I forget the exact file, but it's probably in event_modifiers, and there is an icon tag that can be applied, the icon number determines which of the icons is used, and which color is used.

Is there a way to add/remove them from the console tho

I don't see a "add_event_modifier" command or anything similar to it so I'm going to assume you need to trigger the event that sets it.

Unless "set_char_flag" does it.

Thumbs up I agree

It is crazy to me that so many DLC have come out and it's still impossible for Russia to have Russia-style succession in the engine.

clr_char_flag definitely doesn't do it, neither does set_char_flag iirc. If I knew what they were called I could probably look it up ugh

I think it would actually be a pretty cool DLC feature at some point just to add all sorts of different succession options. Plain old Primogeniture every time is boring.

Adoption would be a pretty cool addition to the game, I've always thought. It's not at all appropriate for feudal Western Europe, I believe (correct me if I'm wrong there), but a lot of states and cultures outside that area practised it in CK2's time period, and thought that adopted children were no less legitimate than biological children.

Well only really France and England didn't have adopted succession rites. They did happen in Germany and the Spanish kingdoms up to the 15th century not to mention the other kingdoms where it was normal.

Yeah, alternate succession systems would be baller. I love it when there's interesting ones like tanistry.

I'd also like it if stuff like iqta and calling vassals as allies instead of getting levies were up to laws, with benefits and drawbacks.

Edit: Ahahahaha, the last Karling male got ousted, leaving his sister, who was married to the Lombard king to inherit.

If she hadn't died a bit early, it would have meant the HRE under the Lombards without player intervention. So. loving. Close. And there's now revolts for Elective, of course, in both realms so it's relatively unlikely for their dad to get the titles.

Europe is a glorious clusterfuck, which suits me fine. As a bonus, try to spot my vassal on the pic.

It slows down map-painting world conquest, requires you to actually deal with your vassals rather than just going North Korea, and makes your enemies able to actually treat you like a threat. So yeah, it's great and plaza will hate it.

That's odd, I've been using them a lot recently to test the new sickness stuff and they've worked fine.

There's no console commands to add or removed character modifiers that I know off, but you can make an event to remove them and just fire that.

Ok so I have put in some 300 hours into this game and I can now reliably claw my way from a Count to a King all while castrating my wayward sons and killing my brothers. But how the gently caress do you deal with vassals attacking neighbors or inter-Ducal wars for titles that dont directly affect you. Is there any way through laws or national developments to make your counts less dickish in this regard? My only alternative is to somehow create a surplus of eunuchs to act as Counts.

Without Conclave you can prevent vassals from declaring war through crown authority, with Conclave through enforcing realm peace if the council has been empowered.

Mother fucker, I hate gavel kind. So I'm playing Kislev in the Warhammer mod and i'm killing it, conquering large parts of the north and gearing up to holy war the rest of the north gods worshippers. My empress dies at the old age of 79 but it's no biggie my heir is a brilliant lady with great stats and her heir is bright (but short) so the future is looking good for Kislev.

Nope. My heir inherits the empire title (which is primogen) but all of the Kislev kingdom and duchy goes to her sister so now I'm stuck with 2 garbage provinces I didn't even own before the inheritance and factions are lining up. What's worse is that I don't even have claims on Kislev.

Conclave is basically bringing the game into line with what Paradox always wanted the games to be like. If you agree with the game being too easy, if you wanted more drama, more problems, more poo poo-stirring, you'll like it.

I think it did make some things a bit too hard. But the council system is at least interesting.

gently caress, Paradox put in the goddamn effort to make a goddamn Will system so a player can actually gently caress around with and see what gets inherited and maybe change between the equivalent titles and not just have to find out how poo poo works when they die or having to hover over assholes to see who gets what. Seriously, have a button to click to see which of your lovely offspring gets what, why and let the player flit it around, assign more or less titles to kids and other things. How complicated can it be to just let the player see how things work and then let them influence it?

And for elective, showing which states will break off with inheritance.

Then making the will part optional as you move away from gavelkind to other things; like how maybe you want one of your nice sons to inherit a nice duchy, but don't feel like giving it to him now.

At least we're not the Thalmor (yet)
Conclave both makes vassal management easier and harder- easier, because you can avoid most civil wars by having your most powerful vassals (i.e. the only ones you're concerned about) on your Council, and giving said Council the ability to declare war. Harder because a few of the civil wars will now be for elective monarchy, and if it snowballs too hard you can lose basically all power to them- revocations, war declarations, executions, and even (lastly) the ability to fire your councilors.
