Loyalty Disabler - All Factions

Description
PSA: With the release of Immortal Empires for Total War: Warhammer III, should this addon somehow break (unlikely), I won't be rolling out any updates.

After having played around with Vampire Coast and found the loyalty system to be, while interesting, really annoying to play with, I was looking for a way to disable it, I found some mods that had been seemingly abandoned by their creators or required updates, so I took the matter into my own hands.

Introducing: 'Loyalty Disabler'
It's a simple mod that does what it says.. Disables the loyalty system. This mod disables loyalty for all factions, and I believe it should be compatible with all other mods, but of course, I can't check that, it only changes 1 string in the game database, so it leaves a very small footprint, which is why I doubt it should cause much trouble.
I've tested it with SFO: Grimhammer 2 with which is works just fine, but if you run into trouble, try messing around with the load order, otherwise leave a comment.

The mod is savegame compatible, but backup your save in case you change your mind later, as it can't be removed once you save with it turned on.

The mod also works fine in co-op, thanks goes to @Mint for testing it.

If you have problems with the mod, try loading the game with ONLY Loyalty Disabler enabled, if that works then another mod is clashing with it, and it's probably out of my control to fix it.

==============================
All Loyalty Disabler Mods by me:

Thanks for the info man, I just got paid so looking forward to dig into the game and figure out how to go about it :D Much appreciated

And I know I said WH3, not WH2. The relevant directories and files are completely identical, for now.

@Nez Hey, I was looking through data.pack in WH3, and I happened to find a fix for the Vampire Coast loyalty trait problem. It's a very small fix, so I would rather not make people download a second mod for it. I figured you could change it yourself, or someone else here could fix it themselves.

In any case, the relevant data is in "data.pack/db/campaign_initial_loyalty_distribution_tables" . The fix is to change every value in the "loyalty" column to 5, which will cause every lord to spawn with a completely neutral loyalty value.

Alternatively, changing to 10 instead of 5 might allow people to get the high loyalty rewards, but I haven't tested yet; it could either be OP or broken. Changing it to 5 seems the closest we'll get to making the game pretend the loyalty system doesn't exist.

It's worth noting this change applies to -all- loyalty factions indiscriminately. Not too bad, however - it should just make their lords spawn with 5 loyalty, and then continue as normal from there.

@Nez Great, will be worth waiting for :)

Sadly the game isn't within my budget for this month, or possibly next too, but once I get my hands on it, if someone haven't made a similar mod, I'll look into it ^^

@Nez I hope you will make this mod for WHIII

this may be a weird question, but does the AI even suffer from this system ?, i have never seen any rogue army (besides the actual non-faction related one's) .... i love this mod when i use those factions myself ofc
