Problem with characters coming of age in BI

[Beunhaas]

In making the Slavs playable from the start as a horde in BI, I tried making a functional family tree for them. However, after the first son comes of age (he's 14 at game start), all of the rest of the sons stay kids forever, while they do age in years . Then, after settling in a conquered city, all of the kids above age 16 come of age all at once. Any ideas what I did wrong and how can I stop this and just make them come of age in the horde, like it's supposed to work?

Thx

Are slavs still "spawned_on_event" in descr_sm_factions.txt?

[Beunhaas]

Good thinking, but no, I changed that already..

Any other ideas? I tried a lot of things, but nothing seems to solve anything about it

On another note, I just found out that my Slavs are 'neutral' towards Rebels, while they are listed as being at war with each other in descr_strat. Any ideas on fixing this?

Thx!

Sounds like you have an error in the coding in DS - the faction relations not translating correcting is usially a sign they are not being read (i.e. something is wrong with them or prior to them in that file)

An easy way to check that is to add

script
campaign_script.txt

at the end of DS, then create campaign_script.txt in the same folder with just

script
console_command add_money 1
end_script

in it. If you don't get that 1 gold at the start of the campaign, you know it's not getting all the way through DS.

Or just insert lines that you know would cause an error with a message in various parts of the file and see which ones are not reported.

Thx for your help!

Somehow the problems fixed themselves, I can't remember what I changed but it works now. But thx anyway, having great fun now
