@꧁༒☬ŧŏאַїċ☬༒Z that would be nice but iunfortunatly i am the last dev who works on Chicago atm and other than getting the map up and running im done modding so i can spend more time on my career.

@Jack_the_ripper711 if you wanna get started you can join the RBR discord and our members are usually more than glad to help out on getting started just @me or someone else on the team.

@TiiMe wouldn't work for the tedious things i have to do without having some API created with all the maps and states already hooked up (there is not one)

actively waiting for rustbelts to finally rise, of whatever the hell this mod is actually about
I would like the relationship between chicago and raven Rock to be modeled as a balance of power system in the style of TNO including GUI elements like power struggle bars, regional status indicators, and dynamic decision tabs. Chicago's expansionism should also follow the TNO style for example including details on which regions were conquered, which were pacified, and so on. preferably visualized on a map.

i could never understand coding, but seeing how much effort mod authors put in for stuff like this makes me want to try again someday.

Grok got an update and everyone's praising its ability to program. Maybe you could use it to see if changing the values via the LLM is possible. I've used it on one of my submods and it seems helpful for rudimentary stuff

@BigBoy_Liam not possible for the things I have to do. It's not a lot to do if you were a smaller sized map mod like ECR or Florida. But RBR is quite large so it just takes a bit longer.

@Ponomarev D. who do you think is probably gonna have to fix NER (╥﹏╥) (New England was originally developed by RBR devs)

@Dumbass Deer (Not a Reindeer) more than 50% less than 100%
BigBoy_Liam 11 Jul @ 2:21am 
Is there a way to automate the work, or you have to do it all by hand/manually to fix the map?? seems very repetitive
Remixer600 11 Jul @ 1:32am 
broken now
VanDuGangst 10 Jul @ 11:53pm 
The devs work harder then factory kids in the 1900s
Ponomarev D. 10 Jul @ 10:25am 
@Dean200027 If you've been working on map fixes for so long, I'm afraid to imagine how long it will take the New England Rising team to update their mod! They need to update the map of virtually all of Canada and the New England Commonwealth!
Dumbass Deer (Not a Reindeer) 10 Jul @ 10:02am 
but i wonder how much progress in terms of prescentage

You have blood on your hands devs

Thank you for your sacrifices Dean
Dean200027  [author] 9 Jul @ 2:10pm 
Were still working on it. I've spent about 27 hours over the last 4 days fixing states and editing state manpower, state categories and the starting buildings for states. theirs still quite a lot of work to be done but progress is progress.

Maybe the real Chicago is the friends we made along the way

Cakemixing 9 Jul @ 8:33am 
I check this mod everyday just so I can get my precious chicago enclave final battle
Battleship Potemkin 9 Jul @ 8:14am 
True
BonkerClonker 9 Jul @ 7:04am 
Feeling like a crack addict checking in on this mod
Dean200027  [author] 9 Jul @ 12:38am 
@Reiker Forge all map expansions have our own mutual discord we actually work together on things and even have the same developers a lot of times. Were a fairly intertwined group already ALSO this mod is dependent on ECR.
Reiker Forge 8 Jul @ 10:32pm 
Thanks for getting around to updating the mod, you probably already know but you'll have to make a compatibility patch for East Coast Rebirth too when you have time, since that mod I believe just updated the world itself to add new cores.

bearmonroe333 8 Jul @ 7:07pm 
when is this going to update
Dean200027  [author] 8 Jul @ 6:26pm 
@Capybara check the discord in sneak peaks and you can see why that will not be possible. i cant post pictures in steam comments or i would post it here.

Hers the short version without the pictures/ context

The reason we don't just push a patch fix is becuase just for the map to work we have to go through and replace every single building, state manpower, port, airfield, fort , resource, infrastructure etc.

If that dosent bother you and you just want to conquer it to map paint i get that BUT there are no railroads or supply points in a incomplete map and OWB dosent let you build them so your units are just gonna starve and you wont be able to make it past Kansas.
theman1438 8 Jul @ 1:21pm 
OWB is kinda map mod hell so when that breaks or gets changed in this case with the main OWB and ECR it gets quite messy I would imagine
Capybara 8 Jul @ 12:40pm 
Is it possible for you to just fix the mod before your big update?
BigBoy_Liam 8 Jul @ 3:24am 
Who else is excited?
Dean200027  [author] 7 Jul @ 9:35pm 
@12wnathaniel probably Midwestern brotherhood Irons path personally. That or maybe Chicago since it's as finished as im going to get it for the time being.
12wnathaniel 7 Jul @ 7:11pm 
When the update happens who do y'all recommend playing as first?
Siren System 7 Jul @ 3:56pm 
can't wait to fully unite Canada again (via the most roundabout rout of all time of course)

Chicago Enclave made horse girls when?
cosmetics 7 Jul @ 8:39am 
yea bro. "trust the process"
Dean200027  [author] 7 Jul @ 7:58am 
@Opaarz_ it's for scientific research. Trust the process lol
Opaarz_ 7 Jul @ 7:40am 
If only the devs weren't playing Umamusume: Pretty Derby the mod might already be out!
(Just kidding, wish you all the best :steamhappy:)
Lolbotkiller  [author] 7 Jul @ 6:50am 
Guys I think the mod doesnt work. Idk I cant read ;)

Yes, the mod doesnt work. We havent updated yet!!
[DK] Wunstachio 7 Jul @ 5:18am 
This mod doesn't work for me since the main mod (OWB) was updated. don't know what the issue may be
GreaterOntario 6 Jul @ 7:46pm 
Great job on this mod! I cant wait til it comes out so I can defeat the COmmie basterds in CHaicgo!!
Karmagrenade 6 Jul @ 4:38pm
