VV: Ambitions not resetting

[Zolfal]

I am currently playing a game as Macedonia and have a couple of ministers who have "Ally with Achaean League" and "Ally with Aetolian League" as their ambition. They have had these ambitions for more than 20 years, but the two states have been a part of my kingdom for almost 5 years. So it seems that ambitions are not resetting if they become unreachable, atleast the "Ally with --" ones.

Anyone know how to change it manually in the save game untill it is patched?

So ... these characters have "Ally with X" as objective, yet "X" is no more. That's an issue, and reported.

The abort code for these objectives doesn't take into consideration the existence of the countries to be allied.

To answer Your question, and reset their ambitions:

Search the savegame for the characters whose ambitions You want to reset - You need to search for their full name. Take note of their IDs (a six digit number) which tops their details.

Searching and finding those ID instances will lead You to all of their past and their present ambitions, which You can freely delete. They show as: "active_objective".

Note: firing the character from its current job should also clear the objective.
