Someone did it...it involved a lot of random clicking.
I am not sure on the percentage of sucess.

Re: How do you change your faction heir?
The crucial question for me is: is there a way to predict who the next heir will be after I kill the current one off?

Re: How do you change your faction heir?
It is the oldest son of the faction leader or if no sons are present, the brother of the faction leader

Re: How do you change your faction heir?
Sure? At least that´s not the case with the HRE, or I´ll have to check again.
However, if a faction leader had no adult male child, but an underaged son, once the son comes of age he still won´t be the heir, the previous heir will be the next Emperor (unless he dies sooner than the current Emperor, that is). Is that so only for the HRE or does it hold true for other factions as well?

At least you have heirs. Stop whining. This is my family tree:

Re: How do you change your faction heir?
I already posted a thread about this.
After RTW it is annoying to find the option removed.
Did someone say historical reasons?
If it was historical I would be less annoyed but I find it far less historical to see true offspring overlooked as the honour is bestowed on an in-law. That means my glorious ruling family willingly gave away that rule which is of course absolute nonsense.
I never thought I'd praise RTW but the family tree was better in that game, I thought we'd get extra in M2TW

Re: How do you change your faction heir?
Step 1: Select general you want as your faction heir and move him away from other family members and characters.
Step 2: With the desired family member selected. Open console and type "give_trait this Factionheir" and enter.
Step 3: remove thecurrent faction heir. Forlorn hope suicide attack, or one way boat ride. Your choice on the how
Voila, you have a new faction heir.
Re: How do you change your faction heir?
Random clicking... same thing happened to me.
I know the faq, google, every single post in the forums here says you can't change your faction heir,
but yesterday while I was playing a campaign as Spain somehow I managed to change my heir.
I was on the family tree scroll clicking on different generals trying to figure out where they were on the map, and I clicked a general and the faction heir crown changed to him, and the previous faction heir got the 'disinherited' trait (-3 loyalty, i think).
I actually didn't want to change my heir though, and I was able to immediately 're-inherit' my previous heir -just by randomly clicking on his picture.
Today I'm playing a campaign as England, and I'm at a point where I'd like to change my heir, but I can't seem to repeat what did yesterday.
I think in my Spanish campaign I had switched the heir between brothers, but I finished the game and deleted the saves so I can't check.
Re: How do you change your faction heir?
Well, I tried for a while but I couldn't get it to happen again.
Thinking back over my Spanish campaign:
If I remember right the two generals had the exact same name.
It was something like this-
Alfonso 1 [king]
--Rodrigo (son of Alfonso I) [heir]
----Alfonso 2 (son of Rodrigo)
--Alfonso 3 (son of Alfonso I)
Alfonso 1 died, and Rodrigo became king, Alfonso 2 became heir.
Then in the random clicking I swapped heir back and forth between Alfonso 2 & 3.
Anyway I'm disappointed that I couldn't repeat it, I didn't want to believe that it was a bug, but I guess it was.
Re: How do you change your faction heir?
This and what I call the "phantom family tree" bug, where princesses "convert" foreign generals and then disappear are the two MAJOR family tree issues IMHO. I personally was hoping both these issues would be addressed in the upcoming patch
Re: How do you change your faction heir?
It would be ok, if we could assassinate our own like the old MTW. That was a nice and historical touch... which had the same result, selecting heirs.
