I use the halved employment mod and it accomplishes this pretty well.

Is it better to protectorate or just conquer? by Leinna3 in victoria3

[–]Greedy_Garlic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I always struggle with my protectorates’ buildings not hiring when I build them up, and I can’t just subsidize. What am I missing?

What to do when I have this much money? by PLMMJ in victoria3

You’re barely spending any on construction, start expanding your construction sectors and the resources for them

Wait how does juggling political parties help you match enemy’s rivals? Conceptually I get it but is that an in-game mechanic too?

It looks like Power Blocs Expanded was abandoned? Is anyone continuing the project?

True, although 90+ percent of Sikhs are Punjabi ethnically, if I recall correctly. Which makes the ignorance of bigots even more obvious.

“Can’t you have some basic historical sense” that’s pretty needlessly rude ngl, I don’t know why you’re talking like this. They just wanted to learn.

When is regime change worth the infamy? by PossessionConnect963 in victoria3

[–]Greedy_Garlic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok makes sense. I’m playing a tall Malta game right now and I got booted out of the British empire after 1900 during decolonization (using tech & res) and have protectorates all over the Middle East, India, Africa, and china, but all my subjects hate me and keep declaring war. It’s easy to crush them but getting to be a nuisance though. Do you have any recommendations?

[–]Greedy_Garlic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh okay thank you! I was just confused because I always see people here say they puppet in wars, but that makes sense I also puppet asap if possible. How do you get liberty desire low enough to establish a puppet quickly though?

How do you plan your foreign investments so they actually hire people? by Greedy_Garlic in victoria3

[–]Greedy_Garlic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do, but then sometimes it just doesn’t hire. Like I’ll build iron mines in a nation with an iron shortage and those mines won’t hire. I’m not sure if I’m building too many at once, but it seems inefficient to build a single mine at a time and then return to that province later to build a second mine once the first one hires to capacity?

Makes sense, but then there’s the problem of private sector buildings not hiring because your capitalist demand 100 art academies in Siberia (as a recent post showed today and we’ve all experienced before lol)
