I am pretty sure that this has been reported before. Anyway, in the Aug 15 beta semi-salic primogeniture still doesn't work correctly in all cases.
The easiest test case in the 1066 scenario is the county of Amiens, where Raoul de Valois's heir apparent is the eldest son of his elder daughter. I have a save game from October 1067, with Raoul's wife eight months pregnant. Therefore it's easy enough to reload it until she produces a son.This son ought to become the heir, but doesn't. Unfortunately, I can't post an attachment and I won't faff around with hosting it on the web. You can always do the same as me - marry off Raoul and await an heir, saving just before the expected happy event - or,if you prefer, you can email me at angus dot mclellan at skynet dot be or angus dot mclellan at hp dot com and I can send the saved game I used.
I had wondered if this had something to do with semi-salic primogeniture not being applied correctly (the definitions for most countries in the .inc files do not include succession or religious laws), so I have tried setting the succession law to semi-salic primogeniture again prior to the birth on loading my test case game. This had no effect, the grandsons remained ahead of any son. Repicking semi-salic primogeniture after the birth of a son made no difference either. I also tried doing this in other test cases on day one of the game, before Raoul marries. Again, no difference, it's still the grandsons by the eldest daughter who head the list.
Changing the succession law to semi-salic consanguinity works as expected, sons of Raoul and his wife will take precedence over the sons of his daughters.
A related point: in the EUII forum there's a consolidated bug list, and I thought there was one here too, but I can't find it. Since the search is disabled and Google isn't helping, can anyone point me to the bug list for CK ?
Cheers,
Angus
