[OBSOLETE] HRE Diplomacy Fix (Unlawful Territory blobbing)

Description
Basic fix for the bugged opinion modifier when doing Imperial diplo actions, which eventually led to the Emperor having territory scattered throughout the Empire.

It was adding the Emperor's opinion of himself as a modifier, so it always had +200 and the AI would always accept it.

I also:
- added a bigger negative modifier to the Demand Unlawful Territory acceptance chance (-160, so a dedicated Emperor can still do it with effort).
- changed some of the gold values required to take most Imperial Actions (so you can't spam them and keep getting free CBs, for example).

Balancing is obviously not 100% tested. My observer run seemed fine and less blobby for the Emperor, but you might see some increased "natural" blobbing inside the HRE. This is not due to the mod, just EU5 as it stands right now.

Should be fine to add to existing save.

But whatever blobbing already happened by the Emperor won't be undone, obviously.

Files changed:
- /country_interactions/hre.txt
- /script_values/hre_action_values.txt

There's a open for this on the forum, so hopefully not needed after next patch: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/hre-diplo-acceptance-is-too-high-taking-into-account-own-opinion.1869694/#post-30867259

Opinion modifier is still backwards:

This will use the emperor's opinion of the target country, not the target country's opinion of the emperor.
```
add = {
desc = "THEIR_OPINION_TOOLTIP"
value = "scope:actor.opinion(scope:recipient)"
}
```
It should be
```
add = {
desc = "THEIR_OPINION_TOOLTIP"
value = "scope:recipient.opinion(scope:actor)"
}
```

@NetStalker they made a change in 1.0.2 to remove them after a country is destroyed for whatever reason. :steamfacepalm: I doubt it's working as they intended but not really a bug.

Has anybody figured out why cores are instantly disappearing?

Here it is. It has no balance changes whatsoever. It just releases tags as OPMs when the emperor uses Demand Unlawful Territory and they accept.

@cifrelettere let me know when the mod is out!
cifrelettere Nov 8 @ 2:38pm 
@era Ok I've got a working mod that releases conquered provinces as OPMs. I'm also going to incorporate your opinion bugfix too but not the cost change because I don't like putting balance changes in with fixes (in fact, that's what Paradox did and why they created the bug to begin with).

@cifrelettere yeah this isn't really a good fix. Ideally the Emperor would create OPMs I think, but cba to mod that considering Paradox will (hopefully) change this soon. Hope you find a way until then! Would swap to a mod with a proper fix in an instant hehe

@Fick nope, doesn't change the behavior, just makes it harder to do the action.
cifrelettere Nov 8 @ 12:16pm 
The problem isn't just that the AI always accepts but also that cores seem to be instantly disappearing when tags are destroyed, so when the Emperor wants the land returned it goes to the Emperor instead. I'm trying to fix that so I can play the game semi-normally until Paradox gets around to fixing it (and gets their head out of their ass).

Does this also change the territory reverting to the emperor as well, or does it just make the action less common?
