just soap

pure soap mod

The core content of the pure soap module revolves around the two core raw materials for soap making - oil and alkali. The module also adds content related to perfumes and cosmetics, because with the development of the times, these industries and the soap making industry have become increasingly closely linked.

Module functions:

2 new regional production resources: aromatic raw materials, obtained from various flower extracts, such as rose hydrosol, and essential oils extracted from jasmine, lavender, orange blossom and other flowers; palm oil, a trade product produced in West Africa in the later stages of the game. In the historical period corresponding to Europa Universalis 5, it was used locally both as cooking oil and for making black soap.

7 new producible goods: soap, perfume, tallow, potash, cosmetics, candles, and whale oil.

22 new trends of the times.

22 brand-new buildings are used to produce or consume the above-mentioned new commodities, including supporting facilities for lighthouses and urban street lights.

35 new dynamic historical events, with plots related to trade goods covering France, England, the Low Countries, Venice and the Ottoman Empire.

5 new random events have been added to the random event library.

Added mechanical lubrication maintenance consumption mechanism for later mills and factories.

Compatibility and other notes:

The pure soap module will overwrite 3 original files. The reason is that the current writing method of directly inserting/replacing the exclusive production method is very prone to a lot of bugs (it may also be that I have not found the correct implementation method yet):

production_glass.txt: Replace the wood required to produce glass with the same amount of potash.

production_pottery.txt: Replace the wood required for pottery with an equal amount of potash.

production_cloth.txt: Add potassium alkali as a raw material in the textile production recipe.

If other modules you use at the same time also cover these three files, just let other modules cover this module first; the worst result is that the above changes of this module will be invalid, and the core content of the game will not collapse.

This module will change the game verification code. It is recommended to open a new archive to play. Since the original content is only slightly modified, the supply and demand balance of various trade goods may take several months to stabilize in the game.

Pure trading goods series

The Pure Trading Goods Series is a set of modular modules designed to break down the abstract product settings of the original version and expand the trading goods system of Europa Universalis 5 to the maximum extent while covering as little as possible the original game files. You can freely mix and match as needed, and add any number and any combination of modules in the series to the game.
