Re: Mughalistan - Unable to see map

OK will try that next. Thanks. Update: Nope ... didn't work. It give an error message on Regional Decisions also, something about the region being blocked. Perhaps the two are related? Whatever is causing all regions to be invisible, perhaps is what blocks them from regional decisions? (Even after R...

Re: Too many issues with Forcepool

Hello. That is interesting. I may play Japan next (will take a long time before I do). Have you checked the VGN/GameData/Units and Units_prev folders? I found a few files with inaccuracies in the unit definitions. Perhaps the same for you? So that in the save you find the newer unit; maybe that newe...

Re: Mughalistan - Unable to see map

for me, when units and map show blank, I just use the 'e' key to select the next unit, and this shows the map. OK thanks, I will try that. Even when I use RevealTI, when I place a Regional Decision, it fails the next turn saying it is targeting a blocked or unexplored region, though I have an army ...

Re: Making South America Fun

Hi. Seeing this now, years later. Are you still interested? I've been exploring some of those things. Far from having all the answers, but it could be helpful if you still would like to do this.

I'd be interested in playing a South American game. :cwboy: :indien:

But using RevealTI seems to affect other nations as well, once end of turn is processed. I'm exploring adding KnownRegions using scripts, but it seems the map is still black as you described. :8o: :grr:

Hello all ... I tried searching the forum, but did not see how to edit the industrial structures. The problem is this: there has been a worldwide glut of cotton/wool since the beginning of the game into the 1860s.

Re: [VGN+] - New commands : SetUnknownRegions / SetKnownRegions

So I managed to script some known regions, typing one by one the region numbers into the script. The script log file says those regions are set to Known, and doesn't give any error messages. And yet, the entire map is black still, except for a few animated ships on trade routes and the hat/flag mark...

Re: Resource Appearance in National Territory

Sorry. The closest I've come is seeing within other scripts how you may trigger an event to have it "discovered." As well, I've seen I believe within the Regions files the base values for each region. So you could create individual events which lead to "discoveries" it appears. B...

Re: Giving Prussia Colonial Ideas

Hi. I made Austrian colonial events copying basically what you showed from Germany. I think if you use the same exact event name, the game will consider it already "triggered" and not use it again. Within the script, you can specify how many times it will fire. https://www.leqg.org/doc/age...

Re: How to play 1850 if Austria's neighbor

True. That made me do some reading. :) I had thought there were historical claims, Alessandria having been part of the Duchy of Milan (which Austria held). But it's possible to debate whether it would be considered a valid claim for Austria. (Probably they had recognized its attachment to Savoy, thu...

Re: Analyzing Save Games

That would be quite helpful, indeed. I have in mind to fix the Black Screen which requires RevealTI console command but then spoils the fun of discovery, among other issues. Instead, I hope to copy visible regions from another nation.

Speaking of Austria and Italian unification. Just playing as Austria from 1850. I tried to erase S-P before Risorgimento kick in. Yet after taking all S--P provinces including Sardinia (hard naval invasions) there is still not that 5 points per turn to war score. So I can only claim 1-2 provinces i...

Re: Amending PoN save files

:cwboy: Appears might be different from SetKnownRegions ... scripting RevealTI does not work. Entering by hand, would take a long time to reference the region numbers list. Seems console commands do not work in scripting.

Hmmmm

Copy/paste from another country would be much faster.

If you wait for the 1860s .... or even if playing the separate 1862 scenario ... is there a way to play into the 20th century? Is there a way to extend the end of the scenario? I guess there would be a lot of scripting involved to give more leaders, to even give upgraded units?
