Hello. So im playing Connaught and have moved my capital overseas to Manhattan. I have aprox 20 provinses done colonised in North America but not making that much money out of them because all but Manhattan has 50% autonomy due to the fact that theyre colonies. So how to get rid of the +50% penalty for colonies? Is it possible? Because like it it now my provinses adjacent to my capital are deemed colonies. Doesnt seem right to me.
Remove colony status on provinses when moving capital overseas

Now you will not be able to remove that penalty unless you move your capital back to Europe. Every nation apart from CNs and former CNs suffers from 50% LA floor in colonized provinces.
To not receive this penalty, you should keep your capital in Europe until CN forms and when it's possible switch to continue playing as CN (note this is only possible if you have CoP).

And how do I move my capital back to europe now? It says I cant move it back because I still have a big heartland around it. I tried move my capital to a single province in Greenland first but didnt work. I mean, how do I get rid of 19 colonies in NA without screwing upp my whole progress? I guess a restart is in order to do it correctly?
a fix is possible but will disable ironman
go into defines and set the line colony_min_autonomy to 0
this will remove the 50% autonomy penalty for same continent colonies.
this fix is possible on old saves but it will take a month to reset the UI

Put your capital on a province that was owned by a Native American on 11 Nov 1444. These shouldn't have the minimum LA.
Natives have 50% LA floor too, only CNs and former CNs (after declaring independence) don't have it.
They have a floor on their colonies, but as far as I'm aware, the provinces they occupy at game start aren't colonies, as they're occupied at game start. Therefore they won't have the colony flag and an LA floor.
The more I think about this 50% floor, the more it appears full retard.
A country switching capital to go overseas is basically pretty much the same as an independant CN.
A native nation that westernized also fits to the category.
This is also arguably true for western nations which moved their capital in Africa, and westernized african/asian powers.
But no, the problem is that, for the devs, Russia should'nt be able to have provinces with more than 50% autonomy in Siberia. Halving all Siberian's provinces base tax would have resolved the problem, but no, that imba solution was chosen...
More than giving the ability to go below 50% to CN (meaning only them can go below 50% right after the province is fully colonized), it would be more realistic to simply disable the ability to decrease the autonomy of colonized provinces, while removing the floor, meaning that only time could reduce the autonomy. Because the dev wanted this floor to translate the fact this provinces have a low population.
This decreasing could vary with the nation's tech group, ideas, and distance of the colony to the capital.

Land settled by natives in 1444 will not have the 50% floor. Everything not owned at game start will.
Regardless of any other factors, capital province always has 0% autonomy. Doesn't matter if there are rebels or it's colonial land or even if you click the raise autonomy button. It's always 0%.
The best way to do so is too give independance to your colony and become a colonial nation.
Note that this makes jacking Constantinople and moving the capitol there as Cyprus, Knights, or several other nations very powerful.
