It literally read "We have won the war. Status Quo."
I wouldn't have been asking if it hadn't read "We have won the war," which, to me, seemed to tell me that, well, I won the war.

Late to the party but...

@Timrath status quo is not winning the war, that's neither side achieving their objectives and status quo is kept.

3.14159265?

3.8?

7,0?

6.0?

5.0?

4.0?

3.4?

3.3?

Seconded that this seems to work in 3.2, although it may require some reordering and reloading of your mod load order. I haven't actually declared war on anyone as of yet to test it out, but the CB is there.

You don't always receive the relic when you win a relic war.
I received one after winning my first war, but when I went to war again for the Miniature Galaxy, I didn't get it. The notification read: "We have won this war. Status Quo."
I used the console to play as the empire I had just defeated, to look at their relics. They still possessed the Miniature Galaxy, but they had recently activated it, and it was in cooldown. I guess you cannot capture relics while they're still in cooldown.

Nice!
Does the AI uses this as well as the Player?

3.1 seems working fine, i can declare war selecting a casus belli added by this mod

3.1?

3.0?

does this mod work with modded relics ?

Miniature Galaxy Relic is not being given when finishing the war.

Don't know much about Stellaris modding code's, but I assume it has something to do with line 265~296 of "scoots_relic_wars.txt" on the \common\war_goals, as it seems to not have specific outcome.

Thank you, should be fixed now.

@Scoot: Bug report: common/random_names/scoots_relic_wars.txt is missing a " on line 45

key = surveyor_war_names"

should instead be

key = "surveyor_war_names"

Thanks, I will.

Ok, I updated it for 2.8, it is all working on my end, but please let me know if there are any more issues.

Ok, I will look into updating it.

Sadly it seems to have broken in 2.8.
All options are locked with "Our war goal does not permit us to do this", even at 100 Acceptance.

I had to use surrender <country id> <war id> to end this eternal war.

Can you make make it so I can call for the enemy nation's surrender instead of having to conquer the whole damn empire pls.

Does this still work for 2.7?

Thanks for making this.
Unlike the other Relic War mods this one works with 2.6.2.

this mod works like a charm! :D unlike all the other ones: PJs :: Relic Wars does not work if you play as a machine empire and relic raider is just bad

Could you update it .I really like this feature.

It worked for me and AI uses it during war to try to claim my relic too. I couldn't claim relics from empires that had only relic power +200, I could claim relics from empire who relic power was above +1000. It also works in multi player coop if the others have it installed too. I didn't see an option to claim all relic but that could be because they didn't have more than one. This feedback is for 2.5.1 if anyone is wondering.

Just open the file with notepad, copy the contents then paste into https://pastebin.com/ and send me a link.

Uhh sure, how do I send it to you?

Just tried it and it is working fine - I loaded up an old save, had to wait a few days, and then when I clicked on declare war it was an available wargoal. Are you sure you all waited a few days to see if the war goal popped up? If you did, and it still didn't work, would you mind sending me the error.log in Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\logs?

Hi, I tried it out in my saved games. So far its not working. I'll start up a new game and give you feed back. Hope this is for version 2.5.1.

Yes, I tried declaring war, but there is no "(insert relic here) Casus Belli"

The casus belli is invisible - have you tried declaring war and seeing if it is a wargoal?

Does being a robot stop you from declaring war to steal relics?

I tried loading it up on a save I had, but None of the empires that said they had relics in the victory scoarboard screen had no Casus beli to go to war over it.

It should work just fine with existing saves.

Does it work with existing saves? or do you need a new save?

It works for me :)

Does this mod work?

Any empire

Can any empire use this wargoal, or only player controlled empires?

The targeted empire has to surrender - settling for status quo does nothing.

Does the targeted empire have to surrender in order for you to get the relic, or just settle for status quo?
