EB and the MTW2 heir system

[bobbin]

I haven't seen or used the script, but as I understand it: when the faction heir dies or becomes king, the engine makes the character with the most influence the new faction heir, regardless of family and other traits. The script EB plans to include allows you to designate a "heir" to the faction heir by giving that character a trait with an enormous influence bonus (presumably with non-influence penalties to counter this bonus). Whenever a new faction heir is selected, the script pops up to ask you to designate the new faction heir's successor. So no, you cannot do this at will: only when the faction heir dies or becomes king.

Almost, it's authority that controls who will be the next heir.

You mean all my 1 Authority kings in Medival II were chosen, because the other generals had even less?
Is it not tied to beeing a close relativ to the old king at all?
