Mod should be updated to 1.9.6

They're meant to be unlocked via journal. Check your decisions after you research Pre-Dreadnoughts.

Was looking at the files and I noticed your modifier_types_definitions don't have ai_value.
I think it would be important for the AI to add some in comparison to the vanilla ones so the AI knows what to go after.
For example i think the Navy Professionalism and Armor ones should have some defined ai_value, while the Unit Specific Offense/Defense ones should probably just have ai_value=0. And also zero for the goods/buildings ones.

I've discovered that the "Steel Shipbuilding", "Turbine-Powered Ships", and "Large-Scale Shipbuilding" techs do not exist in the tech tree, making it impossible to build dreadnoughts and forcing me to keep building man-o-wars. It seems to me that these techs should simply be incorporated into the tech that unlocked the units in question, rather than be a separate technology.

It should be fixed now

@JustAnotherYuri
I'll take a look at it

PDX replaced building_employment_add with profession_ratio, so any mod that uses building_employment_add inflates employment per building up to 2k
Cutthebull Jun 29 @ 4:27am 
yep that seems to have fixed it
indexo4  [author] Jun 28 @ 6:08pm 
@Cutthebull
Maybe your mod haven't been updated. I'd check steam to see if there are any pending downloads, and maybe re-subscribe if it doesn't fix it.
Cutthebull Jun 27 @ 2:10pm 
seems i also cant monopolize or privatize my buildings as well
Cutthebull Jun 27 @ 1:36pm 
@ADude i have also have that issue with just this mod enabled

lets gooooo! ty mod dev!

Mod is uçdated to 1.9.4 now
1230james Jun 22 @ 11:47am 
Mod is not updated and very incompatible with 1.9 according to index on Discord. I wouldn't be trying to use this right now if I were you.
ADude Jun 22 @ 10:51am 
Possibility of mod breaking the right click state interaction menu in game

Could be a mod conflict, but it doesn't seem like it

has anyone else encountered this?

This is one of my favorite mods! Can’t wait for a chance to update!

@dissatisfieduser
Yes, if you're taking only what's necessary to make the basics of the mod.

Hello, I'm working on a military overhaul mod for CWE and I want to use the UI and code work you've done for naval armour and piercing. May I have your permission to do so? I want to apply armour and piercing to armies specifically and investigate how to do something similar for airpower and airdefense.

AAh finally I saw it, thank you!!!!!!
Fernan Apr 10 @ 1:02am 
@1230james I already took the decision to study them, so I really HAVE the tech, but still cannot build them. No new decisions, cannot see how to have one
Gokudo2003 Apr 9 @ 7:58am 
Im using this mod with one that change tech name "Steam Turbines" so can't research "Turbine-Powered Ships's" untill i change
steamapps\workshop\content\529340\2981452537\common\scripted_triggers
into some other tech.
just leaving this here for other people having the same problem
1230james Apr 7 @ 2:03am 
Check your decisions
Fernan Apr 6 @ 2:48pm 
I've researched Dreadnoughts already but I cannot build any of them, only Pre-Dreaad... how can do it? I cannot see how to and I cannot upgrade any pre to full dreadn:Rivals:

There's a creepy face on the admiralty building

Those techs are hidden. They're not meant to be manually researched; instead, they're given to you after taking a decision.

These decisions just open a journal entry with a timer and a flat cost to represent R&D going into developing the new shipbuilding technology.

The one for Steel Shipbuilding unlocks after researching Pre-Dreadnoughts and you have at least 5 units of ironclads in your navy.

Turbine-Powered Ships's unlocks after researching Dreadnoughts and Steam Turbines, and having 10 levels of Naval Yards on Steel Shipbuilding.

Large-Scale Shipbuilding's unlocks after researching Battleships and Electric Arc Process, and having 15 levels of Naval Yards on Turbine-Powered Ships.

Carriers have a similar deal where you need to research the more advanced carriers via a decision and journal entry.

The import offices are gained via decisions too; they require someone else having the relevant Naval Yard PM's tech researched while you don't have it yourself.

Check your decisions tab for locked decisions related to researching new ships.
GANK Dec 2, 2024 @ 6:21am 
I don't understand. The technology tree lacks the technology to unlock the last two levels of production of the military dock, which prevents me from producing capital ship products. Therefore, dreadnoughts, battleships and aircraft carriers cannot be built. I have discovered this problem two months ago, and the battleship import office does not appear on the page.
1230james Dec 1, 2024 @ 10:37am 
You're supposed to unlock the techs for those via a decision.
GANK Dec 1, 2024 @ 10:21am 
@indexo4
May I ask if the steel hull part has been repaired? Because there was no such building that provided PM with steel hulls, I couldn't build warships from the late 19th century to the early 20th century.
indexo4  [author] Nov 27, 2024 @ 11:23am 
As far as I know, it should be updated for 1.8. If there's anything broken, please let me know.
[DAO] Encoded29 Nov 27, 2024 @ 5:53am 
update?
MasterOfGrey Oct 23, 2024 @ 6:29am 
A little patch mod so that all TTS ships can be upgraded to all higher level TTS ships so the AI doesn’t accidentally get stuck with older ships in modern fleets:

@yimingtheyeeter3000 You are right, I don't have that steel hull either, there is no way to make a dreadnought
indexo4  [author] Aug 21, 2024 @ 5:53pm 
Fixed battleship import offices not being built
sungmo Aug 20, 2024 @ 11:01am 
Is this not fully implemented in version 1.7.5 yet?
Shavius Aug 9, 2024 @ 7:05am 
It seems that purchasing dreadnought no longer create an import office
Gunteraz Aug 8, 2024 @ 4:14am 
Pacifist agitators keep starting "Enact Minimal Navy" movements which are silly because i can't do that. Is there anything that can be done about it?
yimingtheyeeter3000 Aug 2, 2024 @ 9:46pm 
@indexo4, I looked through, it just isnt there, the ironclad tech give you steel hulls insted of ironclad building
1230james Jul 31, 2024 @ 5:46pm 
Might be better to ask the MR people about it since they're better about making compatches + their content is way more involved than this one is
Gaeul Jul 31, 2024 @ 1:25am 
the mod has some conflict with Morgenröte. The mod seems to change the tech tree that lacks the destroyer tech. The Pacific Discovery event would not happen cause lack of techs. Would you make a compatible patch to solve this problem?
Apalm [SWE] Jul 28, 2024 @ 12:54pm 
Any planes to do a simular one for the army side of the game?
Gunteraz Jul 28, 2024 @ 10:08am 
Thank you for the update! Everything seems good now. :gearthumbsup:
indexo4  [author] Jul 27, 2024 @ 5:35am 
@Gunteraz
The redundant dreadnought technology was a result of a change in an old version of the mod that I forgot to revert. It's been removed, although I don't think it affected the game.

And I thought I had updated the ai strategies file, but I seems it had been reverted to an older version. It's since been corrected to 1.7.
Gunteraz Jul 26, 2024 @ 11:08pm 
In the zzzzz_tts_technology file there are 2 entries for dreadnought =, second one of them looks like normal tech and the first one only has can_research = no as its content. Is that supposed to be the case? I believe the game simply overwrites the mostly empty one with the second entry without causing any trouble but i thought i'd ask about it anyway,

Also the 00_default_strategy file seems a total mess right now. It looks like it hasnt been updated in a year, missing all the changes Paradox has made over the past 2-3 patch cycles (Which there are many). I would advise to perhaps not use the mod before default_strategy file has been looked at.

@Hadi
The mod doesn't change any commander orders, it's probably a different mod causing it
indexo4  [author] Jul 20, 2024 @ 4:23pm 
@yimingtheyeeter3000
It does exist, they're unlocked in the Naval Yards by researching the Ironclad tech.
yimingtheyeeter3000 Jul 20, 2024 @ 1:10am 
@indexo4 I mean like the option to choose develop pre-dreadnought cannot be clicked because it require "ironclad building" PM for naval yards but the PM doesnt exist
Hadi Jul 14, 2024 @ 2:17pm 
For some reason i have all the Naval orders on my army commanders and its pretty annoying to have 6 orders on a land commander
