NA - Initial feedback

They named it europa unaversalis 3 because it takes place during the same time period, you silly goose.

Please don't insult other people.

When I played from 1453 - 1492 as Mutapa, I saw the new world. Still very early colonization, but I only saw France, Castille, and England colonize.

However when I started a 1789 game as France, I saw Sweden colonize northern Mozambique.

I did a few tweaks to the colonial AI..
basically, they wont become coloniser if their ports are on the baltic and mediterranean seas, unless their yearly income is over 5 times the cost of a colonist. Basically, a united italy or a strong sweden or prussia would perhaps consider it..

So is this already in NA?

yes

when I check my national ideas - the icons are all screwed up and stretched out too much (wrong scaling ?). Do others have similar problems ?

You need to delete some cache folder, although I don't recall exactly which I think it's in the map folder. The tech support forum should be able to tell you.

You can only close a cot if it is your core, so no closing enemy cots.

I guess it sucks a bit, but what can you do.

If you own provinces near it you could make your own CoT to steal its trade

Maybe Denmark I can see (outlets to the North Sea) but the Papal States don't seem to meet your requirements, nor Aragon. Not to mention Scotland, who your fixes don't account for at all, getting into the game as well...

Why shouldn't Scotland colonise?
