Calls to war and marriage requests are notifications, the little circle icons that you see at the top of your screen ("Unmarried heir," "You can press de jure ducal claims," etc.) When one comes in you hear a door-opening sound affect as they appear with a "drop in" animation. I.... can't believe I didn't remember this. I'm so used to clicking it and pausing my game that in my head, I just remember it as a pop-up message. I have played this game for 578 hours.

Keep at it, young padawan. Once you clear 800 it all becomes second nature.  Note that I have proven several times in this thread that I don't know anything about this drat game

Veryslightlymad posted:My game does this, there should be a way to change the message priority for every message. I thought pausing the game for this one was the default. It's probably because it basically never happens. AI will only break a betrothal if something invalidates the marriage entirely (like one of the members taking the vows or being castrated). Even being at war with a betrothed spouse's realm won't break a betrothal - it just prevents you from honoring it until you make peace. This is why betrothals are a great tool to arrange absolutely terrible deals for the AI - they'll never let you marry their first in line to the empire son matrilineally to your daughter but they'll happily matri betrothe a 4th in line son to her and then still accept the marriage arrangement after you murder the three people in line ahead of him.

 But no, seriously, Pest irl is right on the Danube, isn't it? This has been driving me nuts even since I noticed it.

Yes, it is. That's how Budapest works. There's Buda on one side of the Danube, Pest on the other, and the Chain Bridge in the middle. Paradox province names can be only roughly related to the area they're in. See also: Memel in EUIV.

Since the last patch, is anyone else having problems with the game freezing and needing to be manually killed when you try to exit the game?

Is there any console way to end a war that you're not personally involved in? I've got a weird situation where Iceland would be totally down to become my vassal, but they're locked in a weird Faroe Islands Catholic Revolt that literally cannot ever end, because nobody has any boats. They're just sitting on various islands shaking their fists at each other for eternity.Eric the Mauve posted:Since

Not sure if it was the update or what the hell happened but the autosaves in my Warhammer game were hosed up something fierce, my Empress was some nurgle demon, mystic secret vampire in all of them. I had to roll back to a save 11 years before, what the hell. EDIT: Nope, that one's hosed up to. I'm a secret vampire there, some of my vassals are demons, some of my ancestors have turned into them retroactively event though they've been dead for decades. Just going to have to start over. drat. <_< Charlz Guybon fucked around with this message at 13:47 on Jun 22, 2015 |

If you're super salty about province borders, you could always try the Data Driven Map mod. I don't think it changes anything but the province borders, and yes, it puts Pest on the Danube. Schlesische posted:Implying any of the map anomalies will ever be fixed by non-modder sources. You never know. If they are going to add China they'll probably end up having to reproject the map, which would entail a complete rework. I wouldn't like to be the intern stuck with that job, believe me. Actually, if they are adding China, that projection the DDM guy is using (the Albers equal-area) is probably the one to go with.  It's equal-area, has startlingly little distortion of shape between the standard parallels, and can fit basically every relevant part of the old world onto the map without also losing swathes of real estate to outer Siberia or wherever.

Adding China to this game is just an atrocity of a terrible idea for a zillion reasons. Now a standalone China-focused Paradox game, hell yes I'd buy that.

There isn't even a hint that they will include China, it will probably be one of the smallest map expansions CK2 ever had.

Maybe, but Paradox seem determined to keep pushing the boundaries out, both chronologically and geographically. That genie isn't going back in its bottle. I figure the effort's better spent pushing to make it the best possible Old World 476-1453 simulator than trying to stop it altogether.

They need to get working on an actual spherical world map for CK3, so that in 2018 we can play on the entire world circa 1066! Say, dudes, do you remember my Sonendar fantasy mod? Sonendar v.107 -- it's compatible to the latest patch! I'm still working on adding all the eight million billion provinces in Not-Africa. Also this is an early version that has all the complicated events and decisions and such stripped out, so it's basically just the default CK2 game on a different map with imaginary cultures and so on. Still, it's nice if you're tired of the old Eurasia map. I like the new way to set the tech level of places.

I'm playing Norse Ironman. The southern Baltic coast has been under norse rule for several centuries now, though not under me, the Fylkir, and all the holding slots have been filled. It is in the 1190's at the moment, am I just hosed out of a holy order?

Ironman is a good way to test your patience with this games random events. Lost an heir then two kings during the course of one war. Warscore was at 94% but the second king dying meant the war ended as the claim was not inherited. Fairly annoying as I purposely kept put other generals in charge specifically to avoid this situation. To add insult to injury the battles weren't even being lost.

You know that your character will always be put in charge of one of your troops if you raise your personal levies, the only way to avoid that is if he is already the commander of another unit. So to avoid him randomly dying on the battlefield, you park your cheapest retinue somewhere far away from all fighting, and assign your ruler as their commander. Problem solved, you only need to make sure that that unit won't fight with anybody (best park them on a province of your culture and religion with no unrest), and you have to remember to reassign your character as the commander every time your ruler dies.

Yeah and keep an eye on the background of your character's portrait to see if he's leading an army or safely in his castle. If your character is craven that is. Of course any ruler worthy of their title leads from the front.
