AI Yuan Bo in Cathay - Start Position Change

Description
Many people dislike how the ruler of central Cathay starts in Lustria - especially how when you weren't playing as him, he had no cities in central Cathay and simply expanded in Lustria. Since Yuan Bo's campaign is themed around conquering the Geomantic Web and fighting lizardmen, I elected to make a mod that just makes Yuan Bo start in Cathay instead of Lustria on Immortal Empires when the AI is playing as him. This should help with immersion and help preserve Lustria's flavor.


Changes:
  • On Immortal Empires, AI Yuan Bo now starts in his capital of Shang-Wu instead of Lustria. His player-controlled dual start is left unchanged.
  • When not playing as Yuan Bo, the Blue Vipers take over his Lustria settlements, making them a major threat once more.
  • AI Yuan Bo now starts at war with the Jiangshi Rebels and is poised to conquer their territory during the early game.

Compatibility:
This mod should be compatible with any other mod that doesn't mess with the starting location of factions being moved, as it is almost entirely script-based. It is compatible with both Mixu's unlocker and Immortal Empires Expanded.

If you'd like this for the player, see Caesar's mod: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3037558811

+1 for the deportation of Gelt back into the Empire, Maybe to Hocland or something. Would be lovely.

Thanks for all your start position change mods, appreciated!: :steamthis:

@beast I like the mod that gives ai gelt the same dilemmas as the player gets. So there is a chance for him to move back by himself

@Beast, yeah I might move him to Akendorf or something when he's an AI if I see him mess with the campaign too much, not a bad idea.

Hes gonna start on cathay which i dont like, in my opinion he should stay in empire.

@Beast, what's wrong with Balthasar's new start?
Beast 17 Apr @ 5:44am 
Man, awesome mods, thanks you very much for this, i hope u will fix baltasar too after update drop.

@Awesome Starship, yeah definitely vanilla. I don't touch any of the rebel or startpos stuff, this is just a script that changes settlement ownership and army locatjons

@Porkenstein, actually it seems to be happening randomly. I just raided Shang Wu until a Jade Court Rebel army spawned and this time it was a regular army.

Weird bug, probably vanilla ?
Porkenstein  [author] 13 Mar @ 8:47am 
@Awesome Starship, that's an interesting bug but definitely not my doing
Antagonistes 13 Mar @ 3:49am 
The rebel army that spawns in Shang Wu whenever public order is too low and AI Yuan Bo has been wiped out is a caravan, thus it cannot move or attack the settlement and resurrect AI Yuan Bo.
