Yes, that first number caused me quite a bit of confusion. If you have everything set up correctly, it points to the famous kings list. If you don't, it seems to point to the names list and you might end up with a King Michael Roman numeral @... or something weird.

I read a discussion in the archives that it indicated if the starting king was married (0=married, 1=unmarried). Of course, if you open up high.txt or late.txt, you will see that is not the case and can work out what it does.

I think the marriage of the starting king is determined by if he has any underage heirs or not, but I'm not sure. I wonder if his age can be controlled by adjusting the oldest heir's age? I'll do some testing myself and we can compare results.
