[indefinitely unsupported, won't crash but no longer needed] Diplomacy for Chaos

Description
Update 3.0: I have confirmed that the mod is not necessary for Tomb Kings to interact with Skarbrand, which should have been impossible if the mod was needed. As such, this mod will no longer be supported unless I hear that it is later needed. Thank you to all who supported this mod and found it helpful and necessary for a time.

------------

New and accurate: Update 2.0/IE has apparently NOT made this mod redundant. As Dwarfs, I can't open diplomacy with Skarrbrand when not running this mod. So perhaps it is still needed. It certainly won't hurt your experience if you run it in 2.0.

Old and inaccurate: Update 2.0/IE has made this mod redundant with the base game. Chaos can now negotiate with order by default, so this mod is no longer needed.

---

This is a very simple mod that lets Chaos factions negotiate with Order factions and lets Order factions negotiate with Chaos. Neither group is automatically at war with the other upon discovery either (I didn't change that, it just comes along with clicking the box that lets them negotiate).

That said, CA already had aversions built in for these factions, so certain factions hate each other. Khorne and Cathay have a -100 aversion for example. Meanwhile Khorne and Skaven have no aversion penalty. I haven't modified any of CA's aversion/affinity values.

If you just want to be able to negotiate as Chaos with Order (or the other way around) and don't want any frills, this mod is for you.

Edit: I have made a submod for those looking to be able to negotiate with Order factions, but still want Order factions to REALLY hate Chaos and make that diplomacy almost impossible. This sub-mod is useful if, for example, you still want the Empire to really hate Khorne and be ready to declare war, but you also want to be able to conduct diplomacy with Vampires as Khorne. (Without a mod like Diplomacy for Chaos or one like it, Vampires are considered an "order" faction and are automatically at war with Chaos upon discovery). Link below:

PS.

You will (probably) need to start a new game to make it work fully. From testing, it seems to work if you have not discovered a faction yet, but does not if you have. For example, if you load this up at turn 50 as Khorne and you discovered Kislev on turn 49, you can't negotiate with them at all. If you discover Cathay on turn 51, you *should* be able to negotiate with them.

Like all GOW mods, this mod has been cleaned to minimize potential conflicts with other mods. This means my mod will not accidentally overwrite someone else's mod changes in an unrelated area. My mod will only conflict with mods that change the exact same things I do.

No, this mod would not conflict with mods that only alter aversion. This mod isn't really needed anymore though - what it does is now part of the base game.

Hey, is this uncompatible with some other mods that alter aversion?

I had a mod like that pre-2.0 (I got permission to take the trading part of the Daemonic Diplomacy mod) and make it standalone. Unfortunately, to make it work correctly required scripting, which I don't know how to do. Trial and error scripting is on my to do list to try to update the mod anyway, but I don't have the time in the near future to do that I'm afraid.

could you add in the options for demon factions to be able to trade? i know that they dont get resources but it would still be nice to have for multiplayer campaigns as the other people can benefit greatly from being able to trade with the demons

Hello everyone, if you are enjoying this mod please consider giving it an upvote. We are only a few votes away from steam giving Diplomacy for Chaos a star rating, which will dramatically increase its visibility to others who might also enjoy it. Thank you!

Unsub from my mod then resubscribe to get the newly uploaded version. Sometimes steam is glitchy if you don't do that.

Comment Part 2:
However, there is a very slight possibility that my mod is being overridden by another mod that has the same string ID as the one line of code I use. I have changed my string ID code and re-uploaded the mod. I suggest doing the Wood Elves test I mentioned above to see if the mod is working or not. If you are not at war with them instantly, it's working. If you are (even after I changed the string ID) there is probably another mod that changes the direct line of code I use and is overriding my mod. If that happens, move my mod in your load order. Try it at the top of your load order and then again at the bottom. One of those placements should fix the issue if nothing else has.
