Reworked Tech Tree by ysbnoakashiro

Description
INFO:
This mod is a rework of all the vanilla focus trees. In order to use the Ikko Ikki and the Otomo focus trees you will need the respective DLCs.

Tired of a focus tree that lets you use the matchlocks only in the latest stages of the campaign?
Do you wish that Neo Confucianism and Scholarship were linked so you could just beeline the last religious tech?
And what about the need to study Calligraphy to issue the Sword Hunt? Doesn't it seem a bit unnecessary?

In this mod I reworked the main focus tree to speed up the research of matchlocks along with some improvements in the Way of Chi tree. This mod is trying to be as vanilla as possible, so no edits/new techs have been implemented other than tweaking the focus trees' links.

FEATURES:
You can check the differences between the old and the new focus trees in the screenshots above, if you still wish to read the full list of changes here it is:

For Everyone and the Otomo:

Bushido
  • Linked Attack by fire to Strategy of Defence
  • Linked Gunpowder Mastery to Heaven and Earth

Way of Chi
  • Linked Scholarship to Neo Confucianism
  • Linked Noh to Tea Ceremony
  • Linked Sword Hunt to Tax Reform

  • Removed link between Zen and Noh
  • Removed link between Calligraphy and Sword Hunt
  • Ninjutsu Mastery takes now 10 turns to research (tech only)

For Ikko Ikki:

Bushido
  • Linked Attack by fire to Strategy of Defence
  • Linked Gunpowder Mastery to Heaven and Earth

Way of Chi
  • Linked Sword Hunt to Tax Reform

  • Removed link between Calligraphy and Sword Hunt
  • Ninjutsu Mastery takes now 10 turns to research (tech only)


COMPATIBILITY:
-This mod is compatible with every mod who doesn't edit the tech trees. When used with other tech trees mods, it may not be working properly.
-This mod is fully compatible with my 46 clans mods, so feel free to use them together!




Enjoy!

It's just an update to make it compatible with the latest version of the game, nothing more. The mod should now stop being outdated, so you can play with it enabled again

Hey! Amazing mod. Please respond to this, i'm a modder myself :(

I am trying to remove nodes in the FOTS campaign, and I don't know how you did it.
I tried editing your pack, removed all the nodes, but that only removed nodes to the two gunpowder tech and the metsuke one.

So it's clear that it's possible to remove/change nodes, just like you have - but i'd like to learn how, so I can remove more

Thank you

Small quality of life mods like this one are the reason why I keep comin' back to Shogun.
Thank you for making this!

This might be exactly what I was looking for for a long time while playing this game. Thank you!

Hi, ysbnoakashiro! Nice mod!

Can you help me? How do I remove Noh's connection with Ninjutsu Mastery?

@Toen6 as far as I know, playing with mods on won't disable any achievement so it should be the same for my mod
