Tor’s Pruning Mod
Hello Again!
This is basically a mini mod that I made.
Most people know that CK3 suffers huge amounts of lag in the late game, one of the key reasons is that there are simply to many characters for the game to handle, each with the AI determining individual aspects for, as well as having events fired upon them. Now what CK2, and I believe CK3 do to mitigate this, is ‘Pruning’, which kills off women above the age of 35, because the game determined them to be unimportant for the game, as they would seldom become rulers, and by that point they would be infertile.
I however took this a step further, now any character who I deem ‘Irrelevant’, will be automatically "killed off", effectively simulating the fact that noble families sort of stopped caring about distant family members, having them basically ‘fall out of relevancy’. This makes it so that any character who is not a councillor, knight, claimant, or ruler, as well as their primary spouses, will be pruned off starting at the age of 20, which will increase exponentially depending on various factors of their extended family members.
Naturally this would make some players upset that their grand revenge plot to kill all the Karlings, after they have long since fallen out of relevancy, impossible, as they would just die on their own. However fear not, for there are two new interactions you can do on the AI, which will make them and their children remain relevant, by protecting them from the pruning check.
I hope that this will help mitigate most of the issues late game, but I can not promise everything to work 100%, and if there are any issues, please feel free to join my Discord, and complain about them.

Also, I am currently working on a large update to Old World’s Demise, which is nearing completion, I don’t want to spoil to much of it, but you should know that the mod is roughly 9000 provinces bigger than ever before, and with a tonne of new features to play around with
