CDT if add a family tree to Jerusalem

[sysyphe]

Hi,
Starting in 1080, I let if Jerusalem is AI, the event that spawn Jerusalem in 1100.

While I made several changes, that allow human player to start the first crusade in western Europe, in 1080 with scattered units, all over europe.

The scirpts works fine, but as soon as I put yes to has_faimly_tree in descr_sm_factions.txt, I have a huge CTD, with nothing in the lof to help me.

Of course I added this ( and even try with three members and just first name ) in desc_strat:

faction    jerusalem, fortified caesar
ai_label         catholic
denari    2000
denari_kings_purse    2500

character_record    Isabelle, female, age 38, alive, never_a_leader

relative     Jean de Brienne,    Isabelle,    Alphonse de Brienne,    end

If I let no to has_family_tree, no ctd's or report in the log, I checked in the forum, to find answers, the names fit the desc_names, and I deleted, dat files, and map.rwm.

Thanks for your help.

Start simple and try to get it to load with just one general. Once you get that to work then follow this to add more.

I have always found family trees to be very tricky to edit. Even when the relative lines look exactly right, even the slightest misplaced tab stop can screw it all up. The easiest way I've found it to just copy and paste another faction's family tree and then just replacing all the names, being very careful to preserve all the spaces and tab stops.

You might want to read that tutorial I wrote as well then Caesar. Its by far the most detailed one out there.

[Caesar Clivus]

Looks like a great tutorial mate. Shame it wasn't around when I was working on the family trees for the CBUR mod .

[GrnEyedDvl]

Well I try to document everything I can, but I cant do it all at once lol

I'll try tonight. Does the fact that Human Jerusalem has no settlement at all at the begining of the campaign?

[sysyphe]

So the issue was that jerusalem faction had no settlement. As in the first crusade they shouldn't have one, I cheat... I gave Lyon ( a small rebel town in France at this date, then give it back to rebels, and spawn units in it ).

 monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionType jerusalem
        and FactionIsLocal
        and I_TurnNumber = 0
    
        console_command surrender_regions jerusalem

        terminate_monitor
    end_monitor

So the player see nothings and the first crusade can start. 

    monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionType jerusalem
        and I_SettlementOwner Lyon = slave

        create_unit Lyon, Mailed Knights, num 3, exp 2, arm 0, wep 0
        create_unit Lyon, Spear Militia,    num 2, exp 2, arm 0, wep 0        
        create_unit Lyon, Peasant Archers, num 2, exp 2, arm 0, wep 0
        create_unit Lyon, Sergeant Spearmen, num 2, exp 2, arm 0, wep 0
        create_unit Lyon, Crossbowmen, num 2, exp 2, arm 0, wep 0

        terminate_monitor
    end_monitor
