Description:

The AI already roleplays when picking it’s character focus. The problem is that there are 10 different foci to choose from so most personality-based the modifiers are too low to make a significant impact. A character who’s Just and Diligent may have a 6x modifier to the ‘weight’ of the Rulership focus, but 6 out of 15 is still only 40%, so 60% of the time the character would pick an essentially random focus.

HOW IT WORKS

This mod simply changes all the personality based modifiers the AI uses to either 10 or 0.1. So that same Just and Diligent character from before will now pick Rulership 100 out of 109 times, or 92% of the time.

Beyond that the mod removed a few of the modifiers for Ambitious/Content and imposed a mandatory condition that only Lustful characters will pick Seduction focus and only if they don’t also have Celibate. Similarly, only Deceitful characters will pick Intrigue focus.

COMPATIBILITY

The mod changes the checksum of the game and as a result it will prevent you from getting achievements.

It changes only one file:
1) Crusader Kings II/common/objectives/00_focuses.txt

As a result it should be compatible with the vast majority of other mods, with the exception of those that also change that same file.

Overhaul mods such as HIP, CK2+, and AGOT all change that file, so they probably aren’t compatible.

SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION

If you like this mod, you might also be interested in Better AI: Roleplaying Education Focus, a mod that introduces RP logic to the AI’s selection of childhood and education focuses (Conclave DLC). A combined manual download for both mods can be found here[www.dropbox.com]

I also made several other mods.

Finally, I’d be grateful if you could rate the mod with either thumbs up or thumbs down. The button for it is up just below the mod cover image.
