My Resource fix

[M@drox]

I have made quick fix for the resource issue due to infrastructure effect. Because the game does not recognize fractions in the province setup, I had 1 more unit of resource for any province with a unit of 1 to 3. Globally, the number of resources should be equal to design intent but not necessarily assigned to each county correctly.

Anyway, resources are still pretty scarce but most countries are running close max IC now. GER, JAP, ITA, SOV, USA have small levels of rares into 1940. England is the only that has some resources around 100k since they have all the resource rich puppets.

Good job , THX

Thanks

By 1942, I think there is way too much IC and resources in the world. Despite the AOD effect of concentrated IC and infrastructure, it seems the production efficiency has too much of an effect for everyone. I may post another with the resources the same but high concentrations of IC being reduced after my current Japan game. I would much rather have fewer divisions in the game than I currently have.

Hey any update on this? I like this fix a lot but it does seem like theres too much resources now.

Thanks still struggling whit the gaga mod it is late '43 and we are (ger) pushed back in Poland
So i think hope not in 44 germany is finished (after the invasion) than we can finaly play the core mod, read a lot about core, like the reality (and the fast fixes)

Good work Team

I have limited time during the week. I will try to post something much later today.

If you don't mind I will include it in my pack.

Cegorach you can use it but it still is not working well.

After digging through the post, I found formula efficiency posted by Lennartos:

 CORE's Actual IC = CORE's Desired IC * (CORE's Infrastructure*.0025+.75) * (1+CORE's Desired IC*.01)
CORE's Actual Resource = CORE's Desired Resource * (CORE's Infrastructure*.0025+.75)

Applying these formulas, I find these shortages from the design intent:
IC: -22.99 (excludes the any new minister and ideas effects for AOD)
Oil: -420.32
Metal: -1701.58
Energy: -3051.46
Rares: -832.19

If I double all current resource values (positive or negative), I still have a shortage but much closer.
Oil: -99.86
Metal: -192.58
Energy: -271.92
Rares: -124.38

So before I apply a non-linear method of getting global resources back to design intent, I would like to know if the AOD Ideas and Ministers are increasing the IC more than HOI2 CORE. Maybe CORE chose traits to make the overall result the same as before?

Tegetthoff could you provide an incite on any additional IC effect from the AOD Ideas and Ministers? Any rough estimate like 5% average boost would help me level global resources.

Thank you,

Here is an updated version that works rather well. I think that all countries can run their economy to maximum in the earlier years. In the later years, the resources are not too abundant. The axis countries are still short some resources which can be traded for.
