This page is about how to modify existing and how to create new Policies.
Policies are defined at "common/policies/xxx.txt".
Data Structure[編輯 | 編輯原始碼]
- potential - A block of Conditions to determine is an empire able to see this policy. If an empire can't see a policy, it won't have any of its options active. (Country scope)
- allow - A block of Conditions to determine is an empire able to change this policy. Vanilla use this to prevent switching diplomatic stance and war philosophy during a war. (Country scope)
- option - An instance that adds an option to this policy. Multiple allowed. A policy should have at least one valid option for each empire.
- name - A localisation key that determines the name and description of this option.
- icon - A reference to a GFX entry that determines the icon of this option. Only diplomatic stance has this. Other policy options will never have their icons displayed.
- potential & valid - Blocks of Conditions to determine is an empire able to see / choose this option. If either is rendered false while the empire have this option active, the empire will be forced out of it and switched to a valid choice of highest
ai_weight
, even for players. (Country scope)
- policy_flags = { flag_xxx flag_yyy } - A list of strings to be checked by the condition
has_policy_flag
. A policy option without any policy flags can't be checked by Conditions.
- modifier - A block of Modifiers that applies to the empire with this option active.
- on_enabled & on_disabled - Blocks of Effects to be executed to the empire when this option is selected / switched out. (Country scope)
- AI_weight - The AI will always choose a option of highest weight for each policy. The player will also have each policy fall into an option of highest
ai_weight
by default.
