how to play as a released country?

Post by Kristijonas »

I want to release many countries, like Abhazia and then tweak them a bit, before starting play.

Is it possible? I remember it used to, but now when I select the save file, I don't get the choice to play as these newly released independent countries. They just don't appear in the country list.

I'm not sure what's going on there. Let me just clarify everything that you've done. You started a sandbox game, picked a map and played through for a while. You captured some countries and have now released them. You load the game, bring up the region list and the newly released regions aren't in the visible list.

Does that all sound correct?

Technically, yes.

I started game a sandbox game as Georgia (GC2020). I then released Abhazia and South Ossetia as independent countries (not colonies). I saved the game. I go to load game screen and in the countries selection I do not see either Abhazia or South Ossetia.

This is the save game, as you can see, standard country number is shown, new countries are not added.

There is no Abkhazia under Asia or any other region.

But then I load the game and the country is for sure there.

So the problem is, I cannot select and play as the newly released country.

Here you can see the country is not a colony.

I also tried hosting a multiplayer game and switching countries there, but newly released countries didn't appear there either.
This used to work before. I used to release many countries around the world like this before starting a playthrough. Now it does not seem to work?

Here you can also see Abkhazia is not in the "Involved Regions" list. Might explain why it's not playable.

When I look at the region it indicates it is dead and has a population of 0. It also indicates it's exiled. I think this might be intended functionality.

How were you able to release it in the first place?

Yes, regions 809 and 810 in W2020.csv are marked as non-playable. You might need to mod your files to make this work.

Thank you for the replies.

That sucks.

Anyone know any mods that may already do this?
