Unique Company Nations

This mod is a proof-of-concept on how to add unique company nations with its own unique flag, name and even tag without needing to overwrite any vanilla code or files and greatly increasing company countries' modding potential.

Seven unique company nations have been added by this mod which will be formed when its relevant company completes its colonization charter, with each sporting its own unique flag instead of a randomly generated one. This mod is safe to be added mid-playthrough, and should be compatible with most mods as it does not modify any vanilla files.



Company nations are generated nations that do not have its own unique tag. So if you want to give a particular company nation its own unique flag, you would have to modify the DEFAULT flags found in flag_definitions. However, any modification to the DEFAULT flags can't be shared between mods, so if two mods decides to add company flags through this method only the code from one of these mods will be read.


What this mod does instead is utilize the on action on_country_released_as_company_subject to force the newly formed company nation to tag switch to a pre-determined tag. With the company nation now assigned a unique tag, you can customize this nation however you like as you would with a regular tag. This comes with the added benefit of allowing mods that add companies to also customize its flag without making it incompatible with other mods that does the same, and also simplifying more advance modding of company countries like assigning unique events for them.



The following seven companies now have its own unique company nation:
- United Fruit Company
- Ford Motor Company
- FIAT
- General Electric
- Carnegie Steel Company
- William Cramp & Sons
- Standard Oil

I may expand on this list in the future, but no promises. This mod is mostly to act as a proof-of-concept to other modders on how to make cross-compatible company flags and assigning unique tags to company countries.
