Empire DeJure Drift Bug

[mr_human_555]

Now, kingdoms cannot dejure drift into empire if the kingdom exists.

Situation:
1. I'm Emperor of Britannia AND King of Denmark.
2. Denmark is FULLY under my control. All Denmark duke-level titles do not exist.
3. Scandinavia doesn't exist

Problem:
1. Denmark doesn't drift to Britannia
2. I tried destroying Denmark title, and now it drifts into Britannia

Upload a save game where this is easilly reproduced to free file hosting site so the devs have easy test case.

I posted this in another bug thread.

They changed the dejure drift so that France doesnt leave Frankia.

The new rules for kingdoms are if a kingdom is part of a dejure empire and is at present not in it then it will drift out.
They changed it so that you wouldnt drift out of empires that are dejure but are not at present formed.
Unfortunately they forgot to allow the same kingdoms to drift into empires if they are part of others.

SO now if HRE controls all of France, France will never drift, unless France itself ceases to exist, so if the HRE destroys the French title it will drift. posted it in another thread.

I am not sure if its so easy to change but basically would prevent kingdoms drifting out of empires but not prevent them drifting into empires.

Do any of you know a quick fix for this? My game is ruined because after I invaded HRE, I immediately created all the king titles without knowing the bug. Destroying them would cause a surge of vassals to join independence faction

you can create the HRE? Only way its not so major just no drifting of some kingdoms.

I don't want to. I want everything under a single banner! Especially after I managed to vassalize the pope
If things are going according to plan, in 200 years the papacy should be dejure Britannia

Then the only way at present is to destroy the kingdom titles.

Basically a kingdom will drift only if :
a. it is not part of a dejure empire
b. it is part of a dejure empire and the empire exists
c. it is part of a dejure empire and the empire exists but the kingdom title doesnt exist.

As soon as the empire and kingdom titles exist then no dejure drift.

I agree its a major pain, for instance Kingdom of Jerusalem will if created almost never drift into another empire at present

Thank you for the solution! I can confirm this works if no kingdom title exist and all duchies are under your control.

I have this issue as well, kingdoms belonging to uncreated de jure empires will not drift to its de facto empire

Edit: the kingdom that doesn't drift is indeed owned by a vassal, but this is still a bug right?

I was wondering why kingdoms weren't drifting into my empire in addition to Bavaria drifting -OUT- of the roman empire after the HRE was dismantled due to independence and de jure claim wars. Wtf went through their mind when they did this? 6_9

Can't even do the solution given it'll pretty much rip apart the entire empire due to the ridiculous penalties! Not without massive amounts of cheating.
