Description
James's Korea Flavor Pack
Historical characters & events for Joseon & the Korean Empire

Currently compatible with Vic3 1.8

==========

Overview
James's Korea Flavor Pack ((J)KFP) is a mod that aims to add historically-inspired flavor to Korea. It includes dozens of historical characters serving as rulers, commanders, IG leaders, and agitators, complete with DNA. It also includes a host of flags from my old Expanded Flags: Korea mod, dynamic country names and colors, and unique party & interest group names.

KFP comes with detailed journal entries and event chains driving historical content throughout the majority of a Korea campaign. Face the challenge of reining in a Korean administration on fire at the tail end of the Sedo Politics period, appease or crush the Imo Mutiny and Donghak Peasant Rebellion, and modernize the nation with the Gwangmu Reforms agenda. The decisions you make to navigate one of Korea's most tumultuous historical periods will determine whether the fledgling kingdom remains a small, far-flung dot on a map or whether they achieve their wildest dreams and become a Great Power in Asia, rivaling that of China and Japan.

I am not a historian or native Korean. I am an American-born Korean-American who has a casual interest in Korean history. I do not have very authoritative sources nor do I have the motivation or means to track such things down. The content in this mod is meant to be historically-inspired, but not a 100% historically-accurate depiction of the events and characters in Korea's history, similar to vanilla Victoria 3 content.

Mod Compatibility
Users of Timber to Steel should use this compatibility patch for improved interoperability.

-----

KFP defines all its content in its own files, so it should be compatible with most mods.

However, any mod doing any of the following things may cause conflicts:
  • Changing the Korean states in terms of their shapes and internal names
  • Changing the provinces in Korean states
  • Removing the vanilla interest groups
  • Adding or removing Korean flags
  • Changing the starting ruler and/or heir of Korea
  • Changing the vanilla logic for the on_heir_born on action

Any mod that does any of the above may require a compatibility patch for both to function correctly.

-----

Additionally, any mod that does any of the following will conflict with KFP, but will not cause KFP to error:
  • Changing Japanese flags or dynamic country names

A compatibility patch may be required for these mods to work in harmony with KFP, but any mod that overwrites KFP in these areas may do so without issues.

Loading Order
The positioning of KFP with respect to other mods should not matter, except in the case of certain compatibility patches.
Follow any instructions provided by compatibility patch mods.

If you are having issues with other, unrelated mods, place KFP lower (towards the bottom) in your playset.

DLC Requirements
This mod does not rely on any DLC features, so you should not need any DLCs.

Certain content from the Sphere of Influence DLC has been overwritten or tweaked to integrate with the mod's features.
It is still possible to earn the Hermit Kingdom achievement with KFP enabled!

Korea's Standard of Living is extremely low!?
Look at the Sedo Politics journal before you come whining, please, thanks

If you're a concerned onlooker: the AI is also capable of handling it themselves if you give them like 50 years and a couple of civil wars to do it

I actually figured it out a while after posting that comment lol

First rule of debugging anything is complain about it online... :steammocking:

This one seemed to be related to some edge case that could happen if the Donghak Peasant Rebellion ended at a specific point in the week. It'd trip up the logic meant to track who actually committed armies to the rebellion war since the journal wouldn't close before the next week tick in some situations.

perhaps you have figured it out by now but i know the BPM folks were struggling with but solved a similar issue proccing wars in 1.9, it seems a lot of the under the hood syntax has been altered

Okay this is taking longer than I expected since I found a bug with the code that is supposed to start the Sino-Japanese War and I am still struggling to understand what's going wrong 😔

Soon, hopefully

Got sidetracked with something else the past couple of weeks & I'm having to rework some of the existing contents to work with the treaties in a nicer fashion.

업데이트 언제 되나요 ㅜㅜ 이모드 없으면 빅토리아3 할수가 없습니다.

When is the update coming? ㅜㅜ I can’t play Victoria 3 without this mod.

update plz????????
1230james  [author] Jun 15 @ 3:08pm 
I will say specifically for KFP that I will try to prioritize it this time around since last time the 1.8 update did not come out for several months, and combined with the increased visibility after OPB's video, I think this deserves better treatment this time.

Like with the 1.8 update, there will be no new major content updates - it will be focused on compatibility. Any new content will be for the sake of accommodating any fundamental base game changes, such as with the new Sedo Aristocracy interest group.

(Copypasting this across some of my mods)

Vic3 1.9 will release this coming Tuesday. As with previous major updates, a 1.9 update for this mod may take several weeks or months because I am a solo developer with a full-time job working 10+ hours Monday through Thursday. Progress during the work week will be rather slow, and I have over two dozen mods to check & verify whether anything needs to be changed, and then make any necessary changes.

The upcoming tweaks to certain things like decisions and scripted buttons will mean that more of my mods will be impacted this time around, so it may take quite some time.

Please be patient while I work on updating all of my mods. Thank you!
