@4x-RT I did not know that, that is good to know!

So it looks like what changes you made will only make it easier for another round of heresy to start. The actual number of conversions is defined in a event file called "heresy_events", which sets up a "heresy_power" variable. Basically, events will be sent to other people in the same religion when a heresy first appears, but they will only convert if there is a positive heresy_power. That power decreases for each conversion.

Oh that's good to know, thank you for that!

A little tip, you don't need to replace the whole "02_religion_values" file, as I see you just edited the single "heretical_defector_fervor_gain" line

You can create just a txt file with that change, just don't name it as the original file in the game, so something like "hereticfervor_religion_values.txt"

@blazeknave Well if a religion has trouble recovering fervor after a wave of heretics spawn, it should make it easier for heretics to spawn in the future

lol amazing description. do we know what this does? :)
