How much "pain" is this causing you?
1

Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
As Jarl Ivar, I conquered a bunch of territory, and granted land to my 3 heirs (1st son, 2nd son, and grandson from my deceased 3rd son).
While being at war, before peacing out, I granted them all a Jarldom, which gave them independance.
And as soon as I peaced out, each of them created his own Cadet Branch, including my Primary Heir.

The 3 of them break the requirement : "All ancestors of the character are dead"
The Primary Heir also breaks the requirement : "The character must not stand to inherit any of their current House Head's titles"

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
As a Norse, conquer stuff, grand heirs independance, leave on a Varangian Adventure, win.

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
I think the problem might be that for a split second, when the demands are being enforced, I first forfeit all my old titles and then usurp the title of the land I'm invading, so for a moment I am technically landless, which never happens otherwise, and might throw a wrench on the Cadet Branch requirements ?

Although it's not the first time I have abused the Varangian Adventure mechanic, and it's the first time this happens to me.

I have attached a save game
Yes

I've had a primary heir create a cadet branch as well, despite having living ancestors and being in line for titles. In this case, the heir had an existing county that he inherited from his mother, so he was a vassal in another realm before inheriting better titles from his dad.
 
Hey Chatoustikmou, peezmachine,

Thanks for reporting these instances! We've added the issue to our database and will be looking into it, as your Heirs should not be creating their own Cadet Branches. If you notice this happening again, feel free to reply and let us know.

Cheers!
