[Kei] Culture and Faith Granularity

Always wondered why counties switched faiths and cultures abruptly, without any trace of the previous ones ?
This mod was created in order to improve faiths and cultures granularities, increasing the depth of this facet of the game.

• Any number of faiths and cultures at province level, displayed in the county view.
• Conversions happen progressively at province level, and it becomes very slow to completely convert a province and remove minority faiths/cultures.
• Ability to start councillor tasks directly in the province faiths/cultures view.
• Individual faith and culture map modes, displaying their granularity in the world.

• Each province has a level of faith tension and culture tension, encompassing the population dissatisfaction (regarding their faith and culture) towards the county holder.
• Those tensions will evolve depending on the actions of their lieges (e.g. declaring wars) and progressively drift towards their baseline.
• The higher the tensions, the greater the province maluses (decrease in Popular Opinion, Development growth, Holding taxes, Control decline).
• Faith Tension baseline depends on the faiths hostility and doctrines.
• Culture Tension baseline depends on the cultures acceptances and whether or not the county holder can speak the culture language.
• Each realm can change their Tolerance Laws towards different cultures and faiths, with benefits and drawbacks.
• Multicultural realms where tension remain low will gain benefits depending on the cultures it contains.

The mod should fully work in multiplayer.

For now, minority faiths and minority cultures are set at game start from nearby provinces and using holy sites, as I am not a specialist in researching the way the cultures and religions were in history.
Either people can make their custom setup by using the mod scripted effects, or a collaborative historical project can be made to have as much minorities and complexity represented in the game as possible.

For existing savegames: Play the game until the next 1st January, the religious and cultural minorities will setup then. (The map modes won't work in this case because of modding limitations)

• More ways to decrease tensions locally, such as special province laws/edicts.
• Longer-distance migrations
• Clergy demands and interference

Compatibility Patch Mods Thread

Fully compatible with my Enhanced County View mod.

This mod tries to be as compatible as possible.
However, due to the way modding is handled in this game, other mods might need to be modified to allow compatibility.

It is not compatible with mods that edit steward or court chapain tasks.
It does not depend on having vanilla faiths/cultures/counties, but uses the vanilla triggers/values for its systems.
It mostly works with Total Conversion Mods if loaded below in the playset, although the systems would need an additional compatibility mod.

Important vanilla files:

Other files being replaced would not break the mod main functionality.
More information in the compatibility.txt file in the mod.

• Starting a councillor task from the council menu gives less information about the task (modding doesn't allow province level task selection). Starting a task from the new windows should be the preferred way.
• Cultural acceptance promotion task changes will be displayed in "Recent Changes" instead of "Yearly Change" breakdown.
• The faiths and cultures display is unfortunately disabled in observer mode (Issue with scripted guis).

Thanks to the Mod Co-op and the Paradox Modding Wiki for their help.
