I'm trying to figure out how the relationship between companions is set during conversations. The conversationbundle and stringtable files offer condition checks for the relationship parameters, but nothing that sets them or the reaction strength.

 

Where can I find those?

Never mind. I figured it out. Its the Void TriggerTopic script. It works like this...

        [ScriptParam0("Speaker", "The character object speaking.", "b1a8e901-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", Scripts.BrowserType.ObjectGuid)]
        [ScriptParam1("Topic", "The topic to trigger.", "", "56878498-81a5-4140-86b6-01cfd09041f1", Scripts.BrowserType.GameData)]
        [ScriptParam2("Strength", "Strength of the change.", "71c858fe-7c4b-432a-a105-c518319eaed7", "32e5c672-85db-423f-b363-71c8a08674fc", Scripts.BrowserType.GameData)]
        [ScriptParam3("Include Reaction Text", "If set, a reaction from the companion will automatically be included in the node text.", true)]

        public static void TriggerTopic(Guid speakerGuid, Guid topicGuid, Guid strengthGuid, bool includeReactionText)

I have a new problem. I wanted to change the reaction strength for Pallegina on some conversations with Xoti. To my surprise I found the reaction strength to be preset for each reaction. Pallegina only have this reaction strength for piety

 

{"$type":"Game.GameData.TopicGameData, Assembly-CSharp",
"DebugName":"Pro-Gods",
"ID":"94f2f608-a765-4e55-be0a-c3dddaa54d47",
"Components":[
{"$type":"Game.GameData.TopicComponent, Assembly-CSharp",
"Value":3,
"DisplayName":11,
"Icon":"gui/icons/gamesystems/pro_gods.png",
"CircularIcon":"gui/icons/gamesystems/rep_pro_gods.png",
"NegativeDescription":20,
"PositiveDescription":21}]},

 

I tried to create new reactions with different values, but my self made guid ids aren't recognized by the game.

 

Is it possible to create new entries?

The reputation change applied by any call to TriggerTopic is the product of three value:

  • The strength parameter to TriggerTopic
  • The inherent Value on the TopicGameData passed to TriggerTopic
  • The Weight assigned to the companion for that topic in CompanjonGameData.Topics.
If you wanted to change the reaction strength for a particular line, you'd want to change the ChangeStrengthGameData passed to TriggerTopic.  If you wanted to change the reaction strength of a companion to all occurrences of a particular topic, you want to change the Weight for that topic in their CompanionGameData.  And if you wanted to change the reaction strength globally for all companions to a particular topic, you could change the Value on the TopicGameData itself.

 

Creating new TopicGameData objects with different Values will actually create entirely new topics.  This is possible and should work, but the new object is an entirely separate topic from the one you based it on, and their values won't combine.

Weight of Opinion
Weak    =     c131acce-6af4-4d78-b0e2-48b26e6631b1    = 1 changeStrength
Strong    =    d8cd9f8e-5be6-4036-a8cb-48afbd7edc54    = 2 changeStrength

Reading the Wiki, it seems that topics are given a "Value" in their TopicGameData type. This is likely a bodge used to balance the occurances of conversations about each topic.

relationship change = (changeStrength * topicValue) * weight

 

 

So I suppose it's possible to make someone have NO opinion change on a particular topic by making a new weight with zero points in it and assigning that to the response instead of the default one. 

How would you deal with this in terms of ChangeStrengthID? I don't know how those work. I know they are (random?) text strings - strong pos/weak pos/strong neg/weak neg.

(I know Josh said he hated topics and would rather bin the entire system, but I think topics as a system is sound, but it seems that the particular topics themselves got warped over time into a real mess. How else can you explain "Pro-Immodesty" as a topic - it just doesn't seem to be the first topic to spring to mind!)

You can give even (for example) sourpuss Pallegina an appreciation of joviality:image.thumb.png.af7ccdcaa7d5e9d468e83c13f7dd9137.png
and... whatever Worldly is:

About the above post - I'm editing some tags that seemed out of place and I came across the UUID: e19a6f92-2165-4e34-be10-c65e8de970eb for strength, which wasn't included in your list. For reference, I found during the final Courier's Calling reference with Maia for Tekehu's reaction. He ended up with 3 negative pips on his relationship to Maia.

PS. Xoti is anti-Deceit, not pro-Deceit.

ChangeStrength is this part of the above post, sorry it's not so obvious:

Xoti is Pro-Deceit with a Negative value on it. It's weird - but that's how you do a negative reaction to something. 

Being Pro-Deceit negative means she reacts negatively when someone says something deceitful.

If she was anti-deceit she would approve when someone said something anti-deceit - like "I don't think we should lie" or whatever.

Oh that makes sense, thanks for clarifying - I didn't consider that there would be different tags for approving of anti-Deceit vs. disapproving of Deceit.

Incidentally, I find it odd that Maia approves of pro-Provincial views, given her character I'd say she's the complete opposite.
