All the Mer and Human races can breed with each other (though they may not be so successful) and Beast races can only produce children with their own race (aka argonians can't make children with nonargonians) and I don't know how the Elven marriage stuff works, I guess theres a bunch of hardcoded stuff that is causing problems (not being able to marry people outside of your court if you're old, not sure if that's hardcoded though)

All marriage/diplomacy things are basically hardcoded. You can to an extent "hijack" diplomatic actions but in many cases it's a very hacky messy system (which is why I haven't done something like AGOT's diplomacy yet, I'm holding out hope one day we'll get an "on_send_gift" action).
The Mer not being able to marry outside their courts is something I consider a serious issue and is a game breaking (in my view) problem with the way we're currently handling Mer fertility. It's something I'm going to replace in 0.1.5.
 
So i just became Emporer of Tamriel as a Dragon blood character. my question is when does this event fire? Because apart from the fact that i'm older then 18 i do beleive i've met these triggers. granted though it was my grandmother who was dragonborn.
Code:
[B][COLOR="#FFFFFF"] character_event = {
	id = 160000
	title = "My Ascension"
	desc = "I have ascended to godhood!"
	picture = GFX_evt_heretic
	hide_window = yes

	is_triggered_only = yes
	
	trigger = {
		has_landed_title = e_tamriel
		religion = eight_divines
		age = 18
		has_character_flag = tamriel_founder
		OR = {
			trait = nord
			trait = imperial
			trait = breton
			trait = reachmen
			trait = islander
			trait = redguard
			trait = dragonborn
			trait = dragonborn_descendant[/COLOR] [/B]
 
Where exactly is Sancre Tor?
 
Just southwest of the western pass (Pale Pass) between Cyrodiil and Skyrim, bring up the duchy overlay and you should be able to see it pretty easily too as it is the capital of its namesake duchy.
 
If I conquer a race's land as a different race and install individuals of my race as the new lords of that land will that race essentially go extinct, or is there still some way for them to show up as courtiers and stuff? I conquered Argonia as Morrowind and I'm wondering if I'll ever see argonians again.
 
Ruling the house of Hlaalu (And having the titular title that goes with it), will my counties ever drift into my de jure? And if so, can I speed it along in any way? (I'm getting a bit tired of being a duke level ruler with no ability to create duchy titles for my family)

And another quick question - For a long time I was given free county CBs on anyone I tried to attack (Mostly Argonian and Imperial provinces) claiming I could "expand my realm within my cultural or religious group"

How does that exactly work when I am beating up other races with no commonalities - And more importantly, why is it suddenly gone when I try to expand now? (Into the Kingdom of Thorn and Naga)
 
So, My character just had a good tumble with his genius homosexual daughter and sired a bastard son (Lolled so hard) and she is now my lover....
Are you supposed to be able to do that? or is that from vanilla CK2 ?
 
It is straight out of vanilla - Homosexual doesn't mean you're exclusively sleeping with your own gender. Look at the stats when mousing over the trait. It's basically just less fertility, because you're not really that into doing it with the other gender.

I was more surprised that
a. she was my characters daughter
b. the child is a bastard (even though she was the same dynasty as me, so shouldn't the kid "normal")
But the great thing is that the kid is also a genius, so I got a new heir for my dynasty :laugh:
 
Of course the child is a bastard. You didn't marry your daughter, did you?
 
Hey, so I had a game where my character got the homosexual trait and then I put him on the "find love" ambition. Even though there were three other homosexuals in the court, and a neighboring Thane with the same liege who was gay, no lover events ever fired, even after five years of play. So I was poking around in the files and looking at the lovers events, it seems that they don't make additions for homosexual couples. Or maybe I'm not reading that right.

Anyway, my question is, will I never get a lover event for him? Should I just quit the ambition? And if there isn't an event to fire, is that something that will get fixed in the next patch?

My female character got a female lover at one point, so it must happen at least sometimes, infinite monkeys on typewriters writing Shakespeare and all that. Though in that case neither of the characters were (openly at least) homosexual so perhaps it is just a chance that there could be some events that happen to give people lovers the same gender. The only explicitly homosexual lovers event that I know of is from polygamy_events.txt:
Code:
### Wives fall in love with each other
character_event = {
	id = 89000
	desc = "EVTDESC89000"
	picture = GFX_evt_lovers
	
	trigger = {
		is_female = yes
		is_married = yes
		trait = homosexual
		spouse = {
			any_spouse = {
				NOT = { character = ROOT }
				trait = homosexual
				is_alive = yes
				at_location = ROOT
			}
		}
		NOT = {
			has_character_flag = thelma
			has_character_flag = louise
		}
	}
	
	mean_time_to_happen = {
		months = 3
	}
		
	option = {
		name = "EVTOPTA89000"
		set_character_flag = thelma
		spouse = {
			any_spouse = {
				limit = {
					trait = homosexual
					NOT = { character = ROOT }
				}
				set_character_flag = louise
				add_lover = ROOT
			}
			hidden_tooltip = {
				character_event = { id = 89001 days = 14 }
			}
		}
	}
}
There is the possibility that there are others somewhere else but I do not know where.
 
Of course the child is a bastard. You didn't marry your daughter, did you?
That is true... (I tried, she had the genius trait...) But it's not like the baby was ever going to not be part of my dynasty xD
 
But it's not like you're going to admit that your newborn grandson is also your son. :)

Well, everyone knows, and I legitimized him...
