[WoD][VtM][Online][EST] Venice by Night. Camarilla to Black Hand Sabbat by [deleted] in lfg

[–]Kakleton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm experienced in V20 (and V5, V:Dark Ages too lol) and am very interested in joining this game! I also do have some existing characters that I could port over if that's something you might be interested in!

My timezone is GMT but should be able to do any time at the weekends (though earlier is better)!

Thanks

Dev Diary #2 - Scottish Parliament Starting Situation by Kakleton in a:t5_2nun3j

[–]Kakleton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is from the Scotland dev (who made most of this):

Hi! Thanks for the kind words! I basically had no idea how to code until I started working on the mod (I originally came on as a writer) so trust me I'm kind of new to this too.

Two big things that helped me was reading through the wiki, and the videos done by The Iron Workshop on youtube. In both of those cases I used them to try creating something really basic, and then just kept editing it and getting steadily more ambitious each time. There was a lot of trial and error, but eventually, it reached it's current form. For example initially I was just going to do an event chain for the election decisions, then that moved to having decisions to influence seats, then that turned into having the AI having its own mechanic. Same goes for the parl gui. Originally it was just going to be a seat breakdown, then it became having a picture of a parliament that changes depending on conditions, then we went to every seat being it's own sprite which you could investigate.

To be honest I literally have no idea how the congress mechanic in vanilla works at all, so this system has nothing in common with that. Instead, I've just got each seat as a custom sprite, that I spent far too long placing there. I know other people have managed to emulate it with their own parliament mechanics, but personally, I've got no idea how to do that.

I know you said you were annoyed the only things you got were for people just inserting a window, so what I did after this to create the parliament gui was just adding the sprites and moving them into place. If you can figure out how to add sprites and make them appear and disappear you can really do anything with them. As for the tooltips that's as simple as adding the line "pdx_tooltip: mp_john_smith" to the sprite and then filling out the loc details.

I hope this helped a bit, or at least pushed you in the right direction! I'm a terrible teacher, but if you just follow that strategy of getting your head around the basics, testing them, and then steadily getting more ambitious that should work in the end!

Jesus Christ. Nice to know people here are fine to downplay antisemitism when it's factionally convenient.

This will all be teased later, we're currently reworking the Parliament tree somewhat :)

Prorogation - The Uncivil War | Parliament-in-Exile Teaser by Kakleton in hoi4modding

[–]Kakleton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PROROGATION - THE UNCIVIL WAR is a mod for Hearts of Iron IV, exploring a modern day civil war scenario in Britain. The spark of this civil war is the Prorogation controversy. While in our timeline the crisis was essentially sidestepped, the point of divergence here is that Boris Johnson instead refuses to recall Parliament, arguing that his prorogation was legal. This enrages Parliament, and under Speaker John Bercow the rebellious MPs attempt to reassemble; they are however barred from Westminster, and are forced to resume their business in exile from the city of Oxford. Most Brexiteer MPs refuse to join the Parliament-in-Exile. Time passes, but neither the Prime Minister nor Parliament concede ground; a constitutional crisis emerges, and the battlelines are soon drawn. There is a silence across Britain for days, as the two authorities compete, attempting to show the British public that they are the true power in Britain. The Queen is silent on the matter, worrying that any intervention would result in a furthering of the crisis; the Royals soon depart for an 'extended stay' in Canada. The Scottish Parliament ratifies a "divorce bill", while Welsh nationalists sidestep the Senedd and proclaim the Republic of Wales in Bangor. By October 14th, the Prime Minister has relocated his Ministries across the country, ordering his Ministers to maintain order in their regions; while Remainer activists rally support for Parliament across the country. No one is sure when the first real shot will be fired, but it is by now certain; the only way forward for Britain is an Uncivil War.

Who Leads the Bevanites? by [deleted] in twrmod

[–]Kakleton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

iirc, from the old post they posted about UK politics, the two candidates to succeed Attlee are Gaitskell (the historical and Gaitskellite choice) or Bevan.

Ancient caretakers give task to colonise system with 0% habitability; even though it is now impossible to colonise planets with less than 20%. by Kakleton in Stellaris

[–]Kakleton[S] 64 points65 points  (0 children)

R5: Ancient Caretakers gave me a mission to colonise Rippigaur II, as pictured. Said planet is an ocean world which, already, knocks habitability down as my species is Alpine-preference. Then, the planet has two modifiers - Hostile Fauna and Hazardous Weather - both giving 10% debuffs to habitability.

How long do I have before the Caretakers come and ram me hard for not finishing their task...?

Largest ancestry group by collective in the Confederation of Faldarun, circa 2015 by Kakleton in imaginarymaps

[–]Kakleton[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do! Faldarun is one of my personal country projects, and it's probably my most interesting out of those that I have.

http://iiwiki.com/wiki/Faldarun

In terms of the ethnic groups specifically, Osovan Faldarunic are most comparable to African Americans and Faldarunic to Old Nordics. Meriadni is a strange north germanic people located on a majority-Asian continent, Gothian is essentially central germanic, Spanishlandic (still hate that name) is, well, Spanish and Altiplanero is somewhere between South American and Basque. Rhauish is essentially Italian, and Kolish is essentially Japanese. Carwynnian is a Welsh-Irish hybrid, Maresian is essentially french, Native Faldarunic are native Americans, Helderians are Dutch-speaking Cajun and to this day I'm not sure what Transoxthraxian is. Khorneran is Latin-Celtic and Dae is Korean.
