The time has finally come for you all to enjoy the fruits of our labor, the release version of our 1.20 Ming Update.

Please do not report any issues with the update in this thread, instead post proper bug reports in our bug report forum, thank you!

And as usual, you should not load up any games started in 1.19.x in version 1.20. This will cause issues and unpleasant surprises. Especially if you are achievement hunting in Ironman, this will be a big problem for you. If you wish to finish any ongoing games, then please do so in 1.19.2. You can find instructions on how to play on a previous version here!

Enjoy!

WOOOOOOO! Now to get back home from work... :D
The expansion itself isn't coming for another 55 minutes though, so you have plenty of time to get home.:p
 
@Grand Historian Jake just revealed in the release stream that the Oda clan can come into existence later in the game despite not being around in 1444.
 
Oh! I take it by event?
No idea---Jake just mentioned that it can happen as a reply to people asking about Japanese ideas/tags. We'll have to wait until the expansion releases I'll guess. Or actually it might actually already be in the files. Will take a look.
 
Oh! I take it by event?
First rules in the files is this bloke, so I'd guess that it's in from 1490 onwards with regard to game starts.

1490.1.1 = {
monarch = {
name = "Tatsukatsu"
dynasty = "Oda"
adm = 2
dip = 2
mil = 2
}
}


Nobunaga is in too; and he gets the below heir from 1557 onwards.

1551.4.8 = {
monarch = {
name = "Nobunaga"
dynasty = "Oda"
# birth_date = 1534.6.23
# death_date = 1582.6.21
adm = 5
dip = 5
mil = 6
}
clear_scripted_personalities = yes
add_ruler_personality = free_thinker_personality
add_ruler_personality = tolerant_personality
add_ruler_personality = midas_touched_personality
}

1557.1.1 = {
heir = {
name = "Nobutada"
monarch_name = "Nobutada"
dynasty = "Oda"
birth_date = 1557.1.1
death_date = 1582.6.21
claim = 90
adm = 4
dip = 4
mil = 4
}
}
 
Awesome!
At first when I read that bankrupcies no longer kill your morale, etc. I was thinking that it just got easier... then I read about it smashin' all buildings built in the last five years. I like the trade off, cause the morale loss was non-reasonable before.

Also LOVE that development mapmode now scales colors (if I understood it correctly!)
 
Oh! I take it by event?
Tried grepping for their tag in the event files, but got nothing so appears that ODA can't come to be unless you start when they already exist or possibly if they rebel. Though it might be that they still can come to be and I just failed in finding the relevant file. Or that it somehow is part of the expansion and hence not available for the next 27 minutes.

By the way their flag is this symbol on a blood red background.

I looked through the event files myself to know avail. Ah, we'll just have to wait.

(Looking through the NI file was like a dream come true - I'm absolutely overjoyed at it.)

Perhaps @DDRJake will want to tell us now that it's released---or he'll just end up coming in here and tease us...:p

Sorry for chipping in, but i guess they just have cores on Owari and are releasable by Shiba or whoever controls the province at start now
 
As far as I know from the old system, a certain Tag could spawn as rebel where that tag is scripted as owner in the province file, no matter whether that tag has core in 1444 or not. If this system still works, Oda could spawn in Owari because they are set in the history file.

Just checked. Oda core on Owari only appears in 1479, so I'm guessing it's by event, though I've yet to find the associated one.
