G., "educator = {") now works as a scope on the right-hand-side (E.G., "= educator") for triggers and effects that support more than just relative scoping (ROOT, FROM, etc. and event targets)
Now possible to scope to religions, cultures, and their groups. E.G., "norse = {". Note that for the groups, this simply scopes to the first culture/religion in the group, not the actual group itself
Added "can_use_cb" trigger, which checks everything in the CB itself, plus the extra hardcoded restrictions on regular war declarations. Basically, checks if the war would show up and be usable from the UI. Example:

can_use_cb = {
target = d_mecklemburg # What character to target. Can also take titles
casus_belli = religious # What CB to use
thirdparty_title = d_mecklemburg # What title to target, if relevant
#thirdparty = FROM # What character to declare on the behalf of, if relevant
}

Ensured that effects work even if some of the systems they rely on haven't loaded yet when they're first read. This was already the case for triggers
Added is_or_was_offmap_power_ruler trigger
Fixed a bunch of decision related triggers having their tooltip logic inverted (E.G., saying "Can NOT take decision" when it should say "Can take decision")
Added parameters attacker_unoccupied_warscore and defender_unoccupied_warscore. See 00_cb_types.txt for documentation
Fixed plot start date not being saved, meaning that the "plot_months" trigger would be wrong after saving and loading
Fixed the destroy_artifact effect causing the game to crash on launch if used somewhere where the artifact database has yet to be initialized
Diplomatic interaction on-action events now provide the starting scope (normally, the actor) as FROMFROM so that you have a way to get back to the actor after scoping to someone else
The "while" effect now supports the "count" parameter, which determines how many times it loops. E.G., "count = 10" means it will loop until the limit is no longer met, or it has been executed 10 times, whichever happens first
Fixed scope changes sometimes resulting in improper seeding. E.G., if you scoped to FROM inside any_realm_title, any randomness would be identical
Fixed casus belli effect execution not being seeded, so the same randomness would always occur if conditions were similar enough
Fixed the "is_lowborn" trigger checking the opposite of what it should; "is_lowborn = yes" used to check that you're part of a dynasty rather than not part of one
Added any_tributary and random_tributary scopes
Added player_heir scope, which scopes to the character shown on your character sheet rather than whoever is heir to your primary title
The on_war_ended on-actions now provide the war in question, meaing that war triggers and effects like "using_cb" and "any_attacker" will work, similarly to how they work in CBs
create_title will now pick a color at random if there's no base title, rather than always making the map color white
Added set_description effect, which changes the description of an artifact to the given string/loc key
Added can_inherit government parameter. Defaults to yes. If set to no, characters with this government cannot inherit titles
The following opinion modifiers now work in all modifiers: rel_head_opinion, child_opinion, dynasty_opinion, female_dynasty_opinion, male_dynasty_opinion
In effect fields custom_tooltip will now always properly hide the tooltip of nested effects.
Added "window" attribute for events, which specifies the name of a GUI window to use, meaning an event can be given virtually any look. Specifying the "background" parameter will also apply that GFX name + "_option" to the option buttons if GFX by that name exists
Fixed clear_delayed_event not working on provinces if the event in question is a narrative_event or similar rather than explicitly a province event
Having fewer than 7 baronies defined for a county should no longer risk crashing the game
Added max_attacker_battle_score and max_defender_battle_score CB parameters, which override the relevant define if set
The "government" trigger can now also take a scope as its right-hand-side. E.G., "government = ROOT" or "government = k_norway". It will compare to the government of the character the scope corresponds to
Added capturing_defender_is_complete_victory and capturing_attacker_is_complete_victory CB parameters. Default to "yes". If set to "no", capturing the defender/attacker is not automatic victory, but instead gives CAPTURED_HEIR_WAR_SCORE warscore
Added "display_on_map" parameter to job actions, which can be used to override the color of the job action when assigning it, and providing a tooltip, based on a trigger. As many such sections can be added as desired; the first that evaluates to true will be used. If none are defined, or if none evaluate true, the default green color is used. The special colors are only used if the job action itself can be used. The tooltip will be run through custom loc with the same scopes as the trigger. Example:

display_on_map = {
tooltip = JOB_PROSELYTIZE_DIFFERENT_RELIGION # Key of the loc to add to the tooltip
trigger = { # Trigger for when this should happen. Same scopes as the allow/potential for the job action itself
NOT = { religion = FROM }
}
color = { 255 0 0 } # What color to use on the map
}

Added logging at game start if there are living characters who lack a culture or religion
Fixed not all event targets working with custom loc (E.G., artifacts)
All notifications now have custom loc scope available. Those that didn't use to now have FROM as the "sender" of the notification, and ROOT as the player
Added government parameters can_grant_kingdoms_and_empires_to_other_government_group and can_be_granted_kingdoms_and_empires_by_other_government_group for governments. Changed the defaults so that by default governments can grant within a group, and receive from anyone
Added AI flags "ai_flag_refuse_marriage" and "ai_flag_refuse_concubinage". If set, the AI will never marry the character off or accept them being made into a concubine, except if they're the person the character is getting married to/made consort of
Added logging for buildings that are built while their pre-requisites or the building they upgrade from is missing
Added artifact_age and has_known_creation_date triggers
Added set_looter_hostility_days effect, which can be used to force a specific time of looter hostility, including 0 in order to remove looter hostility
Added "debug_events" console command. After running this, the game will keep track of how many times each event has fired. This can be printed to the game folder (wherever the CK2 .exe is) using "debug_dumpevents"
Fixed scoping in custom loc working very inconsistently with script scoping at times. Most importantly, this means that "Root" will no longer be undefined after scoping to something else, so something like "From.GetRootRelation" should now always work
Fixed indentation in random_list tooltips not working properly if there's more than one effect within a single entry
Fixed provinces getting duplicate or no names in cases where "external" provinces are defined in any spot other than dead last in the province list

Ensured that a fake war exists for tooltip purposes before declaring a war, so you can scope to the attacker and defender in the tooltips
Fixed the graphical_culture trigger crashing the game if an invalid graphical culture was used
Added effect_even_if_dead history effect for characters. Will be run even after the character's death, unlike "effect"
Fixed the "new_character" scope in some cases not persisting when saving and reloading
Fixed missing newline at end of destroy_tradepost, destroy_fort, and destroy_hospital effect
random_list entries below 0 due to modifiers are now simply counted as 0 rather than a negative number
Fixed it being possible for the artifact name in the "Gift Artifact" interaction to go out of bounds for very long artifact names
Including a mesh that doesn't exist in a .GFX file should no longer crash the game. Means that for example reapers_due_dlc.gfx can be modded without crashing the game for users without The Reaper's Due
The opening text for diplomatic events now supports custom loc, with Root being the receiver and From being the sender
Ensured no longer possible governments cannot persist for more than a month after invalidation (E.G., due to changed culture)
set_government_type now forces immediate government validation after setting the government. This essentially means the character must meet the potential for the government you set
Tech point bonuses now work in all holding types, not just normal holdings and hospitals
The "is_married" pre-trigger now only returns true if the character has a living spouse. Before also returned true if spouse was dead

Fixed the on-start capital validation overriding the current capital for people who don't have a preferred capital
Fixed force_host normally resulting in the host simply resetting to one's liege/own court a day later
The secret_religious_cult scope now works even if the character does not have a secret religion; it'll now always refer to their true religion instead (secret religion if they have one, otherwise public religion)
Added could_be_parent_of trigger, which checks if the scoped character is in the right age range to be the parent of the target character. This means that they're at least AGE_OF_MARRIAGE_MALE years older, and at most MAX_CHILD_BIRTH_AGE years older if female (for immortal characters, as long as they became immortal before this age they bypass the check). It also checks that they didn't die before the birth date of the target
Fixed a number of scopes (one example: the target of factions) being unlocalized
Fixed a missing linebreak in the betrothal and marriage interaction tooltips

Added join_crusade_if_bordering_hostile parameter for religions. If set to yes, the AI won't refrain from joining a crusade simply because it borders a heathen/heretic realm
