Re: Setting Heirs to your preference
I noticed that there is no provision for a new selection when the successor dies before becoming heir - which will terminate the script. This is little script should take of that. It is advisable to remove the 'BattleGeneralKilled' monitor as that might trigger in tandem.
Code:declare_counter checking ; --- resetting the counter for 'Is the successor alive?' monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType slave set_counter checking 1 end_monitor ; --- Is the successor alive? monitor_event CharacterTurnEnd CharacterIsLocal and I_TurnNumber > 0 and Trait HeirCandidate > 0 set_counter checking 2 end_monitor ; --- The successor is dead, trigger new selection in next round monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionIsLocal and I_CompareCounter checking = 1 and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 end_monitor

Re: Script for selecting the heir
Excellent idea Gigantus! But I have a little problem. The event will be triggered without having a "adopted" General. I should add a counter that indicates that there is already a family member available.
But if I add the counter, there may be factions with large families that don't adopt anyone. I think that this could be a possible solution (balance the turns):
Code:declare_counter checking ; --- resetting the counter for 'Is the successor alive?' monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType slave set_counter checking 1 end_monitor ; --- Is the successor alive? monitor_event CharacterTurnEnd CharacterIsLocal and I_TurnNumber > 5 and Trait HeirCandidate > 0 set_counter checking 2 end_monitor ; --- The successor is dead, trigger new selection in next round monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionIsLocal and I_CompareCounter checking = 1 and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 end_monitor

Re: Script for selecting the heir
That sounds sensible - I have now altered the monitor to use an increasing counter ('repeat') to delay the selection process by five rounds.
Also added is a 'declined' monitor that sets the counter to zero and with a message that explains to the player that the selection process will be repeated in 5 rounds.
Another addition is the exclusion of factions with teutonic family tree as you will not be able to select a successor there (no family tree scroll).
No change in EDCT

Re: Script for selecting the heir
Good thinking Gigantus. But wouldn't it be simpler as well? Until no there has been an "adoption", the script will not act.
Code:declare_counter candidate declare_counter first_candidate declare_counter checking declare_counter general_adopted monitor_event CeasedFactionHeir CharacterIsLocal and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 end_monitor monitor_event BrotherAdopted CharacterIsLocal and I_TurnNumber >= 0 and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 and I_CompareCounter first_candidate = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 set_counter general_adopted 1 terminate_monitor end_monitor monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType slave set_counter checking 1 end_monitor monitor_event CharacterTurnEnd CharacterIsLocal and I_TurnNumber > 0 and Trait HeirCandidate > 0 set_counter checking 2 end_monitor monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionIsLocal and I_CompareCounter checking = 1 and I_CompareCounter general_adopted = 1 and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 end_monitor monitor_event EventCounter EventCounterType select_candidate_accepted and I_EventCounter select_candidate_accepted = 1 select_ui_element faction_button simulate_mouse_click lclick_down simulate_mouse_click lclick_up select_ui_element family_tree_button simulate_mouse_click lclick_down simulate_mouse_click lclick_up select_ui_element faction_button simulate_mouse_click lclick_down simulate_mouse_click lclick_up ui_flash_start family_tree_zoom_to_button set_event_counter select_candidate_accepted 0 set_counter candidate 1 end_monitor monitor_event CharacterSelected CharacterIsLocal and I_CompareCounter candidate = 1 and I_ScrollOpen family_tree_scroll and IsGeneral and not IsFactionLeader and not IsFactionHeir ui_flash_stop console_command give_trait this HeirCandidate 1 set_counter candidate 0 historic_event selected end_monitor
Regarding the "decline" option. I'm in favour of that if the user doesn't want to choose heir, not appear never more the option. Giving by understanding that he is not interested choose heir.
Code:declare_counter candidate declare_counter first_candidate declare_counter checking declare_counter general_adopted declare_counter decline_sh ...... monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionIsLocal and I_CompareCounter checking = 1 and I_CompareCounter general_adopted = 1 and I_CompareCounter decline_sh = 0 and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 end_monitor ...... monitor_event EventCounter EventCounterType select_candidate_declined and I_EventCounter select_candidate_declined = 1 set_counter decline_sh 1 end_monitor
On the option "teutonic family tree", would be significant to add it. Initially, I designed the script to the vanilla campaign and the four expansions. Obviously, if one adds the script in another mod, the user should customize it.
Code:not FactionType teutonic_order
P.S: And yes, the first option I had in mind. I warned in the Post #5 and it is updated at the end of the first post.

Re: Script for selecting the heir
Going the adopted route is a way (quite elegant if I may say so) - but it doesn't cover coming of age and marriage. I think I would rather delay the initial testing for a successor instead, I_TurnNumber > 10
As to the declining - you got a point there, there should be enough curiosity for any user to check it out at least once. Which means 'decline' should terminate the script. I think I will go the middle line - I'll use an incremental counter that will allow one repeat.
Code:declare_counter stop_select ; add a terminating "if" loop to all monitors if I_CompareCounter stop_select > 1 terminate_monitor end_if ; --- selection offer declined monitor_event EventCounter EventCounterType SELECT_CANDIDATE_declined and I_EventCounter SELECT_CANDIDATE_declined = 1 inc_counter stop_select 1 if I_CompareCounter stop_select > 1 set_event_counter SELECT_CANDIDATE_declined 0 terminate_monitor end_if if I_CompareCounter stop_select < 2 historic_event HE_SELECT_DECLINED set_event_counter SELECT_CANDIDATE_declined 0 set_counter repeat 0 end_if end_monitor

Re: Script for selecting the heir
Yes Stevietheconquer, thanks to Gigantus, this script already close to perfection.
By the way, I've been doing testing, and the marriage of the Princess with a general, triggers the event "BrotherAdopted". With adding this event, the needs would be covered.
Obviously, if in a Mod it starts with extensive family trees, the script must trigger at the beginning of the game.Code:monitor_event CharacterComesOfAge FactionIsLocal and IsGeneral and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 and I_CompareCounter first_candidate = 0 and I_CompareCounter active_heir_bucle = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 set_counter active_heir_bucle 1 terminate_monitor end_monitor monitor_event BrotherAdopted CharacterIsLocal and I_TurnNumber >= 0 and I_CompareCounter candidate = 0 and I_CompareCounter first_candidate = 0 and I_CompareCounter active_heir_bucle = 0 historic_event select_candidate true set_counter first_candidate 1 set_counter active_heir_bucle 1 terminate_monitor end_monitor

You will be pleased to know that I have used your (older version) script in Rise of three Kingdoms and have incorporated the newer version into Europa Barbaorum II (ver 2.03).

Yes, in principle I've updated it with this. I think it more practical. It covers all deaths of the candidate heir and always have an available character at the first selecting.

One more suggestion - upload the compressed file here at TWC, that way you can easily update it without having to bother about links and it will not get lost (like so many other good tutorials). The best section would be Minor Mods and Tweaks in the Medieval II Total War section.

Many thanks for the advice Gigantus. Actually I didn't know that an normal user could upload files, I thought it was for "Artifex", "Citizen" or other ranges. Now it's much more practical and elegant.

I have been making use of this for a while now - came very handy every time I updated one of my tutorials. No need to update links. Plus it's always a nice and cozy feeling when you look in your profile page, the 'download' section and see how many times it has been downloaded.

Re: Script for selecting the heir - (Update 24.07.2015)
Yes, it's true. In the case of this thread in particular is very useful, because whenever it is modified, the tabulations of the lines of code are unbalance.
By the way, If you have included the "CeasedFactionLeader" monitor, you need to delete it. It was an initial mistake in the script. It causes the appearance of two messages in the event of the death of the leader. With the death of the leader, also ceases the heir ("CeasedFactionHeir"), to become the new leader.

I wanted to ask you can your mod make a script for the annexation of the faction by making marriages for the fashion of DLV? And the script of the heir for DLV?
