Thank you very much for this.

The Map Mod bug screwed me over once when i did follow instructions but still changed my checksum(mod).

 

[Mammoet]

Whoohoo!

I've been having a blast with the previous beta. A couple of the issues fixed in Jun21 patch were annoying me, so all in all looks good. I predict this will be the final patch!

Although maybe tone down the hordes just a little more? How about allowing them to disintegrate from nationalists easier?

 

[unmerged(277230)]

Thank you so much! So a few questions then!
How did you solve the country colony problem?
What vote was fixed, what was wrong?
What is the thing that formerly French countries can retract?
What did you do to A Formal Request?

Thank you so much again!

 

[BRK]

Moddir support! Excellent!

While the improvements are great, I am extremely disappointed that - to the best of my knowledge (it doesn't say so in the patch-notes), this patch DID NOT FIX the Japan-problem. Dayiomos are still unannexable and Japan is still unconquerable unless it unifies which the AI rarely does. I don't understand why this does not take priority to be honest, because you seem to be fixing very small issues by now.

Yay for progress!

The AI not building was a fairly major issue, but it is a bit of a shame that neither Japan nor the Hordes have been addressed at all, especially given the remarkably quick turnaround on a solution to the absurdity of the pulse in the May 10 patch.

Yaye! Will the old saves (17th) still work with this version?

 

[mkhuh]

This is great. Liberum Veto decision should really help against the horde.
Any chance horde nations are going to be tinkered with - like vassalization (or at least ability to cancel it) and getting them to to actually pay tribute?

Earlier, I was dreading today as a day of cleaning and boredom, now I am extremely happy that the map mod directory issue is supposedly fixed!

They should do, but no guarantees.

Thats the design.

 

[fenwayb]

Thats the design.

but it prevents the complete conquest of japan unless the ai decides to cooperate with you, and thus prevents wc attempts

 

[DrLulz]

Thats the design.

Well you did create an achievement for World Conquest, which is not possible under the current system.
If Japan doesn't unify you can't get - Three Mountains, Jihad or Ordinary World Conquest achievements. So it seems kind of wierd that it should be the design, perhaps and AI-only event that automatically unifies Japan at the historical date?

Anyway, thanks for the reply.

I thought the historical date was after the game ends (or if not, JUST before it ends)?

 

[unmerged(297342)]

The Japanese factions are hardly historical anyway.

If you can take land from Daimyos, I don't see why it should be WAD that you can't annex them.

I had no idea about that. Seems like that won't be a solution after all then.

yup, just checked, its 1862
