Announcement

Greetings Victorians!
Considering our focus is mostly on multiplayer and stability of the game-state, we are taking a look at the different parts that compose our mod and trying to isolate the parts that are most likely to cause desyncs. As is known, we are a small team, and this will somewhat delay the 1.9 update for the mod. We have already set up two playtesting sessions with our testers in order to evaluate, bugfix and isolate desyncs as much as possible. It is our intention to work on the update as soon as we get through our playtest sessions and fix however many bugs we can, but there is no current timeline for that.
As always, we are thankful for the support shown by the community, and we will keep you updated on the proceedings as much as possible.

About the mod

Main features of the mod:

Roleplay primers which give a summary of a nation’s history at game start.
Expanding and balancing laws, with some of our own unique laws and balancing laws so there are no “meta” laws. For example, public schooling is nerfed and more options such as “Patriotic Schools” are added.
Balance gameplay around history, such as making authoritarian and conservative playthroughs viable rather than pushing for modernization and liberalization as the only viable gameplan.
Nation specific flavor through state traits and unique journal entries/event chains such as a reworked Tanzimat journal entry for the Ottoman Empire and a similar journal entry for the Qing empire which can contribute to its collapse into warlord states or the centralization of the empire.
New nations aimed at encouraging intriguing diplomatic play in a multiplayer setting such as Poland and multiple Qing governors.

New this patch

Revamped Tanzimat: The Ottoman Sphere is getting more events and decisions to improve the roleplaying of all players involved in the area.
Carlist Wars: Pick your side on the war for the right to rule the monarchy.
Revamped Qing: Updates on all JEs and Events involving the Qing and their governors and tributaries, including their own Power Bloc, the Mandate of Heaven.
Frankfurt Conference: Sway Princes and decide the fate of the new united Germany under the Gutter King.
Balance Patch Update for New & Old Mechanics
New Icons for our Technologies & Mobilization Options

As a multiplayer centric mod, we also add many unique mechanics aimed for RP multiplayer games and QoL changes such as:

Great Power congress: Great powers can call a Congress based on the Congress of Vienna, in which a GP can request claim to a state, denounce or embargo a fellow power, or recognize a foreign power. Events about the Congress will fire for as long as the Congress is active, simulating interactions between the attendees’ diplomatic teams. Great Powers and Major Powers can vote in the Congress once their mind is made up by supporting, opposing, or abstaining the motion, impacting the vote by the amount of prestige they have.
Political Discord: This has been removed as of the latest release.
Money Transfer: A new tab on the budget interface enabling direct money transfer between nations to aid players in negotiations and emergency aid packages.
QoL for Multiplayer: Many other mechanics are balanced around multiplayer games, such as a split bonus to construction depending on your nation rank (10/5/0 for Minor Powers/Major Powers/Great Powers) and disabling the pause button/speed buttons so they are only available to the host.

To improve multiplayer stability, we have compiled and adapted multiple mods that range from QoL improvements to flavor mods, such as:

Compact States: Compact state overview which allows player to see all state’s stats in a single window.
Miniature World: Modifies models to be as true to size as possible, making cities look more realistic in the map.
Clear miniature roads: Prevents buildings from spawning on top of roads and rails, adding map immersion.
Enhanced Graphics: Enhanced lighting and graphics mod that makes several changes to make the game look better.
Dense trade route tab: Changes the trade routes tab into a more compact version.
East Asian Namelist Improvement: Fixes many of the East Asian cultures to have historically accurate names.
Mods that were used previously, and have inspired our own version of things:
Victoria Tweaks: Lightweight mod whose aim is to enhance gameplay experience such as tweaking population growth, small improvement to flavor, among many others.
Better Decrees: Adds and renames multiple decrees. We have balanced the cost and multipliers of these based player feedback.
