Hey there guys, I wanted to ask you if some mod ideas I had in my head are possible.
On Republics
I wanted to make a Republican government in DF, with an elected President, elected senators, elected representatives, and Land_holders representing Presidents [Dukes] (who would govern subordinate republics), Governors (who would govern States) and a Judge (who would govern Counties), all of them also elective except for Judge which would be appointed by the President of the union.
Specific questions on Republics:
1) Can LAND_HOLDERS have succession by ELECTED?
2) Can positions have the same name (even if different tags)? (like the civ level President and the subordinate presidents [Dukes])?
On Theocracies
Here I wanted to make it a pretty top down system but that also had some bottom up effect. Basically you'd have a Patriarch that is ELECTED at first (in case there is no valid candidates) but has SUCCESSION by Position pointing to 7 Cardinals (so one would randomly be picked). Here's the kicker, I wanted to make that these cardinals had SUCCESSION by position pointing to a [SITE] level position called Bishop, to see if they might randomly pick a bishop from the site level to inherit the cardinalship. The site level Bishop would be picked by Appointed by position NUNCIO, being something like a legate that picks the bishop and would be equivalent to a permanent expedition leader position that exists soley to appoint the Bishop. The Bishop chooses priests number:as needed. The priests though would have succession by position: Deacon. The deacon would be chosen also by the Bishop number:as needed. I would like it if it was possible to make them all celibates by reason of their positions, but I doubt that is possible.
Specific questions for theocracies:
1) Can I make a Succession:by_position from the civ level pointing to a site level position?
2) Can I make position bearors celibates? (even a hacky solution is perfectly valid if it can be implemented)
