1.7.3 - Hotfix Released - Checksum 7d7e

[Lodewijk]

I really like the new Dutch Republic Statist/Orangist slider, though i'd suggest calling the ruler ''Raadpensionaris'' (lit. Council Pensionary/Grand Pensionary) when the Statist have some power. This because at the times when the States-General were in control the office of Stadtholder was vacant in Holland (the most important province) and the Netherlands were led by the Raadspensionaris of Holland instead (eg van Oldenbarnevelt)

Are protectorates still coalition-proof?

Yes.

Glad this was important enough to fix it twice!

You do not understand. They increased precision in fabricate claim discovery, which should be better, but because they were not happy with current precision in fabricate claim discovery, which wasn't good enough they again increased precision in fabricate claim discovery which is now better.

Simple

Nice, more bugs squashed! Now we can get focused properly.

There's an error with the Poland elective monarchy still.
You can't ever get a dynasty going because the heir system just doesn't work. Your "heir" is set to whoever has the most votes so your monarch never has a child or anything who can become king. In the events where an heir is ill or whatever it affects the foreign/Polish nobleman heir, too, which makes no sense, especially in the ones where it says your heir did something to make your dynasty ashamed.
Please fix the elective monarchy further so we can actually get a local dynasty that makes sense and can flourish.

Wouldn't that be a normal feudal monarchy?

Was the AI NOT BUILDING ARMIES appearing in 1.7 fixed?

http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?789806-1.7-AI-not-building-Armies

Same question. Did AI not building anything if Steam client is not running get fixed?

+1. What is the status on this one? Part of a larger overhaul / major patch?

 

[LumberKing]

This is going to be an annoying as question, but I need to know since I haven't played EU4 in such a while: will a pre-WoN Ironman game work on this patch without cocking up achievements?

It will work, but any achievments added after the moment you started the ironman run (pre-WON) probably will not be achievable.

That's a shame, cause I would quite like to finish that off before starting anything else.

No? What I'm saying is that if I elect a king and he has a child, that child should be able to be elected. But since the heir slot is taken by whoever has the most votes, they're never replaced and it's impossible for your king to produce an heir who can become king in turn. Events affecting heirs affect the person with the most votes, too, in nonsensical ways, such as what I gave as examples.

 

[Terrill]

My game did not automatically update to 1.7.3, even after I restarted steam twice.

Any help?

yeah, it's really funny when you get the choice of paying to heal the heir or just praying...

why spend $$ on a foreign heir?

 

[lucaluca]

I still get Japan united by 1500, is this how it's supposed to be?

Works for everyone else, so has to be a problem in Steam or with your computer. Post in Tech Support if you need more help please.

 

[Intangible]

This patch has had no impact on my run, save for a few minutes of breathless panic, so let's not bash Paradox over that. Much of what has changed in this patch is great, especially fixing Japan.

I was wondering what you were going to say! I'm about 15 Youtube sessions behind on your run.

 

[ThePlayX3]

I have checksum (a536) and no mods are enabled I don't understand.

 

[zedyue]

So the lack of steam AI recruitment bug isn't fixed yet?

 

[DasBananenbrot]

Too bad Steam auto-updated and I can't revert back to 1.7 . I play with the MEIOU and Taxes Mod and sicne the 1.7.3 Hotfix my game crashes. Well, guess I have to wait for the mod team to fix it though reverting pre 1.7.3 would be have been awesome (and I don't want revert as far back as 1.6.2)

 

[Homusubi]

Colonies no longer affect religious unity.

Anti-DDRJake patch confirmed.

Domo arigato for releasing the Japan fix quickly.
