Maybe i'm missing something but i really don't understand why Austria goes from 51.08 to 67 and at the same time norway from 52 to 398.
I'm fighting with a few countries in europe but what triggers the sudden change with those two counties?

As I said, hover over the countries in the alignment pyramid to see what influences the drifting.

hehe, well that's odd, I didn't experience any sudden shifts like that.. hmm
btw, my troops have just landed in los angeles, san francisco and san diego :P
the USA is putting up a good fight so far.
Something pretty damn cool happened as well.
Just a few weeks after my landing on the west coast, germany attacked the east coast.
I'm not even in the axis and don't have any intel on germany so I didn't see that coming at all.
USA getting ganked. lol

yeah the AI for the usa was soooooooooooooooo poor in HOI2.. you could take over the usa with a couple of divisions
In your game Surray whats happening with the soviets/germany ?? has germany taken over them yet or is that still to come.. will be interesting to see what happens with the usa if germany get steamrolled
Washington DC capital of the nazis ?? heh

What's the end date in HoI3, by the way?
It was 1947 for vanilla HoI2, 1953 for Doomsday and 1964 for Armageddon (no post-1953 content there, though).

Turning Point: Fall of Liberty, I think. Rather mediocre, according to most reviews.
I should give it a shot, though.

Yeah.. you just need that production AI fix for now to make sure the US actually uses their IC to build units. Without it on patch 1.1c a few countries build craploads of convoys and escorts for some reason, wasting a lot of their production and making them kinda weak.
The ComIntern still didn't get involved for some reason. Soviets are just sitting there.
I did notice an increase in troops on the Manchuko/Soviet border recently and a few minor nations joined the ComIntern.
I hope they'll join in soon and help me against germany. Germany seems to be pretty powerful... they took a big chunk of europe without any trouble, then started naval invasions of australia, some UK colonies and the US.
I guess that's what happens when germany doesn't have to fight a war on 2 fronts in europe. We're doooooomed!

You can open common/defines.lua to change the end date.

There is a tool to fix save games over at the official forums, if you get the slow down happening once a year, save, retire and load.
If your save game is >50mb, use the tool.
Really helps with performance.

Good tip, makes you wonder why the modding community have to fix ze problemo.
Loyal community is loyal, pretty extreme, there are no communities even close to this I think. Many games has been like paradox makes 75% of it , the community the rest.

Paradox has always been like this. Their games are great, but never so on release. |
Yeah im aware lol, it was a sarcastic sort of thing... lowest form of wit!, but still devs do it day in day out now so fuck them. Or rather publishers like to tell them what to do and they like to obey.. |

Could somebody please provide a link to this please? I've trawled through god knows how many pages on the paradox forums and cant find this in any of the threads.
This is my one big issue with the game - if I could just speed the counter up it would be mostly playable. Yeah, there's a few bugs but with a bit of time these will be ironed out.

You could manually edit the save file in notepad (or wordpad if it is more than 10mb). Look for extremely obvious repeating... and delete it. This is what I read on the forums weeks ago though, so your mileage may vary (make backups  )

The way they do things with AI/lua is rather hard on the cpu.. There is I believe alot more efficient way to do things, but then it would take away the ease of modding and fiddling for the user base.

you really think so? I was under the impression the cpu problems came from the excessive tags{} the game creates (system usage) in memory and dumps to the save (but still uses CPU even if you dont load the large save), where eventually you got so many redundant tags you reload after clearing it out of the save db file.
in fact one of the post from the devs IIRC said they worked on improving performance after using the various tab screens (diplo, politics, etc), which i think hints at some memory leak perhaps <- obviously they got a lot of probs
but the lua's looked real simple to me, as in CPU resource wise, it's really straightforward, 'if' this 'if' that + some objects and some few variables
but what do i know. i just want to make the AI scripts a little smarter, for example, germany really should invade denmark after poland, even if they are trading and at peace. why leave the baltic open when it already controls some 1/3 of the coast, or why declare war on sweden/norway but forget denmark; oh and then theres japan !!! they need some serious help

Hey its been mentioned time and time again for what ive read that the lua system is old, retarded and not efficient and is only kept the way it is for the modders.. But dont quote me, ask someone that is more into how that file structuring works while being accessed ingame..
Natan might know.. then again maybe he dislikes this sort of game..

Open your savegame with Notepad++ and delete all occurrences of "war_with" or wait for patch 1.2 which will fix this bug.
