Inheritance

So i get a bit pissed when the queen died and her perfecly fine nice did't get the job, so i though of a little tweak.

If you change the entity raws to make the monarch succesion to be [by_position:Prince] instead of [by_heir], and then you make
a new noble post (Prince), appointed by the monarch, this should allow you to chose the kings heir.
(Note: I am completely new at modding)

Any thoughts on this?

People have done similar things before in order to insure that even if the king dies there is still a "crown prince" position to carry on the bloodline.

Of course succession is currently broken IIRC, so even if it should work it wouldn't.

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!
