Open Dynasty Tree centered on Selected Character

Having trouble finding characters in the Dynasty Tree?

• This mini-mod focuses on just one feature:

  In vanilla CK3, no matter which character you select, the “Open Dynasty Tree” button always opens the tree centered on the House Head. This mod adds a new “Open Dynasty Tree” button that instead opens the dynasty tree centered on the character you selected.

　
1. ✹ Memories Window::
   ．Advantage: You can now open the dynasty tree centered on deceased characters as well.

   　

2. ✹ Right-click Character -> Interactions (Diplomacy) -> Open NUI Family Tree:
   Several small buttons have been added to the amazing NUI Family Tree interface from the mod NUI Family Tree (by アステリオス)
   • In the NUI Family Tree, the central character displays four generations of direct ancestors. A small tree icon appears beside each ancestor portrait, allowing you to open the dynasty tree centered on any of those ancestors.
   • NUI creates independent interactive interfaces rather than replacing vanilla game files, which gives it excellent long-term compatibility — a major advantage!

As mentioned above, the NUI section in the right-click menu is highly compatible, so the following notes mainly concern the Memories window.
• Memories Window:
  This part replaces the vanilla file “window_memories.gui”. If another mod also modifies this file, usually only the mod loaded later in the load order will take effect. Fortunately, relatively few mods modify this file.

  ✹ Compatible Mods — regarding “window_memories.gui”:

  • RITCA: [RIT]Simple Manager – Custom Address & Nickname & House:
    　Compatible, as my mod uses its framework. (Hereafter abbreviated as RITCA）
  • [PQ] Free Memory Writer:
    　Compatible, because it does not modify “window_memories.gui” at all.

“None.”
No mods are required for this mod. However, since about half of its content involves NUI: Family Tree, subscribing to NUI is recommended. The NUI-related features only work after subscribing to NUI. Without subscribing to NUI, the “Memory” window content remains available.

The NUI Family Tree runs alongside the official Dynasty Tree without replacing it. Both trees coexist and are fully compatible with the official game and other mods. Highly recommended!

There are two versions of NUI Family Tree. Check their pages and choose one:
• Original: NUI Family Tree (by アステリオス)
• Fixed: NUI: Family Tree (Fixed) (by Phenom)

My mod only affects a single NUI file. For the position of each character’s Small Dynasty Coat of Arms, I use the placement from the Fixed NUI version. In fact, this has no impact on the actual features, which is why it is compatible with both NUI.

Please place this mod below NUI: Family Tree and RITCA in your load order.

Tidy Dynasty Tree – Primogeniture Preference

• This issue only occurs when using mods that handle duplicate branches caused by in-family marriages (where both parents belong to the same dynasty). For simplicity, these will be referred to below as “special dynasty tree mods*¹

• If you are not using such special dynasty tree mods, you will never encounter this issue.
• When using these special dynasty tree mods, duplicate branches are hidden or collapsed. However, “Open Dynasty Tree” still attempts to point to the branch’s original position without avoiding the hidden sections, resulting in incorrect positioning.
• To clarify: this issue is not caused by this mod. Even if you never subscribe to this mod, the vanilla “Open Dynasty Tree” button will still point to incorrect positions whenever such special dynasty tree mods are used.
• These mods are excellent and provide a feature I have long hoped for. I am merely pointing out a small issue here.
  Personally, I am not currently using these special mods because I do not have many duplicate dynasty members, and I personally prefer dynasty trees centered on characters. However, if you play dynasties with extensive in-family marriages and many duplicate members, these mods remain highly ideal choices.
• *¹: Special Dynasty Tree Mods:
  The following mods can handle duplicate branches caused by in-family marriages (where both parents belong to the same dynasty):
  ．UDT | Ultimate Dynasty Tree
  ．Better Dynasty Tree
  ．Dynasty Tree Re-Simplified
  ．Simplified Family Tree
