Buy Influence (Old)

This is an archived version of the main Buy Influence mod, before the recent price restructure was implemented. It is intended only for backwards-compatibility (eg. continuation of existing saves, if you dislike the new version of the mod) - it will not be kept up-to-date in the future.

---

This mod allows you to buy influence from the Artisan Enclave, by running propaganda campaigns.

The propaganda campaigns are implemented in ta similar way to trade companies' trade deals: a constant drain on resources that can be cancelled at any time. The difference is that the trade never ends (unless you cancel it).

The cost of a propaganda campaign is 20 minerals + 20 energy per 1 influence. At the moment (v2.2.4), this feels too cheap - I might eventually change this to scale with empire size.

• Incompatible with the main version of the Buy Influence mod.
  
• Edited the leviathans.300 event (the "front screen" of the Artisan Enclave), to act as a gateway into this mod.
  
• Edited the leviathans.330 event, so that the Propaganda Campaign is removed if you annoy the Artisans. (Not tested.)
  
• Edited the leviathans.333 event, so that the Propaganda Campaign is removed if all of the Artisan Enclaves are destroyed. (Not tested.)
  
• No other vanilla files are edited, so this mod should be compatible with anything that doesn't alter the Artisan Enclave.

• All of my mods are available on Github[github.com] (eg. in case you want to revert to an earlier version)
  
• As this is a one-off version for backwards-compatibility, you will need to check the version history carefully if you want to look at the source code for this exact version.

• Tested version: 2.2.4
  
• Required DLC: Leviathans
  
• Ironman compatible: Yes
  
• Achievement compatible: No
