#

you don't type it out every time for different focus

#

you just create a scripted effect which encompasses all necessary conditions and effects, then fire that scripted effect

#

much shorter

#

also makes it easier to see

#

lul instead of typing this shjt + some similar shjts every time, you can break them down and group up similar effect in the same scripted effect

#

but really for HoI4 modding, you just need to read the base game

#

whatever they do

#

you copy them

#

the game is hardcoded to run like shit after 1943

#

1940 if you're playing on multiplayer

grizzled sandal
#

And thats a shame cuz there isnt much to do after 45 really

#

The game is laggy asf, most focus trees are already finished and you end up researching useless things you dont even need anymore

rose heath
#

i want to fully finish a multiplayer game from 36 to 45 in like 3/4 hours and not sit there for 2 days

#

i think it would be best if they ditched the hour system and developed a game where everything happens on a day system

#

like they did in some of their other games

#

and the more DLCs we get the more it's gonna lag

#

i mean i sure don't have the strongest PC out there but cmon man it's a map

grizzled sandal
#

lol

#

or like civ6 does, a turn based game

Because having everyone run at the same time makes it hella heavy

germany despite the nerfs managed to take moscow

but it doesn't matter because soviets are not even close to capitulating while their front is 200km away from moscow

I’ve been playing historical focus as fascist Brazil. Conquered all of South America and Cuba, I stayed out of the greater war and sent 100% of my production (fuel, inf equip, sprt equip, , artillery, anti-air, trucks, trains, convoys, etc) to Germany and they still lost in three play throughs.

Hi, I used to have "More States" as a mod. Now I want to use a different states mod, but everytime I start the game it says it can't load the map. what do i do?

#

Even happens when I start the game with no mods

#

I think the game still thinks I have the more states mod because even with no mods enabled and the "more states" mod deleted, the error.log file says the game is searching for state ids that normally dont exist in the game

# obtuse condor then check the codding files

so i already checked the error logs, and there is nothing there. I checked with Chat GPT since i had no one to turn to at the time. After clearing everything up, i tried the mod again, only for it to still not work. I'm not sure what on earth i am doing wrong, but i must be messing something up. I checked the files once more, and even posted them into the Chat GPT to see if it was all right, which it said it was. So i'm not sure what is wrong.

modern solstice
#

is it possible to block doctrine for a major? (smth like in the focus trees)

digital heart
#

Wdym by “block doctrine”

#

If you want a nation to be unable to go down a certain doctrine you can go into the doctrine files and changed the availability (like how you can only get future doctrines after spending the xp on the previous ones) by blocking the availability of a certain nation tag or if they have completed a certain focus

modern solstice
#

like : if u are major u cant pick mass mob doc

digital heart
#

Idk why you would do that but you can either attach it to a national idea or add the nation tags under the availability (second option is probably easier)

modern solstice
#

somewhere

digital heart
#

Yeah, I don’t know if is_major is the right one but you can do something like that

in this case

not exactly haHaa

because in this case you have to do PREV

what you do is that in effect

you do

random_other_country = {

SYR = { create_wargoal = { target = PREV type = take_state_focus } } }

    owner = {

What is the "best" Social Order for RT56?

A) +5% to, resource gain eff, Stability and Factory output, +50% ideology drift defense
B) -5% stab, +5 Max command power, 5% faster build of both Mill Factories and Dockyards
C) -5% stab, +10% research speed, 10% faster build for silos and reactors
D) -5% stab, +100% monthly population, 5% faster build Infrastructure and Civ Factory
E) -5% stab, 0.50% recruitable pop, 15% faster fort(both) build speed

vague relic
#

C is definitely top if you do not need the manpower

umbral hull
#

i tend to lean D to start and eventualy either A or B

vague relic
#

Then why ask

umbral hull
#

intrested in seeing others opions and thoughts

#

see if there is something im not seeing

vague relic
#

10 research boost speed is a lot more significant than a 5% civ build speed

#

Or mil factory bonus

umbral hull
#

ok

monthly pop

best way to start

but honestly starting with C is probably better

[22:13:33][1936.01.01.12][persistent.cpp:45]: Error: "A limit for module fixed_explosive_charge already exists: }, near line: 113" in file: "common/units/equipment/plane_airframes.txt" near line: 113
[22:13:33][1936.01.01.12][persistent.cpp:45]: Error: "A limit for module self_sealing_fuel_tanks_small already exists: }, near line: 118" in file: "common/units/equipment/plane_airframes.txt" near line: 118

can't I just ignore it?

#

or will it make my mp games desync/crash

#

If I limited max special modules for tank chassis, will it descync too? cause some countries already have some designs of tanks

#

where they are like 3 modules

#

cause if it does desync (the module limitter) I will change it but I just want to save my time

#

does scripted localization work on events? like could i make multiple decisions trigger the same event but have different text depending which decision triggered it, or would i need to just make multiple events

barren oak
#

Can someone help with my localisation

#

it doesnt seem to work

toxic bane
stuck quarry
#

honestlyi figured it would be easier to jsut add another localization line for the state

#

each decision does the same thing just with a different state so idk

summer lotus
#

but you have to tie decision to a country or global flag

#

or variable

#

and do

desc = { text = "abc" trigger = flag }

for the event

#

if you need to state based localization,

#

well, first, from event/decision, use state ID to save as event target

#

then in localization, use event_target.getstatename or sth I forgot

stuck quarry
#

hell yea it worked

#

this is gonna be so cool

#

Wouldn’t you rather have a normal event than a news event?

stuck quarry
#

I changed it after sending the acreenshot

Super cool tho, gonna be a really neat part of my mod

# timber zenith What AI are you using?
Colorize Images Online – Easy Photo Colorization

Our AI-based image colorizer will help you colorize black and white images online, automatically and for free. Add natural, realistic colors to old photographs.

#

know that the first one is limited and the other one is gonna leave a watermark and won't allow you to download without paying but you can use it anyway with smart usage of screenshoting

#

to avoid the watermark simply expand the photo and then cut out the watermark

#

the coloring tool has limited uses but it should be enough for multiple portraits for your mod

Can you make it so if you have a defines file for something, a game rule in game can chopse if it is activated or not, or are defines not possible to integrate into custom game rules?

#

what goes wrong?

wary timber
#

It won't register in playsets

#

I tried both mod folder thing, and I also tried subscribing in workshop then changing files into older version, however it just doesn't work anyway.

edgy pike
#

when you put the folder in the mod folder did you move the .mod file outside the folder?

wary timber
#

Yeah

#

And I deleted it from folder

#

I unzipped file into mod folder, than took out .mod file and placed it next to unzipped folder

#

Like that

edgy pike
#

hmmm idk, maybe make your own mod and swap the files there? idk if they allow that or whatnot xd

wary timber
#

I mean, I wouldn't really try that hard, but I have progressed 30 years in the game and made 30 billion GDP, so it's kinda sucks that due to incompatibility between saves and mod it's not possible to run them properly now

worldly timber
#

how do I add a custom background to the tracklist of my custom radio station?

#

so it would be something else instead of the old paper

humble cedar
#

So i am currently working on a mod where pressumably Greece wins the Greco-Turkish war of 1919-1922.

But i keep running into a weird thing that the error log says that a state doesn't have any provinces but when i check that specific state, all the provinces are there.

worldly timber
#

as an example this is a piece from the gfx file of the allied radio dlc

#

but what are these 1.0 values

#

are those RGB?

humble cedar
#

I don't know much of modding but i think i can be a bit of use.

#

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

worldly timber
#

I want to make a custom GUI for my music mod

humble cedar
#

changing the color?

#

i pressume?

worldly timber
#

like the DLCs

humble cedar
#

wait you mean like

#

an "album"

worldly timber
#

custom header but also change the background from the light brown paper to something different

#

and the font

#

so far by looking through gfx and gui files I've got the general idea how to do that

#

but haven't tried yet

humble cedar
#

so you my friendo are trying to change the whole radio itself?

#

with different colors and letters?

worldly timber
#

yes

humble cedar
#

wouldn't it be logical if you had to place smth in like

#

the gfx folder

worldly timber
#

yes

#

that's exactly what's done in the dlc for example

#

ok nevermind I should try myself and then ask more precisely

humble cedar
#

Like i said, i won't be of any use but i'll try to help either way

#

hmm.

#

have you tried changing the rgb thingies to see if it does any changes?

#

to the radio?

worldly timber
#

I haven't tried anything yet

humble cedar
#

well anyways, on my side

#

things are looking nice

stuck quarry
#

that total pain in the ass moment when the mod im developing stops showing up in the launcher after i try to upload it to steam

#

Or are you making a state mod

humble cedar

to make greece a bit more stronger

obtuse condor
humble cedar
#

Here's my current progress so far !

#

I'll have to figure out how to make the Straits Comission as a country.

obtuse condor
humble cedar
#

and how to make it so armenia has a custom name on start

humble cedar
#

and plus, im just copying the states from Fuhrreredux since they were the most realistic-looking

#

I'll have to make some changes in the provinces map.

#

to make them match the ideal plans

#

and i'll have to completely remove the turkish focus tree.

#

and then start making actual progress

obtuse condor
#

Carpathian Ukraine and western Ukraine should be under the house of Holstein-Gottorp-Romanov tbh NGL imo btw sts

humble cedar
#

why's that?

#

Well i mean, im not planning to change the entire game

#

only the outcome of the Greco-Turkish war of 1919-1922

#

not going to like, dive into researching it a lot.

obtuse condor
humble cedar
#

now that you are here

#

would it make sense for me to make it so Turkey falls into a civil war like spain at the start of the game

#

between the Young turks and the Ottoman Sultanate?

obtuse condor
#

Yeah that would make sense

#

Young Turks vs the Ottoman empire

humble cedar
#

oof, just realised i'll have to make the ottomans rule turkey

#

i've never dived into changing that type of stuff before

#

never before have i completely changed the rulers of a country

#

it's probably not so hard

obtuse condor
#

You will need to make characters tbh

humble cedar
#

do i really have to make characters?

#

can't i use like, the already existing stuff

#

oh wait nvm i remembered

#

i do need to make a new character for a ruler of a nation i think

#

because focus trees just

#

take a png, and combine it with a name and a trait

obtuse condor
#

Common/country_leader and the history files

humble cedar
#

yep i'll try my luck with that tommorow probably

#

1st i'll have to figure out how to make an entirely new country.

#

for the Straits Comission

obtuse condor
#

I have been wanting to add some extra nations in Austria Hungary

#

And some in somewhat nearby regions

humble cedar
#

now that you mentioned austria-hungary

#

I have made some states that restore hungary to it's rightful borders

#

only in serbia, that is

#

oh wait

#

i forgot about German Hungary state and the very north tip of slovenia...

obtuse condor
#

Hmmm aren't you going to make Burgenland prekmurje and fix the polish Slovak border

humble cedar
#

and how exactly would i "fix" the polish slovak border?

obtuse condor
#

Prekmurje is that one Slovene province next to Hungary

obtuse condor
#

Southern zaolzie should be part of Slovakia

humble cedar
#

I'll try to fix that, somehow.

#

so i should just copy kaiserreich province states ?

humble cedar
#

Alright,I'll do that tommorow

#

right now I'll focus on correcting the provinces state for Turkey and Greece

#

that is, only the most eastern parts

#

because the italian-greco-turkish borders look just fine

#

now, question is.

#

Shall i make Northern Epirus part of Greece?

#

or would that be unrealistic?

#

because after the Balkan Wars Albania became Independent with Northern Epirus included in it

obtuse condor
#

Yeah make northern Epirus Greek

humble cedar
obtuse condor
#

Yeah

humble cedar
#

Intresting

#

what is it about?

obtuse condor
#

Just a vanilla mod

#

With extra states events decisions

#

Nations too and scenarios

humble cedar
#

and more "liberateable" countries?

obtuse condor
#

I'm adding scenarios for 1444 1600 1700 1789 1800 1836 1900

#

Possible 1919 and 1813 too

#

Imagine this: dynamic AI generated focus tree mod meant specifically for importing saves from other games for megacampaigns

#

Like lets say you're importing from your save where the heavenly kingdom still exists instead of the guangxi clique, or Spain retook much of its empire, or India is already independent, etc, and it would take into account the current state of all existing countries and make focus trees that make sense for them

i just know this person is gonna be so dissappointed

#

lemme just open up hoi4 real quick

#

before i show the minor border changes

stuck quarry
stuck quarry
#

oops sorry for ping

humble cedar
#

it's fine i don't mind the pings

humble cedar
#

so far everything is going along nicely.

#

Although i'll have to figure out how to rename Armenia to be a "Government-In-Exile"

#

and how to create an entirely new country

#

named

#

"The Straits Comission"

#

which is pretty self-explanontary where it's going to be placed.

#

and i'll make that Straits Comissision be Guaranteed by United Kingdom, France, Italy, Soviet Union and Greece

#

then i'l probably make it collapse near 1937 and 1938 to trigger a war between the Turks and Greeks

#

if Greece wins, they get the remaining lands if they choose a regular path.

#

and by remaining lands i mean

#

Constantinople, Bursa, Dardanelles and Ellispontos

#

if Turkey wins the opposite happens

#

Greeks get kicked out of the middle east

#

and turkey gets everything all the way to Adrianople

#

and then i'll probably give Turkey foccuses to slowly get war-goals on Kurdistan, Italy, Armenia and the french-controlled lands

stuck quarry
#

sounds interesting

#

i know nothing about anything you just said lol

#

how can i make these stay centered over their respective states instead of moving left when i zoom out
