Description:

Nobody wants to scroll past many unavailable focuses. Fear not! Say goodbye to the useless uncompletable focus tree branches!

Mod is updated up to 1.18.2 with DLC content.

About this mod

This mod reworks tree positions to have focuses cramped together with some compromises. It also hides many large branches to which developers have yet to implement, like Netherlands’s, Bulrgaria’s, Afghanistan’s etc.

!! WARNING !!

It is 98.22% tested. Some case variants can happen, please mention! One word can do a lot! It should be stable and work properly.

Road of improvements

Please tell me if crashes do happen, you can find me in HoI4 Discord.

Generic tree
-uncluttered it

Not ironman compatible!

Due to how the focuses themselves are modified, it is not ironman compatible.

Does this work even without DLC?

Yes, it does work, checked all DLC disabled variant to not have been impacted.

Testing:

Just do command "ff" and play around "reload focus" when you want to reset the focus.

Available services?

Maybe? I like fixing things in focuses, will work for recognition. :beg: :beg:
