first, you need to use "setcontroller [country tag] [province id]" .
check if the state is own by your country by 51% or more.

if YES, continue with "setowner [country tag] [state id]".

if NO, redo the "setcontroller [country tag] [province id]" with different province id. Do this until you own the state by 51% or more.
then, continue with "setowner [country tag] [state id]".


NOTE : pause the game when doing this.

so basically, you need to use console to make this game work as expected?
Wtf are you talking about?

OP wants to change the owner of an state? What this have to do with the game working or not?

Anyway, from what I have seen here, people normally use the command console to cheat, anexing countries without fighting, etc...

Just type "op" into the console and click on the provinces you want to have then use setowner

It does not work for me. Whenever I try to command "setowner [TAG] [ID]", a message appears in my console stating "invalid state id". Does anyone know something about this? Thanks.
