General's names

[rama]

I'm currently playing a vh/vh campaign with the Byzantines and... well, lets say i made too many enemies :P. The problem is, I only have 3 generals, all of them married, but only one has a son! I was searching the forums and saw that you could manually give traits to general's (yes, i know it can be considered cheating, but why do i always have traits that decrease the chance of having children?). I wanted to use the 'WifeIsRipe' trait but i can't seem to get my characters name right... I tried everything ex:
give_trait Draganos Comnenus WifeIsRipe 3 or
give_trait Draganos WifeIsRipe 3 or
give_trait Draganos_Comnenus WifeIsRipe 3

but it keeps on saying that the character wasn't found.

The question is, how can i know my general's 'Real' name?

Take your general out of stack or city so he is alone.
Right click select general.
Bring down console using ~.
Type "give_trait this WifeIsFertile 3" press enter.
Continue adding/removing traits till done.


You can also:


Take your general out of stack or city so he is alone.
Right click select general.
Bring down console using ~
Type "remove_trait this" press enter. This will remove all the traits for that char and give you a clean slate. Works with all chars (except admirals I think).
Type "remove_ancillary this", removes all ancillaries.
Continue adding/removing traits/ancillaries till done.


WifeIsRipe is not the name of the trait, it is the trait description. The correct name of that trait (as shown above) is WifeIsFertile.

To get a good procreating general.

Make sure he's married or it can get buggy.
The following traits and ancillary are good (case sensitive).



give_trait this Fertile 3 (or 2 IIRC)
give_trait this WifeIsFertile 3
give_trait this HaleAndHearty 3
give_ancillary this apothecary


Maximum number of children is four, I believe.

Happy happy fornicating general ! Presto ! :yes:
