Characters and Family Trees

[Shautora]

I have several questions pertaining to the family tree aspect of the game. Does anyone know how to alter the ages at which family members become "mature", and how to allow poligamy? Also, the frequency of childbirth and marriage proposals? And is there a way to remove the four child limit? And stuff like that?

99% sure it's hardcoded.

[Makanyane]

does two x 99% sure make 198% ?

I don't think you can do anything about that. Medieval II seems to have some setting you can adjust (relating to age) but RTW doesn't.

For frequency of childbirth, you can have traits with

Level Fruitful
Description Fruitful_desc
EffectsDescription Fruitful_effects_desc
Threshold 1

Effect Fertility 1

which should in theory increase that particular generals chance of having kid, but that's about it and I'm not sure how well that works.

It does work, albiet somewhat randomly, eb for example has sucesfuly mooded the romans to reduce birth rate.

[Shautora]

so then is birthrate the only thing i can change?
