Hello,
Have been combing the boards looking for a way to change TXT key data values using LUA. I've seen some people saying the localization data base with the text values is not cached at game start, which sounds promising.
I am working on a mod with several maps, each covering a ~3 year period of time from 1799 AD to 1815 AD. Being the lazy slob I am, I'm trying to use a single mod to define the player civs and minor civs for all of these maps.
Due to the historical nature of the minor civs changing names from the time frame covered in the first map to the time frame covered in the last map, some of the minor civs need a different historical name and adjective on different maps.
For example, on the first map, a city state has a description of "Tuscany", adjective of "Tuscan". On the next map, the same city state needs to use a description of "Eturia", adjective of "Eturian".
I've experimented and can't seem to find the correct Event and/or Method to use to get this to work. Appreciate it if someone can tell me if this is at least possible, and if so which LUA construct I need to use to get it working. I promise shared designer credit on the mod!
Thanks again,
sman
