Less Border Gore - Claim Colonial States

Description
Updated for 1.9

This is a mod meant to reduce border gore in colonies by adding a Journal Entry which allows countries to claim any states they own that are under colonization, thus preventing anyone else from founding a new colony there.

The Journal Entry is unlocked by enabling the Colonial Affairs institution, and allows you to claim any state that A. Is partially owned by you, and B. Is under colonization (by you or another country). This prevents the creation of new split states, but doesn't cut any country off from colonizing a state they own that's split at the start of the game.

This JE is available to both players and the AI, who is programmed to always take the decision at the first available opportunity. It requires a new game to work - the mod won't break anything if you enable it, the JE just kinda won't show up.

I made this mod with compatibility in mind, and since it doesn't overwrite any files, it should be compatible with literally any mod, including total conversion mods. If it's not, please let me know and I'll do my best to fix it.

@Elizalexa Jones Good point, I'll also change the parameters of when you can/can't claim a state as well to account for situations like this

It'd also make texas playable again since even if they win the survival war mexico still has a claim on texas and you can't touch it lol

@Elizalexa Jones Good thought - most states that can realistically be contested already start split, and I already have a system in place to account for that, but I might be able to just manually add a few extra claims on some states or something

How about an option for North America not being claimable so mexico and the USA can properly compete over the colonizable land?

@Zippy Probably not, I don't think there are many cases where the player would even want to do this, and pretty much every possible way I can think of to implement this would make the mod clunkier and more annoying to use.

Is there any particular reason why you'd want to? No promises, but I might be able to implement a different workaround if you're experiencing some sort of problem

any possibility of allowing us to choose what to claim instead of everything at once?

@Касим It should be, let me know if you run into any problems and I'll see if I can fix it. Thanks for the positivity!

Dear developer, thank's for your mod. Only one question: is it compatible with "Colonial Government all over the world 1.9" mod?

Oh that somehow fixed it. Thanks

@Avekat Did you try unsubscribing and re-subscribing to the mod? Steam sometimes gets kinda weird sometimes when trying to update a mod
