Bug report Inheritance bug when creating Merchant Republic vassals

[Sauron The Hippy]

In my current campaign I'm playing as a Shia Emperor, so Iqta government. On 3 separate occasions I have created merchant republic vassals, and upon doing that my heir is always immediately disinherited and I become his heir for all titles.

I'm new to the forums and couldn't find where to post bugs, so if this isn't the place then sorry.

Is the heir the one who is a patrician ?

You can fix this by saving, exiting and reloading your game.

I'm not sure what will happen if you die while the succession is incorrectly calculated, so you should probably do the save/reload asap.

EDIT - Also, FYI, the bug report forum is here. You need to register your game on these forums to get access.

That bug has bin in the game since mr gov type was introduced

Is the MR vassal one of your kids?

Restarting the game helps. Thanks everyone.

My heir was not the MR, he just owned a single county but restart fixes it all

I don't think this had ever caused any real effects, apart from confusing the player.
It's basically just a temporary visual issue until the next inheritance check or reload, but should of course be fixed in the end.
Hopefully...but i doubt it will happen.
It's such an old bug.
