Limited number of Client Rulers?

[Ravenfeeder]

In my Romani game I already have 6 client rulers. When I build more Type IV government buildings in Ippone, Buridava and Ak-Ink, a local general appears but he does not have the Client Ruler trait and swiftly builds up an interloper trait. I have to knock down the Type IV and build a Type III instead.

Is this a bug or just that there are limited numbers of client rulers to go around?

have you installed the optimizing client ruler script?

I have noticed something similar with the Romani too, difference is i can´t build a single roman client ruler,they all get interloper traits. i tried looking around, added all the fixes and used the validation tool, and it looks like nothing is wrong? i did notice however that it did start after i downloaded the optimizing client ruler script thing, my guess is it has something to do with this, though i can´t understand the ebbs very well though i don´t think any other faction has this problem, have atleast tried as ptolies and hay and the client rulers work for them. i did try reinstalling the whole thing but added the fixes before i had a chance to check out the client rulers, so i got the same problems again.
this is what i got from the validation tool:

i think thoose are the optional fixes though.

(and the rometw.exe is probably because i use have rtwgold, so i skipped all the added BI files)
hope i´m not hijacking your thread now ravenfeeder, it sounded like the same problem.

like i said i really suck at scripting/coding, so i dont know what the problem is, but my best guess is that there is something wrong with the trigger for roman client rulers in the optimizing script. i could post a savefile if needed. anyway, wish i could help to solve the problem, but hopefully this information can narrow it down abit atleast?

I had this problem with my romanii camping and I destroyed gov4 rebuilted it then general had Client Ruler trait....

[Ravenfeeder]

Yep, installed the optimizing script. I'll try the old one again then.

[Sûlherokhh]

Seems it really is connected to the new scripts. I started to have the same problems in my Romani campaign, though the Casse campaign is working allright.

I have been doing some research into the scripts, but they are looking quite good. As far as i can see, all the cities, when Gov4 has been built, spawn a Gov4General, both when another general is in town and when no governor is present. All segments i have seen so far kill off a general (in case you have destroyed and rebuilt the Gov4) so you won't have the same one twice, and all are assigned the Type4 (Client) trait right afterwards.
BUT, what i have discovered is this: Even though the general is spawned, somehow it gets the wrong name (Manivs instead of ManivsK for example) which is probably the reason why the trait is not assigned, though i can't understand why it would get a name that is different from the one written in the 'spawn army' line. You can assure yourself that this happens by typing in the console 'give_trait "Manivs" Type4Governor', or whatever name the general has received but without the appended letter ('A to K'). If i do that manually, it works. But i forsee a problem, since there will be a lot of 'Manii' walking around. Or maybe more than one client of the name won't be spawned. Also it will mean that the 'kill' line in the script will not work as well.

Hopefully there will be a solution to that in sight. I will try the old, big scripts until then.

I hope this was of some help to pinpoint the problem. :)

If you mean optimized client ruler script then no, its not connected.

Old and new script works exactly the same. The only difference is monitor structure ( 8000 vs 800 ).
Problem that you are describing is caused by not gaining by client ruler proper traits and this is done exactly the same way in both scripts.

Anyway we dont know why this is happening yet. We are looking into it.
