I swear to god that during a war I just engaged in I captured two children, then randsomed them back for 185 each, and yet my income didn't budge from 50 gold. I think I've seen this before too. Gotta be a bug or maybe I'm crazy.

When you have the Demand payment perk that allows you to ask for 300 gold for hooks, your ransoms all appear to be 300 gold too but what you actually get is what you'd normally get from that prisoner (50 for a count, 100 for a duke or whatever it is). I guess the ransom code is a bit bugged

This is a somewhat tedious process for large amounts of prisoners though.

I found out something semi-interesting, I had Ravenna as a theoratic duchy in my Catholic realm when I created a custom faith. I chose Spiritual head of Faith, and now it seems like the Spiritual HoF title is tied to whoever owns the bishopric of Ravenna. I can even assign this Pope as my Realm Priest, since I chose Temporal For Life for my chaplain selection. Here's what I observed: 1) While she has immense income, her taxable income appears to only be what she gets from her baron vassals and domain. This is the income based on "Level of Devotion". This means that having a Vassal Pope is nowhere near as strong as it was in CK2. Interestingly the UI on her profile claims she pays taxes to herself. 2) However, I also still get taxes from the realm's temple holdings, which seems to be counted completely separately. It doesn't appear to be tied to Level of Devotion, it's tied to Opinion as normal. Really it's just nice having a landed Pope again. On a related note, somehow the Catholic Papacy became a Republic. I have no idea how this happened, except that when I took Rome away from him I made sure he had the little island duchy of Mallorca so he'd still be landed in case of Crusades so I could siege him down for an easy +50% war score. Don't really know why he's a republic, because none of his counties have a city capital. But then, none of them have temples either, just castles and one city (all of which the Catholic Pope holds directly). Being a Republic doesn't seem to change much about the Pope, he's still doing normal Pope stuff but he pays me Republican taxes. Which is probably for the best, since as a Theocratic vassal I'd doubt he'd give me much considering we don't share a faith.

He started out with Charming so I decided to try and get his Diplomacy stat as high as I could. From birth, I warded him under a Genius with 17 Diplomacy and 11 Learning. Diplomacy was the default education focus so I never changed it. After 16 years of tutelage the heir ended up with 2 Diplomacy and Naive Appeaser (1 star Diplomacy Education trait) So yeah, that post is bullshit or they have made significant changes to the way this works.

So let's run the numbers then. Genius 17 primary / 11 learning educator = 60 + 15 (genius) + 0.4 * 17 + 0.2 * 11 + 20 (trait match) = 104 vs 40 odds = 72.22% rank up per roll We assume you assign your guardian when you get the popup at age 6. This is too late for the age 6 roll, which then occurs at 60 + 20 (trait match) / 40 + 20 (no guardian) = 57.14% Then you get 9 rolls of 72.22% If you succeed at your first no bonus roll, then consider the chance of getting 4/9 or less on the rest of the rolls is 7.39% 0.5714 * 0.0739 = 4.22% If you fail at your first roll, then consider the chance of 5/9 or less on the rest (22.13%) 0.4286 * 0.2213 = 9.48% Overall that's a 13.7% of getting a tier 2 education or lower for your kid. lurksion fucked around with this message at 07:52 on Nov 12, 2020 |

I assigned the guardian at age 1. I befriended the genius about 6 months after the kid was born and immediately made him the tutor. The tutor is still alive at like age 53

Is there a way in CK3, be it mods or file editing or whatever, to change the color of your realm, specifically if it's a created empire (not a de jure one)? My wife's game it ended up that the color of her empire is nearly identical to two very large kingdoms on either side of her and it makes looking at the map rather difficult. I tried editing a couple things in landed_titles but I don't think they affect custom empires, and the saves are no longer plain text.

strong bird posted:heres the skinny: Thank you! I will file that away for later. She ended up just creating the "real" Mali (which I think then pulled from what we'd changed the landed_titles too because it's really close and not what I thought it was previously) and destroyed the custom one because she had a billion prestige to waste and met the requirements. This is definitely helpful though. For clarity btw, where do I put colormod.ck3?

One thing I found when modding CoAs is that there seems to be a limit on how many elements you can have. I tried recreating the CoA for Syria from CK1 (Cross of Jerusalem on a red background, three gold fleurs on a blue chief, but the game would invariably crash any time I tried to insert a coat of arms with this many elements. Thankfully the alcantara cross is pretty cool looking so I stuck with that. Visible in the battle picture I posted last page: I'm really looking forward to the time when they get a coat of arms designer released so I don't have to do the main menu/save list dance as I get the thing looking right. Shame it's not next patch but ruler designer is cool too.

Found a bug with the Find A Spouse filters. I've been marrying off extra daughters/sisters/etc matrilinealy to unlanded men that are heirs to various titles. To find these men I've been filtering the list for anyone with a claim and scrolling through, checking the suitors' tooltips to see if they're first in line to inherit anything. I've done this so much there are now a lot of my dynasts out there, and when I try to filter out my dynasty it doesn't actually do anything. If I filter it to just men of my dynasty then the entire list is empty, so there's definitely something wrong with the dynasty filter. Edit: Found another UI bug. Inspecting the tooltip for a character's health, and then checking the tooltip for health modifiers from religious tenets/doctrine, will name the player's religion in the Doctrine's tooltip instead of the correct one.

comedyblissoption posted:I'm extremely not a fan of this. It was only a 17 month war for a duchy but still... Yeah, this happens because you can't find an army to defeat, or don't get lucky with prisoners. Usually because the defender is in multiple wars. IMO, the size of the wargoal should strongly affect warscore. Like I declared a war over Alexandria and I needed a similar number of occupied counties just to take one county!

Could someone with more knowledge of programming/save editing please tell me why there's not a "change realm color" mod on the workshop? If it's easy to save edit, shouldn't that imply adding the function to the game should only be a step or so harder? I know very, very little about these things so I could be very obviously wrong, but I would like to know.

You would have to create a mod that has a decision to change color, which then creates a new dynamic title with the appropriate color to replace your existing one. It would then need to copy de jure vassals/liege, title history, title laws, claimants, etc. It's a relatively complex set of actions, so I'm guessing no one has bothered to create it.
