Society Tutorial

Description
- - - NOT INTENDED FOR ACTUAL USE IN GAME - - -

I have received several requests for help or permissions to use my society as a template, so I have decided to make this very simple society as a template tutorial of sort. It work in game but has no flavor at all.

It has every basics and pictures required to make a society alongside a lot of #comments to guide you. You only need to copy it to a new folder (so my updates don't overwrite your work) and start editing it. It is also most likely full of grammar errors (I find new ones every time I look at it, but updating the files each time I fix one would be a real pain), I didn't want to bother my spell checker as I don't consider it to be a proper mod to be taken seriously and wanted it out asap.

When I receive more requests for help about societies I will add the answer to this "mod" in an update.

[s]Perhaps now we will have more than 1 released society![/s]
We do now! :D

Do look at my other, real, societies!

@None
Haven't modded CK2 for years, I do not remember how to do these.

Find a mod that add bloodline (preferable that only add bloodline, so there's less clutter) and reverse engineer it. Like copy that whole mod and change the words/code one by one until you figure it out. It's the best way to learn IMO.

Societies are relatively complex which is why I made this mod initially. Bloodlines were barely more complex than traits iirc.

Been a while, but you can certainly cheat the system for that.

I basically do the reverse in my chivalry societies mod (keep the title holder of each holy order the society leader of their own society). Check the on_action and event files for stuff related to events CHI.105 ad CHI.106.

You could probably also do it in a dirty way, like a power/decision only visible to the grand master which steal the religious title. AI check decision like every month iirc and do all of those he can, so it might be delayed by a few days but he'll get the title.

that is amazing,thanks for making it.
Do you now if it is possible for the society's leader to be the head of faith(Pope for example) and when he dies the next in line in the society gets to become head of faith?

You are welcome!

Forgot to thank you for this gem of a tutorial. Downloaded it about a year ago, and it has taught me all I needed to know to start churning out societies for the Faerun mod. Thank you!

Glad to see that it is still useful even 3 years later. Nobody had really done society stuff beside me at that point, so spreading knowledge was needed.

And do not worry, I have seen worst as far as weird societies goes lol.

Truly utterly brilliant. This is a great helper to get started!

I opened all the files, renamed a few things, loaded it up to test... The first time trying out the shell of the society it worked brilliantly!

There is "Penis Fight Club" on my list of known societies and a list of the members from the lowly initiate "Skanks and Wankers" all the way up to the "Big Daddy" at the top of the society! Soon the men and women of the middle ages will be penis fighting and scissor fighting all across Europe!

I'm going to have fun setting up events for this one and uh... fleshing it out.! ;)

Sorry to use the gift you have granted us on something so puerile and ridiculous!

Sorry, never touched them at all. :\

The Elder King mod add a few. You could try asking them.
