Commands?

[SilencedFiend]

I'm playing the Britannia campaign but i don't want the Vikings in the game. I used the

capture_settlement <castle town>

In medieval shell but it's not working, how are these commands ment to be typed in?

[Gunther von Rittersburg]

Never heard of this command. Or is it a cheat code?

[Gigantus]

It's a console command, commonly referred to as 'cheat'. Correct usage:
capture_settlement <settlement name>

Evicts any resident characters and armies and gives the settlement to the local player. You obviously have to replace the bracketed expression with an actual settlement name.

Can be used in a script as well with the console_command prefix

[Inardesco]

Isn't it better to just use the surrender_regions command?

Since that'll completely eliminate the faction unless it's a horde nation.

[Gigantus]

Well, if you want to zap that faction completely, then yes. It does trasnfer all the regions to the slave faction, though, whereas capture_settlement transfer the specified region and it's assets in the settlement to the player.

[Inardesco]

Yeah, well, I think he rather wants rebels than vikings

[SilencedFiend]

O.k I need to know exactly how to use the capture settlement command, I had typed the command like this

capture_settlement <castle town>

so, what am i doing wrong?

[JeRoi]

L'angleterre c'est de la fumier aussi. Jouer pour l'Irlande !

[Inardesco]

Have you written the name of the settlement in the place of <castle town>?

Like ~capture_settlement London
Or
~capture_settlement Edinburgh
Or
~capture_settlement Caernavaron

??

[SilencedFiend]

Do you need the brackets?

[Inardesco]

No.

They're just there to indicate where you need to place the settlement.

So ~capture_settlement "settlement name"

Without the " "

[Gigantus]

Brackets indicate a variable in the code - you need to replace with it with a valid entry, in this case the settlement's name.

Just thinking loud if you need to use those hyphens when you have a name consisting of multiple parts?

I do hope this is sarcasm.

Yes

So if the settlement name is something like
The Town

Than player entering the console command should put
capture_settlement "The Town"

It works that way with other console commands, and thus should work the same way with this ones.

[Gigantus]

Thanks for confirming - been an eternity since I used console commands in-game.

If knew what is considered racist in this thread I'd have at least a reason to laugh out loud - this way it's just a sad cringe.

Just a guess, but probably the double standard between not wanting the vikings (part of the plan) and not wanting <insert your favorite protected minority here> (everybody loses their minds!).

[SilencedFiend]

I just hate having to do island hopping to kill the Vikings once i defeat their two to three full stacks before I can march on one of the other factions
