Royal Marriage Core Events

[ArmOrAttAk]

I started to make these events over 2 years ago and never finished.
They're for GC vanilla. Basically it's meant to give minors cores on thier neighbors when and if that neighbor ceases to exist, and if they had a royal marriage. I was going to apply it to all the German and Italian minors, but stopped playing and never got back to it.

So for instance..
Brandenburg has a RM with Saxony. England comes over and annexes Saxony. Brandenburg gets claims on Saxon lands because their royal family had legitimate succession claims. If Brandenburg doesn't take those cores they eventually lose the claim. Also. if Brandenburg goes to war with Saxony another event fires to null the claims(to prevent exploits, etc). I think the lose claim(time) fires off too quicky but other than that the event works beautifully.

All that's completed is Brandenburg cores for Saxony, Hannover, Pommern, Wurzburg, Mecklemburg, Bremen, and Holstein.

Here is a portion to view..

#sax to bra

Good idea, i like it.
One question: If you, as Brandenburg fight a war againts Saxony, and then, 100 years later you enter a royal marriage with them, then you get the possibility of the claims or not?
And a second question: can an event fire more times in EU2?
royal marriage - Saxony annexed by someone - get the core - can't get the territory - lost the core - Saxony is independent again (revolt) - royal marriage with them - they annexed again - get the cores again?

It looks like the war would only break the ties if there are already ties (see the "event = 50000" in the trigger of the war event).

And a second question: can an event fire more times in EU2?
royal marriage - Saxony annexed by someone - get the core - can't get the territory - lost the core - Saxony is independent again (revolt) - royal marriage with them - they annexed again - get the cores again?

No; only random events can fire multiple times in EU2.


@ArmOrAttAk: Have you tested those events? Because I don't think the ones with offset = 146000 (~405 years) will ever fire.

 

[ArmOrAttAk]

Yes I tested them and they worked perfectly. Answer to the previous question is that the events fire one time only ever.

 

[MichaelM]

Yes I tested them and they worked perfectly.

OK, I guess I don't know the event system as well as I thought I did. o
