Hey, if you're sad this mod is broken for 3.1+ don't worry, the lite version is still fully functional. Slap that bad boy into your game and it'll work like a charm.

sadly this mod is broken for 3.1 :(

Check the Stellaris wiki, they've got a guide on it

How do you integrate your Vassals?

Negatory. I leave that to your discretion; either use an AI mod like Starnet to make them competent without AI bonuses, or use a mod that gives vassals difficulty bonuses.

Do these vassals retain the difficulty bonuses for AI?

I don't believe this "respect borders" has anything to do with my mod, sorry! But that sounds like a vanilla issue to me.

How does respect boprders work, I tried to keep starbase but it still ceded to uplifted primitive.

Would you consider making the civic available for GC and Corporate empires? I think it'd be sweet to RP a corp sneaking in businesses just to eventually vassalise. Or a hivemind lead by a self-proclaimed god that think it's destined to lead the galaxy, etc.

Tech sharing works like research agreements. You don't trade techs outright.

The tech sharing does not seem to work. If i check the contact screen their tech is still "pathetic" compared to mine and the victory screen also shows their tech score as much lower than mine.

Feudal Realm Civ, aye

I've not tried Vassalizing a FE without the civ or war goal so idk about that.

Is that for the Feudal Realm civic, or in general?

Isn't it a bit odd to be able to Vassalize FE's? They are beyond arrogant and their pride is at the top

Hmm i see, but i dont think the AI will do any diplomacy after being vassalized in any form (even as thralls). I think its an inherent bug with the paradox AI where they thing they cant do anything after being subjugated

They should have a similar level of independence as Megacorp Subsidiaries - so they're able to wage wars independently and take territory of their own, but they have to fight alongside you if the need arises, that sort of thing.

After playing for a while the mod is pretty good in my opinion, it does exactly what the feudal civic always should have done. the tax amount is just right, not enough to gimp your vassals but enough to make a bit of profit. Just a question but how much diplomatic independence do they get and can they still claim systems as vassals?

Like if you could just show which traditions file you edited, that would be extremely helpful and I think I could get the to work

How would I go about disabling cultural overhauls version because I like yours better, but I like the rest of cultural overhaul

Unless I'm misunderstanding you, empires vassalised by force are of course going to be upset about it. You'll just have to continue the beatings until morale improves!

Also i used Starnet AI

Could you give a temporarly +100 or something as a opinion modifier (decays like with -3 or -5 over time) cause its pretty annoying having them immediately rebel without any trust building up

I'll get on it. Let me know if you find any bugs with it in 2.3.2.

Please update

Gonna try this mod out, from the description it sounds pretty good

It'll be easy enough to make a compatch for the pair, but I can't guarantee that it'll receive constant updates.

The Lite and the Full Version of this mod and Cultural Overhaul 2.3 [ Ethics-Civics ] have still one conflict file: \common\governments\authorities\00_authorities.txt but the differences are not that huge, I guess a merge should be possible (or a compatibility patch or whatever).
Cultural Overhaul does not touch the Feudal Realm Civic (as far as I know at least), so I think the Full Version of this Mod and Cultural Overhaul 2.3 [Ethics-Civics-Traditions] are mergeable as well, only 3 Files have conflicts:

\common\governments\authorities\00_authorities.txt
\common\tradition_categories\00_diplomacy.txt
\common\traditions\00_diplomacy.txt

But to be fair, besides comparing the files I honestly don’t know what I am doing. So I don’t know if the mods are really mergeable. I just wanted to point out that there is still a conflict with Cultural Overhaul, with the lite or without the lite version.

oh, starnet fixes that? cool

It doesn't, no. That comes with its own complications that, to be honest, are better solved from the get-go by mods like Starnet.

Does this change the vassal difficulty bonus? Vanilla vassals loose the difficulty bonus upon becoming a vassal. So if you are playing on anything higher than ensign, your vassals essentially have a handicap compared to normal empires.

Thanks, I did not expect you to do this as fast as you did. :)

Everyone Can Vassalise Lite added. Use it if you wish!

Now that you mention it, I'm not sure Plentiful Traditions edits any existing traditions.
Perhaps it is best to ignore that then. Thanks for the quick reply though.

It looks like Cultural Overhaul does something similar for Feudal Realms, is that right? I can easily make a version of this that's just the quality of life changes for that (and for anyone wanting a similar lightweight version of the mod).

For Plentiful Traditions is that just for giving the appropriate tradition swaps?

It would be a good idea to make a version that is compatible with the Cultural Overhaul mod.
And the Plentiful Traditions mod as well.
