LeBlaque -> I think I broke City Victory Conditions... (5/5/2007 7:07:16 PM) Uh, in a prior thread I indicated I did some modifications to the theatre column in the acwprovinces.txt file, re-aranging the "theatres of war" to try to see AI impact. Well... I have noticed that when I captured a few cities in Penn. (Pittsburg, Harrisburg) and one in Delaware (where I moved these provinces, I believe, into a "new breadbasket theatre") it appears I am no longer getting Victory Condition points for capturing these cities. Is this score screw-up possible based on the one column I modified? Is there a work-around as I'd like to try these revisions. On a separate note, however, I'll return to the "vanilla" .txt files with the newest beta patch. Nevertheless, can someone answer my question above? I thought some of these files were moddable to some degree. Regards, LeBlaque

ericbabe -> RE: I think I broke City Victory Conditions... (5/5/2007 7:14:05 PM) A change of theater shouldn't affect victory points, but it's possible some other value that does affect victory points was inadvertently modified.  Are you getting VPs for capturing any Northern cities?

LeBlaque -> RE: I think I broke City Victory Conditions... (5/5/2007 10:56:10 PM) I haven't captured any "Northern Cities" other than the ones I mentioned. Two were capitals (Harrisburg, Delaware) so I should have had at least 6 VP points, I think, for these two cities and I only have a total of 3 VP now, only ONE POINT being for cities captured. In regard to inadvertently modifying something that might impact VP-- I can only surmise that that would occur to the left or right by ONE column of the THEATRE column in the acwprovinces.txt. Can anything there mess up VP? I really didn't do a lot of other tweaking... If you wish, I can zip and send the last save game and/or an Excel of the acwprovinces.txt On a seperate note related to the AI: The Army of the Potomac didn't make a move to stop me from seiging and taking Harrisburg and Delaware (came via Cumberland). I was very surprised by this particularly given the "Iron Worth" of Harrisburg. I felt like they just watched me. Presently I have the USA Capital all but surrounded.... Regards, LeBlaque
