Hello, Good to see this game is still being worked on!

I have the Third part combat system on to test it as well, and a couple of times it couldn't load the battle file.
By the way, is it only asking for this option when I am attacking? I haven't let me chose the option when defending.

A minor ...

The Spain AI declared war on France, stacked it's corps for invasion, and then it's just been sitting on it's thumb, not moving for I think over a year now.
Even with France, at some point, as weak as can ever be expected it still did nothing. Russia and Austria also sent troops to just skim the ...

I mentioned that I would say something more about Hotfix #4. So, a few comments.

I had some complaints about the AI die roll bonuses, so I reduced AI combat die roll bonus from +2/+1 Hard/Med to just +1 Hard. This helps make the AI more challenging, and when one considers all of the other ...

ROTFLMAO.

I got these and I'm reviewing them. Fixed the Free State contol, Morocco conquer, and Russian leader issues. Looking at the rest. I sent you a PM. Take a look and get back to me?

However, we're seeing a bunch of glaring bugs with the newest patch.
-Leaders not participating in battles, but joining at the end of the battle (seems to be area dependant, like Turkish leaders not taking part in battles in Turkey, but being there in Russia)
-Teleporting ship counters
-Moving ...

I want to make a Public Service Announcement here. PLEASE download and install v1.27.03 Beta and Hotfix #3 and play some over the next several weeks. I REALLY need feedback going into v1.27.04 as a release candidate for the next (final) official update. If there are any lingering issues, I need to ...

Hotfix #3 posted. This is again a comprehensive update with Data and Setups files included. Changes include:
- fixed combat_eliminate_all_units to exclude garrisons if not siege battle
- fixed ai_look_at_amphib for 1805 DOWs vs later amphib ops
- fixed naval AI to unload invasion supply depot if not ...

But yeah, if it's way too much then that's okay.


I understand. I've looked at this a couple more times and tried a couple of different approaches but cannot get those panels to move. It should be doable. It's annoying me that nothing is working. I'll poke at it some more and if I get it to work ...

Would it be possible


Well, yes and no. Sure, most anything is possible. Back in v1.24.00, I wrestled with scaling the UI up about 40-50% as it was tiny on a modern wide-screen size; this was resolved with the top menu bar scaled up 50% - large enough to be an improvement but not so large to ...

OK, got it! Thank you for your patience. I will take some time over the next week to dig into this. Are there particular areas you'd like a set of eyes on?


And thank you for your patience! I know I challenge everyone's patience with this game, with all of the back-and-forth fixes and fixes on ...

Hotfix #2 posted. This is a comprehensive update with Data and Setups files included. Changes include:
- fixed ai_land_amphib_forces to besiege city only if no enemy rural forces
- fixed combat_setup_naval_battle to verify adjacent fleets only for interception battle attackers
- adjusted ai_assign ...

1st post above has v1.27.03 Beta[0]. The hotfix is Beta[2].

I was unable to install this...
Thanks for all that you do to keep this one alive.


You need to do the official install and official v1.26.04 update first, then the v1.27.03 Beta, and then the hotfix. Try that.

I note that not many players are bothering with my interim Hotfix #2 updates. I get ...

Context : as France, I defeat Prussia. Surrender, forced peace in action. 2 turns after that, they attack Hesse that I am SUPPOSED to defend... but there is no war between us.


If I understand, Prussia DOWed Hesse and you got control. That's fine, the controlling MP is not technically at war, it ...

Interesting. Thank you for the report and a good game save. I went ahead and fixed this for you so you can continue your game (see attached). For whatever reason, Warsaw still shows city controlled by Prussia despited being ceded. The other two provinces are fine. I'm adding checks to cede_minor ...

Late-War AI Issues, Part 2

I continue to focus most of my playtesting on the late-war scenarios. I've made several AI adjustments and its better. But I generally playtest with HardAI for all opponents and I find that AI France struggles. Lately, I've been playing Austria but with AI France at ...
