Council Meetings in Multiplayer

Sherfire · 17. Juni 2018

Hey guys,

Again, thanks Fajeth for putting together and maintaining this great mod.

My question, is there a way to reduce the frequency of Council Meetings in multiplayer? When creating a game the option does not seem to be present. In our multiplayer game it's driving us nuts to have to go to city hall all day for court and then a few hours later for elections, every day.

yes but only if you modify a file. If you are comfortable with that I can give you the instruction

Sherfire · 14. Juli 2018

Mate, that would be amazing! We are having such a great time with this megamod and MP game... but this one issue is what's killing it for us! Please give me the instructions.

Any news on this instruction? I hope you haven't forgotten about me!

there was a similar question in the steam board at the same time, I thought that was you. I currently cant find the answer I wrote, but I will post it probably tonight, okay?

Sherfire · 4. August 2018

That'd be great. In the mean time I will see if I can find the thread on steam. Thank you.

Open Scripts/GameState/GameStartUp.lua

find

Options:SetValueInt("FrequencyOfficeSessions",2)

set it to
Options:SetValueInt("FrequencyOfficeSessions",4)

so it will be a session every 4 rounds.

OK, and that will set it to work in that manner in a multiplayer game? Because in the MP game the default value appears to be set to 1 by default.

Fajeth · 6. August 2018

no, in MP the default value is the same as if you start up a SP game and not change any setting. Meaning: Right now you have a meeting every two rounds in MP if you use the Modpack. Trials are not affected by this setting, meaning: as a judge you will still have to walk to the townhall frequently

That's interesting because in our MP game we have elections each round, not every two. We are using the .95 mod pack.

So, if I change this setting from 2 to 4 will we then have elections every 4 rounds in our MP games?

Fajeth · 7. August 2018

that's pretty strange. maybe someone of you played a SP game with the 1 year setting and then created the MP session without restarting? Because all the mod does, is hiding the option to change the frequency - in SP and MP it uses the same data.

However: You both have to make the change otherwise it will go OOS. Session will be in the first round and then after 4 rounds.
