I don't know if this is going to be addressed in the 1.14 (that whole thing about switching/keeping the NI upon nation formation), but I've just realized that there's currently some negligence about it (bear with me).

Currently, when you form a nation that change NIs, you get a tooltip that says that you'll get new NIs and traditions. However, it never tells you WHAT ideas you're getting (the individual ones). These ideas are static (not randomized), and they're easily accessable from the wiki or the game files, but you never see this info in game. I think it's a bad game design to "hide" this information from the player. Hell, I've played the EU4 over 1000 hours but I won't be able to tell you all of the Italian/Mughal/any other nation's ideas from memory, so if I were to plan the campaign in those regions, I'd have to check the wiki.

So I'd like to be able to compare the national ideas in game. I assume that the idea change process in 1.14 happens via the event, so I want you to consider making it more informative, if it won't take you too long (I hope it won't).

Honestly, this is a very good point. I'd kinda like to see a screen with a net change comparison.
