USA Military Construction Focus Fix in 1.12.0 patch not working as intended
What platform do you play on?
Steam
Game Version
1.12.2
Enabled DLC
Do you have mods enabled?
No
Description
In Man The Guns the US focus Military Construction rewarded the player with an additional 3 levels of infrastructure from 70% to 100% for three states. These states are Texas, Louisiana and California. If the user or AI had increased the level of infrastructure in any of these three states above 70% then an alternative state with a minimum of 70% infrastructure would be picked from a set of defined regions. If no eligible candidate state exists then no reward is given.
When No Step Back redefined the infrastructure levels from 10 to 5, the script for this focus was broken, with only 40% states eligible as they has 3 levels of infrastructure to fill. The USACE Projects focus suffers from this same issue.
In By Blood Alone, the patch notes state:
- Fixed an issue where the US would not gain the full benefit of the Military Construction focus under some circumstances
This suggested that these rewards have been fixed, but they now offer improvement to 6 states rather than 3.
This may or may not be by design, but I think it is a bug in the script implementation rather than a conscious decision to boost the USA based on the comment in the script -
#doing this in sequence so that one single state having open infra slots doesn't cascade through everything. There is probably a smarter way of doing this but it is late and my brain no worky
The USACE Projects focus still suffer from the infrastructure level change.
A lot of the script is an attempt to prevent duplicate states being picked, however this is not working as intended and it is still possible to get multiple rewards for the same state. This is quite a ubquitious approach and impacts other focus trees including the USSR for example
Steps to Reproduce
Start a game as the USA, hover of the reward for the Military Construction and USACE Project focuses, the former will have 6 rewards rather then 3 and the later will not have any rewards due to the previous issue with the script not having been fixed.
Use the console to for Instant construction and then add infra levels to the targets, watch the re-evaluated target states and observe the duplication. Bring all states up to 80% infrastructure except Michigan. All rewards will now be for Michigan proving that the check is the state flag USA_military_construction_2Inf is being ignored.
