Cant colonize Azores after using converter..... Bug?

[RX2000]

So I ran my CK2 save through the exporter & started up EUIV as the Spanish Empire. A few years into the game I got the QFTNW & went exploring. Of course I found the Azores & that other little island right above the Canaries right away (Madeira?)

Problem is, both of them say "This land is too inhospitable to be colonized." Whats up with that? I thought the Azores was always colonizable? Its within range, so thats not the problem.

I did a search & found a thread from back in the day about EU3 where they had the same problem & it was because some mod or something had set the base tax of the uncolonizable provinces to 0. I checked & sure enough, both the Azores & the other island have base tax rate of 0.

Is this a bug, & the converter screwed their base tax rate up, or is this somehow WAD? I dont see what the purpose of not letting me colonize the Azores would be.....

Bump

No one else has noticed this yet? Anyone know if I can mod something easily to change the base tax value at least to a 1 to see if that will fix it?

Shouldn't this be posted to the bugs sub-forum?

Yea if it is in fact a bug. Do you think it is?

Im having this problem too. I assume its a bug.

Yep I reported it in the bugs forum:

Looks like we can mod the save file to fix it.

This is indeed a bug. Has been fixed.

It was treated as a zero-tax base province when converted from CK2, which made it impossible to colonize.

So a work-around might be to change the mod to increase Azore's tax base to something like 2? Or would that not solve the problem once it's already converted.
