1.4.1 Ai reluctant to change conscription laws

[Meglok]

Has anyone else noticed the ai is either reluctant or refusing to change conscription laws?

Here is a screen shot example of ai Canada with 302 PP in the bank, zero manpower, and still sitting in volunteer. This is just an example, I noticed many other nations including majors buying generals at xero while at volunteer or limited.

@SteelVolt I wonder if an attempt to reduce the earlier tendency to head straight to scrapping the barrel nudged the ai too far the other way?

And here I thought Mackenzie King was our PM during WW2!

Anyway, yes, this seems a bit troubling!

I had the same with the Soviet Union. I decimated them to zero manpower because they were still using volunteer only.

Here is Hungary sitting at Disarmed with Yugoslavia pushing on it's border and Germany justifying on the Soviet Union. Yet they have spent 450 PP on military staff.

A week later after they reached 150 PP Hungary bought another general instead of getting out of disarmed nation, despite only having 47k in manpower.

I do believe there is something wrong here. Time to file another bug report.

Yeah from 1.0 through 1.4.0 it was too eager to change them. It might be at scraping the barrel and have tens of millions of men sitting in the pool and have its production and training suffer for it. There were cases where it did that while still sitting at peacetime economy. In 1.4.1 they have tried to tweak its preferences not to do that, but it appears they may have gone a bit too far.

They clearly are adjusting the right things. Now it is merely a matter of finding the right middle ground.

Ive noticed this as well. In my play through as Germany, its almost 1943 now and Hungary still has disarmed nation with zero manpower and it doesnt look like they have made a division the whole game. Same with Italy, they are still at Limited conscription with zero manpower.

super need savegame to help fix that quickly @Meglok Also if you load the save in 1.4 do they pick the law right away?
