Update on the current status of 1.32

[BjornB]

There are 3 issues being mentioned more than anything else:

1. PU AE is insanely high, effectively breaking mission trees for some nations.
- This will be adjusted in the next patch!
2. Army Tradition is making dev cost scale up to insane levels
- This is a bug that is affecting people playing without Conquest of Paradise. It will be fixed in the next patch.
3. Game crashing when selecting units
- This is caused by outdated mods, specifically UI improvement mods. We've implemented something to prevent the crash in the next patch - but disabling your mods will solve the issue for now.

We are planning on releasing an open beta patch today with these fixes. We can not release it fully yet as it needs to go through more testing, but you will be able to get it anyway and hopefully it will resolve the above issues (and some other ones) so that you can enjoy the game over the weekend.

Stay tuned for more information on that during the day!

Thanks for all of your work. So far 1.32 looks like a huge improvement over 1.31 already.

I've noticed another major problem. After you won a war, when you take province and click pillage capital, it brings AE cost to 0, effectively removing AE cost from taking provinces...

Ways to replicate:
1. Start as Byzantium.
2. Win against Epirus.
3. Take Arta -> AE cost is 6
4. Select pillage development too -> AE cost is now 0.

Hugely exploitable.

@BjornB The issue with Court and Country is worthy of this list also:

Court and Country reduces max absolutism now, instead of increasing it. Beware!

From the 00_event_modifiers.txt: crushed_local_authority = { #Forever max_absolutism = -20 } central_authority_asserted = { #Forever max_absolutism = -10 } central_authority_subjected = { #For 10 years max_absolutism = -10 } Not...

just a couple of bug reports about crashes, something to do with an autosave? or something else?

I saw that it was an issue relating to integrating subjects and their boats attempting to be converted into land units. Can't find the thread discussing this, it could've been on the sub-reddit.

Obviously there are some more issues - it's inevitable. The first 3 ones are however taking up the vast majority of the discussion space

Okay yeah, just wanted to point out the huge amount of CTDs I noticed, that is all

 

[bokorthedust]

Will the update be achievement compatible, or should we stay on the release version if we want to complete our runs?

 

[Greene]

Hopefully this hotfix will not introduce new issues that will need to be fixed by another hotfix.

You know, like releasing a hotfix to fix a save game bug and then another hotfix to fix the crash the new version introduced. *wink* *wink*

 

[ArtFart]

Nice, looking forward to the beta patch

This is also fixed in the next patch

This is unfortunately an unavoidable risk. But we will release it as an opt-in beta patch - and by using it and reporting any issues with it you can help us ensure that the live releases are more solid

Any ETA of when it will be ready today?

 

[bokorthedust]

A hotfix is never late. Nor is it early, it arrives precisely when it means to!

 

[SPAMbuca]

I hope the bug that removes great projects from the map while tagswitching / the bug that causes great projects to freeze progress on upgrading if you tag switch is also addressed. thanks for the update!

 

[RMS Oceanic]

Betas in the past have allowed folks to get achievements. Make a backup save just to be sure if you're continuing your 1.32.0 campaign.

 

[Amadís de Gaula]

Thanks for the info!

 

[iClipse]

Thanks for both the transparency and the quick follow-up. Appreciated.

I have been enjoying the update so far!

This game is broken half the time. I don't see the point in playing it anymore.
