True, though would an Frenchman accept, that he would be addressed at the French court as "Amir of Cairo" for instance?
I see your point with the people - but back then, it was really the rulers that decided the title, especially for crusade targets (Count of Tripoli, King of Jerusalem vs their Muslim counterparts, who happen to start there).

Any comment on the other issue btw?

I forgot that the Jerusalem, Tripoli and Antioch (Perhaps some other settlements in Levant) have European and not Muslim titles. And it would be kind of funny to have a Muslim called 'the King of Jerusalem' at the beginning of the game and before any Crusaders have taken the city

The other issue.. I don't know much about scripting but perhaps it is possible to create a script that takes away the ancillary if the character have been away from the settlement for a certain amount of time? Let's say 10 turns or so?

That's the thing: you can only give, not remove ancillaries via code. You can remove traits, but you cannot transfer traits manually in game, so both have some major drawbacks, though a trait rather than ancillary system would probably be preferrable

Hi

I noticed you're using

    WhenToTest AgentCreated
    Condition IsAdmiral

in at least your ancillary file (havent gotten to traits yet), and in my games i have never seen these triggers actually fire. I'm using a vanilla M2TW patched to 1.2 then to 1.3 from the Kingdoms DVD but without actually having Kingdoms installed (so no kingdoms.exe whatsoever, i assume it's the same 1.3 patch that you can download anywhere). The actual working trigger for me is

Trigger naval_gunner_vnv_trigger
    WhenToTest NewAdmiralCreated
    Condition SettlementBuildingExists >= naval_academy

    AcquireAncillary naval_gunner chance  33

i'm curious whether your triggers stop working because of the 1.2 -> 1.3 and also whether my trigger works in 1.2 (it should, but i wouldn't reinstall to test it :P)

[FactionHeir]

Hmmm I don't think I did much in terms of testing naval as I personally don't use it much, so the code I got should be a remnant of CA's original code. However, checking the docudemon, it seems it should be NewAdmiralCreated.

Thanks for the tip, I'll have it fixed for the next release!
