Known bugs

Notes to self:
- Varangian commander sometimes doesn't have martial education
- Dismantle senate in GUI needs fix and point to decision tab
- Custom character needs to work

a lot of the courtier positions added by this mod seem to be broken, giving none of the liege effects

Yes that's something 1.11 changed, currently updating the mod since it changed a lot. Mostly stuck on trying to fix one crash bug.

Can't say for sure that it is a bug, but something very weird is going on with succession. When someone dies, title doesn't go to the expected family member but some seemingly random dynasty member. Character A died and it didn't go to his firstborn son character B but his second born son C, only after C died B got it and when B died it didn't go to their younger brother D, but went to character E who is from a different branch of the dynasty. For another title, my uncle died and it didn't go to his two sons, but to me, his nephew.

Edit: Forgot to add, using Cultures Expanded and the load order is what they suggested.

Was it the emperor who died and had titles transferred seemingly randomly?

No, no problem with emperor succession, it elects as it's supposed to. I wasn't playing Byzantine when I noticed it either, happened with Bulgaria and one of the Karling kingdoms, can't remember which, also noticed something like that with one duchy title in Byzantine Empire. It could perhaps be related to Cultures Expanded, though if it's that, can't say whether it's a compatibility issue or something from that mod alone as I've only ever played that mod together with yours.

I'll take a look again, but it shouldn't be an issue with anything outside of the Byzantine Empire.

I was going to post this a couple of days ago but kind of forgot, I have another thing to add on this as it happened again in a new game. Almost all of these in both games seems to have involved born in the purple trait as either the person who inherited or their mother(or in one case both) had the trait born in the purple. While I can see no reason why it should effect any succession beyond the Empire's, especially the mother having that trait, this seems to be the case.

For the mothers having the trait: I've seen several children whose mothers had the trait born in the purple get the primary title of their father instead of their elder half brothers whose mothers didn't carry the title. It didn't happen with all the mothers with born in the purple trait but in all the cases of it happening that I've spotted, the mother had born in the purple trait. I've checked title history to see whether they were installed by faction demand etc and no, they inherited straight from their father, passing over their older brother.


For the children having the trait: I can't remember the examples for this from the game that made me post this possible bug, (although there were two cases in that too) but in my last game I have another example of this happen:

My wife(who was also born in the purple) became an empress, we previously had a son who was born before her becoming an empress and we had another son who was born after her becoming empress. Once born, our son with born in the purple trait became my primary heir over his brother.

Edit: forgot to add, my wife lost the throne some 10 years after his birth and he was still my heir, I've decided to check whether it will indeed be the case because sometimes game doesn't update the list of succession shown to the player (although he shouldn't have become my heir in the first place) but when succession happens it happens correctly and well... son with born in the purple trait got my primary title.

At least some of the vassals of realms that manage to breakaway from the ERE keep imperial autocracy (I've never seen it happen with top realm).

Is it just me or do you always seem to start with 0 legitimacy

Custom character ?

I now this isn't any essential issue but, this mod now crashes when loaded alongside RICE

Numbers for the retinue offensive/defensive/screen values are not shown. At first I thought this is perhaps due to running it along with cultures expanded but starting a game with this mod alone, the issue is still there.

Could you send me a screenshot?
