I think a cleanup of character history and dynasties will be needed at some point, as it's a bit messy:

  • vanilla characters are still in the files, generating errors in the validator and masking the real errors. Any character born after 800 A.D. should be removed.
  • some characters have a different culture than the name of the file (in particular WtWSMS_character_gift.txt and the like, but also georgian.txt, finnish.txt, dutch.txt, etc.)
  • some characters and dynasties are duplicated (Meroving, ...) causing confusion
  • there's no clear ID range assigned per file/culture, making it easy to have duplicate IDs ?

Is this OK to do? Finally! One of the things I've wanted to do ever since I looked at the code for the first time, but the rest of the team seemingly didn't want.

What were the reasons for not doing it ?
Obviously it has to be done at the right time, i.e. if @EmperorEnlil has big modifications/additions on his side that he hasn't shared yet, it will become impossible to merge after the cleanup.

No idea, not sure if they even existed. But every time I mentioned it I didn't get any answer, so I didn't know what to do or if it was just something that was to be avoided because it might mess up the code too much. And also what you say, Enlil/Zusk/Erik W are always working with new characters, so it felt difficult to do as I wasn't the onedoing those characters.

While the characters have been cleared up, the dynasties are still very confusing.
