Messages you want

[RedRalphWiggum]

I'd like messages to notify me of the following things

A change in the form of state of any country
The creation/dissolution of any political party
The first instance of a factory which makes new goods being built (i.e. first aeroplane factory)
Countries joining/leaving a sphere of influence


Any more ideas?

I lack understanding of all the game features and mechanisms, but I support these suggestions of yours, especially the change of government/form of state of other countries, as well as the parties

When a nation starts producing goods (i.e: starts selling machine parts)?

It would certainly help in determining what factories other countries have built.

 

[MAHak]

A warning when the annoying AI starts besieging one of your provinces. In Vicky 1 it will only tell when they have occupied it. REALLY annoying when you're playing GB or another far-stretched country.

And a warning when one of your factories start turning out a negative profit.

Like the machine parts factory does in the middle of the game, when its only used to build RR and other factories. Later as machine parts requiring goods are introduced it usually turns into a profit again.

And a warning when one of your factories start turning out a negative profit.

Agreed. This would improve the learning curve. When I started playing Vicky it took me a week and a half to realize that the reason I couldn't turn a profit was that my fabric and artillery factories were incinerating cash for fuel.

will victoria II have that little drop down statistics with your armies and which provinces are under siege?
When a nation declares indepence though violent revolt could the message informing you give you the option to enter the war in support of it?

I think the messages from Victoria were mostly fine but with more options on whether you want to hear from the Whole World of just the Great Powers or those in the same sphere of influence as you or neigbours and vassals rather than having to hear from everything on this point you could just hear of those happening in those places you give two figs about. Only better worded so understandable.
