Non-Historical Mode Made Actually Playable

☕Buy me a coffee![www.buymeacoffee.com] ☕Ko-Fi[ko-fi.com]


Yes hello welcome mod

This mod makes the Vanilla AI much better on non-historical mode, and also adds a few new things for a slight vanilla plus feel. All screenshots are things the AI accomplished on it's own with this mod!


1: stamp out all of the annoying and questionable AI behavior on non-historical AI.

2: Add ALL the different custom country paths on ALL nations, and code AI for these paths.

3: Make existing focuses and events more dynamic, and more feature packed where the devs might have gotten lazy or not had time to fully flesh out ideas.

All of this combined should make Non-historical AI more playable, enjoyable, and most importantly, stable.


Please give me all your dumb ideas and tell me all the things that annoy you in any non historical games that you have played. And I can look into them, even if it's weird and an obscure scenario, (e.g. I would love it if nation X AI would join faction Y if faction Y exists) I can make your ideas happen!

My goal will be to consistently update this mod, but please be aware that updates may sometimes be a few weeks in-between. I do also have a full time job (I know many of you don't know what this is but please be patient)

Highlighted Features:

- Choosing a path for the AI actually works instead of it taking 6 years to change ideology (looking at you, France)

- Added more dynamic AI which actually plays kinda smarter for many different paths (e.g The AI can actually manage as Napoleon now, Fascist USA can actually win the civil war, etc.)

- Random non-hist AI will change tactics if their assumed future allies are changing ideology in most cases,(for example; Germany stops trying to do Berlin-Moscow axis if Trotsky takes over Soviets, and Communist countries will still join a Communist alliance if the Soviets aren't around!) If you spot behaviour that you think should dynamically change but doesn't let me know

- Added various events and a few new focuses to make some paths more dynamic, and make more sense.

Feature highlights for update 0.7:

- 39 new Danish path options, and a selector to manage Danish resistance. 39 new Swedish path options, 27 new Norwegian path options, and 44 new Finnish path options!!!

- New global conflict mode: every country must pick a path that they join Allies, Axis, Comintern or Co-prosperity sphere. All majors are historical.

- Events and focuses from all Nordic countries that created a nordic alliance, now only target relevant ideologies and countries, so things like the nordic council paths in Sweden are a lot more stable now.

- Restored the removed Quisling coup content for Norway that was in the initial Arms against Tyranny release, and reworked it so that you choose via event what to do with Quisling in the Historical focus tree, Historical AI will still act as it does currently.

- Made Winter war more stable for non-historical games (less likely to blow into a global war) and made Sweden and Norway actually use their decisions and focuses to prepare for war and support Finland, including Swedish Volunteer divisions!

- Compatibility with GoE and latest hoi4 version


DLC needed?
DLC are not required to run the mod, but the paths that use unowned DLC's focuses and content will not be available to you

Achievements?
Unfortunately not compatible with Achievements cos I edit a lot of stuff...

Can you make this work on RT56 or Expert AI 5.0???
No. I cannot. I would essentially need to re-create the whole mod from scratch, since RT56 uses completely different focus trees on nearly every country, and Expert AI 5.0 messes with nearly every game file that has something to do with the AI. Maybe at some point in the far future if I'm up to it, probably never.

Compatible with this or that mod?
should be compatible with most mods, except it is NOT compatible with:
- Mods which alter focus trees.
- Mods that edit AI behaviour a lot, such as Expert AI
- Mods that make major changes to the world map, such as expanded states mods.

Inspiration for this mod can be credited to Joshuia.Dufree's Custom Paths and Game Rules Improved, which is no longer updated. I have not used any code from his mod, though I may do so in the future.

Code from manlethamlet's 'Formables in setup options' has been used for some features of this mod
