HOI4 Cornflakes 1.5.2 BETA patch [checksum: f49b]

[Louella]

Why?

because the Soviet Union can (and historically did) have female aces, and normally AI SOV will take the focus that allows it, and it is a feature that has never worked since launch.
Sorting it, would also allow more modern-day set mods to work properly.

what happened in 1.3? why did it stop working then?

what happened in 1.3? why did it stop working then?

I don't know why ace death/kill notifications stopped working then. But now they no longer work, which is important since now you're supposed to lose war support if your aces get shot down (you gain war support when aces are generated), so it's having a greater effect on the game.

Like, if you look at the ace events, you lose war support when one of your aces is shot down. But, because that news event doesn't pop up, you never lose war support caused by your aces being shot down. So you only ever gain war support because the news popup for ace generation still works.

1.3 or so, was when ace death notifications still worked, because I was able to show that female aces created by event (i.e. Amelia Earhart) are correctly referenced in the news articles for shooting down enemy aces and so on. Wish I'd taken a screenshot of that happening.

So something broke in 1.4 or so, regarding the ace combat& death events.

okay i didn't know that, i agree this is important, not only because it's a bug but because of the war support changes

@podcat is this fixable in 1.5.2?

 

[Leluchu]

Sorry, but what is happening with peace conferences right now? They are completely broken - some war participants do not get the conference, just a popup that somebody else took everything.

This is absolutely true... On my war with USSR with Poland, (in which I did contribute the most, far beyond Japan), I was not invited, and Japan did annex everything...

Whoa, random combat sounds playing is worse than ever, on top of that weird clonk noise that keep slapping your ears. "Clonk"... *weird reverbed gunfire sound*.. endlessly.

- Last 3 radar techs now increase aim of static AA guns by 20% each.
- Each intermediary AA tech now adds 8% damage reduction from enemy bombers.
- Each AA equipment unlock now increases static AA damage output by 10%.

These changes are cool and I like them. Any chance of adding similar links for RADAR and AA unlocks improving naval AA?

How does this happen? It still looks fine to me after adding lots of traits to a general.

edit: ah it is when you are defensive side of combat.

will fix, thanks!

 

[Noraboen]

Happens occasionally in combats. Can't reliably reproduce it, but it seems like all traits from both leading generals get bunched up and pushed to the side like that.

I'd be willing to bet that if the screenshot were bigger, the other general would show zero traits.

although I see it for the first time and then it disappeared and until it repeats itself

For the first time, what is the message about the ceasefire in Spain during the civil war. All stood up and stand and only my volunteers attack)
in a couple of days or weeks everyone went on the attack again

tested the experience of generals in the battle not commanding the battle .. they began to gain experience too
Hooray

by the way
has long noticed that the aircraft carrier aircraft have 1 defense more than their older brother. all 2e3 (except stormtroopers for some reason)

when you give the order of the army to take the line in the distance
part goes on the road and a part of the walk .. When the army is very big you are very tired of sending every division manually.
Do you ever send a whole army on the train by double-clicking the icon or else how)

and the division's ammunition button to remove / put all
=)

 

[Redgards]

yet I'm very upsetting the reset of the Lend-Lease statistics when you change it.
you can not see how many sent and enjoy the figure

By the way, historically Lend-Lease was a "volunteer" equipment.
and at the end of the war, all that was not lost should have been returned or redeemed

1. start preparing the revolution
2. start a debate
3. hold a referendum

at least kill me do not understand why spend pp when in half a year with the focus of increasing the party all will lead to a referendum, in extreme cases there are raids that also add 2% of stability add

Now there is a lot of capture renamings. I like it. Can i ask maybe also Sevastopol could be renamed to what's stated in the News event in case Germany captures it (IIRC Theodorshaven or something like it)? It is strange that the news tell it will be renamed but it is actually not.

Also there is a small bug from 1.4 in Romania's focus Invite German Advisors. It grants Romania Access to Germany instead of the other way around. It is easy to fix.

Thanks for the great progress with the game.

So, I have some issues with Vojvodina. I didn't think it was ideal before, but now I think it's in some sense worse. I understand that there is a desire to give a hypothetical Austria-Hungary neat borders, but that isn't mutually exclusive with other things. To begin with, since launch, Srijem/Szerem is not a part of Croatia. Geographically (I am not talking politically here) this makes no sense since it is the area between Drava and Sava areas, which has since the era of Military Frontier belonged territorially to Croatia. It makes even less sense since in the timeline of the game, the Independent State of Croatia had this area as well, yet the game cannot accomodate that. So now, Hungary problematically has a province which geographically and historically makes no sense when it takes Vojvodina. In addition, Can't we have Western and Eastern Vojvodina? That way, Hungary could either get half of Vojvodina like it had during the war or could take both halves to attain its pre-Trianon borders. Now, I know some will say this is completely minor and irrelevant in the big picture and I would agree, but since we are already in the business of changing region borders and since Vojvodina is being changed as we speak, can't we find a solution which can accomodate Austria-Hungary, Greater Hungary, Independent State of Croatia and the German occupied Serbia? I find the current situation even less satisfying (since it only satisfies the Austria-Hungary itch really) than the release version.

In addition, one thing that bothers me is the fact that even when Romania returns Transylvania, often Hungary will declare war. I have ended playthroughs because of this. This can only be explained by scripting problems. This is also compounded by the fact that Romania now often annexes Bulgaria and Independent State of Croatia doesn't trigger on historical focus playthroughs. I don't expect the game to follow 100% history, but it appears to be the case that certain scripts take the whole events off-course.

Just one more thing is that "Reclaim the Empire" focus for A-H doesn't give claim on Voivodeship Silesia which is probably an oversight.

The 1.5.x patch cycle just gets better and better! So many great changes here!

 

[puppet on a string]

are you ever going to add cores for kazakhstan? it has been in the game for months now, but can't be released

Getting a crash every time Japan uses their decision to offer peace to China while playing PRC.

I ironman and cloud save all my games so I am unsure how to upload.

This is my third attempt with the same results.
