Some needed fixes:

  • cannot trade regions originally owned by a country even if you got from another that was at war with the first one (can't even give them back to original owner)
  • a nation owning an alliance should be able to stop an ally wishing to declare war to someone or forcing it outside the alliance
  • after a broken alliance, units in forbidden territories should be given a pass back to home country if not at war

Forgot to mention the combat result window:

  • doesn't report air battles correctly
  • doesn't report bombing results
  • if a battle results in a win the bottom left window doesn't report any data
  • doesn't report battles you didn't start even if you have units involved

Suggestion: instead of cluttering the all messages window with tons of battle hits on units and experience inprovements, move them to the specific battle report

The pop up reports are reported last to first resulting in illogic sequences.

Okay so I'm using the editor right, and I create this really cool scenario in which I completely redid the world! I deleted every standard nation in favor of new nations I created! however, when i try to play the sceario there's a problem. When I select the scenario I created no nations show up to choose from! In fact, the whole menu goes blank except for two blank colums... :( What did I do wrong or what can I do to fix this problem? P.S. I have steam so I have the 1.26 version.

What are you seeing in Debugview? Also, when was the last time it was playable? What have you changed since then?

OK so i can play the mod now but i still have some problems. First, When i give a nation starting technologies, they never stay when i deselect that nation. Next, when im playing, I hit the next turn and the game stays in the phase of changing turns. It will never go on to the next turn. Any suggestions?

If the turn is stalling, probably there is something that needs to be fixed in the mod. debugView is very likely to report an error which would indicate the problem.
