why... it did it again saying "Failed to execute script 'main' due to unhandled exception: min()arg is an empty sequence" and a bunch of other random stuff that I cannot process.

(-1)

i dont like this game, its too hard, even if i play on the best countries i fall whenever i have a war. can you make a difficulty thingy? please?

(-2)

I know

(+1)

skill issue

(+2)

It is incredibly fun but it keeps crashing to random lines of code and the fact that if you win a war against a country you cant take what you want you have to take over all of it is a bit annoying but cool game

(1 edit)

This is one of the best strategy games I've ever played. The only thing missing is more scenarios.

I get a lot errors when I play the game, please update and fix the bugs!. by the way I also used pygame... so I might able to help you.

Is Sosand preparing a massive update or something? He hasn't updated the mod for more than one month.

(-1)

Small question, how do you dissolve the United Kingdom? I notice that you can only do that when Scotland declares independence; otherwise, I'm not sure how I'm supposed to initiate it.

Please add back the old political trees from the old Spirits of Steel

So I hope you read this and this game is getting updated,
I looked into the files a bit and found out that faction wars aren't deleted after they end and are just emptied of members. This probably causes all the errors late-game. Maybe add an opportunity to mod the game and make the files actually readable.

Quick Question, how did you actually get the code into a viewable format? Best I can get is like 60% of it.

(-1)

Bro, why :(

UPDATE THIS SHIT

(-1)

AGAIN?

NAH BRO THIS GAME IS BAD


whats wrong wiih this game?

Bro Calm Down I am too

(-1)

Sorry brazilian

(-1)

Bro, I was Monarchist China, but this erro apears. Bro, I was with aliance and with 23 members monarcs.

(1 edit)

i am actally brazilian how did you figure that out i see also just don't hate on him he working hard on the game

Bom, respondendo sua pergunta, eu sou brasileiro também, e realmente, estou sendo bem desumilde com o cara, realmente deve demorar bastante para atualizar o jogo. I'm sorry for talking shit, I don't even know why I said that and honestly I was pretty stressed that day

any updates in the last month?

hasnt been an update in 3 months

(-1)

i think they should re work on the peace treaties it just gives you reigions

try it like age of history 2 thou also find a way to new country like maps

yeah they are doing that

yea

I finally got to play it, but something weird happened.  I was India, and there was a world war and while I was deciding the treaty, it somehow glitched and switched me to the Great Lakes nation.  How did this happen?

Nvm, I realized I accidentally clicked on the "Play as" button, but why is that even a thing?

The "Play as" button exists so it is possible to play as sub nations (Greenland, New Caledonia, California, etc) which do not exist at the start of the game.

HOW DO I DOWNLOAD THIS GAME

 I couldn't either, but I tried temporarily uninstalling my antivirus, so if you try that it might work for you.

Got it!

Hey GavGrub

Hey GavGrub when are you going to update your game?

I have been waiting

ngl they should add peace treaties

they did its just  a bit good

(+2)

Can you add air division,  ground division, naval division and armed vehicle divisions?

(+1)

add peace treties

idk if this possible but can u get this on steam ?

love it

(+1)

hey, GavGrub i know this is a LOT of work, but can you add different focus trees if not, mod support?

(+1)

Uh hi, i played it multiple times and it wont save, is it like an bug or what?

(+1)

Once you hit new save, it should give you a save name option. You have to name the save for the save to work.

(+1)

you need to click the empty space that would normally be where the name would go and then start typing a name for it

(+1)

found a bug when you win a war it skips the choices you can make like install government or join faction and instead goes straight to finalize deal when you didnt get to pick any choice 

(+1)

(+1)

the game says it failed to execute script 'main' due to an exception; element not found. How do I fix it?

(1 edit) (+2)

How does one escape off a Caribbean island with a single tile that happens to be a city tile? I got a division stuck on one

(+2)(-1)

you cant, but prob gonna be fixed in next upd

(+1)

build a port there

(+1)

you cant escape its an island city tile so no ports can be built. make sure to avoid taking those

you can delete cities 

(+2)

Nah bro, update this

i also had this problem but i fixed it with stopping time before saving

(+1)

Question: How do I win a Civil War? I keep dying because the enemy side has more troops than me. I try my best to get loyalty on my side, but doesn't work out in the end. How do I do it?

(+1)

Try maxing out your recruitable population and securing defendable parts of your country (islands, mountains, etc). They are difficult, but you can avoid them by keeping your stability high and changing ideologies before changing your government.

hey when the new update gonna come

Thanks for the tip! I'll try this out when I get into a Civil War.

its best to avoid those as much as possible so always keep approval above 50 no matter what. I won a civil war by retaking all my land but i found a bug where im permanently in a civil war even when the other side has 0 land, the music kept playing like when your at war

Okay I will keep that tip in mind too; thanks!

whens the new update going to come

Can you make Android version please

when is the next update coming out its been two months man

Bruh the game keeps crashing.

Honestly, make civil wars easier to win because it's litterally impossible to win one for me.

(+1)

please make a mac version if possible

Why does my country always fall into a civil war when I get a new ideology?

You have to go through the Political Focus on the Decision Tree first

can you add a option to decline a treaty?

(+1)

could you do pre 20th century

question can we make our own maps like world maps?

https://gavgrub.itch.io/sosand/devlog/874891/map-creator-tutorial

It has a lot of bugs but its pretty fun.  Sometimes the bug is really annoying though

please make a linux version

 great game! fun to ply and a bit difficult if you dont know what your doing.

one thing when you declare war but then the ai takes it (only when the ai is not in your faction) it wont bring you to the surrender tab and your permanently at war

how to increase stability with other than reforms?
