Need Insight On How To Create Custom Government Type

[Arcane Teuton]

Or I think it is actually called an authority type. Also it'd be nice to be able to override all the civics, but I can probably learn elsewhere how to change civics and then do something where it just needs the government type as an or statement but I'll be able to learn that somewhere else.

But either way, I need help with being able to make my own authority type, and preferably that I could make it as my own unpublished steam mod so I can activate and deactivate it at will.

I'd also prefer if AI wouldn't be able to use it unless specifically told to, but if that's not possible that's not a huge deal.

And I guess it'd be nice to know how to take someone else's mod and then be able to edit it and then make it its own separate mod (privated of course)

Anyways, yeah. If anyone can help me with this, that would be greatly appreciated.

You can only have one Origin. You may not like any of them that are available within the game, DLCs, or mods. So you could figure out how to make your own and mod it into the game, which I don't know how to do that yet. There are 3 or 4 compatible mods that add a bunch of great Origins, since the game only has basic ones.

I have done things that sometimes seem to crash the game, such as giving "too much stuff" to an empire. I've used max_all_resources on empires, for example, in an attempt to give a ridiculous advantage to an Alien empire that I wanted to zerg the galaxy, and we'd all hopefully come together and fight it.

The Modders Den on Discord seems to be the place to go to get help with building mods.

Also, regarding the Origins, there are a few that I would like, but with caveats.
I like lost colony, but for one of my empires it wouldn't make sense for another empire of their type to spawn in the galaxy. But then that makes it an incomplete civic.

Basically I plan on doing a mix between lost colony and Governments Expanded's origin: (i forgot the name but basically its some psionic start)

Oh apparently adding Brainslug via console.... Makes it so leaders don't get traits either?

haha!

That would be good if we could send a spy to infect an enemy.

Look at the code of the mods called Government Variety Pack and More Authorities.

Good luck. :praisesun:

I already have the first one, but I'll consider the second one. I'll still need to learn how to make my own civic at least to override certain incompatibilities, so i might as well also learn how to make my own authority type.
