Description:


Update of Mehnis mod
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1454024362

– Updated by Taranchuk
– Commissioned by Spark7979
– Updated as is, have not been tested with other mods than those listed below. Please report if any mod is not compatible.
– Added german translation, thanks Erdnussbrot!
– Added Czech translation, thanks FubarXS!
– Increased the time modifier for faction interaction max-value to 10
– Added option to disable Annual Expo since it seems to cause issues for some users
– Added option to exclude trade caravans from the faction interaction changes

– Reported to work with Dynamic Diplomacy and the ‘Vanilla Expanded’ factions series. Thank you Black Goat.
– Seems to work best loaded at the bottom of the mod-list

Regarding getting too many caravans: (via Black Goat)
” MFI increases probability of trade caravans arriving based on faction goodwill. This is working as intended but I suspect this feature can be compounded to an unwanted degree for players using a lot of faction mods and/or by using Dynamic Diplomacy with certain settings.

My recommendations for people who play with MFI + DD or faction mods would be to increase the "Time modifier for faction interaction" slider in the MFI mod settings menu from 1 to 3 and to disable the "Allow Alliance" and "Allow permanent enemy factions to change relationships" options for DD. ”

– Another solution for the trader-spam is to use my mod Ask before enter

Adds more interaction with and between factions, bringing the world to life.

Meaningful faction relations

– Build up trust and factions will reward you
– Cement relations by inter-faction marriages
– Help factions recover from various setbacks
– Factions may call upon you for labour
– Favours for favours
– Increased rate of world events

Trade improvements

– Specialised traders desperate for certain goods
– More frequent traders, if you treat them right
– Traders get richer as you build up trust
– Traders bring higher quality as relations increase

A living world

– Pirates spread out and grow outposts
– Pirates can demand tribute if they’re close by – destroy their outposts!
– Show off your skills at the yearly exposition. Maybe you’ll do well and be invited to host next year?
– Roadworks. To strengthen ties and increase trade, your allies can build roads as a nice silver sink.
– Squatters! Someone found a use for an old deserted settlement.

Warring factions

– Unrest is brewing between two factions! Will you pick a side, stay neutral or profiteer?

TL;DR: More events

– Diplomatic marriages
– Reverse trade requests
– Bumper crops
– Hunter’s Lodge
– Pirate extortion
– Mystical Shaman
– Annual Expo
– Squatters
– Roadworks
– Faction WAR
