Modders: What would you like to see NOT hardcoded?

I think it would be good to be able expand the economic system by defining new resources (perhaps each province could produce, say, up to 4 different resources) and the IC system be modified into new 'types' of IC to represent the respective industries.

Paradox don't seem keen on creating a Vicky 2, so if they provided such moddable features with respect to the economy in this latest incarnation of HoI, then I dare say that a Vicky-style mod would cater to the wishes of many calling for a Vicky 2 on the forums.

Aye, economy and war are tied so closely together this would really make sense, too. Besides that economy is fun. Running countries in general is fun.

Aye - thats the most wanted part of moddability to me. I dont belive that it will be possible with HoI3 though but I really dream about it

Thread updated

Could you also include less elaborate version of your thoughts that I could put into first post, for devs reference? It takes me a while to do it, and I don't want to miss any important thing you would like to include...

Nice job digging up this thread from last October, btw.

Sorry for mods, my fault. I haven't removed it from the sig. Some time ago I asked Darth Tracid wheather I should resurrect it, and got an answer that I should create a new one...

Since it's already resurrected, I hope it's ok to let it live. If not, feel free to close it, and again, sorry for the inconveniance.

Biggest want to have for me in terms of modding would be to finally be able to turn one country into another again, which didn't work in HoI2 anymore.

Or at least make it possible to chenge a country's name and flag by event or something.

I'd really like to be able to turn Chinese Communists into People's Republic of Chine and Be able to make germany change its flag if the assassination on Hitler succeeds, and maybe update the US flag with more stars lateron and maybe change a flag/name when a country becomes Stalinist by event.

A lot of MODs had wished for that in HoI2 to make certain historical events and changes in countries possible.

So please put SOME possibility in to do that this time. if it won't make it into the release anymore, then maybe in an Addon =) It'll take time for modders to start large scale projects again anyway. But please add something like that sometime. if that can be added, then nearly everything can be created. This was pretty much the biggest limitation in Hoi2 =)

I'd like this just for Hearts of Iron's sake
