Making a family tree with a under age faction leader

[TNZ]

I was trying to make a historically accurate family tree that has a faction leader who is ten years of age, using the ‘off_map, current_leader’ code from the Britannia Campaign. The faction leader is ten years of age and the game does not crash:

You even get the character comes of age message. But because of the way the ‘off_map, current_leader’ code works, you will need to add a campaign script that does this:

;Set the ‘I_TurnNumber’ to the turn that Valentinianus comes of age.

	monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType venice
		and I_TurnNumber = 36
		send_character_off_map Valentinianus

i think the problem is the age.. you just can't make someone being the leader so young

[TNZ]

Swagger: it works the faction leader is ten years of age and the game does not crash. The ‘off_map, current_leader’ code makes him being under age not a problem.

[Swagger]

is that so?


then this is also good news for me mod

[Swagger]

is there also a ''current_heir'' code?

[Gigantus]

Is he marked as leader on the family tree?

[TNZ]

Yes:

The attached screenshots show:

Faction heir Age 14: Euric is the faction heir.

Faction Leader Age 15: With his father death Euric becomes the faction leader.

Faction Leader Age 16: Euric had come of age and it the faction leader.

[Gigantus]

It appears he is the heir, not the leader, in the first pic. Guess that got to do with the logic of the game engine: how can the father not be the leader if the son is supposed to be the leader?

[TNZ]

gigantus: the screenshots above illustrate this:

Interesting. Have you tried playing with those trees and see how the game reacts? It seems like the game enjoys throwing up adoptions when you have few generals, and above you seem to have none, yet there's no one who can act as benefactor.

[TNZ]

When Euric is under age he cannot adopt and therefore no adoptions are offered. See the attached screenshot.

[TNZ]

is there also a ''current_heir'' code?

Swagger: Yes

character_record		Euric,  male, age 14, off_map, current_heir

[Swagger]

i had already tested this


thanks anyway
