African Colonies
Let me start off explaining what I like to do in Africa. I start off as Ethiopia and build a empire in the north region of Africa. Once I establish the land I want I start freeing countries from their colonial masters. But what ruins the game for me are three specific countries. They are West Africa, Equatorial Africa and Congo. Every time I take their capital it automatically gives me their land without a window popping up asking If I want to free them. This really upsets me because I do not want that land. I've tried waiting until the 80's and they're still a colony and have not broken up into separate countries. I've funded everything possible to break them up and still nothing.
I would like to know if I'm missing something, doing something wrong or simply there is no event for these countries.

Re: African Colonies
There is a known issue that we have been unable to get the break up of those regions into the pieces they contain or to "bring back" regions. Until this can be resolved those regions are always annexed. There is no timeline for a fix on this.

Re: African Colonies
Well I don't mind if they don't break up, I just want them to go Independent. Is it still a possibility for them to go independent?

Re: African Colonies
Going independent is what is broken.

Re: African Colonies
I would like to control the status of each battlezone as a colony or part of my empire. This problem comes up with any game where a large territory is invaded, or a territory that has invaded another region is invaded.

Re: African Colonies
I would just like to know if this will be fixed in the next update. Thank you for your timely responses.

Re: African Colonies
No idea. It is not fixed in the Update 3 test build.

Re: African Colonies
Well I started editing the files. I successfully broke up Equatorial Africa into three separator countries. With DR Congo I had to break it up into two separate nations and West Africa I broke it up as much as possible. I can't figure out how to break up the Mali federation, don't mind it being one country. The problem I'm having is Guinea, it keeps reverting back to France territory. Not a colony but territory. Could you possibly tell me a fix for that one nation? It would be greatly appreciated.

Re: African Colonies
Without seeing the files I couldn't say. We have a bunch of modders here, one can likely help. Two things to check; be sure it is listed properly in the .regionINCL file and be sure that it's listed correctly in the .CVP file.

Re: African Colonies
Guinea has its parent region set to 1689, If its to start independent it shouldnt have ANY parentregion.
(could be other errors as well but thats the first thing I found in a quick look)
Are you making them independent to start? Or trying to break them up Via events?
If so the event file would be needed as well. Also I haven't cached it to look at it or count them.. but depending on how much you've done you may have hit the cap for regions. (250ish IIRC)
