Emilio De Bono reminds me Santa Claus. But I don't think his presents will be warmly welcomed

 

[PhillipAlpha]

Is the whole being attacked by a capitulated country navy is now a thing of the past?

 

[RedPaladin50]

I was wondering if you could fix the bug where MacArthur is unable to be elected president in 1944. I think there is a error in the war event and peace event.

I must say, Emilio De Bono has some very impressive facial hair.

Emilio De Bono reminds me Santa Claus. But I don't think his presents will be warmly welcomed

Slightly less joyous a figure, I fear.

Perhaps I'm simply blind, but all I could find was:

Now, I assume flags are done as follows:
DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER_communism.tga
DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER_democratic.tga
DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER_fascism.tga
(though the latter two don't make sense)
and localisation like this:

l_english:
 DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER_communism:0 "Danish Union of Danish Workerpeople's Danish Republic of Denmark and Not-Sweden"
 DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER_democratic:0 "Danish Democratic People's Republic of Denmark and Not-Sweden"
 DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER_fascism:0 "Danish National People's Republic of Denmark and Not-Sweden"

But how do you do the leaders then? Should you simply script it inside that DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER bit, or use an event to replace them manually (with a uses_cosmetic_tag trigger, or manually inside the same event/focus/whatever you use to trigger the cosmetic tag itself?

Cosmetic tags can declare a name list the same as regular tags. The same with portraits. For colonial country leaders they are set in the history file and there is an on_action for puppets breaking free, which retires the colonial governor.

it does reflect on my age. I heard the quote in her little girl voice.

Admit it, you remember seeing the premier of Bright Eyes at the local cinema when she sang "On The Good Ship Lollipop"

Dude remove that quickly. Trust me, the admins will get cross.

@Sleight of Hand

I'm not totaly sure that image is in line with forum rules.

 

[Sleight of Hand]

I've already removed it. I wasn't aware it was an issue.

Well I could be wrong but it looked like a guy who was tied to a chair and then shot. Seems like a war crime to me.

Of course I could be missing something so feel free to educate me!

PM me the image and I'll give you a definitive yeah or nay

We are also adding a few extra generals to Italy and France who were a bit lacking (as part of free patch). People who follow my twitter might have seen them already, but for everyone else:
View attachment 224085

Italian uniforms are wrong. Collar tabs are not red.

 

[Daser von Wulf]

yeah more generals

 

[goobermaster]

- Carriers can no longer reinforce with fresh planes while in combat

THANK YOU BASED JESUS!

 

[rstefek]

- Tons of AI front balancing work. AI randomly abandoning fronts should no longer happen, among many other things

Great, this happened to me all the time!

 

[Stups]

"A Land Battle Log giving you history and statistics of combats for a theater (basic history list included in patch)"

a paid feature? are you serious? this should have been included on release.

 

[Had a dad]

THANK YOU BASED JESUS!

Based?

 

[Te. Kenzo]

So now Port Arthur is directly owned by jap again?

 

[Xuanzue]

wow, the spearhead, the fix/workaround against the broken battleplan that after 1 province taken mess everything, still requires money.

• Start a thread regarding Southern Rhodesia?

Disappointed you didn't add Rhodesia as a dominion, though. Makes a lot of sense and would be an ideal first target for those uppity South Africans.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1937_Imperial_Conference

What other than a bit of manpower did Rhodesia add to the War effort? They had no production.

Yes, there's a bit of tweaking to be done with Rhodesia and Southern Rhodesia.

My suggestion would be to move the tungsten deposits. Currently, HoI4 has tungsten located in Rhodesia and not in Southern Rhodesia. To be historically accurate, the Rhodesian tungsten mines should be located in Southern Rhodesia.
