Description:

Note: The ‘Required Items’ for this mod are just highly recommended – it will work fine without them.

This had a big long description of what the mod did, but every time I updated the mod Steam would delete all but one line of it. This time I forgot to copy everything before updating so I could paste it in again, so it is all gone. I hate you Steam. 🙁

Suffice to say the point of this is to fix all the things I personally find annoying in HOI4 that I can. This includes a lot of PI’s lazy script bugs they refuse to ever fix themselves like broken focuses and focus interactions. I’ve also added a ton of various things that I was annoyed wasn’t in the game already. Also reunified Brittany and gave them a focus tree, because.

This used to include even more fixes and additions, but Paradox’s latest expansion made a decent number of those vanilla – like Brittany as a tag, Victor Emmanuel III as non-aligned leader of Italy, and Pact of Steel finally working correctly if Germany isn’t fascist.

Instead of listing everything like I used to, here are just a few select highlights of what the mod does instead:

– Adds non-aligned ministers for countries that needed them and turned it into a real ideology
– Let every ideology have governments in exile, because they all historically did
– Removed ‘either or’ choices for Canada that prevented them from doing both things they actually did, and made the Quebec choice actually meaningful
– Got rid of the anti-historical and nonsensical CSA junk when you go fascist as USA, and fixed error in their events
– Added ways to get historical cores for several countries in Eastern Europe
– Made it so Germany can’t coup Italy to Non-Aligned via focus with ease without their permission
– Allowed Communists to guarantee other ideologies so a USSR can defend Iran/Turkey from Germany
– Made Victor Emmanuel III ‘leave’ if Republicans or Communists take power
– Prevented King Michael I from being a ‘figurehead’ who also rules with an iron fist
– Fixed ahistorical and nonsensical depiction of POUM as militantly anti-Trotskyist, with Trotsky wanting them all dead
– Created ability to have historical ‘May Days’ crushing of the Anarchists and POUM, and mostly enforced on historical ai focuses setting.
– Fixed the unholy alliance of Hinter NKVD/Full Stalinist-mode
– Made the Stresa Front actually affect Austria
– Fixed Mexico being able to forever send arms to dead Spain
– Fixed POUM being treated like Anarchists by AI and Rules
– Spent WAAAY too long making some cool localization changes if Trotsky takes power in the USSR
– Fixed the localizations for everything related to renaming Stalingrad/Leningrad as Germany or Trotsky via event
– Fixed an insane script choice where AI UK would loath the Dutch for remaining a democracy and block alliance requests
– Fixed Italy losing 3 focuses if it made Libya collaborate
– Turkey will no longer sit in utter dismay and confusion as its Greek ally holds a conference about destroying it and then declares a pretends to declare war against it for laughs
– Turkey’s Austria-Hungary Focus now works
– Going Greek Absolutism actually has a purpose/benefit now
