ai_army files
Supposedly we can edit the scores that the AI will judge provinces by. Like where they should move their armies.

This the example by Paradox

#Dummy example (add 0 or 0*100)
province = {
war = {
active = {
is_at_war = yes
}
eval_add = {
factor = 0
modifier = {
factor = 100
is_in_capital_area = yes
}
}
}
}


but I have tried similar things and it seems to have no effect. So I wonder if these are not being used anymore?

They are used, and they work. They do seem a bit limited though.

One thing to note, as explained in the vanilla comments, the AI will pick the province with the lowest score, not the highest. So in this case here, AI would try to avoid going into provinces connected to the capital of their owner by land. At least assuming the 100 doesn't multiply but add. If it multiplies, it wouldn't do anything because the value would still be 0.

Oh yeah that makes sense, but I have tried modifying numbers to all sorts and it just doesn't seem to change anything when looking at the armyeval mapmode.

Do you have any working examples? I am wondering if the game is just not reading my ai_army files

ah seems to be working actually, problem is having to switch tags to get the scripted additions to show up

There is a map mode you can switch to via console (also mentioned in the vanilla comments) and then pick an army in that mode to see the AI evaluation.

Though the ai_army stuff is only updated at certain situations, not constantly. Those again are mentioned in the vanilla comments.
