Would there be a way to activate this for kingdoms? It is absurd that kings are stronger than emperors.

can you make a EK compatible version? please?

I don't know if it's because I'm in the middle of a savegame or what, but for some reason my army levies, which default to 131k, are being cut down to 40k with this mod. This shouldn't be the case, since the -45% imperial inefficiency modifier should only be cutting this down to approx. 72k. I've played around with the code since and seen that the numbers will reflect accurately at lower percentages like -4.5%. I'm not sure why this doesn't hold true at higher percentages.

@LezardGraphique You should have a claim on the empire and not be the heir, that should give you the necessary option.

Imperial inefficiency cannot be reduced as a vassal, it's based on the stewardship of the emperor, empress, and steward
LezardGraphique Dec 5, 2024 @ 3:35am 
How can we launch or support Court Coup plot as a vassal, do we need to have claim on empire title ? There is some special condition ? Can we interact with as while not beeing the plot leader or the target ?

Can we reduce imperial inefficiency as a vassal, appart beeing a good steward ?

Now my empire will see more blood from the rebels

Abbassids have like 2k troops bruh. This inefficientcy is ridiculous
Slothinator  [author] Dec 2, 2022 @ 1:42am 
@Mr. afg I think it should be compatible practically but it might mess with some of the systems they already have implemented
YaHomie Dec 1, 2022 @ 2:34pm 
Is this mod compateble with Agot?
Slothinator  [author] Nov 22, 2022 @ 10:27am 
@Vision Yes it does!
Vision Nov 21, 2022 @ 9:22pm

Still works?
Slothinator  [author] Sep 1, 2022 @ 11:24am 
@Heaselden It's quite difficult to fully remove the penalty but you can do it by increasing your state stewardship (combination of yours+spouse+councillor) or, as a last resort, by creating autonomous vassals. You can do that by interacting with the vassal in question or by right clicking on your portrait and it will suggest which one is most suitable (distant small vassals with different culture/religion that would just be rebels)
Slothinator  [author] Sep 1, 2022 @ 11:22am 
@Aizhaine It's probably because the empire you're forming is too small. There's a game rule to deactivate that
Heaselden Sep 1, 2022 @ 3:05am 
Hello, how do I remove the penalty once you are an emperor and recently ascended to the throne? Or does it gradually get lowered as time goes by?

Medium-Low Imperial Inefficiency.
Si O'son Aug 27, 2022 @ 4:53pm 
everytime i form an empire it collapses i dont know why
Zszywka Jun 29, 2022 @ 8:36am 
Ok I understand. Thanks for clarification.
Slothinator  [author] Jun 28, 2022 @ 1:49pm 
@WarpWhistle79 I would like to but unfortunately CK3 doesn't really have some of the mechanics I would need to set this up. I could see if I can think of something simpler but it would take time
Zszywka Jun 28, 2022 @ 1:26pm 
Could you recreate this mod to ck3?
Slothinator  [author] Jun 28, 2022 @ 11:32am 
@Comiclove This should work fine if you add it later on, there's nothing really modifying old code
Comiclove Jun 28, 2022 @ 12:06am 
Is this mod safe to install in a pre-existing save, or will I need to start a new save to (safely) use this? I'm a CK2 noob, so I'm not familiar with how modding works for CK2 overall. I really like the concept of this mod, just don't wanna ruin my Britannia save.
Mr. Kinich Mar 6, 2022 @ 11:19am 
Can I release a version of this mod that is compatible with CleanSlate ?
Zszywka Jan 6, 2022 @ 2:31pm 
Thank you for explain.
Slothinator  [author] Jan 5, 2022 @ 1:54pm 
@WarpWhistle79 That should be happening if the empires become too small. Once they become large enough, the king title will return to an empire
Zszywka Jan 5, 2022 @ 12:47pm 
For me, the titles of empires, e.g. Byzantium, changed sometime to the kingdom tier level.
BassMonke805 Jul 27, 2021 @ 12:35pm 
rework mod then ill get it
Kaiser Otto VIII of Bavaria Jul 11, 2021 @ 12:38pm 
@4powerd This mod definitely needs an game rule for less imperial inefficiency from realm size.
4powerd Jan 23, 2021 @ 5:42pm 
As much as I like this mod in theory, in practice it just doesn't work all that well. Imperial inefficiency starts gathering up as soon as you become Emperor tier, meaning that an Emperor will often be weaker then a King who has the same realm size. Plus temporary tiles like revolt leaders don't suffer from this, meaning revolt leaders against an Emperor often have 2x or 3x the levies as the person revolting against, despite having only 1/3 or half of that land.
Lord Oct 6, 2020 @ 7:46am 
Yes it is linur @ilnur
Slothinator  [author] Sep 8, 2020 @ 5:07am 
@ilnur I'm pretty sure that it is. At most you might have some overlapping features
Nurr Sep 8, 2020 @ 3:46am 
Is this mod compatitible with Imperial Court Societies mod?
Slothinator  [author] Sep 2, 2020 @ 4:58am 
@Betch I appreciate that! As soon as I get a PC that can run CK3 I'll definitely consider updating my mods for the new game. In the meantime, have fun with CK3!
Pepega Sep 2, 2020 @ 2:58am 
I can safely say, im really missing your mod in CK3 right now lol. Fingers crossed.
Slothinator  [author] Aug 21, 2020 @ 2:25pm 
@a-really-big-cat Yes, that's what I meant by turn some vassals into autonomous vassals! The bigger the tributary the greater reduction
a-really-big-cat Aug 21, 2020 @ 11:49am 
Does releasing them as tributary states also work?
Slothinator  [author] Aug 21, 2020 @ 1:17am 
@a-really-big-cat It is calculated based on your state stewardship and the number of counties in your empire. To reduce it, you can increase your stewardship, get a better steward or turn some vassals into autonomous vassals
a-really-big-cat Aug 20, 2020 @ 9:10pm 
How is Imperial Inefficiency calculated and how can I reduce it?
Slothinator  [author] Aug 19, 2020 @ 1:01am 
@jamesdefcon1 Random new world shouldn't really affect it. The enhanced rules require that the AI have 3 kingdoms, 150 realm size and be at peace. Also the 3 kingdoms should all have succession laws different from elective or gavelkind
jamesdefcon1 Aug 18, 2020 @ 3:31pm 
How are AI Empires created? An AI Ruler got 3 King titles, but it took a while before he was given a Titular Empire. Why is that?

I should also say I'm playing on Random World, with Custom Empire Creation from Charlemagne DLC disabled, do those affect Enhanced AI Empire Formation in any way?
Slothinator  [author] Aug 16, 2020 @ 7:59am 
@redomer It should all be set up correctly now!
redomer Aug 7, 2020 @ 3:40am 
Yeah. That was one of the places where I first looked. The options doesn't seem to show up. Idk if that matters but I am a direct vassal of the Western Protectorate and I am also running a couple of other mods but I don't think those should interfere.
Slothinator  [author] Aug 7, 2020 @ 1:02am 
@redomer Yes, in theory you should be able to right click on your liege and request autonomy. Let me know if it doesn't work and I'll try and correct it
redomer Aug 6, 2020 @ 5:31pm 
Is it possible to request becoming a autonomous vassal myself? I saw one of my fellow vassals become one.
Slothinator  [author] Jul 19, 2020 @ 1:40pm 
@yeibu123 All you need is a claim on the empire title and it should work out
yeibu123 Jul 19, 2020 @ 12:53pm 
Who can enact a Court Coup, only Courtiers?
Slothinator  [author] Jul 16, 2020 @ 2:01pm 
@Betch Thanks! I'm not sure how soon I'll be able to get CK3 but I'd definitely like to find a way to port my mods when I do!
Pepega Jul 16, 2020 @ 1:44pm 
I hope you can recreate (and make it even better!) this mod in CK3. Good work.
Slothinator  [author] Jul 12, 2020 @ 5:37am 
@yeibu123 Basically it is a regular plot where you need to gather courtiers to your side. Once you trigger it (sort of like for "demand gavelkind") you get into an event chain where you make choices on how to go about the plot. Based on that and the starting plot power, you either get caught and imprisoned, return home unharmed but the emperor can imprison you, or you become emperor and get to choose what to do with the old one
yeibu123 Jul 11, 2020 @ 6:19pm 
How does the Court Coup Work?
Slothinator  [author] Jul 5, 2020 @ 3:20am 
@devve ♥♥ they need to be your vassal and at peace. Also you need to be at peace and a non-tribal empire
