v.1.5.1 [8818] War in Heaven won't end

[Skotcher]

Description:
After occupying every planet of the enemy Awakened Empire, destroying all their ships, and all their stations, the war score is stuck at 88% and my Awakened Empire will not send a peace deal.

DLC:
- Arachnoid Portrait Pack
- Horizon Signal
- Leviathans Story Pack
- Utopia
- Plantoid Species Pack

Mods:
None

Reproduction Steps
1. Fallen Empire Awakens (Xenophile)
2. Sign as Signatory (with a vassal underneath you)
3. War in Heaven Event Fires (Xenophile vs. Xenophobe)
4. Join overlord in war
5. Occupy enemy Awakened Empire territory
6. Occupy enemy vassal territory

Those are all the most important steps that I can think of.

6. Save File Attached. Ironman.

Me and my friend are having exactly the same problem (except for the "with vassal underneath you"-part) but our warscore is frozen at 59%.

This is a save from before it happened (it's attached to a bug report about an unrelated issue): https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...iles-when-enemy-fighters-are-present.1014347/

 

[Kenshi]

yep, I am having the same Problem in my current game. Warscore stuck at 77%, all planets occupied, all fleets destroyed, every single mining Station and outpost destroyed. I have no possibility to gain any more warscore. (I am a vessel of an AE)

 

[Elric]

I also have the exact same problem. I am a vassal of the materialist AE, and we have occupied all the opposing empires' planets and destroyed all their fleets. Warscore is 89% and cannot get any higher since there are no more planets left to occupy. The war however will not end, even if I fast forward and wait a lot of years.

 

[Zemurin]

Same issue. Stuck at 78%, all enemy planets occupied, not a single enemy ship exists (built entire sensor array to confirm while waiting). Stuck.

 

[Kreliann]

Having the same problem. Anyone knows a console command to end it? How to give 100% warscore to the one winning? I only know how to do that to my own wars.

I want to know too, if there's anything that can be done about it. This bug is game ending.

I found it myself.

In console, you need to know the ID of the empire you want to lose the war.

First type debugtooltip
After that hovering over the empire will show its ID (usually a 1 or 2 digit number)
Then type surrender [country id]
It will show all current wars of said empire and their war ID.
Finally, type surrender [country id] [war id]
And the war in heaven will end.
Lastly, type again debugtooltip, so game go back to normal.

I hope this helps.

Regards

There's a victory scoring condition "War Goals" the description says that it goes up and dowan depending whether you control your war targets. It doesn't work. The Devs put it as a safe guard to stop galactic empires to loose wars after getting a fef ships shot down. But although it prevents from having 100% war score just like that, it also (as it doesn't work at all) prevents you from ever getting to 100% in time. That's my theory. I may be wrong.
Edit.
I just remembered. I've beaten AE while jumping into the War in Heaven as a 4th party (neither either Sattelite, nor the Coalition) invaded lat remaining planet or the Regulators. Got 100% in an instant and won the war. It was, however, the only time I got 100% warscore in Utopia.
I think the WS capping may also have something to do with the AE satellites. Try to knock AE allies out and see if WS goes up.

thx, will try it

Exactly the same issue here, save uploaded. The Unbidden invaded during the war and MIGHT have taken out some enemy allies, maybe that didn't affect the max enemy planets calculation as it should have...

 

[unquietwiki]

Can report the same. All tradition trees mapped out. Non-aligned alliance accidentally freed me from my overlord, while taking them on. Switched ethics from Pacifist to Militarist, just so I could try to win by conquering other Fallen & non-participants. No mods active; Ironman (achievements are working). If it weren't a cloud save, I'd post mine.

 

[Promethium]

Can confirm same for my ironman save.

Not sure how to upload save. It is also a cloud save so if unquietwiki is not uploading for that reason I guess I am right in not doing so also.

Score locked at 75%. All DLC purchased and using. No mods.

Seeing as console commands can fix this issue I'm never playing ironman again...

Edit: I suppose it's worth mentioning that the Unbidden showed up in my game mid-war. I defeated them singlehandedly, and they did not destroy any enemy planets, but this may have helped cause this problem.

 

[domein]

Same issue for me, and i think it was reported many times over.

 

[Arihel]

Same thing here. Unbidden showed up, ate a few enemy planets and the score count is screwed.
Game breaking bug on my first Ironman game and no response from the devs till now.

 

[unquietwiki]

Followup on this: I notice that the assorted AI empires aren't necessarily doing ground invasions, if they're involved in the War in Heaven. Examples: one neutral empire won't take over another that's opposed to my former overlord; another being that the Alliance can't take over my overlord's planets.

 

[Elric]

Does anyone know if this is fixed in 1.6? Encountered twice already, it truly is a game ending bug.

 

[Promethium]

I had a look through the patch notes myself and couldn't find anything that said it would fix this issue. Hopefully it is an undocumented fix...

I did not see a fix either in the patch notes. If it's indeed not fixed, it should be a priority for a hotfix. As numerous other posters said, it's completely game breaking.

 

[KopiG]

Yes I have also posted a thread about the same issue.
