Modding info/work required

Alright, so I'm looking to dramatically increase the negative consequences of raising income taxes ingame, like auto prompting election losses, etc and making weapons trade requirements much lower as far as DR goes.

Can only give me a hint as to where to start? or a paypal accnt # so I can simply throw money at the problem and get someone else to do it for me?

After searching I think the GWorldBehavior::Iterate_Gvt_Approval_Expected() sub in sp2_world_behavior.cpp is where the approval change is calculated. I've no idea how you want to implement stuff, but setting PourcObjTaxesRaw to a higher negative number would probably give lower relations for all tax levels. Or you could try some fancy formulas to give more relations drop to higher taxes.

Auto prompting elections loss would need you to have a trigger in the GDataControlLayer::ChangePersonalIncomeTax sub in sp2_data_control_layer.cpp.

To make weapons trade relations lower search for GAI::HandleWeaponTradeOffer in sp2_ai.cpp. In that sub there is a line REAL32 l_fMinimumRelations = SP2::c_fRelationsFriend; I think you have to change 'Friend' to whichever of the variables you want from sp2_constants.h (e.g. 'Like' for 40, or you can even change these variables).

I haven't tested any of this out, so good luck if you want to try.
