I decided to do something wacky the other day. FN_REBEL isn't used, but it shows up in a bunch of places, like as the owners of rebel lands in the startpos (but those lines are nulled by // at the beginning).

I went and put in "SetActiveFactions" put in "FN_REBEL MAJOR", and then proceeded to put in all the stuff they needed like a king and heirs and culture. And it seems like I can get a whole bonus faction this way when I start the game. They show up in the select faction screen (they're color is clear) and there they have a king and everything. But when I start, they don't. It acts like I used the cheat code ".conan.", which starts strangely with the Denmark province always highlighted. I'm unable to secure alliances without a king. In "names.txt" there's "Rebel Faction Leader" and lots to suggest they could a single function faction.

Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this. The primary logic here: William Wallace is a rebel hero. He comes as a hero only to the rebels.

Which side would you control if you had a rebellion?

Well... you could never have a rebelion, the taxes are set at max, and loyalty is set at 100.

Get this one: So I gave them 2 princes and 1 princesses as heir, which is usual. It crashes if I click on the princess, in the Heirs window, once she's avaliable, and the princes say "Unassigned". According to the note in "Events.txt", Unassigned means I need to build a unit, and they'll take command of it. But I've never seen that before, has anyone? Heirs are supposed to just pop up.

Did you give them a faction assocation in the prod11?

Dude ... Maybe...

But wouldn't the game just crash if I tried to put in say Royal Knights that the faction didn't permit for one reason or another, like when I made pagan factions, the knights didn't agree, so it would crash. I'll see.
