Not directly related : I’m trying to unroll the gossip by default, the game naturally rolls them up, I have to click on the arrow to unroll them each time. But I don’t find where I can manage that in the game’s code ! I supposed I could ask here, by chance, someone would know !

@Quasi-Detective I know what you mean. That's not because of this mod though. Happens in vanilla Civ too.
Quasi-Detective 8 Nov, 2023 @ 1:34pm 
This mod is great, except gossip started appearing before I even had any traders, and began telling me gossip about civilizations I hadn't met yet. As someone who enjoys the reveal of who the game randomly adds to my games, these "spoilers" are very deflating... I now don't have a reason to explore the continent I just discovered in my game, because I know who's probably on it. :')

Can confirm @MasterionX 's report. I disabled all of my mods except this one, and this is the one that causes the diplomacy screen to break.

Hi, @FinalFreak16

The mod ( Simplified Gossip ) breaks the Leaders' screens in-game. While it's possible to play without opening your own Leader's screen - playing without opening other Leaders' screens obviously makes any kind of diplomacy impossible. Can this be fixed, please? :steamsad:

@RapidGG I've been away from Civ Modding for quite some time, but if you still have the translation I'm happy to add it now.
RapidGG 17 Jul, 2022 @ 10:53pm 
I made KR translation of GS of your mod. Can I send you this?
Nizou 1 Jul, 2022 @ 4:19pm 
I still got this in Modding.log :
[3152926.182] ERROR: Invalid file reference in action, did you forgot to add it in <Files>? - Text/Expansion1/Gossip_Text_GS-es_ES.xml
[3152926.182] ERROR: Invalid file reference in action, did you forgot to add it in <Files>? - Text/Expansion1/Gossip_Text_GS-de-DE.xml

@pauloe7 thank I think that should be fixed now.
@Adriaman, I dont think any other changes are necessary here. The mod does not use .\Base\Assets\UI\DiplomacyActionView.lua but instead imports DiplomacyActionView_Expansion2 and overrides the OnActivateIntelGossipHistoryPanel function.
Adriaman 22 Apr, 2021 @ 12:45pm 
Hi, the following file has been updated, you might want to take a look:
..\Base\Assets\UI\DiplomacyActionView.lua
pauloel7 17 Apr, 2021 @ 10:53am 
It's not "Expansion1/Gossip_Text_GS-es_ES.xml", but "Expansion2/Gossip_Text_GS-es_ES.xml".
pauloel7 27 Mar, 2021 @ 4:14pm 
There seems to be some issue in modinfo listing the files within Expansion 1/2 folders.

Thanks heaps anyway! :)
FinalFreak16  [author] 28 Jan, 2021 @ 3:58pm 
At this point Simplified Gossip within CQUI is a completely separate mod managed by a different team. Since I do not use CQUI myself, nor am I involved in the project beyond giving my blessing for it to be integrated. So I'm not sure what its current state is I'm afraid.
=[NK]= Col. Jack O'Neil 28 Jan, 2021 @ 3:42pm 
Hey final, simplified gossip is incorporated into cqui, will that compatibility work the same?
FinalFreak16  [author] 28 Jan, 2021 @ 2:56pm 
A patch for compatibility between Simplified Gossip and EDR has now been applied to both mods.
Royal Raven 27 Jan, 2021 @ 10:49am 
@Vitamin Chonks, if you are using the EDR mod, there is a fix over there in the Discussion section. I think soon though EDR and SG is going to fix the issue between their two mods.
Chonks ♿ 27 Jan, 2021 @ 10:38am 
I'm also getting the UI dissapearing when you encounter a CIV. I removed all other mods and managed to isolate it to this one.
FinalFreak16  [author] 14 Jan, 2021 @ 10:31am 
@NuDDen Yes, I have messaged Aristos on the stickied discussion thread about a possible way to make the two mods compatible but have yet to get a reply: Thread
NuDDen 14 Jan, 2021 @ 4:39am 
@FinalFreak16 Is it possible to make these two Mods (EDR an this one) compatible without manually editing the Modfiles.
Royal Raven 6 Jan, 2021 @ 5:29pm 
Look under Pinned XML files for Simplified Gossip mod users.
Royal Raven 6 Jan, 2021 @ 5:28pm 
@PGV This is an issue with using EDR mod, there is a manual fix you have to do that is in the Popular Discussion area to fix the issue between the two mods enabled.

FinalFreak16  [author] 6 Jan, 2021 @ 1:47pm 
@PGV I haven't been able to replicate any issue like that. Are you sure it was caused by this mod?
PGV 4 Jan, 2021 @ 1:20pm 
UI dissapear on AI turn, and ai turn never ends
Silverson 17 Dec, 2020 @ 2:55am 
For some reason it crashes the game when i find King Arthur. UI disappears and i the only option available in the setting menu is to exit to main menu or to windows.Disabling this mode solves the problem. This mod is one of the ,close to 30 that i have enabled.
Zyxpsilon 27 Nov, 2020 @ 8:48pm 
Not sure if the latest NFP-Babylon pack has broken the flow of Gossip messages... but suddenly there's a ***LOT*** less activities. All and all while playing Ethiopia against 3 random AI (Brazil, Arabia + Georgia) on a small map --- so far, i've only got ONE gossip slot filled & just entered Modern Era!
Duh! :(
+TheRedBaron097+ 27 Nov, 2020 @ 5:27pm 
Great, now i don't have to read, "your follower bob at major city learned that john is trading with bill...blah blah blah.
Royal Raven 23 Oct, 2020 @ 7:13pm 
I never had any issues with this mod, though I have not ran any of the new scenarios.
Zur13 7 Aug, 2020 @ 5:44am 
While playing the game I've encountered a critical bug, on AI turn due to this mod entire game UI disappeared and AI turn never ends. This is what I found in the Lua.log https://pastebin.com/NtJZEf6c

My little fix to this error:

1. Open file Steam\SteamApps\workshop\content\289070\1126451168\UI\DiplomacyActionView_FF16.lua with notepad

2. Find line 61 with this text
item.Icon:SetIcon("ICON_GOSSIP_" .. kGossipData.GroupType);

3. REPLACE line 61 with these 3 lines:
if (item.Icon ~= nil) then
item.Icon:SetIcon("ICON_GOSSIP_" .. kGossipData.GroupType);
end

Maybe it is related to the new diplomacy events from Secret Societies DLC?

Hello, I like your mods very much! I'd like to report that this mod is broken for me in multiplayer. After adding it, clicking on another leader's icon (which normally shows make deals, denounce etc) brings the game to the fullscreen screenshot mode and nothing taking it back. I was using a lot of mods though Better Report Screen (UI), Policy Change Reminder, Real Great People (UI), Alternate policy screen, better deal window, better trade screen, more lenses, sukritact's simple UI adjustment (tried disabling this but didn't fix it), sukritact's global relations panel.
Kryndude 14 Jul, 2020 @ 8:06pm 
This crashed my game too. I was using Better Report Screen (UI), Close Panels, Policy Change Reminder, and Real Great People (UI). Unfortunate that I can't use this great mod.
FinalFreak16  [author] 14 Jun, 2020 @ 5:30am 
@igrgurina can you provide me a list of your active mods for when this happened? The only thing I can think of is something not playing nice with Simplified Gossip and disabling one or the other fixes the issue.
igrgurina 14 Jun, 2020 @ 1:34am 
Diplomacy screen did fail, when I exit into the main menu or out of the game, it shows a brief splash of a diplomacy screen, that I'm guessing failed to load, leading to the breaking of the game.
igrgurina 14 Jun, 2020 @ 1:33am 
I noticed this too with this mod, same problem as KeeperGFA. When I disabled this mod, everything works fine.
FinalFreak16  [author] 13 Jun, 2020 @ 1:23pm 
@KeeperGFA seems highly unlikely to be related to this mod. It only updates text, and some UI elements in the Diplomacy view when talking to other leaders and looking at gossip history. If it crashed at worst the Diplomacy screen would fail to load but that's it.
KeeperGFA 13 Jun, 2020 @ 1:06pm 
Mod seems to break my game at some unknown point. When I press End Turn - units move, the UI disappears, and I can no longer play / load / save. Disabling the mod restores functionality.
gigafrosty 1 Jun, 2020 @ 8:40pm 
Can confirm that this mod works with the new CQUI mod! Yay!
Nizou 21 May, 2020 @ 1:23pm 
Expanded Alliances mod from JNR is also broken by this mod, I hope this will get updated for both NFP and mods from other modders
stronk 21 May, 2020 @ 9:27am 
The mod seems to be working fine on the latest patch. If you have a missing UI make sure to check your LUA logs (Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\Logs\Lua.log) to see what mod is causing the issues. Also, if you are using the Extended Diplomacy Ribbon mod, it is incompatible with this mod (EDR is also not yet updated for the May 2020 patch), but they have a patch on their workshop page which you can apply to get both mods working together nicely.

Causing missing UI when I clicked on a leader
Nizou 7 Apr, 2020 @ 3:10am 
If used with EDR and with its patch it works, but it hinders the game to work with "Expanded Alliances" mod from JNR even with the patch
Broadhurst Monk 6 Apr, 2020 @ 6:44pm 
This mod is broken.
Grego 23 Mar, 2020 @ 8:09am 
Causing missing UI at some point at the beginning. E.Dip.Pibbon is way too important than this one unfortunately.
secret_online 5 Feb, 2020 @ 11:28pm 
As @Nyven pointed out, some errors are caused by a conflict with Extended Diplomacy Ribbon. If you are using that mod, there is a way of solving it.

Go to the thread in the EDR mod page .
Download the zip file from Google Drive. There will be 2 XML files in it.
Open up C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\289070\1360462633\ , which is the folder for the EDR mod.
Open the Vanilla_XP1 folder, rename DiplomacyActionView.xml to something else (I chose DiplomacyActionView.xml.ORIGINAL ), copy DiplomacyActionView_Vanilla_XP1.xml from the zip file, and rename it to DiplomacyActionView.xml .
Repeat the above step for DiplomacyActionView_XP2.xml in the XP2 folder.

If your conflict is with another mod, then this won't work for you. Check other mods' descriptions to see if someone else has fixed it.
Nizou 29 Jan, 2020 @ 8:55am 
Seems to have a location bug in Modding.log :
[4063404.355] Warning: Unable to load C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/289070/1126451168/Text/Expansion1/Gossip_Text_GS-de-DE.xml

Finally found the mod causing me so much mayhem. Can't even count the number of saved games ruined because of this.
Nerevatar 12 Dec, 2019 @ 11:51am 
Also encountered this problem, and solved it manually as described by @Nyven.
Nyven 22 Oct, 2019 @ 7:28am 
@chicken I assume you are also using the Extended Diplomacy Ribbon mod. I had the same issue as you, disabling either one of these two mods works as they now conflict with each other. Extended Diplomacy Ribbon has modified xml files in their discussion thread for this mod that you can download and replace the two DiplomacyActionView.xml files in Simplified Gossip, seems there is one line that conflicts, witch will make it so these two mods play together nice again.

@FinalFreak16 Hopefully you can look and these changes and see what you think.... having these two mods play nice together without manually changing one of them would be nice. Thx
sexy chiken carry 22 Oct, 2019 @ 4:47am 
Broken mod atm, I play gathering storm. with few mods, tested them all and turned out that this mod made issues when I clicked on a civ to trade or talk, user interface disappears.. Verifying game files fixed the issue for few rounds but went back the issue and now stuck at that.. - reloading game/restarting game shows the UI but once I click on the bot UI is gone.
