Legitimacy with Age

== What is it 这是干嘛的 ==

The mod grants an annual legitimacy boost to all landed counts and higher-ranked characters.

Taking an example of starting from a base level of 0 legitimacy, a character will get different legitimacy boost in four tiers: Aspiring, Recognized, Rightful, and finally, Ordained. I skip the True tier because the boost will be the same as Ordained. With no other factors affecting legitimacy, characters reach the Aspiring tier after 3 years, Recognized after 5 additional years, Rightful after 7 more years, and Ordained after 25 more years. It means that after taking the title for 40 years, the legitimacy level of the character will be Ordained.

这个mod的核心机制就是每年给所有有地的伯爵及以上级别的角色加合法性，以一个0级合法性的角色为基准，假设中途没有其他因素导致合法性增减，3年达到德不配位级别，再过5年达到合法合理级别，再过7年达到众望所归级别，再过25年达到天命所归级别。也就是说，假设时代和头衔等级都没有变化，拿到头衔之后40年就可以达到“天命所归”。

Dealing with scenarios involving era changes or title upgrades can be more complex, but the time to reach the expected legitimacy level generally remains consistent. This is because the mod calculates legitimacy increases based on the era and title as of January 1st each year, synchronizing with the game's delineation of legitimacy levels for characters. In essence, while this mod cannot prevent legitimacy levels from dropping, it ensures that the progression aligns with in-game circumstances.

对于跨越时代或者头衔升级的情况则比较复杂，但是达到预期等级的时间不会相差太多，因为本mod计算合法性的增加值是根据每年1月1日的时代和头衔确定的，与游戏对角色的合法性等级划定是同步的。简而言之，本mod无法防止合法性等级掉落。

Effective on both AI and players.

对AI角色和玩家角色都生效。

== Compatibility 兼容性 ==

Save compatible. Should be compatible with any other mods and any future game version, because I use the most fundamental mechanism to trigger the effect.

对已有存档兼容。兼容任何其他mod以及未来的游戏版本，因为我用的触发机制是最基础的（p社最不可能改的）。

Forgive me for the English description, since I'm too lazy to write it all by myself.

== Updates ==

2024/04/09: Delay the event for 1 to 16 days on January, because January 1st is so busy for the game that it may lag and crash. 延迟了事件的触发，在1月1号之后才触发，避免了1月1号集中跑事件以及自动存档而导致游戏过载崩溃。

2024/12/03: Updated for 1.14.*
