Hi! I'm playing as Frisia in CK2 and when I convert save to EU IV i get the dutch ideas, but i want randomly generated Ideas. Is there a way to change them?
Here's a method you (and others) might find useful, as it's so occasional:
Start up EU4. Pick single player, then custom nation. Click on a single province. Voila! The interface will open up with randomly selected traditions/ideas/ambitions for you at level 1. You can then adjust up to level 2/3/4 if you wish, either by arbitrary choice, or by choice within say 100-200 custom idea points you decide award yourself, or by rolling a D10 say 5/6/whatever times, or any other method. Up to you to determine your level-determination methodology.
You now have a respectable set of random traditions/ideas/ambition. Write them down. Then just exit, dive into the files and mod your nation's ideas to match...
Not for the faint-hearted, of course
