Poland and Hungary should have a historical alliance, make certain historical PUs guaranteed to happen by event, like Austria-Bohemia-Hungary, make Manchu and the tribes lucky nations so Mingsplosion will actually happen, and maybe, if possible, find a way to stop certain nations from blobbing in weird places (e.g. Ottomans into Russia, Bohemia randomly blobbing, France eating northern Iberia, stopping a united Spain). Just ideas, do whatever you feel is appropriate for the mod.

Thanks for your ideas! I will take it into consideration :)

However I will have a busy week coming so the next update will most likely be released next week.

Maybe have an event where if an US East Coast British colony revolts, the other colonies can become part of that revolting colony and form the USA.

Yes, I was thinking of something similar but for now colonies on the east coast will combine whenever they are all colonized therefore it causes the thirteen colonies to become too big to handle. This has been added very recently so you might not have see it yet :)

I have deeply brainstormed about your suggestion. The historical PUs and Mingsplosion will be a MUST however stopping certain nations from blobbing is difficult without restricting too much. I might come up with a solution in the future doe so I won't dismiss this idea.

I think part of the issue might be AI's provinces of interest setting, if that can even be modded. The Ottomans, for example, only go for historical land first when it is set as provinces of interest, which differs from save to save.

Hmmm, I will see what I can do :)

NDefines.NAI.AGGRESSIVENESS = 200
NDefines.NAI.AGGRESSIVENESS_BONUS_EASY_WAR = 350
NDefines.NAI.DIPLOMATIC_ACTION_FABRICATE_CLAIM_HRE_FACTOR = 0.2
NDefines.NAI.DIPLOMATIC_ACTION_FABRICATE_CLAIM_HRE_EMPEROR_FACTOR = 0.15
NDefines.NAI.CONQUEST_INTEREST_DISTANCE = 60
NDefines.NAI.PEACE_TERMS_ANNEX_BASE_MULT = 20.0
NDefines.NAI.PEACE_TERMS_PROVINCE_CORE_MULT = 10.0
NDefines.NAI.PEACE_TERMS_PROVINCE_CLAIM_MULT = 6.0
NDefines.NAI.PEACE_TERMS_PROVINCE_NOT_CULTURE_MULT = 0.4

These values in defines.lua should reduce AI blobbing while increasing their willingness to conquer cores and claims. I have not thoroughly tested them however.

Oh that seems interesting! Thanks :)

I recommend slower colonization speed in places like africa to prevent a scramble for it in 1700.

Yes, I don't know if you noticed it but most of Africa is impossible to colonize until the last age. Of course it's not perfect yet however it will definitely help already

It doesn't really make sense to give the North German Confederation a union CB on Austria, because the Prussians and Austrians were competing to form a German nation. Instead, maybe give them claims on South Germany and Alsace-Lorraine

Good idea, I will make sure that this will be improved in the next update :)

ok, thx :)

a cool thing to implement would be to add painting/representation of the historical events in the event pictures
