.:: bug - family members

[wiande]

hi,

i notice in my new game with seleucids,
in beginning i got like 1 candidate to adoption every turn, and some i didn't see in my family tree, i guess it's not normal,
once my faction leader died, i search who was the faction heir, and i see none, so i put the marker of someone, and after that i make my moves, and i see a faction member who got the trait disinhirated (sorry), so i search him on my family tree and he wasn't in it

Strange. I have never seen this happen in any RTW games. If you are not far in campaign you can restart it and see if this happens again.

BTW take a look how much children each family has. The limit is four. So if you have all the slots for the new children taken there might be that those new adopted members simply have no place to be put in. And as number of family members has the relation to the number of settlements you own you are getting lots of adoptions (due to high number of starting provinces). Try counting your named characters and the number of them in the family tree and compare it.

However that's just my hypothesis and maybe someone will know the true reason.

Are you scrolling to the right? The family tree can get wider than the screen can show all at once so there is a slider bar at the bottom allowing you to scroll to see more of the family tree.

It's possible there is more than one family tree. The UI only shows members of the ruling family.

@Artax:
Yeah me too, never saw this,
Yeah every family got 4 members
You may be right with your hyothesis,
i count 23 generals / governors, and there's 9 grown up generals/governors on my family tree.
Yeah i'm not far in the game, but i'm crushing damn ptolemaics !!!

@Augustus:
Yeah bro i scrolled.

@HoH:
Sure but as told with Artax, i never see that in a game before, so that's quit surprizing, i played lots of RTW, BI and RTR campaigns so that's why i'm surprized.

It is normal; from what I remember in an old version of RTR: PE I was playing (1.5 I think) the Seleucids started (as was explained to me) with more family members than the engine could accommodate as descendants of the faction leader, and therefore some were not shown in the family tree.
