Was this added in the latest patch? This makes creating a custom world near impossible, as custom nations literally cannot touch each other at all...
This province is too close to another custom nation?

Wha... what? Really, what?! What is the purpose of this? This kills so big part of custom nations fun - I was intending to create a bunch of Middleearth custom nations (Gondor, Mordor etc) bordering and fighting each other!
Really? That is a bummer. I liked to make "rebel nations" scenarios, this will make it quite hard.
I can somewhat understand for multiplayer if competitive but else, I don't see why this restriction would be there.

Yeah, that's how I feel about it too... I thought the whole point of having custom nations was to basically redraw the world map as you see fit. Doesn't limiting that ruin the whole purpose of having them there in the first place?
One possibility was to stop a player from creating a whole bunch of opms around them that they can quickly expand into.
This hardly matters when the world is already -custom-.
I agree that this is a useless limit and merely sets back creativity.
I would LOVE to hear the rationale behind making this change without discussing the consequences. My mind is blown.

Here's what my bugs inside Paradox HQ picked up on this:
Paradox Dev 1: Hey, I hear people are having fun with this nation designer thing.
Paradox Dev 2: Well, better nerf it, then!
Paradox Dev 1: Okay.
Seriously, what a ridiculous change!

This only applies if you are adding a custom nation to a save - not if you are creating custom nations from a historical start.
I see... Though it ruins the whole point of being able to save custom worlds and edit them later though, in my opinion.
This describes a depressingly large number of changes recently, unfortunately, even if this one *does* only apply to save-games.
Agree; this change is still bad - what if I want to break my own custom nation up to keep things interesting in a sort of emulation of a major revolt?
I'd really love just a short, one sentence justification of such crazy changes in patches... Or even better, not changing things that are not broken...
Yeah, I made a thread about how custom nations couldnt make formable empires. They changed that in the most recent patch, and I think they will change this if we get them to read this thread.

Knowing what is the purpose of limiting that would help greatly. Maybe there were some crazy bugs with missions/border disputes between custom nations? Some mechanical problems? Because removing that due to 'balance' would be completely crazy given this is already customized sandbox mode...
