HOI4 Waking the Tiger and 1.5 Cornflakes Patchlog

[Alliegorical]

Can aircraft still be assigned to zones? I prefer to create umbrellas of fighters over territory and forget about em. (Though assigning air support to certain units is cool.)

Yes you can. The new system seems to just be an option where the air wings will switch zones and relocate between airbases in order to optimally cover troops. I've seen plenty of streamers in WtT who choose to micro their air forces just like before, and it's as good as ever.

Here's to hoping some naval revamps are next post-WTT.

NICE! Not sure I understand this one - "support arty now 10% less penalty compared to regular." Does that mean it only has 10% less Stats?

 

[Redswingarcus]

Nice and not nice,

I expected it airborne supply is a paid dlc but it is not right it it is sold as add on. They should have a big disclaimer for Hoi IV that airborne supplies was sold separately or later as dlc.add on.
The range is less then Hoi III , goes not up with better planes and now it is also a paid option. Yes people shall shay it is only 9 euro but that could be a big of your montly savings.

I agreed not all is for free. Big normal expecting game mechanisc from previous version are not allowed to be paid dlc.

Or maybe a nicer more service was a dlc for mechanisch repearing airborne 2.99 and the cosmetic for 6.99 people walking tiger with all the intressting unit stuff or technology if you would like to play in the east.
For me a bit sour taste of money grapping Paradox Hoi is now a days

- Unsupported (incompatible) mods now are auto disabled during game startup when:
- It's first time a new game version being launched
- The game crashed in the last session.

I wonder, will this auto-disableing feature be active when the game is launched in the debug mode? Having to put a tick after every crash would be troublesome.

I don't see any mention of bug fixes for Paratroopers/Paradrops in the patch notes.

I'm constantly having issues with Paradrops. Even though I have no exclamation points complaining, have full air superiority in every relevant zone, and have transport planes on mission in the destination zone starting from the origin point, my Paratroopers sometimes just refuse to paradrop. Is there no progress on fixing this in the upcoming patch?!?!

*edit* Since people seem to think it's just user error, please tell me what I'm doing wrong: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/please-tell-me-why-i-cant-paradrop.1076648/

The Austro-fascist Vaterländische Front is represented in-game as non-Aligned to contrast with the Austrian Nazi Party which is fascist in-game. Now I think the VF should be fascist because a.) the ideology for a party that wants to annex its own country doesn't really matter, and b.) Italy is far more likely to puppet Austria than Germany, but that's its whole own problem.

You will probably need to wait till there's a DLC for Austria, just like how they portrayed Hungary in the base game for being fascist and in DoD they added the whole monarchy vs. Republic thing and made Horthy neutral. They will flesh out the ideologies and political systems for Austria aswell!

On the list of nations that ought to have a focus tree, Austria very far from the top. If it never gets one, I won't mind.

Oh nonononononononononono....

You know that the

Female = yes

is just an effect that the modders can use to make certain countries have female generals? It is under the modding section and so it's just a modding tool!

(so much mining to be done).

I don't think it's considered mining when all you need to have to look at the game files is a text editor...

They will, one day... They still have a lot of years ahead of them, CKII also lasted 5 years (and counting!) and in 5 years time I think the HOI team could add focus trees and mechanics for almost all nations! And don't forget that focus trees are a big part of the game so they will probably add them to most countries, they've also stated multiple times that they wanted every country to be fleshed out with tech, leaders and focuses.

Made sure checks for if a country is AI controlled respects human_ai so AI does not alter behavior when observed.

Suprised no one has commented on this yet. Does this mean that the long term issue of observer mode not being reliable is finally fixed?

 

[hansnery]

- Took into account recently-revealed CIA data regarding certain high-profile country leaders featured in the game.

Can someone elaborate on this?
Great work by the way!

As one of our First Lieutenants in the army used to say, the fault is in the user, not the equipment.

In other words, pretty sure you're doing something wrong. Never had or seen any bugs with paradrops not launching. It's always just people doing something wrong.

Make sure your paratroopers are in the same province with the airfield containing the transport planes, and make sure said airfield is not overstacked and has supply.

Are they adding female general portraits or will it just be an army of Lahkshmi Sahgal clones?

 

[adil3tr]

non major countries now at least builds half amount of units required to build

What does this mean?

 

[Bratyn]

What do you mean with "possible"? Is there a chance Vichy becomes non-aligned, does it always become non-aligned or is it a decision of Germany to make them non-aligned?

If Germany is unaligned, the event that creates Vichy France will now create an unaligned Vichy France instead.

- Fixed typos and other text errors.
- Fixed even more typos and text errors.
- Fixed more typos than we are willing to admit. (wait you just did! /Podcat)

That means you fixed the Japanese 'Shensha' Division?

And how the actual divisions were called?
From screenshots on the steam store we can see that they are called in the 'western style', number, branch, size (i.e. 1st Infantry-Division, 1. Panzer-Division etc.), when they shouldn't, they should be called like that:
branch*, prefix 'Dai' & number, size.
e.g. Dai-Roku Shidan (6th Division), Sensha Dai-Ichi Shidan (Tank/Armored 1st Division)

* I'm pretty sure that infantry Divisions did not have branch in their name, i.e. you only have Dai-Roku Division, not Hohei Dai-Roku division.

Idk, maybe they have already added generic portraits for the female generals

 

[BlueAndGrey]

Is the pact of Rome fixed? So Italy and Austria don't leave if they are not the same ideology as Hungary
