Has the new ( "new" ?) conversion exploit been reported yet?

[billcorr]

I could not find any bug reports regarding the (new?) conversion exploit.

According to one of the HoI4 discord channels, players can make many (16384 was quoted)

• Tank destroyers
• Airplanes
• Any equipment that has that green spiral conversion symbol.
  
  
  
  I admit, it might be unverified scuttlebutt...but it has led one Discord gaming group to vote to mod conversions out of the game.

This sounds like it's on the scale of broken close to the older free equipment exploit, from renaming a template you made into one of the ones that get auto-spawned in events like civil wars.

 

[Secret Master]

It makes me a bit sad to have yet another conversion exploit.

But then I perked right up:

And how do you do such wizardry (quickly now I need to get Siberian Tiger).

I suppose it would not be good for me to pass on the secrets of such black magic. But hey, if a host of multiplayer games publicly post links to HoI4 cheat engines on their Discord general chat right before an MP game*, I guess I can pass on my limited knowledge about summoning 16000 Stugs.

Something about repeatedly pressing the green, spiral, conversion button...perhaps 5 or 6 times in rapid succession.

The HoI4 discord chat went on for about 4 pages describing this mischief.



*Right. This happened in a MP game this past week. , "Offense: Gross lack of judgment."

So it's like the naval exploit a few months back?
EDIT: so far no good, however, I am playing very heavily modded so will check in ironman

But then I perked right up:

I don't think they know about second conversion exploit, SM.

(Secret Master: What about He-One-Elevensies? Producing food for luncheons? Afternoon T-34s? Zimmermit? Supper-heavy infantry? Arheo knows about them, doesn't he?
Anaraxes: I wouldn't count on it, SM.)

I mean, we haven't seen all the DDs for the next DLC, so maybe we'll get Supper-heavy infantry.

(Supper heavy infantry is now the name of my WW2 cosplay group until we lose some weight.)
