Nice mod,but Han people should not be obsessed with opium

There are definitely still a few major issues with compatibility with 1.9 sadly, but i'm working on it.

@Gl1tch I am hoping to have the update out within a week.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Jun 29 @ 11:04pm 
@Ducestadt, feel free to make a simple submod for this if you'd like.
Gl1tch Sw1nger Jun 29 @ 4:47pm 
is there gonna be an update to this mod soon?
Can Travancore change name to a more local one 'Thiruvithamkoor'?

Ah I see.

This mod isnt based on the real world version of the plague though

@Ergo Doctor Hawk Here are some sources to back up what @Azrael was getting at.

It wasn't left unscathed as quite a significant portion of Poland still died however, the Black Death's effects where much lesser than other parts of Europe, so it is a bit strange seeing it in the same state as the rest of Europe.

@Ura I had hoped it would work but i've not really had much chance to do any testing.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Apr 27 @ 10:10pm 
@Azrael I'd be curious if you have a reference for Poland being unscathed. Though keep in mind this timeline is different from ours.
Azrael Apr 27 @ 3:40am 
Poland was left unscathed by black plague, it should shown in mod that it is centralized state.

Hello, is it known if multiplayer is supposed to work or not? My friend and I were trying to play, but we continuously desync'd at about a week in.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Apr 4 @ 12:30pm 
The Years of Rice and Salt by Kim Stanley Robinson, yes it is.
殺殺殺 Apr 3 @ 10:33pm 
Is this mod based on the fiction Rice And Salt?
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Mar 21 @ 1:27pm 
@Apotheon can you point me to some excerpts/page numbers for something to base this on?
Apotheon Mar 20 @ 8:45pm 
for more accuracy to the book, Europe should all be muslim or perhaps tengri as well, and sunni should be split between sufi and wahhabi or some other distinction. otherwise this looks pretty incredible

very cool mod, just wanted to report that the Bengal Coal Company requires 5 coal mines in South Bengal despite there only being 4 available to build

Alpha 6 has been released!

@AntFrom yeah I'm having a hard time increasing the aggression of the AI. I'm going to keep looking into it.
AntFrom Jan 14 @ 1:09pm 
Great mod !

First time in a 1000 hours that i play until the end. Scotland into GB


Some remarks :

My numerous small vassals (Livionia, Iceland, Norway, Livonia,Scania) had countless revolution each despite having relatively nice SOL and Laws

Morroco and Mali colonise South America but don't give it back to their colonial puppet there.

North american andalusian colonies have no liberty desire beside being each twice as populous as the metropole

It's almost impossible to become recognised as an european country

India is the only place where some consolidation happened. Maybe building some way for it to happen in Iberia, Ottoman empire, north american colonies and mali could be nice

China is even more unstoppable than the british OTL
Scrof Dec 29, 2024 @ 7:56pm 
I really like the setting, but yeah, I experience full system crashes with it, and the AI seems to be extremely passive, there are barely any wars and revolutions apart from the constant native uprising spam. I dunno how else to report it as I have no idea what might be causing those problems. Anyway, looking forward to further development of the mod, it has plenty potential and the passion is evidently there.
Hakanmf Dec 26, 2024 @ 12:02pm 
Same with just this mod.
Hakanmf Dec 26, 2024 @ 10:50am 
Think I found a bug, I encountered it while playing as Andalusia, I reformed the powerblock into a sovereign empire and found that I couldn't subjugate 2 countries. The 2 countries in particular were Provence and The Keltic Sultanate. Whenever I click the button to subjugate it it breaks pacts between us and all but fails to actually make them my subject. I have tried this multiple times(within the same session with the same mods and a couple of restarts but still with all mods) it just drains my cohesion and stops just short of laughing into my face. I will try it again without mods but those shouldn't have been an issue to begin with.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 18, 2024 @ 6:05am 
@TheBrightestShadow, thanks for the report, i'll look into it.
TheBrightestShadow Dec 17, 2024 @ 5:33pm 
I think there is a spline issue in one of the states in Persia. A revolt broke out there, which crashed my game. this might have been an update ago, so not sure if it was patched.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 17, 2024 @ 1:40pm 
@zteho, @beiju, @Aaronthelemon, thanks for the feedback it's really useful. I've put the suggestions into my Trello board for the coming alpha.
ztheo Dec 17, 2024 @ 11:00am 
heyy, another point i just realised: why cant the sardinian nation form Italy? they have south italian as a primary culture but the only formation option they have is arabia with them not owning any core
beiju Dec 14, 2024 @ 4:58am 
I had a tiny look into the mod, and I like it. I like that you put female rights for the native Americans into it.
Unfortunately I noticed a lack of infrastructure. I noticed it for Scotland and the eastern American native countries. I guess there are more states with too few infrastructure.
Aaronthelemon Dec 13, 2024 @ 1:45pm 
Australia starts with 3 SOL, 80% starvation, and -100% admin. I think it might need some adjustment
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 12, 2024 @ 2:12pm 
@ztheo, that's a good point, thanks for bringing it up.
ztheo Dec 12, 2024 @ 11:35am 
weird question but is it on purpose that as japan you can gain independence on day 1? china cant invade you because you have more troops than they have invasion capacity and the quality is the same. if its not on purpose maybe give china a treaty port in japan?
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 11, 2024 @ 12:16pm 
Not sure how that could be. The speed shouldn't be any different from base game for most of Europe. I think only the alps have slower colonizing speed.
awesomesnake Dec 10, 2024 @ 11:45pm 
not really a bug, but colonization times in europe are a bit much
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 10, 2024 @ 4:18pm 
Another hotfix has been released addressing crashes from base game agitator events across several files. Please continue reporting any bugs! Thanks.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 6, 2024 @ 9:46am 
Hotfix has been released hopefully addressing the crashes. Thanks @awesomesnake for the lead. Please continue reporting any issues you may have :)
awesomesnake Dec 5, 2024 @ 9:41pm 
For me specifically the crash was caused by garibaldi being unable to spawn for whatever reason. specifically in the agitators_events garibaldi_events line 179. I just made it so that garibaldi_events.1 could never fire and that appears to have fixed my crash. Also on a side note all the historical japanese characters are like -600 years old lmao, had to manually kill them off via console commands.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 5, 2024 @ 8:49pm 
and/or the save games themselves.
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 5, 2024 @ 8:46pm 
If those who are crashing could please join the discord and post the error log I would greatly appreciate it.
zlamrespect Dec 5, 2024 @ 5:40pm 
crashed 1207
awesomesnake Dec 5, 2024 @ 12:48pm 
also I gotta say one of the nicest unintentional features of this mod is that the massively decreased world population increases the performance of the game drastically
awesomesnake Dec 5, 2024 @ 12:47pm 
I'm also getting a random crash but not around 1207
Afom Dec 5, 2024 @ 9:05am 
Anyone else getting crash around 1207?
Ergo Doctor Hawk  [author] Dec 3, 2024 @ 4:04pm 
Alpha 5 has been released (updated to work on patch 1.8!) There are still many things to do as always but i wanted to get something that worked out for those who want to play.
awesomesnake Dec 3, 2024 @ 12:16am 
the hordes of poland shall ride again!
