The economy system is very impressive!

@pavlos

Economy system is the headline, various improvements to performace, expansions to the tech tree, additional content for the American Civil War, expanded content for the CSA, Spain, Russia, really just a lot that i cant quickly sum up but you are welcome to peruse our dev diaries and changelogs to see for yourself

Hello, sorry for asking here but for some reason my discord is broken and i cant join servers! What is the difference between this mod and the main one?

Hopefully soon

When will the update be available?

Hey @Rogue_Falcon, I'm the eco guy.

Right now the panic is not very well integrated into the economy system, and there isn't building ownership yet (I do plan on adding it! Both state owned and corporations) so everything is owned atm by private pops.

I do want to better model the different economic systems too, including a Vic2 style system of gating certain actions... so a Lasseiz Faire England would not be able to directly expand or modify industries (though they can fund them through the Investment Opportunities) but someone like Prussia would be able to essentially do what you've been doing.

Not to mention reworking the panic to actually be an economic panic instead of just causing some damage to buildings and a mildly annoying modifier (along with reducing your economic situation).

Regardless, glad you're having fun with the eco system! If you have any critiques about the economy system in particular, please say. Especially anything QOL related.

Not suggesting that, More a critique on the in game event. Assuming That even if one chose to make economic decisions focused on stability in anticipation of a global crash, The hard coded event would still wipe your gains. Example of my own game play involves upgrading rail lines and ports, followed by bringing resource production up to date technologically. Last being industries and farms in that order. Though this tends to progress very quickly. Politics focused on social reforms enhancing stability. And choosing not to rebuild the castle and reallocate money and resource to domestics should have more long term benefits. It can be reconstructed later. And still got enough funds in stock that if the option to support the rail lines and factories existed it should last more than long enough. That and expanding domestic demand should more than cover lost revenue.

If im understanding you correctly, the issue with your suggestion is that extended interventionism like youre suggesting wasnt part of the conversation in the prussian government as far as we know

Pure capitalist economies tend to be Vulnerable to such events. Prussia's saving grace was it's mixed state owned economy and heavy regulations. Still, the 1857 crash is fairly frustrating on the point that I do have a fair amount of cash on hand. No option to use the surplus to help, or nationalize the railroad. Not even going to touch the conversation of using the army for some form of internal work. Can't do anything until 1861 after the reform focuses.

I dont expect so. Prussia along with much of Europe was affected by the ripple effects of the panic of 1857, while Prussia is dealing with some minor inconveniences, i can assure you the US was dealing with worse.

So far I really have appreciated the detail in the economic system. It doesn't seem as sluggish compared to the base game. Only thing I'm not real keen on is being forced into the global stock exchange sub system. Given the first major event in 57' is the railroad crash. Playing as Prussia my economy was doing better that some of my neighbors, still had to deal with rail and factory shut downs. Will there be a way to opt out of the exchange or at the least have a backup internal one.

its just taking longer to update

Yo energywelder what hapenjd to the mod tho did you guys pick it up or its just taking a lot to Update

We're already working on a liberal path for the unification of germany, presupposing Wilhelm I's son comes to the throne earlier (historically feasible)

But speaking personally i dont think a '48 or '15 start date makes much sense in HOI4 strictly. The idiom of HOI4 is to represent *industrialized warfare*, and there's barely enough industrial powers in 1857 to make sense. I think the team past and present has done an amazing job representing all the preindustrial and even primitive powers in the world. But when you have to start introducing unindustrialized great powers into the game . . . it just breaks down IMO

I know this is a bit out of the scope of the mod, but would you ever consider adding around 1848 or 1815? I feel like that would be a really interesting playthrough as a liberal unified Germany.

okey

And we've been working for 9 months, some civility would do you good

We've been waiting for 9 months, and so far one baby has been born.

because we're still working on it

Why hasn't the update arrived yet?

im . . . not sure what would cause that, can you join our discord and pass us your corrupted save?

Yes

the save file became unavailable? As in its contents became corrupted?

Started as Qing in 1857 in Ironman mode. When the year reached somewhat near 1900, the save file changed flag (to revolutionary China with coloured stripes if I remember correctly while in the game it was still emperor/regency) and become unavailable.
This problem repeated.

@scorny we are working on the next update, im no longer sure on timing, what kind of troubles are you encountering?

When will the update be available?

Please, tell when the next update is planned to be released?
The game as Qing has some troubles with save/load when timeline get closer to the 1900s

take them how, via the colonization mechanic?

game keeps crashing when trying to take regions in africa as france

this has been fixed on our github and will be in the next steam update

Hey I think air is broken, because whenever I try to deploy recon balloons the game crashes

we're working on it

Please, please, PLEASE update, optimization would triple the player base. expanding the dates that you can play to means nothing if you're running on 20+ minutes a year

@cyber until what year varies by nation

@willy we're working on it

guys, what until year the game more or less well done?

Please make an update so the mod doesnt completely die

what do you mean?

CSA is a joke

the tribes FTs are not overpowered, we've invested a lot of effort in keeping things balanced

Please don't have Paradox priorities and do NOT give African tribes busted focus trees.

If you are playing as Prussia in 1857, that is because the prussian constitution and laws were greatly restricting the army at the time

Why can't I recruit units around 1850s?

we are working on optimization, that is part of what is slowing down our next update

mod is pretty damn slow, is there a workaround?

We do not currently have someone working on Brazil, it is a small team :(

Brazil update
