POP problems in my new Provinces

[Savolainen5]

OK, while you do that. I'll see what changes I can make from your map so that I can make mine (since making new provinces are now off the cards, I'd have to go and replace a few provinces no one would miss, mostly so that I can add the ones I want.

I did that a bit too, in Siberia. So many useless provinces there. I'm testing my own creation now. I haven't been able to find anything different from what you've done so far.

Also bear in mind that my map is VERY different from the base one. The Americas are gonna be really messed up if you use my map, haha.

OK, I don't know how or why yet, but my test one worked. I'm gonna try to compare my working added files with the stuff you sent.

It's OK.

And you just got rid of how many provinces, exactly?

 

[Savolainen5]

It's OK.

From my map? Uh, I've lost count. Probably at least a dozen I moved somewhere else. Added a bunch too.

Oh that's great.

1) The test province is what exactly?

2) Maybe you can try adding some of the other provinces if that's successful.

I found the problem. You have put POP files inside a folder with the start date in question, otherwise the game doesn't know which date to apply it to and ignores it. I just nested them inside a folder called 1836.1.1 (as in the vanilla files) and they all appeared.

1) Shetland. I had done the 1836 folder, but then noticed that yours didn't have it.

2) No need, it's definitely that!

Really‽ Something that mundane?

I only intended for there to be one start date for the mod.

EDIT: So I did what you said and it actually WORKED.

Now I can just add a few more provinces without deleting anything!

Thanks!

Yeah, but since we're working with Vic2 mechanics, you end up having to define it anyways. I mean, the Clausewitz engine or whatever supports multiple, so you have to define them even if there's just one...

Anyways, problem solved, you can now add provinces to your heart's content!
