Closing DDRJake's "exploits" again I see...

- Loot & Income from Peace is no longer considered as monthly income for income calculations.

Finally! This bothered since 1.0. Hope it works both ways though...

Closing DDRJake's "exploits" again I see...

I see only 1, the one with the colony. Income bug has been known since forever and i see nothing about 100% WS peacedeal offers, which also has been known since 1.0 but never got fixed.

 

[Dr. Njitram]

This is just plain evil.
At least let DDRJake complete his run.

 

[LordNeidhart]

Yay for fixed and more easy to read national focus!

 

[MrGarfield]

- Truce now scales per month, not just per year.

Can you explain what this means exactly?

Hotfix Patch 1.7.DDR

Can you explain what this means exactly?

That a 52% warscore peace deal will now be 10 years and a certain number of months rather than just rounding up or down to the closest year.

 

[HansBaer]

Can you explain what this means exactly?

What it says, the steps got smaller. Now they are 12x more accurate.

 

[AKronblad]

Question: did any added modding functionalities manage to get into this hotfix?

Captain Gars has for example presented this in his Captain's Log thread in User Modifications sub-forum :

Update:
- Variables can now be used in localisation
- Unit types can now have a scripted trigger
- Added effect switch_tag (*)
- Trigger controlled_by and sieged_by now accept rebel types as arguments

(*) I need to clear this one with the EU4 team, since its a potential risk

Could someone from Paradox please comment on this? THANKS!

Hotfix Patch 1.7.DDR

They should hire this man...

 

[unillogical]

They should hire this man...

Or get the whole office to subscribe to his twitch when the button goes live.

- Increased precision in fabricate claim discovery, should now be better.

Does this mean that you will be discovered less frequently? I sense a change since 1.7 already to the better.

Good point, or does it mean the tooltip is now more accurate?

 

[Pokerfaces]

Seems a bit spiteful on DDRJake but i'll take any patches that fix some of the more broken features.

 

[Litenent]

Thank you , keep the hard work, this is a great game and I love it so much! .

 

[theosZA]

- You will no longer annex Japan when you try to annex a vassal to Japan

I hope this also fixes the general case where annexing a vassal but not at war with their overlord will annex the overlord.

 

[oblio-]

Good point, or does it mean the tooltip is now more accurate?

It's so accurate now that they had to mention it twice in the changelog.

Paradox, please proofread your announcements. It's not hard, just ask someone else in the office to read them before publishing.

Otherwise you risk this.

 

[Rozmarzony]

Legitimacy is now set to 90 if a foreign ruler goes on the throne of an Elective Monarchy.

Take that haters! <3
