[RoI] BUG: Guardians assigned automatically, and disappearing wards

[Emre Yigit]

As an independent megaduke, I can apparently act as guardian to my firstborn (currently a son), but no-one else.


Educating my other children (and others)

When arranging a wardship via the diplomacy screen for my other children, I find that someone automatically appears as my proposed guardian. Even if I then click and select myself, after a while, my child will disappear from from court and appear as a ward of the person whom the game originally wanted to assign as guardian. I can then re-assign myself as guardian, but after a while, he will go back to the other guardian.

The same applies to any children at my court, not just my own. I have tried with all my sons and with daughters of courtiers. Except for the firstborn, something wonky seems to be happening.

I am the ultimate liege of all of the educators (and the children) and they all have my religion and culture.

From this thread of mine: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum...-guardian-for-courtiers-s-children&highlight=

Hello

After purchasing RoI, I found this strange thing. Two of my courtiers had children, and I noticed later that being older than 6 years old (but not adults yet), they didn't have a guardian assigned. Shouldn't it be automatic? I remember to never have any troubles with this, because they're automatically assigned... right?

Thanks in advance

Another issue, related with guardian mechanics.

I'm having the same problem.

Same problem as everyone else in this topic. Is this WAD? If yes, is there a way to turn it off?

I also have this problem that the ward will autochange....
But i found out , that this problem occures only (at least by me) if I use the rulergenerator.
Without using of this generator i can change the ward and it will not change back to the formerly proposed educator...

Greetings and sorry for my english

Still applies, post-2.1.2 patch.

Same problem. Using both pre-generated characters or the ruler designer seems to make no difference.

Taken from http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?769599-Problem-with-educating-children-(BUG-)

So this funny little situation cropped up after the character I was playing as (Count in Bavaria) died and passed control onto his eldest son (now the new Count). The son only had daughters and the eldest daughter had already been assigned to our top bishop for education. With my second daughter about to turn 6, I decided to hand off control of my current ward (a half-brother) to someone else, so that I could have both slots open to educate my own kids. However, it won't let me educate my own kids - every time I open the "educate child" tab, my bishop is auto selected. In fact, my character cannot educate anyone at all. At first I thought it might have been a new mechanic disallowing the assignment of new wards if your character was leading troops (I was). But our lieges war ended and I returned to court - still unable to educate any child. I see all of my other vassals as options, even my wife. Just not myself.
Ideas? Bug? Help!

Checked in with the latest patch to see if It was fixed but no such luck. Still having the same problems described in the OP. However, this was with a ruler generated save game. I'll check later with a fresh character to see if its fixed.

Confirmed. This bug has been a problem for me since the 2.1 patch. I managed to keep the right guardians for my children from time to time, but the guardians of my courtiers' children keep switching to the auto-assigned ones in a few days after I assign the guardian. It's been happening regardless of which mode I played (personally, I favor Ironman). Considering the emphasis that I always make on breeding, this bug is almost gamebreaking for me.

I can confirm it and please fix it.

It has taken away much more enjoyment out of CK that I ever thought such a small thing could...

I am having the same issue.

Damn, this is really quite annyoing...now for a change I have time to play and this bug really takes the fun out of it. Might be there is a quick fix?
I'm not a big modder, but I would like to have a look at it; yet I can't even locate the events/decisions that are in charge of assigning guardians, any hints?

 

[Emre Yigit]

@fdb: The system for guardians and wards is, afaik, hardcoded and hence not moddable.

Given the time since the last patch, I suspect Paradox is working on a mega-patch to fix a slew of problems, so we shall have to wait until that is released...

 

[kverkagambo]

Definately this bug exists, without connection to Ruled Designer.

 

[Neisha51]

having the same bug, can we hope a fix soon?

 

[idontlivehere11]

^ What this man said.

 

[Emoskri]

Still don't think it's fixed yet unfortunately. Hopefully next patch though. Drives me nuts though, probably the main thing stopping me playing with the updated version actually.

 

[Neisha51]

not fixed for me too, i stopped playing ck2 for the moment due to that only damn bug
