Bug in French Mission Tree?

[Tulduil Iphukiir]

Hello together, I'm not sure if this is a bug or just an issue with 1.27.
If it is a bug I am going to report it but I'd like others to confirm first:

I am playing Ironman France on 1.27.2 with Random New World.

https://eu4.paradoxwikis.com/French_missions
This is the French mission tree according to the Wiki.
My mission tree is different:
- Instead of the French-specific "Diplo Missions" (five missions based around French American/Indian colonization) I have the generic "Diplo Missions" (probably because my game recognized Random New World??). It's a bit sad I don't get the India missions but okay.

- Conquer Milan and French Claim to Naples Missions are completely missing which have nothing to do with RNW. Are they overwritten because they share the center column with the Diplo Missions? (Annex Savoy mission still gave me permanent claims on Lombardy)


Is this only the case in 1.27? Did 1.28 change that?
How do other mission trees (GB, Spain, Russia) react to RNW? Do other unrelated missions vanish/disappear?

It is same with 1.28.3. I did 2 quick tests and without RNW the French missions look exactly like in wiki, but with RNW the middle column becomes generic one and Milan/Naples are missing from the end.

There could be reasoning for this (which I am not seeing atm). I took a quick look at the PDX bugs forum, did not see any thread about this.


The file
Steam\SteamApps\common\Europa Universalis IV\missions\French_Missions.txt

Does specifify not to use middle column for random world:
NOT = { map_setup = map_setup_random }
and I assume it disables every French mission in the same column, no matter that Milan/Naples are unrelated to the colonial. As far I understand by trying to mod missions, this is how the game is coded.

Weird, Portugal loses some missions about new world when RNW is active but remaining missions are properly on place.

You could report this, just use latest version 1.28.3 as I am sure nobody bothers to fix earlier version anymore.

Thanks for testing, tonypa.
I am then going to report the bug later this evening.
