@Tecuatl
The alert sometimes shows up (and then immediately goes away) the moment a building is done, this causes the construction usage to be recalculated and tricks the game into thinking the country is wasting construction points. so basically your computer might be too good (game ran too fast), when you pause the game it should work as intended.

Have been using this as part of GORA UI but the alert seems to be present near-permanently even when my construction queue is full – am I misunderstanding what it's supposed to be telling me?

My mistake. but the Mod description and other descriptions are very interrelated so it might make sense to use a separator.

@Tosun Paşa
Which part of the desc is not clear?
Tosun Paşa 29 Sep, 2024 @ 7:48am 
What exactly does this mod do?

@Johnny 5
Yeah it's a bit of a yikes, but GUI modding is not really a skill set i have
Also that part of game was complicated due to the whole public/private ownership thing.
If you can think of a better way to do it you should tell that to one of the gui mod authors.
Johnny 5 27 Sep, 2024 @ 5:41am 
Also its actually quite pleasant to be able to get to construction queue in one click. The new UI which takes 4 clicks is kinda crazy imho
Johnny 5 27 Sep, 2024 @ 5:38am 
true i see your point there, having it is better than not having it
Ferrous  [author] 27 Sep, 2024 @ 5:37am 
@Johnny 5
I'd like to figure out why it doesnt work at that point but i've use this while at that level and it worked more or less just fine.
Sometimes the alert shows up but it goes away soon and that is still useful because if it stays it does tell me that construction is being wasted.
Johnny 5 27 Sep, 2024 @ 5:34am 
Sorry this still doesn't seem to work. Once you get to iron framed it just behaves randomly

Nice, thanks!

Gunteraz 26 Jul, 2024 @ 11:29pm 
Works great now! :gearthumbsup:

@Marcurius
Since this doesn't impact gameplay i have done an untested update.
Do tell me if anything is wrong
Ferrous  [author] 26 Jul, 2024 @ 7:11pm 
the real issue is that overdid it with the script name for the alert
Ferrous  [author] 26 Jul, 2024 @ 7:10pm 
@Gunteraz
See i was really confused because i'm pretty sure basegame already have this locced
Gunteraz 26 Jul, 2024 @ 2:33pm 
@Marcurius In the meanwhile you can open up WCA_l_english in SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\529340\3102909712\localization\english
and add the following lines to it:
alert_alert_unused_interests_alert_name: "You can have additional [concept_declared_interest]"
alert_alert_unused_interests_alert_hint: "You can have additional [concept_declared_interest]"
alert_alert_unused_interests_alert_action: "Diplomacy Panel"
Ferrous  [author] 19 Jul, 2024 @ 7:11pm 
@Marcurius
ill add this to the list
Marcurius 19 Jul, 2024 @ 2:25pm 
Nice mod, thanks! Is it possible to change the tooltip when hovering over it to something other than alert_alert_unused interests_alert_name? No impact on gameplay but would look better
Ferrous  [author] 19 Jul, 2024 @ 4:32am 
Pretty sure this works now
Ferrous  [author] 1 Jul, 2024 @ 12:11am 
Ok, im pretty sure the 1.7.1 bug is messing this up, we will need to wait for 1.7.2 sadly
Ferrous  [author] 29 Jun, 2024 @ 7:51am 
@Johnny 5 ok, i see the issue now, ill fix this asap
Johnny 5 29 Jun, 2024 @ 7:13am 
It does't work. It comes on at random and stays there unfortunately. It doesn't go away
Ferrous  [author] 26 Jun, 2024 @ 10:06am 
@Stafford
Works on my end, i know occasionally the game bugs out with alerts so maybe just let the game tick?
Ferrous  [author] 26 Jun, 2024 @ 9:54am 
@Stafford NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Stafford 26 Jun, 2024 @ 9:53am 
This doesn't work with vanilla 1.7. The unused construction banner comes on and never goes away. even with 20 buildings queued.
Ferrous  [author] 25 Jun, 2024 @ 8:21pm 
@Petro
I don't believe this needs updating, but I'll investigate
DeluvianSenecca 25 Jun, 2024 @ 5:51pm 
Please update

Captaiin 7 Dec, 2023 @ 2:06pm 
It might not be caused by private construction then, that was just my guess tbh. Either way, when I dismiss it, it pops back up again
Ferrous  [author] 7 Dec, 2023 @ 1:12pm 
Yeah, dismissal is the intended way to deal with that.

i'm relatively sure that private construction is a similar but different alert though.
Captaiin 7 Dec, 2023 @ 12:53pm 
Also, the declare interest alert stays up even when I've used max interest. E.g. as Britain I have 44 interests, but there aren't even 44 strategic regions, so the alert just stays up even tho I have an interest all over the world. The good news is at least this interest stays gone when I right-click/dismiss it
Captaiin 7 Dec, 2023 @ 12:48pm 
Great mod, just one important bug though: The alert pops up even when private construction is being unused, and when i right click to dismiss, the alert just pops up again, so it's constantly on the screen

Thanks you for this! It has been driving me crazy that sometimes i don't notice i'm not building anything for weeks or even months when busy with wars and stuff.
