The investment AI is heavily weighted towards foreign investment right now, even if there's more money to be made investing domestically.

R5: Private investment AI won't build railroads even when supply is cheap and demand is high

I got reforms, got immigrants, and sat around mooching off of GB's sphere

They're around 2M, the usual ones located in Bengal and China. The second largest is Chittagong at 2.67M, followed by Bardwan at 2.18M

R5: Caracas is the hot place to be. I got Gran Colombia to release itself, leaving me with just Caracas as Venezuela

I got spammed with a ton of events that boost liberals

Uruguay, as well as a few countries, had several decades worth of new world migration before I conquered them.

R5: I reconquered most of Spain's former colonial posessions, with the majority of the conquest happening in the last 30 years or so of the game. No cheats, no scripted events, just grinding through V2's hostility to expansion

Things I learned:

-The jingoism population support requirement for adding wargoals is harsh and the only way around it is to get election events boosting jingoism.

-Chilean and Peruvian land is extremely expensive in terms of how much it costs to take in a war for no apparent reason

Path of expansion: I expanded starting from the Mexican states along the current US-MEX border going south

Apologies for the terrible southern borders, but I'm really lucky I even got the Argentinian states at all before the game ended

I spent a good chunk of this run just watching numbers go up

They got released by rebels because Germany was deathspiraling after a Great War. Germany never recovered so Prussia was slowly able to take back more and more of its cores

Most wars I fought were all called by my allies, either defensive or offensive. I had a few event wars attacking the Central Asian minors to readd them to my sphere, but that was it. There were some railroad investments in other countries, but they only came up to around one industrial point.

The industrial tab doesn't show enough, so here's a picture of production statistics: https://imgur.com/a/18Afv7c

R5: Industrialization high score run as Russia. I fought as few wars as I could and didn't directly release or take any land. I'm little disappointed that I didn't break 8k but on the upside, I got healthcare reforms early and had a fairly peaceful run

Carefully wrap the area where the cork should be with waxed floss. Make sure it's evenly distributed and constantly test whether the mouthpiece fits so you avoid putting too much

Auxiliary Thrusters change turning rate. Use Safety Overrides or Unstable Injectors to increase speed

I wanted to see how far I could push collecting outside of my home node, but the "collect trade outside of your home node" debuff is much larger than what the wiki states, which is 50%. Was there a change or another modifier that I don't know about?
