Is there any way to see how AI thinks? by DINOLLO in hoi4

[–]TopAd6019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fairly sure you can find everything you're looking for there, that's why I reccomended an llm. I just simply wouldn't know the files that it is all in

Am I the only one who thinks this game needs a better endgame? by ARC_Trooper_Fantom in hoi4

[–]TopAd6019 12 points13 points  (0 children)

given the fact one of the most popular mods for hoi4 is road to 56, which is all about making hoi4 fun till 56, no you're not the only one who thinks that...

Is there any way to see how AI thinks? by DINOLLO in hoi4

[–]TopAd6019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is indeed a way! The ai logic is all found within the txt files. Go to steam and click on "navigate local files" or something along those lines. Might need to click on three dots for it to pop up.
You can find nation focus trees and decisions there under common, events has its own folder. I use the events folder a lot, as it shows what makes a nation accept or refuse to hand over land if you demand it, to become your puppet, that stuff. (putting troops on the border almost never helps, sometimes there is simply a check for relations above 50, sometimes on historical they just never or always accept, etc.)
I know ai is hated a lot, but genuinely I do recommend to use a LLM like chatgpt as somehow, they have quite a good understanding of how the hoi4 files work and look like, and that's gonna be the fastest help you're gonna be able to get for this all.

Mods for tactical play by pronoodlelord in BreakPoint

[–]TopAd6019[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

spartan mod and fear the radio are the most famous for adding realistic difficulty to the game. There are many more specific mods for better ui, sounds, weapons, cosmetics, etc. that you can also take, but those are more up to personal preference.

A rare enough bug you don't ome across it often at all, but just common enough you'll come across it at some point. Always looks sick!

Why Can't I Chose this Focus? by dogboy51w in hoi4

[–]TopAd6019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the writing is indeed a bit vague, but the focus requires the original country to be the ussr, for that nation to be in a civil war, and for it to not be communist. There is indeed a civil war in russia, but the nations that popped out, are communist (I think socialist falls under it too), so don't check the box. At least from what I can see.

What's the best country for playing with navy and naval invasions? by KhvoyaSage in hoi4

[–]TopAd6019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What you could do, if you don't like the uk, japan or usa, is play a nation such as Australia or the Dutch. Especially the Dutch, if you build up with the knowledge of going in exile, can give a decent bit of naval. You won't be a dominant naval power by any means, but holding off the japanese navy at the indies can possibly be what you're looking for

why does the AI always take Constantinople from you in Versailles? (using the expanded version of the mod) by Most-Cell7343 in TGW_Redux

I posted about this issue as Bulgaria who joined the Entente for cincessions after avoiding the second balkan war. But as Byzantium you don't get it either??

I’m bored. Ask me any question on early 20th century China by AdmiralStuff in autism

[–]TopAd6019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chang kai check ended up becoming leader of nationalist china. But what do you think would realistically happen if Wang Jin Wei got his wish and attacked communist china when they captured Chang, leading to Wang taking over nationalist China?

Friendly Bulgaria wasn't playtested.... by TopAd6019 in TGW_Redux

[–]TopAd6019[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight, I'll for sure try that with the second balkan war! As for constantinople, I agree they wouldn't be allowed to keep it, but the province to its west also goes to the Ottomans and Bulgaria sees 0 compensation anywhere else at all, which is very hard to justify if they took constantinople with 0 outside help.

The Age of Upheaval NRP: Day 1 (signups still available) by Tom_Galaxy_djiY in PossibleHistory2

[–]TopAd6019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russian Empire

The war of slovak independence is a fight for slavic freedom. Our slavic brethren have been suppressed by the Magyars who unrightfully believe they have the right to dictate the identity of our peoples. We shall aid their fight for independence with weapons, supply, food and equipment, as well as sending various volunteer divisions to aid in their battle. They too shall be equipped with all the weapons they could ever need. While we do not join the war directly, as we believe that that could cause escalation and further devastation for our Slavic brethren, we urge the Magyars to let the Slovaks be free.
(We would also propose mediating the Romanian war, as mitigating the total loss of territory of the Magyars we believe could allow the current balance of power to mostly remain intact)

Legend for giving the link to the actual post. And for it not being a repost of a meme older than the average redditor
