I agree. I think a faction dispute should almost guarantee war. In most circumstances they are claiming your homeland. so I'd make it appropriately extreme, like 100-150

A culture dispute could be 5-15. Too low and it's irrelevant for smaller cultures, too high it guarantees war with larger ones. Ideally a culture specific number would be best. I feel most cultures would be very concerned when you own 25-50% of their cultural land. Wood elves should lorefuly kill just about anything coming into athel loren, let alone claiming a region.

With this thinking I'd make reginal dispute's their own penalty, while reginal disputes are important their often not directly threatening your homeland. Maybe -50, and not be able to stack?

Great idea, but I agree that the penalties are too small. Currently you can easily offset them by trading, gifts. etc.

I edited the script to make the dispute values stack.
I don't see anything effecting affinity in the code (unless I'm blind).

I'll see how it goes...

I believe it's represented in "Ruler's bias to the faction", not aversion and affinity.

Thanks for the reply. I never ended up testing it because I didn't realize it was ME only.
