No way to track immigration?

[Kazmir]

I was a bit disappointed when I noticed that there is no way to track large-scale (national or state-level) immigration in the population tab or ledger.

Sure, you can see the number of migrants/emigrants by province, but it would be great to have Victoria-style ledger page for immigration.

If you hold your mouse over the total population in the Population screen you can see your national immigration and emigration.

Did you see the tooltip for your country on the pop screen? I lists where all your immigrants came from, or where your emmigrants are going if you have more of those.

Where do you get that tooltip from?

Your Country name on the pop screen, just above the list of states.

I can't seem to find it. Could you perphaps provide a screenshot of it, please? Does it also show the exact province/state where the migrants are going or is it just a sum for the whole country?

From My AAR :

Something I just recently discovered, if you hover your mouse over the total population of France on the left side of the POP ledger, you get a summary of where your immigrants and emigrants are coming from.

The nation info only shows total for your nation, not breakdown by state/province. Maybe something for an expansion?

Seems to either not be working or has been removed. Shall investigate.

I interpreted the constantly fluctuating numbers of unempolyed craftsmen as an indicator of immigration in progress

On this subject I have a question too...

Why do states and even countries are losing Pop due to "Religion conversion" or "cultural assimilation"... The tooltips says so and I cannot figure how religious conversion and/or cultural assimilation can lead to population loss.... I mean i a Pop decides to become Protestant from Animist it should not disapear... I should just stay in the state with a new religion.

I feel like I don't understand at all how this works.... Any help ?

In the final analysis the most important number to look at is the one in the top toolbar, which shows your total POP and the monthly change, in green if your POP is growing, in red if it is shrinking.

Thanks for your answer.

I understood that, but I actually did the math in several single state and IIRC (I am at work so I don't have the demo here):

Total Pop Variation = Natural Growth +/- Various Im/Emigrations +/- Cultural Assimilation +/- Religious Converison

So I do notice the global variation but wants to go a little more into detail and understand the Pops effect of cultural and religious conversions, and those two do have an quantified effect on total number of Pops... so...

Let's focus on religious conversion on the country level (USA here). Why does religious conversion imply a population variation : does this mean that Pop how convert are also leaving the country?

I sure hope it gets implemented. It was/would be immensely helpful tool for AARs and to find those little details about your game that makes it enjoyable and unique.

Probably not that useful for larger countries, but I tend to play the smaller powers and like to concentrate on individual POPs from time to time and follow the assimilation/marginalization of immigrants.

Any idea if this would be moddable?
