No Strategic Threat Diplomatic Penalty

Description
The "Great Power" diplomatic penalty is back in WH3, now renamed to "Strategic Threat". This mod simply sets all scales of the penalty to zero.

Note that there is supposedly a diplomatic buff available from some AI factions for being a strategic threat, but I have never seen it myself. That has also been removed as well. Consider it a concession to balance.

My other diplomacy mod that you may be interested in - No Diplomatic Penalty for "Too Many Trade Partners".

For users on other platforms, you can download the mod here - https://github.com/DrDCB/TWWH3_No_Strategic_Threat_Diplomatic_Penalty/releases

If you want to help me out, consider gifting me one of the DLCs I still don't have or send me a Steam gift card - https://store.steampowered.com/wishlist/id/DrDCB/#sort=order

N.B.: The mod will be updated when it is required. Unless it is verifiably broken, kindly refrain from asking about updates just because the launcher has a coloured icon in it. Any inane BS comments of the ilk "pls update" will be summarily deleted. Given the way this works, the mod is highly unlikely to ever actually need an update.

Mod still works perfectly for me. I don't have the "Strategic Threat" diplomacy penalty with any faction. I think what people are confusing this with are other negative factors behind the scenes that affect the AI's behavior, like: being considered a "primary threat" (which tends to happen naturally as you grow in strength HINT HINT), having unguarded settlements bordering another faction, having End Game Crisis enabled, racial bias against you, and likely other factors. Hell sometimes a faction will declare war if they see no other choice for expansion, even if it is not in their best interest.

Anyone having issues maybe should consider other factors before blaming a mod whose sole purpose is to remove a diplomatic penalty and doesn't touch the AI programming at all. Especially if you're running a massive overhaul mod like Radious that absolutely does modify both the AI and diplomacy.

I mean no disrespect DrDCB, and I absolutely loved your mod when it worked. I completely understand that you wrote, "hasn't changed since release." I'm just stating that the mod no longer works with the newer updates, and I really miss it. My last campaign collapsed with everyone attacking me as I grew a bit stronger. I am not a modder, so I don't know why your mod no longer works, I just hope that one day it will work again, because I really enjoyed the mod.

There's nothing to update. What part of "hasn't changed since release" are you not understanding?

I hope that this mod gets updated/fixed soon, since it does not work for me anymore, and the same seems to be true for others as well, like Kardak, Csoran. As I grew in power I was attacked by everybody, and I just miss this mod, which made the game so much better. Could it be that there is a conflict with the Radious mod? This mod worked fine with Radious until recently, but perhaps that is the issue?

Perhaps I do. Thanks for info, now I need to figure it out. I have not added any new mods, all the mods I have previously worked fine with this one. I have radious, better camera mod, and speedy turn camera mod, that's it. The only mod that comes up outdated is this one.

Is there an update or an alternate for this mod? It is not working anymore, and it is an awesome mod.

It doesn't need an update. The relevant table values literally haven't changed since launch. The mod doesn't edit any UI-related stuff, it just sets the underlying diplomatic penalty values to zero.

This mod is currently not working with v6.2.1 and seems to need an update. I have re-downloaded the mod via subscribing and unsubscribing a few times, and even unsubscribed from all other mods to make sure nothing interferes, but the strategic threat is still present in the diplomacy overview.
