I had this happen to me after loading a save. I didn't even know a partition event existed until I saw it.

Hello! I cannot seem to reproduce the issue... Do you have a save before the event have fired?

I had this happen to me after loading a save. I didn't even know a partition event existed until I saw it.

Do you have a screenshot of that? Did it really say "partitioned"? I can't find any event in the game files that would say anything like that

 

[OHgamer]

not running any mods at all with this.

Actually do have a save from just before the event. Attached.

ETA...with this save, first thing i did was cancel my lend-lease as Germany to the Nationalists (they were losing, not worth keeping up the transfer of material) they sue for peace a couple days later.

This Bug is annoying. I'm playing as italy and after getting the fake news the national focus for supporting franco spain can't be completed because it will aborded after every end of the day.
Please fix this before 1.6.

Attached a save 2 days before the news pops up

I've been experiencing this bug too, with 1.5.2 (f49b). As soon as you reload a save, even if just a day or two after the SCW starts, the SCW partition / inconclusive event will fire (event id: news.162).

Looking into the NewsEvents file, it seems there must be something wrong with the trigger. Perhaps "SPR = { has_civil_war = no }" is not being processed correctly?

My workaround is to delete the section of the event that reads:

immediate = {
set_global_flag = scw_over
}

I'm hoping this will avoid problems such as with the Italy national focus, etc. Although I'm a bit worried that if "has_civil_war = no" is broken, that might also affect events elsewhere, such as the Japan -v- China events. But seems like the best we can do while awaiting a hotfix.

Attaching my savegame as Germany, two days after the SCW fired in mid-to-late 1937. The moment one loads the savegame the SCW partition event fires.

happened to me as well, right after I loaded a save game. Got the news flash, but civil war continued.

edit:

It's already been mentioned and logged here;

I have seen this too in quite a few games.

 

[Strompeta]

Ive seen this bug many times in 1.5.2

Only after loading a saved game

Same here.

From my experience even when this event pops up the Spanish forces on both sides keep fighting.

I think the problem is that it sets the scw_over flag to “yes” which is what’s causing the reported issues with focus trees, etc.

The other problem is that it’s not clear why the event is firing in the first place, not that I’m an expert on the event code or anything, but there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with the trigger that I can see.
