}
the name x and description y noted in the syntax are defined in a separate provi

type .

<POP Scope>
Base definition of POPs is by workforce :
syntax : workforce_type = { militancy/consciousness = x }
example : artisans = { consciousness = 1 }
gives all artisans a +1 gain in consciousness
any_pop
affects all pops with the defined limits of religion or culture
Syntax : any_pop = {
limit = { has_pop_religion = X/has_pop_culture = X }
militancy/consciousness = X
}
gives all POPs with the religion or culture tag the change in POP Mil or conscio
usness
ex
any_pop = { limit = { has_pop_religion = hindu } militancy = 1 }

All Hindus in country will get +1 MIL.

this can also be used to target specific workforces
artisans = { limit = { has_pop_religion = hindu } militancy = 1 }
all Hindu artisans will get 1 militancy
any_pop = { scaled_militancy = { factor = X ideology = name } }
will increase or decrease the amount of militancy all classes of POPs will get e
quivalent to factor*% of that pop that is that ideology
Ex
any_pop = { scaled_militancy = { factor = 1 ideology = liberal } }
If 20% of the POPs are liberal, this command will give a +0.20 MIL gain to all p
ops
ideology can be replaced with political issue, and for unemployed (fixed syntax
: unemployment = 1).
Ex
any_pop = { scaled_militancy = { factor = 1 unemployment = 1 } }
If 20% of your POPs are unemployed, then this effect will give a +0.20 MIL boost
to all POPs
any_pop = { scaled_militancy = { factor = 1 issue = atheism } }
If 20% of your POPs have atheism as their dominant issue, then this effect will
give a +0.20 MIL boost to all POPs
this can also be used to target specific workforces
artisans = { scaled_militancy = { factor = 1 unemployment = 1 } }
if 20% of artisans are unemployed, then this effect will give +0.20 MIL to all a
rtisans
the factor can be any number, positive for increase, negative to decrease, and c
an be partial, not only integers.
any_pop = { scaled_militancy = { factor = 0.2 ideology = liberal } }
any_pop = { scaled_militancy = { factor = -2 ideology = liberal } }
If 50% of pops are liberal, the first will give +0.1 MIL boost to all pops, the
second will give a -1.0 MIL decline.
Consciousness behaves the same way, with the following syntax
any_pop = { scaled_consciousness = { factor = X ideology = name } }
so
any_pop = { scaled_ consciousness = { factor = 1 ideology = liberal } }
If 20% of the POPs are liberal, this command will give a +0.20 CON gain to all p
