Disabling companion personality clashes and morality objections

[John25-]

Hi, I am looking for a way to disable some of these. I first changed npc characters in module_scripts.py, but it did nothing. I then disabled them, e.g.

        #(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_morality_type, tmt_egalitarian),  #borcha
        #(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_morality_value, 4),  #borcha
        #(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_2ary_morality_type, tmt_aristocratic),  #borcha
        #(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_2ary_morality_value, -1),
        #(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_personalityclash_object, "trp_npc7"),  #borcha - deshavi
        #(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_personalityclash2_object, "trp_npc16"),  #borcha - klethi
        #(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_personalitymatch_object, "trp_npc2"),  #borcha - marnid

But the conversations still take place, so I disabled them in module_dialogs.py as well, but this is what happens:

Is there a way to disable these dialogs or is it hardcoded?

easiest way: if you want for example disable
(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_personalityclash2_object, "trp_npc16"), #borcha - klethi
just replace the troop with one that never is in your party.
(troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_personalityclash2_object, "trp_dranton"), #borcha - klethi

also (troop_set_slot, "trp_npc1", slot_troop_2ary_morality_value, -1), is already disabled without commenting it.

That's right, but the issue remains the same. I still get the conversations

lol borcha complaining about dranton? i don't think so ^^
but yeah check the link above, same approach

Keep in mind that these are variables set at the beginning of a playthrough, so, if you are changing them and then loading a save, nothing will happen because game_start has already fired. You'll need to re-execute the initialize_npcs script for changes to take effect mid game.

No, complaining about me now
But I only have a few companions left in my mod, I have disabled the others so maybe that's related to the issue

 

[Tocan]

don't forget to change
(try_for_range, ":slot_addition", 0, "$number_of_npc_slots"), (store_add, ":slot", ":slot_addition", slot_troop_intro), (store_mul, ":string_addition", ":slot_addition", 16), #tocan: amount of companions (store_add, ":string", "str_npc1_intro", ":string_addition"), (val_add, ":string", ":npc"), (val_sub, ":string", companions_begin), (troop_set_slot, ":npc", ":slot", ":string"), (try_end),

 

[John25-]

I have tried with this change but I still get the conversations. Now instead of complaining about other companions or me they tell their background story

 

[Tocan]

keep the order of the companion strings, don't delete or move anything there. if you would add new companions follow the existing string pattern.
and as dstn mentioned, you need to start a new game.

or check the ms of my old mod, i had there definitely over 70 companions ^^

Thanks for the piece of advice. I have found the solution, and the issue was actually the post_battle_personality_clash. At the beginning I thought it was the whole complaint system but it was only this piece of coding in module_scripts.py, so here is what I have disabled:

Spoiler

            (try_begin),
                (gt, "$npc_with_personality_clash_2", 0),
                (try_begin),
                    (eq, "$cheat_mode", 1),
                    (display_message, "str_personality_clash_conversation_begins"),
                (try_end),
             
#                (try_begin),
#                    (main_party_has_troop, "$npc_with_personality_clash_2"),
#                    (assign, "$npc_map_talk_context", slot_troop_personalityclash2_state),
#                    (start_map_conversation, "$npc_with_personality_clash_2"),
#                (else_try),
#                    (assign, "$npc_with_personality_clash_2", 0),
#                (try_end),
            (else_try),
                (gt, "$npc_with_personality_match", 0),
                (try_begin),
                    (eq, "$cheat_mode", 1),
                    (display_message, "str_personality_match_conversation_begins"),
                (try_end),
                             
#                (try_begin),
#                    (main_party_has_troop, "$npc_with_personality_match"),
#                    (assign, "$npc_map_talk_context", slot_troop_personalitymatch_state),
#                    (start_map_conversation, "$npc_with_personality_match"),
#                (else_try),
#                    (assign, "$npc_with_personality_match", 0),
#                (try_end),
            (try_end),

And it works fine now, I don't get that post-battle map conversation

Edit - This can be added to a change in module_scripts.py that will disable complaints:

      (assign, "$disable_npc_complaints", 1),
