Mariero Ghetto - since it says that you have to be AI otherwise, I think it means you literally have to sail your boats over to with your character leading an army on the boats.

Maybe it was not Denmark that did the decision ; a Viking ruler had the Sweden kingdom title (but a vast territory with Norway; Sweden, Denmark, Saxony and Pommerania), and at his death, this big kingdom was split beetween his sons (Gavelkind you know ^^), and Iceland became danish
Thank you for fixing the problem with de-jure Norway :)

@Arion68 Wat?A Denmark AI take the decision? Something must have gone terribly wrong.:steamfacepalm:
Anyway I fix the problem that creating kingdom of Norway, Iceland as a a free giveaway.
Basically CK2 trying to "fix" its de jure structure on every savegame starting. It causes the problem.

@Chitose
Thank you for the answer :)
I fixed it with the console command "decision settle_iceland", the empty county became mine.
The main problem here was that when I created the kingdom of Norway, Iceland was settled by me (with a modifier "poor land" or something like that, that I was able to remove via a province decision) ; I would hav prefered that Iceland has been locked until the decision at the Viking Age.
However, it seems to work correctly for the IA in an other game when I play Venice... (entire Iceland became Viking, but de-jure Denmark this time).

@Arion68
Sorry for replying late and I can not reproduce the error you say. Would you upload the savegame that I can debug with?
Arion68 27 Aug, 2019 @ 12:51pm 
Nice mod :)
But if you form the kingdom of Norway, Iceland is automatically settled... except the county of Vesturland which remains empty
Is it normal and will be fixed later in the game (I passed the Viking Age event and didn't get the decision to settle).

thats a shame oh well
Yellownes 23 Aug, 2019 @ 6:36am 
No
Ashadar Re'souley 22 Aug, 2019 @ 1:09pm 
Just to be clear are you saying this mod works with achievements?
WASR-10 22 Aug, 2019 @ 9:24am 
Ah that makes sense
Chitose  [author] 22 Aug, 2019 @ 9:22am 
@Dragatus
>For landlocked, non-seafaring Habsburgs guy who luckily inherits Edinburgh? No that's not make any sense for me. Moreover, there's already capital regions limits.
@WASR-10
>Did you press "Play" and start a game? This mod only triggers on game start setup and it's auto-disabled if player choose 867 iceland Norse character.
@NexusModel
>OK next question.

Dragatus 22 Aug, 2019 @ 2:16am 
Perhaps it would make sense to give the decision to anyone with a capital in the regions of Britain and Scandinavia instead of making it based on culture?
WASR-10 21 Aug, 2019 @ 8:49pm 
not working for me, still have the papars and vikings in the early start dates
Chariots of the Gods 21 Aug, 2019 @ 3:52am 
only one question.... save game compatiable?
Blue 19 Aug, 2019 @ 4:59am 
Not really a mod "I'M" personally interested in using, but this one definitely caught my eye when I was looking at CK2 in my Steam Library. Just wanted to say I respect the time and energy modders like you, who take the time out of their day to create and share their work... All for free! The modding community never ceases to amaze me. Alright, what was I doing before this? IDK I need coffee, or sleep... Definitely going with coffee.

I was hoping for Iceland to be inhabited by Polar Bears.

"The reason why they have them as irish monks, though, is because there is some historical evidence that there may have been an original such (very, very small) population of monks on the island before germanic settlement"

Yes, Irish monks makes sense. However, the game cannot model the small population you're talking about. What we have in vanilla is a fully-developed theocratic government, which does not reflect the historical reality of what the Papars were (or might have been).

In any case, even if the Papars were there before the Vikings, that doesn't mean they were there in 769. There's inconclusive evidence about when they actually first showed up.

So... having it totally uninhabited in 769 is probably the best solution that can be achieved in Ck2. If the game had 'natives' and uncolonized provinces like Eu4, that would be ideal; have a native population of Irish Catholics, that you can displace or assimilate - however, Ck2 can't model that.

The reason why they have them as irish monks, though, is because there is some historical evidence that there may have been an original such (very, very small) population of monks on the island before germanic settlement, much like we know for a fact existed on the orkney and faroe islands. It is, however, debated.

"Is located in southern coast of Iceland"? Does this mean you have a ship sail there?
Chitose  [author] 18 Aug, 2019 @ 4:48am 
@Najkel Try this mod and get rid of the old, broken, vanilla one. @Bread explained on it. And it 's not really overcompensating thing for AI, I'd say it is a limit for human player from rushing and getting profit. Thanks for your suggestions with codes.
BreadandYeast 18 Aug, 2019 @ 2:34am 
Also, rather than having the decision easier for AI to complete, just make it so that after a certain time, Iceland will be colonized by Norse seafarers and become independent with 4 tribal chiefs. The AI doesn't need anymore hand holding to overcompensate for its lack of intellegence.
BreadandYeast 18 Aug, 2019 @ 2:25am 
There was already an province decision to "settle" Iceland, but it was really broken, it'd convert the culture and religion to yours but remained undercontrol of those Irish monks. It also had a lack of conditions, so I could be a landlocked African opm and still use the decision. And boom, pagan africans in Iceland
Fred 18 Aug, 2019 @ 12:21am 
Vikings could settle iceland during viking age by decision i think
Sullivas 16 Aug, 2019 @ 10:48pm 
Woah! Never knew this could be done! Now I want this to generate a decision to colonize provinces that are bordered so that a thanos snap mod like EU4's is possible. The possibilities of this are great!
