Developer question;

I have written syntax grammars (antlr xtext style) for the .gfx, .gui and .fx files. This grammar is used for code completion, validation and code coloring in the developer IDE Eclipse.

Q1. Does paradox have a developer IDE for your graphics files? If you do not have that, would providing a developer IDE for graphics files of value and worth while?
Q2. If it is worth while, what other code completion features would be appreciated (like validation of graphic file paths, dimension vs file size - if possible)?

XD sorry I misread and thought it said XIX, I'll edit.
Damn roman numbers.
avoid all confusion and use hex as you will never mixup 13 with 15 for the difference in centuries. Then let out a Maniacal Laugh when someone tries to tell you that their were no airplane in the 15th century cause they THINK it's a base 10 number

If you are missing the HOI4 dev diaries during the summer, while all the teams get a well deserved rest, I am here to help.

Zoob's Official Hearts of Iron 4 diary.

Hello and welcome to this weeks diary, today we will be talking about a feature that will be complained about it in the comments for weeks, even though it is all subject to change. A screenshot will be provided that will allow you all to complain about the following:

Cartoon Call of Duty 3D Models.

No Nato Counters.

Game being designed for children and people who have never heard of WW2, tablet owners, and people who don't understand the abstract concept of a game, or fun.

Not difficult enough, game needs to be made unnecesarily difficult, for hipster purposes.

Neon Colours.

The hard attack value for Panzer IV is all wrong, it should be 1.5 not 1.6, as the upgunned something fired magic candy at the allies.

Your country is poorly represented.

Lack of railroading.

Lack of freedom.

Your SS division doesn't have a Zeal meter showing how fuhrious they are in combat.

See you all next week for another dev diary.

Thank you.
But what about the (un)motivated map changes?

There will be nothing left for future diaries if I put everything in this one!

But just as a teaser, the map will be changed so that you personally hate it, in every way.

CK2 Question:

What causes lag and performance hits when you have a large Empire being run in North Korea mode?

I read earlier that a large Byzantine Empire had tons of lag from the AI trying to evaluate everyone else for castration, but what is lagging me if I own 200 provinces and have no vassals?
