    Default Help with a mini-mod.

    I began working on a very small mod for the RR/RC compilation for Stainless Steel today and I've run into a problem. The RR/RC compilation has an Early era, Late Era, Battle for the Baltic, Italian City-states, and 1450 campaign, what I am trying to do is change the names of the faction leaders for all factions in the 1450 and Late Era campaigns from the default names to historically accurate names and to make their family members' names match. I started with Venice, changing the faction leader "Pierto Ziani" to "Francesco Foscari" and the faction heir to "Bartolomo Ziani" to "Pasquale Malipiero" and I changed their children accordingly. Now whenever I go to start the 1450 campaign it doesn't start up. Does the fact that the faction leader and the faction heir have different last names create this problem or is it something else?

    Here is the section that I edited if you wish to check for mistakes.

    First of all what does your log say? Second did you check to make sure those names were listed descr_names.txt? Third if they weren't did you add the new names correctly to descr_names.txt and names.txt?

    I've fixed it, though the family tree is a bit akward now, when Francesco dies Pasquale takes over and then Francesco's son becomes Consigliere. It's not exactly historically accurate, but it's about as close as I think I can get without severly screwing up the family tree.

    Now I'm wokring on Hungary and the King's name won't show up, I'm sure I'll figure out the problem eventually.

    You can set a child as heir in the descr_strat file. Example:

    character_record Gondegusulus, male, age 1, alive, current_heir
