Bug when I have overextension

[Rosdevall]

I’m playing like Mughals and so far it hadn’t happened to me. I am in the year 1700 trying a WC, and every time my overextension exceeds 100 the game gets hung up and I have to shut down the computer manually.
It happens when I go to the rebel management screen and try to manage them.
Does it happen to anyone else? any possible solution?

Not a tech support issue so moved to main forum. If the community agrees it's likely to be a bug, post in Bug Reports please.

Can you attach a save game which shows the problem? Then others can try if it also hangs for them. If it does, it is probably a bug in the game and if it doesn't, it might be an issue on your system which can be fixed in some way

attached saved game.

I tried your save and I was able to load it and view the stability tab without problems(this is the screen which you were talking about, right?):

I even tried to play a little and won a war in which I conquered the Mamluks, Hausa and most of Morocco which increased the overextension to over 170% and it was still usable. I had some slowdowns, but I don't know if they were from the game or because my computer was acting up(I have some powermangement problems which cause the CPU to switch to its lowest speed).

One thing which you could try would be to change the display mode to borderless fullscreen in the launcher like in the following screenshot:

This could at least prevent eu4 from locking up your whole computer and it might allow you to see an error message.
You could also check if there is a new folder in "Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/crashes". If there is, you could attach the exception.txt here which might offer some clues.

Or you can try to verify the integrity of game files and if that doesn't help, you can try a clean reinstall as described in my guide on reddit about common startup problems with version 1.29

I will do the same if it happens to me!

Thank you so much for your help, this afternoon I will look to see if my bug is fixed!
