Description:

The purpose of this mod is to fix immersion breaking wars within the realm. What I mean by "immersion breaking", are situations where, for example, your landed heir is getting attacked by your other vassals without any repercussions.
In short: You will have greater say on the wars your vassals wage on each other; but while being a vassal yourself, you will have to consider that your liege might intervene as well.
Perhaps there already are similar mods, but I wanted to make something simpler.

The key features of this mod are:

– You can demand any vassal in any position on the feudal ladder to end the war on white peace; with two highest crown authority levels, vassals that refuse will be branded as traitors, susceptible to imprisonment; however you can’t intervene if the receiving side is your ally.
– You can also ask your vassals to surrender to their (internal) enemy at the cost of tyranny (also, this feature seems to be broken in vanilla, so the mod fixes it in a way)
– Vassals that are imprisoned by you are forced to accept your demands to end wars.
– Now AI can also demand vassals to end their internal wars, but you can disable it via game rule.

Compatibility:

The mod should be quite heavily compatible with others, unless other mod in your playlist does similar things (like "More Interactive Vassals" mod, for example), it should work; if there are some minor incompatibility issues I recommend putting my mod near the bottom of the playlist, because although not a lot of files are overwritten, there are quite a few "moving parts" that have to interact with each other. But don’t worry the mod should work fine on already started saves, so you can change the order in the playlist if something doesn’t work, and try again. The only thing you will lose by launching the mod on an already started playthrough, would be an ability to change optional game rules.

If you want a reference what kind of mods should work, you can check out my custom mod list, it should be visible around to top of this page.
I’ve also tested compatibility with:
– AGOT mod, and it indeed is compatible (at least as of writing this).
– "More Interactive Vassals" mod, and it should be compatible, as long as you disable "Liege Intervention" and "Vassal Aggression" game rules.

Technical Stuff:

To go more in depth for those that know about modding:
– the only fully overwritten file is "vassal_interaction_events.txt"
– it also overwrites character interaction to stop vassal war.

I spent stupid amount of time making such simple mod, so I hope you enjoy it, lol.
