@UniónPepsiLaysista can you send me a picture on discord of the popup?

When I started a civil war in Canada an annoying pop doesn't stop to appear.

How is the mod looking Christian?

Are you Still working on this mod?

awsome

Congrats!

Congrats!!! :D:D:D

@Commissar Admiral Kordoshky and @Piperjj yeah I had some problems with the flags not working with Canada. I can try again sometime this week. And yeah I graduated from college and got a job, so I had to move to a new city and state.

Did you do good inn college? :)

Any luck on the update? Can't wait to play this mod again!

@john rode offiacial I stated working on it today. I found a solution to the conscription crisis, but im going to have to go back through everything and change quite a bit. After that I'll have to go through all the focus trees and add anything that was updated in the new updates.

how are you doing?

thanks for the info

@Skylord @johnrodeoffiacial Well I haven't spent too much time with it. I graduate from college in May so I am focusing on getting a job and finishing up my classes right now. Hopefully I will have more time after I am done.

Are you still having issues, or are you waiting for canada to be updated?

please update

any update?

based

@john rode offiacial @Tamu
Im having problems with the Canadian Conscription crisis with the advent of new states. I have finals week coming up so I wont be able to finish it up until Mid december, But I have a long Christmas break so I should be able to figure something out. Thanks

how is the update going?

news?

BASED

@skylord17 I've got all the Australian state updated, but I didnt realize they added more Canadian and South african ones so i gotta do that now. I just got back from vacation so i havent been able to work on much

any luck?

@skylord I can get it updated for the new update. I gotta look through the new content though and see whats all changed

update plz

more content for inida?

Thanks, will check it out and let you know

@Soul_XP it is updated. lmk if everything is working good.

@Soul_XP yeah I can release the update with some bug fixes. Mainly the army doctrine stuff. I just looked at the conscription crisis and oil extraction and the problem is paradox changed how the states are highlighted for the decisions so i'm fixing that right now.

Any news on an update coming?

Love the mod but it really needs an update, the decisions for the conscription crisis in canada do nothing still and the western oil extraction as well.

@hakon_blum join the official discord that should work

yeah if you inbox me some discord details i can go over them, let me know what time your time you want to talk and we can work some thing out, i'm pretty good at "balancing" things so happy to assist

Sounds good just hit me up when available.

@Paradox Awesome we can try and do a discord call Friday and try and sort this stuff out.

I would be up for helping tree stuff as well for TFV, i may not be a brit and am just a guy from texas but i am one for enjoying research.

@Hakon_Blum I just fixed all of the doctrine reduction issues for every country.

I get what you are saying with the focus timing, although im not sure the specific focuses you want to change. The best way we could go over this is I could screen share and we could talk it over, it would be nice if you could help me with the other countries as well. I'm will be free this weekend friday and maybe later next week cause of spring break, if you want to do that. Otherwise I can just create some focus reductions based on less valuable focuses.

I think experimenting with different branched paths is awesome, however I would like to finish the democratic decisions and fascist tree before I begin to make more branches. Australia breaking away from Britain after declaring war on japan and making peace with germany would be cool. It could even allow US and AST to create a faction and not have US join against Germany.

4/4 It would be cool to stay with uk, swap to becoming a democracy and wooing the US during the pacific war and then voting to become a kingdom under either the king from your "facist" path, or another king, perhaps, and this is kinda crazy, but there was a large germanic influence in AUS(13% of the population was of german heritage) could be cool if assuming Germany stick with hitler you could get maybe the Kaizer or his heir to rule Aus in some kind of promise to rid hitler. Would also be cool to maybe have a civil war happen late in the communist tree, where maybe the Aboriginal community try to take back Australia by force? causing a sort of Facist Aboriginal vs communist Australia war.

3/4 And i think the base game fell along those lines, but the amazing expansion you placed on the war council, political tree, and infrastructure means they add time instead of adding options, so they need to be reduced in those trees. id suggest for example lowering the time on the first 2 trees in infrastructure, as the left 1 with trains still requires research time and a research slot, and the other one people who play AUS try to delay and line up so as to get an early rank 2 or 3 so there is no point in it taking even more then 15 days as players will work around it.

As for the political doctrines, simply have a "this requires political faction x in charge or the tech is lost rule." (just like commonwealth aircrafts focus has) as long as you don't do it to everyone and just the ones it makes sense, then people may try changing around, for example.

2/3 Now if the war is usually 1936 to 1944 then that 8 years, that means each tree should take approximately 1 year (political totalling 2 years), otherwise there wont be a time to actually enjoy completing everything. but lets say we want them not to pick everything, (and lets face it, some will do just subs or just carriers or just destroyers in navy for example)

then in that case the ideal time to complete a tree should be about 1.5 years if each thing is taking 70 days then you can only have about 7 or 8 focuses in each tree, or lets say 12 focuses if half are 36 and half are 70, hence why i think maybe take a tree of say the length of the army and total up all the long and short focuses, double the number of long focuses you count, add it to the short focuses and divide 550 days by that number, thats how long it should take.

1/3 sorry, i meant all the first tier of each branch of military do nothing, they should give a 50% reduction in the cost of the next choice in in your fighting style, but now that your fighting style tree is no longer under the research menu and is now part of the officers tab, it doesn't work as the bonus you award people from completing is a reduction in research time, and you no longer research them you spend army/navy/air force xp.

As to your mention about timings, if we brake up the trees into army, navy, airforce, infrastructure, war policy, political spectrum, and finally overseas development. if we say we want to allow people to maybe switch politcial spectrum, or have that tree twice as long, then that gives us 8 major things.

@Hakon_Blum pt.2
The fascist AST path can get some cores on Indonesia and Singapore, but I am working on letting Australia unite the SWPA as a democrat and have decisions to ask for the SWPA islands and even more.

I talked with someone a while back about all the focus times and we went through them all. If you want to talk sometime about them I can, its kinda the easiest way to do them. One thing though is, while the focus tree should be complete-able before the end of the game, they player should have to choose which path to focus on more and maybe putting off some focuses for a stronger navy, army, airforce, economy.,etc.

@Hakon_Blum Thanks for the feedback. I could start them off with 2 slots then give them an extra one whenever the get NZL as a puppet or by force or confederation.

I'm not sure what you mean by focuses which give a reduction to focuses.

I checked a little bit of the tool tip for Sever ties with UK, it seems to be working fine. Remember that Japan has to own some part of the South West Pacific for the focus to be select-able.

I've always wanted to experiment with reset-able focus paths in my Ukraine mod, but the problem is getting rid of all the ideas of the previous ideology can be difficult.

I feel that a better thing for the doctrine would just be that not giving AST a doctrine research at the start. I do want to add more designers to all countries eventually, but it just takes time.

I can see about doing some sort of mountaineer focus for AST

One more thing to add, I love having 3 research slots, but feel it’s a little unrealistic, a solution might be, start with 2 slots, but if you form the anz alliance, you get an extra slot representing New Zealand’s contribution towards research.

Meaning you can have 3 slots after about 70 days, but don’t start that way.

1/5 okay so found an issue after some play testing, the focuses that are suppose to give a reduction to focuses don't do it.

Also once you go down the side with UK path the sever ties with UK becomes unselectable,but the tool tip never states this, i hope this isn't as intended and just missing a tool tip, as sometimes early game i want to support UK until japan enters then go team up with USA so having the option to change path would be good.

Infact the option to change to any path at any time would be good, maybe instead of the trees being locked by needing the previous tech all the time, maybe have techs that let you enter each branch at a later date but require the government to have swung that way.
As an example make a focus called "support the centre party 2" with a requirement that it is after 1941 and you have a facist percentage over 40%, same for sever ties with uk, and empower the workers.

2/5 Another big one for me, is maybe have the first army/navy/airforce focus allow you to change your first doctrine to a different tree if you so choose so you can try playing different ways on different play throughs. Also more spirits choices are needed. as are designers in all 3 fields, you can unlock commonwealth aircraft corp, but their aren't any alternatives for the other paths.

One thing i've always wanted for Australia, but dont even know if its possible is the special forces to be different for them, as Australia only have 2 types of SF in real life, SAS which are a combination of mountaneers and paratroopers, and Commandoes which are a combination of Mountaneers and Marines, would be cool if australia had just SAS paratroopers and Commando Marines but both got half the benefits of mountaineers, just an idea for you.

3/5 Also i feel a focus needs to exist that allows you to gain cores on malaysia/singaore, borneo, indonesia, and papau. And if you take New Zealand with the ANZ union, having the ability to claim polynesia (or at the very least new caledonia) like you can do as new zealand in the base game would be good.

4/5 Another thing, and this is totally optional, but few years ago got into scifi game called infinity, long story short the most powerful faction was a futuristic Australia, which had become known as PAN'O (Pacific Australian Nato Organisation i believe, could be wrong) anyway maybe if like how new zealand can form polynesia, maybe if Australia had an achievement it could gain when it controlled all ilands in the pacific (including japan) and vietnam (maybe a similar thing where you talk the french into letting you mind it, like you do to uk about malaysia since they are busy being destroyed by germany) you would also need a diplomatic way to take the little piece of indonesia of portugal.

5/5 Finally, i know this would be a lot of work, but if some focuses could open up if you control certain areas, like if you annex malaysia a new tree becomes available, dito for new zealand, and indonesia etc, i think this really could be the best focus tree in the game.

My last recomendation is you have everything either 35 or 70 days, maybe mix it up, so we can get through the tree before the games over, maybe reduce times on some focuses, but have them open up decisions that require pp so it still theoretically takes the same time but you could simply do a focus and do half the bonuses for less time if you dont want everything it offers.

Sorry for the long post, but i hope it gives you plenty to think about on top of the 2 small erros i found, i'll keep looking and playing to find more for you.
