Is it possible to somehow make this mod compatible with Flogi's Buildings & Technology?
darkstardereroberer 10. feb. 2022 kl. 8:11 
compatible with elder kings?

@ChingPowWingWow Yes sadly, this is a hardcoded feature that I have not found a way to circumvent."
you could run a yearly maintenance event, if fort buildings are present add a flag for each building to the province, the same yearly event could place buildings if the flag is present but not the building

@Dannyboi12233 Oi, I was just wondering if it would be possible to add disease resistance to the fort clinic? Something very weak however like 1% res or 0.50. Also, perhaps an upgrade to the toll road to upgrade it from a toll road to a small fort market?

@Dannyboi12233 ive been playing the agot mod recently and i have noticed that the forts load in with no extra buildings for me to construct on them

Do forts disappear if they get completely sieged or assaulted by another army?
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 17. okt. 2019 kl. 10:53 
This should always be a usable mod due to how lightweight it is,as long as paradox doesn't touch forts (which I highly doubt they will) and they don't redesign the whole engine this mod should always be up to date.
PokeMageTech - ProNetNeutrality 3. okt. 2019 kl. 18:44 
Is this up to date?
nobleheretic 2. sep. 2019 kl. 19:15 
Forts are so cheap and easy to build. I build them primarily to slow down the enemy. It would mainly be nice if they could just be upgraded to have a higher fort level and reduce the amount that can be looted from the province before they are taken.
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 13. aug. 2019 kl. 6:53 
@Rafiki It wasn't possible when this mod was released, since the addition of great wonders I'll have to relook at the code
RafikiBlue565 28. juli 2019 kl. 11:33 
I have tried adding, for example, "light_cavalry = 100," to one of the buildings, yet it does not actually increase the levy size or allow me to raise them. Am I missing something or is it just not possible?
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 11. juni 2019 kl. 4:19 
That was an original feature, however the disease resistance didn't actually add to the province and I haven't found a way to make it work, so it was removed prerelease
Unnamed_Shadow 10. juni 2019 kl. 20:09 
i love this mod. I feel the Clinic Building should add a very small bonus to Disease Resistance. Not as big as the buildings in the Hospital, but just a bit.

Can you add a "imperial roads" building option for imperial goverments? thanks
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 2. mar. 2019 kl. 5:31 
It is compatible with HIP, if it isn't letting you enable the mods, make sure you have cloud sync enabled and if it still doesn't work, try restarting steam
CassioMJR 26. feb. 2019 kl. 13:58 
Is it compatible with HIP?
Darevit 21. feb. 2019 kl. 15:01 
Finally, i really needed a mod like this. Congratz
Candesco 18. feb. 2019 kl. 16:40 
Well, i have changed the fort_consumed_in_settlement_construction to 0, but the fort still get destroyed when i build a new holding. And it's in defines.lua, which i had changed with notepad.
Any ideas why it doesn't work?
Candesco 15. feb. 2019 kl. 18:25 
Thanks for posting a little fix, Snootch. Cause the mod that Dannyboi added to prevent forts getting consumed doesn't work and also conflicts with changing to feudalism. Gonna test if changing the line doesn't conflict, but since it's only one line now probably not.
Snootch 11. feb. 2019 kl. 2:12 
@Dannyboi12233, so yeah... my temple holdings are reading as Baronies, not as Bishoprics. Not sure what has happened.
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 10. feb. 2019 kl. 22:46 
@Snootch Barony is the rank of the holding, if you make the priest the holder of the county it will upgrade to a county and the castle will become a barony, likewise with cities. The main title is always a county, the rest are baronies to make it simple
Snootch 10. feb. 2019 kl. 21:34 
@Dannyboi12233, do you know why all my temples have their names as baronies? I am wondering if I did something with a mod or something... It says it on the pop-up description as well as in the list (like when I want to grant the title to somebody). For example, I built a temple in Jaroslav (county Peremyshl) - it says Barony of Jaroslav. Ugh... Figured you might know. ;)
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 8. feb. 2019 kl. 8:06 
it should work fine with other building mods
mrcoolize 7. feb. 2019 kl. 9:43 
Doesn't work with mods that add building to forts?
\/oron Agrrav 6. feb. 2019 kl. 15:00 
you can just have the Single line inside a Defines file and it'll work Fine with anything that doesn't have the same line
has been something that has been in place for a few years
Snootch 25. jan. 2019 kl. 8:24 
Now we need to figure out how to prevent a Fort from getting wiped-out completely after an enemy sacks it. ;)
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 24. jan. 2019 kl. 21:22 
Snootch is correct! Just make sure if you do it manually you remember to do it every time the game updates, otherwise it will stop working until you do.
Snootch 24. jan. 2019 kl. 20:45 
Or, you could just make a very simple change yourself.

Go to the Steam folder on your hard drive (C:\Program Files (x86) or wherever), and then to \Steam\steamapps\common\Crusader Kings II\common

There is a file called defines.lua. You can open it with Notepad. Then just change one very simple line from a 1 to a 0:

FORT_CONSUMED_IN_SETTLEMENT_CONSTRUCTION = 0
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 24. jan. 2019 kl. 19:04 
I've added a mod to the workshop that makes it so forts are no longer consumed in the construction of new holdings, note this will not be compatible with any mod that changes the defines in any way. https://cs2bus.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1634328750
malices.gossips 8. jan. 2019 kl. 9:01 
Psyentific,yes, the current vesrsion of the mod makes forts just an expensive glass toy that would break apart every time the evil wolf comes to huff on your house.
Sexy Potato 6. jan. 2019 kl. 21:32 
Really i imagine the next dlc may do something like this with forts
GabeC1997 5. jan. 2019 kl. 17:36 
...I've always enjoyed using them as disposable speed bumps, so I could raise and unite my levies in response.
Psyentific 3. jan. 2019 kl. 13:39 
I spent a lot of money and built a really nice fort, but it was destroyed when the province was sieged. That sucks.
Kilkakon 2. jan. 2019 kl. 23:18 
Thanks for the reply. I thought of doing something similar at one point but the fact they die when occupied stopped me :( Still cool that you did it anyway
lex talon 2. jan. 2019 kl. 16:58 
Will ai use the forts and build/upgrade them?
rlk77 2. jan. 2019 kl. 12:18 
How about you ad a dropbox link to your nice mods? I really like to try your comander training mod as well, please give the link for direkt download, steam isn´t working in no case, as Rather fast, Too furious well discribted.

Happy New Year to all of you!
Commander Mordan 2. jan. 2019 kl. 11:27 
@Echo, wow really? first iv heard that cloud sync and workshop could be linked....ill investigate that thank you!!
Echo 2. jan. 2019 kl. 7:42 
In saying that, I consider the current version of the mod excellent. Thanks a lot for your work!
Echo 2. jan. 2019 kl. 7:31 
Personally, I like the risky nature of the forts. I think you should keep the additional buildings to a minimum and not try to make the fort comparable to an actual holding in terms of resilience/garrison etc, since they are primarily the first line of defense.
If anything, I would play off this mechanic and just make (re)building the forts cheaper or faster.
FieryLoveBunny  [ophavsmand] 2. jan. 2019 kl. 6:36 
Thanks for all the love guys! I'm still planning on adding more to the forts, mainly based off of the terrain they are located; including trade routes.

@Killakon, The forts are still destroyed once they are raided/sieged. This seems to be a hardcoded function of the game and I'm not sure there is anything I can do about it. I hae been thinking about giving additional buildings to increase the garrison/fort levels so that they aren't instantly destroyed later in the game, while still maintaining a higher risk/reward ratio than traditional holdings.



I've sent friend requests to those of you requesting a DL link, just know that it won't be hotfixed/updated as quickly as the version on the workshop.
Echo 2. jan. 2019 kl. 5:43 
@Rather fast, Too furious.
A common problem with mods and CK2 is that you don't have cloud synchronization turned on, either in your global Steam settings or the game properties.
Commander Mordan 2. jan. 2019 kl. 5:22 
@Misu96 Clearly your new to steam. Allow me to explain a sad fact with many steam mods
Clicking subscribe is ment to download and install a mod, making it ready to activate in your game. But, and here is the sad fact! It dont always work, some of us, myself and the man you told to subscribe(love that you assumed he didnt and must have totally missed the massive green button) included, have clicked that green button of dreams....downloaded a few kb of whatever....and nothing....no mod, no ability to activate it in the game launcher, nothing.(mod folder does not have the mod either, so it never downloaded or if it did, it went to the wrong place)

Now, i have done the usual, (restarted, ran as admin, unsubbed and resubbed multiple times in different ways, restarted comp, cleared internet cache ect ect ect) and it has not worked, so like rlk77, i too am looking for a download link.


Happy new year!
Kilkakon 2. jan. 2019 kl. 3:32 
I have a question about forts--are they still destroyed when you raid them?
