the thing is i only have this, community framework, half construction cost, add war goals (mid-war), and power blocs expanded enabled, non of which affect politics as far as i am aware

@1940's BMW remove other mods that change politics

i got no idea what is going on, if im like bugged or if this is intended, but im just like perma locked at god aweful legitmacy. Ive already tried to run the game twice, both times ideological compatability has been so low that even if the democrats win the election, it is better to have the republicans in government. But then it gets to the point either party can no longer do anything because legitimacy gets near 0 (democrats always do) and i just cant do anything about it.

@Ser. Meesy Ice vanilla bug that auto-removes the obsession regardless of the amendment

I only have your mods enabled and the topbar framework and the Dixie/Yankee cultures lose thier Obsessions with small arms when i unpause, is that expected behaviour?

Added in historical Moroccan-American relations. Top tier mod

Does anyone know if this works with Patria Grande? I'd love for the whole continent to have more flavor but I imagine the province changes from Hail Columbia could be disruptive.

@CaelReader:

Congrats on adding the Spanish American War in, adding to the current new DLC.

I hope we'll eventually get a Zimmerman telegraph and 'Over There' set of events too.

:)
Thanks for continuing to work on your mod.

Ah okay in that case, mod works perfectly!

Side note I love the changes you made to early game - the tax and eco law adjustment makes you properly feel like early USA, severely lacking in central authority. Well done!

@Starlancer working as designed

I do have a bug report for the Mormon event chain - in the option where I can accept the mormons, create the Utah territory, or demand they stop polygamy, I chose the last option, and after getting the refusal nothing happened after. I had to annex them manually

@MafiaBrett huh? The event chain is Missouri war, killing of Joseph Smith, exodus, then deseret appears.

Question, is there anyway I can ensure the Mormons move to Utah and set up the Deseret state? Maybe its just extremely bad luck but in a few games I had, Joseph either dies or decides to leave the USA before the event to mass migrate to Utah

@p0xus thanks, easy enough to fix for the next patch

Wanted to share a bug I found in the event 40 Acres and a Mule

When the event for me fired, I did not have a leader with the radical ideology active, and so the radical redistribution option was disabled. Before selecting an option, I gave leadership to a leader with the ideology and selected the radical option.

The amendment was not added to the law because the section of code saving relevant leaders in scope had already happened, and thus no sponsor was set for the amendment.

@trupizza yea on 1.11 the set state name overwrote the adjective on top but now in 1.12 it doesn't, so you also get things like "Columbia Southern Columbia"

The localization for the new Aroostook region comes out as "New Brunswicker Aroostook" which leads to some funny titles in the events. It is probably bottom of the priority list but I figure the intended event name is "The Aroostook War" and not "The New Brunswicker-Aroostook War" lol

@VSterminator7 1. Theodore Roosevelt needs dedicated content around his administration, and I'd like to at some point add the Dust Bowl and Great Depression as end-game crises

2. Some kind of Party Nomination system in democracies where not necessarily the highest-clout IG gets elected as the president. Vice Presidents would be nice (usa version of head of state vs head of government split). Guerrilla Warfare as an actual mechanic would be much better at representing the Indian Wars.

Just want to say I really appreciate the work you do for this mod! Never start a USA game without it. Just a couple of questions I had if you'd like to answer them

1. What are some of the plans you have ahead for the mod in 2026?

2. If PDX could implement a system/tool in their next DLC that you think would really help you as a developer, what would it be?

@Nevloz disable all other mods that might be editing party definitions

Already have it

@Nevloz install the Community Mod Framework

After the newest update there are duplicate parties, Two whigs and two democrats.

is it just me or whenever i try to annex texas it crashes my game

I've pushed a hotfix that should annex the CSA if they're incorrectly leftover after losing the war

@mmrashidzada is there a tiny one-province state version of the CSA still existing in Texas? that's a vanilla bug with revolutions unfortunately

Hi great mod. For some reason, when you defeat the confederates, you still get the event chain that the Union loses even though you've annexed the CSA, preventing the reconstruction JEs from launching.

Holy update guess it's time for yet another playthrough

Beautiful mod

Found a typo in the Creek Removal event from the start of the game. The flavor text says "-for they were yet to young to participate..." the 'to' should be 'too'

@Calvin "Freckle" McMurray click "Change Notes" at the top of the page

Hey could you make a thread that is just listing the changes in each update?

I’ve submitted a new pull request for the updated Korean translation. Please take a look.

I'm stuck basically in a US where the slave trade is restored in all states, the abolitionist movement no longer exists, and yet there is still "a house divided" maakes 0 sense,

Hey, love this mod but I have massive issue, I can't complete A House Divided on the slavery side, because I easily suppress the abolitionist movement. You have 3 options, ban slavery and removal journal entry, have slavers revolt and remove entry, have abolitionists revolt and remove entry. My problem is I easily suppress the abolitionists into non-existence, therefore they never revolt, I restore the slave trade (in landowner playthrough), and now I'm stuck with the journal entry. Please add a completion option (with its own buffs and debuffs or whatever) to remove the journal entry if you remove never have civil war and the slavers reattain societla control. I'm stuck now.

@시아츠 feel free to submit translations as pull requests on github https://github.com/CaelReader/Hail--Columbia-

Hello Developer, I’ve taken over from the previous Korean translator and have completed the Korean translation for this mod 100%. I’d like to have it implemented in the mod—where should I send the translation files?

@erikbalens no

Is it possible to get British Columbia from GB peacefully?

Made an German translation mod. Feel free to link it:

@Fixiwee you can download previous versions of the mod from github: https://github.com/CaelReader/Hail--Columbia-

Hey there, love the mod! I want to start a new USA run but I am afraid that the upcoming spain update will mess up my run. Is it possible to reroll the mod to the current version after 11th Dez?

@kindum looks like there's already a couple languages of Hail Columbia as projects on there. I can't really verify the quality of any translation efforts but feel free to set up a German one if you like.

Did you ever think about making a paratranz project for Hail Columbia? (i for example could supoort german translation)

@ChincillaZoo£23 I assume any politics overhaul mod is going to overwrite the party definitions which will break all the HC-specific setup for the american parties.

Hey Cael, are there any politics overhaul mods that are compatible with Hail Columbia?

@Coalsack yes Spanish-American war stuff is in the docket for future content.

I basically figure that the adam-onis border would not actually hold up under western settlement, and I consider province editing out of scope for the mod.

Two things, first, do you have plans for content regarding the Spanish-American war in the mid-late game (1898) and the potential anexion of Cuba, Dominana and the Philippines? Specially since the new DLC seemigly will add some Spanish content.

Second, once the main USA and CSA content is done, do you plan to make some "alternate" focuses. Say, if USA loses the Mexican-American war, to focus it attention on securing the Pacific Northwest and/or the Caribbean, the transcontinental railway changing focuses based on the first scenario, instead of going to, California, as in the default scenario, going to Cascadia/Oregon.

On the same vein of alternate scenario, one thing I always overlap with your mod is this thing https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3280805066 to get the Adams-Onis border from 1819-1846 right. But the mod is abandoned afaik, so I think you could alter the provinces shape around Oklahoma, Colorado, Wyoming and Kansas to adjust the border.

Just want to say that as a fan of American history, this mod is awesome. Reminds me a lot of Vic 2 GFM's flavor content for America (which I really enjoyed). Great work!

@Hamarhofud Only once the USA is content complete
