I'm making the official call for Aurora 4x.
Terraforming installations > Terraforming ships
Before you leave Sol this is indisputable. It's just too damn expensive and time consuming to build the ships. First it's going to take years to get a shipyard to a real size so you aren't building ships with 1 god damn module on them. Then they take up precious Mercassium, while installations only take Duranium and Boronide. Then you need to build all the other ship shit that makes them go in space which is more resources and a side effect, more time.
If you build infrastructure right then the colonies should start building enough of their own to be self sufficient until you terraform the planet, then you ought to have tens of thousands of infrastructure to move around and repeat the process.
Unless you're retarded and you try to put infrastructure on Venus. They're only going to complain your whole game and put interrupts in your auto-turns. It can be colonized, but only by ships and it will take like 100 years from the moment you start to colonize it.

Features Eastern Rumelia and not much else, completely compatible with HPM, eastern Rumelia gets released during the Berlin Congress, there are events that move some turkish pops in rumelia to istanbul and Bulgaria can annex Rumelia if they have Mass Politics.
I'll start with Crete since that was the cause of the Greco-Turkish War
From this map it appears the Turks didn't have as much of an ethnic presence irl that they do in HPM, so I'll try to find some census data then fix it.

how this happen? The holy roman empire took over most of northern italy and to be honest I want to limit the kaiser's power. An invasion later and boom no more germans in italy.
but now came the hard part of holding it, so in a bold political move I made my son catholic and then made him king of italy, my other son is also a king so I wont inherit the kingdom, thank god, but now that I have family on the thrones of italy and the byzantine emprie I can assure I have dominance over meditteranean politics.

Here's the problem, there are way too many turks in Crete. Historical, although Crete had a sizable muslim population, many of those muslims were Greek converts who converted to get favorable taxes/civil advantages. I'm going to halve the Turk population but replace the removed turks with muslim Greeks. The religion wont change, but the ethnicity will.
Here's sources

It was supposed to divide Australia into it's individual states prior to federalisation as happened in real life rather than Britain just giving them independence as Australia, of course it never did because the creator was a PoS who managed to make the first ever vaporware mod.
>>128725489
>>128725463
Alright I'll level with yah, lads, this is rob here, I was trying to defamate HPM again.
Seriously though, even you have to admit he's stubborn to add anything, during the Sudetenland debacle people were trying to get him to add it and he said it was pointless as the German minority was already represented and that such a thin border would cause graphical issues, in short he tried to swerve it.
>>128725705
So absolutely no proof at all?

If you know what he said it makes it even easier to find the post
>>128724585

I dunno, would it even have an effect on gameplay besides just having more satellites/tags in Australia?

pretty pointless imo, what next, 5 independent substates in Canada prior to confederation? The country received independence as a united Australia, anything that happened before that was shifting administrative responsibilities.
>>128725859
Jesus the HPMIDF is busting my balls tonight.
I don't know his exact words, I'm paraphrasing, I believe you're practising some pretty rampant cognitive dissonance in not acknowledging how prone HPM is to being stubborn.
>>128725884
Something great ruined by black people and the UN
>>128725917
Are you meming right now lad? I can't tell. Canada does have 5 independent substrates prior to confederation, Rupert's land, Newfoundland, the Maritime union, Colombia and Quebec.

Historical accuracy is a meaningful argument.
>>128725991

>>128726106
those are tags with cores owned by the UK, not independent states on the map day 1. And I was referring to Upper and Lower Canada, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, the Maritime union is an ahistorical abstraction that shouldn't exist if you want to go to that level of detail.

I have no problem with HPM personally (apart from that he is too stubborn for his own good) but the fact that saying anything against the party line gets you violently attacked by a mob of obsessive fans has really made /gsg/ a worse place.
>>128725991
I believe you just made a bullshit claim that he said he wouldn't integrate anything and made excuse after excuse to not present proof
Calling anyone HPMIDF shows you are just here to create some drama

Hot damn HPMIDF is out in full force tonight. Reddit must be down.
Ladies and gentlemen, does anyone remember the days when Khazaria would cease to exist 15 years into the game? I sure do.
Khazaria isn't the only Khazarian nation by the way, they took over Serbia, Khiva, Armenia and even formed a friendly merchant republic in Nikopolis which has tried 3 times to invade Byzantium and fail.
Meanwhile my quaint little ethiopian jewish kingdom flourishes after repelling two invasions from the Miski sultanate which is now imploding after their caliph of 62 years died.
Rate my autism please.

Which is different from "he specifically said he wouldn't integrate this mod because he's a massive fucking faggot.", and you can add to that he consistently integrated good work before.
By the way he said that he wouldn't integrate RDS because he has his own system, because RDS got some shit wrong and because he would rather leave people choose how their map looks
>>128726429
It's true though and happens all too often. I don't understand the mentality of people who feel they have an obligation to protect an anonymous modder on the internet who they've never even met.
>>128726594
It's true that asking for proof of a claim is being violently attacked?
Are you a SJW?
>>128726278
Yes, that's how it would be for Australia. Currently the entire bottom right of the map lacks any flavour whatsoever, where Canada has all that shit going on.

Provide proof for this statement.
>>128726594
Maybe they just feel the need to protect something they love, it's basic human instinct
What I don't understand is why people feel they have an obligation to attack someone they never met because he does a mod they don't need to play, to the point of pretending to be him, faking posts and shit
>>128726726
I just think having them as substates like the minimod does is silly, having cores and events to represent federation sure (though annoying if you just want to play a released Australia game), but if there's one thing HPM doesn't need its more useless puppet states with >50k pops. Canada has all that shit going on but until 1867 and federation its all just British colonies, the flavour happens under the hood so to speak.
>>128726885
Provide proof people feel the need to defend HPM.

It was just an attempt to stir drama
Dutch game in victoria 2, already reclaimed Belgium, as well as seized the british Malay colonies in the war. Everything may have gone better than expected. I have a ton of infamy though, should I just be slow burning infamy while I wait and building up industry taking the indonesia imperialism events?

The territories current flags could serve as their monarchy flags, wouldn't be hard to concoct rep, fascist and com flags.

kek. if you love HPM, then that explains more than enough. I hope your life improves so that you no longer have to compete for the heart of an anonymous modder on the internet.

Here's some proof on the status of the Australian states.
>Between 1855 and 1890, the six colonies individually gained responsible government, managing most of their own affairs while remaining part of the British Empire.[17] The Colonial Office in London retained control of some matters, notably foreign affairs,[18] defence,[19] and international shipping. New Zealand achieved responsible government in 1853, New South Wales and Victoria in 1855, Tasmania in 1856, Queensland in 1859 (separated from New South Wales in that year with self-government from the beginning) and Western Australia in 1890. These arrangements were confirmed by the Colonial Laws Validity Act 1865.
>The Colonial Laws Validity Act 1865 was a British Act of Parliament to define the relationship between local ("colonial") and British ("imperial") legislation. It confirmed that colonial legislation was to have full effect within the colony, limited only to the extent that it was not in contradiction with ("repugnant to") any Imperial Act which extended to that colony. The Act had the effect of clarifying and strengthening the position of colonial legislatures, while at the same time restating their ultimate subordination to the British Parliament.
>Until the passage of the Act, a number of colonial statutes had been struck down by local judges on the grounds of repugnancy to English laws (whether or not those English laws had been intended by Parliament to be effective in the colony). This had been a particular problem for the government in South Australia, where Justice Benjamin Boothby had struck down local statutes on numerous occasions in the colony's Supreme Court.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonial_Laws_Validity_Act_1865
I believe on the dates provided the states should gain independence as either substrates or puppets of Britain.

Seriously man, maybe you should just chill out away from /gsg/ for a while. There is more to life than an average mod for a 5 year old game. Give your parents a call or play some frisby maybe, you know?
>>128727709
Well man it's not like I can do all that and still love a mod or a game
Why don't you just stop worrying some random stranger on the internet likes something? Why does that bother you that much?
>>128727631
So are we actually going to discuss this lads or keep shitposting about nothing? I really want to see Australia fleshed out in Vicky.
>>128727850
It doesn't particularly bother me but when someone feels so strongly about a video game mod that they say they "love" it and see the mod creator as a member of their own family, you'd be a fool not to expect some confused reactions to that. It's a very strange thing to consider a mod or video game as an object of affection.
I hope things get better for you. Seriously, man.
>>128728263
>it and see the mod creator as a member of their own family
Well shit, do tell me when someone says that then
If you can't love a good mod or a good game, then I suggest you are in the wrong place, Most people who play video games are very passionate about their hobby, which is why things can lead to big shitstorms easily
What a sad life you must live when you are incapable of loving the hobby, the games and the mods you are here to discuss
>>128727631
That's fair, but I still say it's silly, It's on the same scale as giving Prince Edward Island independence as a puppet when it got responsible government in 1849, the nation is just so underpopulated and in all fairness irrelevant, just like Canada that there's no point representing it until its actually a united nation. Some abstractions are necessary especially with something as complicated as British relations to the commonwealth. That's just my opinion though, it's not like a minimod is being forced on me and if someone wants to make it good for them.
South Africa doesn't appear until the union.
Canada doesn't appear till Confederation.
Why should Australia be special?
>>128706717
Very close, my friend. Very close.
This is best map.
>>128727631
Responsible government is a poor metric for independence, like that other anon said the individual Canadian colonies all got it early on, Cape Colony and the other parts of South Africa got it long before the Boer War, it's just another part of the march to independence not the beginning of it.
>>128728434
What you are doing and what you are feeling isn't healthy. There is nothing wrong with having a hobby and being passionate about it. Some people are passionate about film. Then you have people who become obsessive fans of certain films and actors, who then become shut-ins and possible stalkers. When you take it too far, a hobby turns into an obsession.
This is what you are doing with HPM. Please, think of your own health.

>>128728478
Well I feel it should be modelled for two reasons:
1. Historical accuracy
2. More flavour for the region.
Currently nothing happens in Australia until three quartets of the way through the game, it is literally just a big red blob. This does nothing to represent the actual story of the region.
Furthermore, I would support Prince Edward Island being given substrate status in 1849 if it wasn't for it being so irrelevant, but Australia is a lot more relevant than a tiny island in Canada, currently Australia has literally no flavour whatsoever where as every other country, including Argentina is accurately represented, why does the game model the Argentine confederation but not the Australian states?
>>128728826
Say another bad thing about HPM and you'll be hanging from the gutters.
HPM guy is one of the greatest men of the 21st century and you people don't give him the reverence he deserves
>>128728621
other than königsberg and maybe alsace-lorraine this is basically 10/10
>>128728826
No anon, it's perfectly healthy. Loving your hobby and loving the things that integrate it are all parts of normal, functional human beings. Defending what you love is also a part of it, though it seems you consider calling out slander as "attacking" someone, which is pretty funny
What isn't healthy is obsessing what other people like anon. To the point of attacking them and what they like, to fake shit to attack, ironically shitposting. That kind of obsessive behavior, being so bothered someone likes what you don't like, that's something you should worry about
>>128728976

It's really not though, the only aspects Britain kept control of were foreign affairs and defence, this is the perfect example of a satellite.
And I've discussed the Cape Colony's responsible government with him, he said he would do it but it's fuck British colonisation in the region, it's the same reason Columbia doesn't get early responsible government, for the colonisation of Canada and such.

>>128728941
I agree the region desperately needs flavour, I'd especially like to see potential for New Zealand and Fiji to join federation. I just think seeing Western Australia as its own country on the pop with 10k pops is entirely a step too far, I'm also against the Kurdish minors though so whatever.

Like I already said, being passionate about your hobby is fine but being as obsessive as you are is slightly concerning.
>calling out slander
This is exactly the sort of stuff I'm talking about. You said before that you loved the mod, now you are backtracking by saying that you feel bound by your duty to defend the honour of the modder, as if he's incapable of defending himself.
Also
>attacking
You keep misusing that word. Criticising someone is not attacking. This further proves my point that your obsession with HPM is dangerously unhealthy. You view anything less than adoration as slander and a conspiracy to destroy the mod. Please, consider having a mental health check if you have the chance.
>>128729475

The choices are simulate it all, with Western Australia included or simulate none of it as it is currently until federation.
>>128729564
Ask yourself whether it's more important than shitty Kurdish minors.
>>128729592
Nah, obsession is when you start caring other people like what you don't like
That someone loves something
Obsession is pretending to be someone, shitposting and stirring drama about someone you don't like
>you are backtracking by saying that you feel bound by your duty to defend the honour of the modder,
Good thing no one said anything of the sort
Seeing as you think that calling out slander is some horrible thing, and seeing as the rest of your post is nothing but a big strawman, this discussion becomes rather pointless
Now anon, please, check that obsession you have with everything HPM related
When you start making up shit to criticize people who love a mod, well, there's something fucked up with you
>>128729771
I know, and that's why I say simulate none of it, or simulate it in a different way, the separate states are just too irrelevant on their own, especially considering how irrelevant a united Australia is in this game. Flavour is needed, more tiny substates that do nothing but get annexed by event to another country aren't.
>>128729771
It's about as important as shitty kurdish minors rebelling against a GP
I bet kurds played a bigger role in the world than australians
>>128730017
Kurds are playing a bigger role in the world today than Australians. The only thing Australians have done for the world is help in the First and Second Great Shitposting War
