I've just uploaded a sixth open beta version of patch 2.1.5 to Steam.
If you want to help us test it, right click the game in the Steam client, choose Properties, click the "Betas" tab and select the "Beta 2.1.5.6" version of the game.

We are now trying to stabalize this patch to a point where it can be released as a regular patch, so the main push this time is a lot of crash fixes and minor bug fixes to issues that have cropped up recently.
We have also added a whole bunch of Captain Gars's Modding improvements and some much needed AI fixes.

- Fixed bug for Muslim rulers where your latest wife was set as your First Wife, instead of the wife you first married.
- Fixed bug where AI republic characters with other titles did not build trade posts.
- Fixed bug where the graphic for special units changed when merged with troops of another culture.

Hello good folk,

I have started a sticked thread in the Bug Forums for you all who have issues with non-working achievements. If you DO have any achievements that are not being fired when the conditions are met, please do add them to the stickied thread so that the QA team can have a better overview on which ones you are having trouble with. The reason for this is an upcoming re-test of said achievements in the near future.

You can find the stickied thread here: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?782720-Non-working-Achievements-Post-here!

I am glad that the patch has progressed to this point.

I am disappointed in the following "minor" change: - Kingdom of Jerusalem's duchies can no longer be assimilated by other kingdoms.

Wasn't it the case already, with k_jerusalem taking the "assimilate = no" declaration? Or have I missed something going on?

- Converter missing cultures should now be fixed
- Invalid icons for converter should now be updated to latest version of eu4
- Fixed another crash in converter associated with major revolt titles.

It looks like Khanty, Karluk, Kirghiz cultures are still missing... I'm not sure what you guys fixed.
The kingdoms of Afghanistan and Baluchistan don't have an entry in nation_table.
Miaphysite/Monophysite exports to Orthodox instead of Coptic (and miaphysite_heresy is missing in 02_converted_heresies). Ibadi exports to Sunni instead of Ibadi.
Also you really could have made use of the new icon system to get rid of those 6 extra religious icons that are used for heresies.
 
- check_variable trigger now take a scope or second variable as a right-side argument
- Added subtract_variable, multiply_variable and divide_variable effects
- All variable effects now take a scope or second variable as right-side argument

yay! more variable modifiers.

thanks guys!

what made you expand the variable system?

also what does "take a scope or second variable as right-side argument" mean, i would probably understand it if i saw it in the code but im having trouble imagining it in my head, are there examples in the base game files?

thanks again! its great to see you add things for modders like this!
 
- demesne_size modifier is now possible to set in laws
- added demesne_size modifier (incremental, not multiplicative)
YES +1

I guess that means jain demesne bonus is no longer hardcoded to jain religion name?
