Description
Updated for 1.16
Information
A small mod that takes note of where exactly every character is born (specifically via event), and displays this location in the birth date tooltip.

This applies to every character born after game start for as long as they are alive. Historical characters at game start can also have birth locations, however these have to be added manually by me.

- Birth locations are 'lost' on character death and will no longer display.
- Only a handful of historical characters at game start have birth locations so far. If you have any suggestions for missing birth locations of historical characters, by all means let me know and I'll add it.

If you have any other suggestions for the mod, I'm open to exploring them further. For historical character birthplace suggestions please use this discussion.

Original idea suggested by 9__Erebus.

Thanks to Frazesco for revised German translations.

What's New?
The newest update (1.6.2) updated comaptibility with CK3 1.13 and Roads to Power. I've also just barely started to add Birthpalces for starting characters in the new bookmark however the vast majority are still missing. Currently I've only added birthpalces for the Capetians (France), some Plantagenets (England), Hohenstaufens (Barbarossa's fam in the HRE), and the Basileus of Byzantium and his kids. However as always, all new characters born after the start of the game should get birthplaces as normal.

The last update (1.6) added very rough translations for Spanish, French, and German. Please let me know how to improve these translations if necessary as I by no means speak these languages and tentatively relied on online resources to create what seemed to be suitable translations.

Mod Compatibility
The mod is compatible with any other mod that doesn't touch the character window (window_character.gui) NOW ALSO: the 'game_rule_create_spouse_and_children' which has been edited to assign birthplaces to generated families on game start. Otherwise loading this mod last might still work (no guarantees), but other mod stuff in the character window (e.g. new tabs, different layouts, etc.) will be overwritten.

Modders seeking to add compatibility with this mod can check for the global variable 'hometowns_is_loaded' which is set on_game_start.

Add-Ons
NEW: Elder Kings 2 Addon
This addon is highly recommended as it serves as a compatch as opposed to just adding starting character birthplaces.

LotR: Realms in Exile Addon
This addon is highly recommended as it serves as a compatch as opposed to just adding starting character birthplaces.

A Game of Thrones Addon
This addon is optional and only serves to add birthplaces for starting characters in AGOT.



If you've created an addon, feel free to share it here.

@vidz99 sorry to hear that. I'm fairly busy with work at the moment, but I'll try update it with a fix at some point. Sorry I'm not sure when that will be though.

There is the following error:
[title_links.cpp:201]: Failed to fetch a valid landed title 'b_wurttemburg' at location 'file: events/hometowns_events.txt line: 263 (hometowns.01:immediate)'

The landed title should be called 'b_wurttemberg' with an 'e'.

Greeting ! I am fan of your mods, I want more Chinese player to use your mod. So I've translated your mod in Chinese, could you please add a link in description?

Here's my Chinese translation: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3090564070

hello, could you pack your change to a template like
template hometown_tooltip{
tooltip = "[SelectLocalization( Character.MakeScope.Var('hometowns_birthplace').IsSet, 'HOMETOWNS_BIRTHPLACE_TOOLTIP', 'VANILLA_BIRTHPLACE_TOOLTIP' )]"
}
so other mod can call it to compatible with hometown without a compatch?

@Cyberbear That yellow triangle in the launcher really has no basis on anything and should be removed by Paradox. The mod is updated to 1.14, all parts of 1.14.

Can you please update it for 1.14.2.2, just so tthe launcher doesn'ty keep yelling at me that it is out of date? :)
