P.S. I think I found something odd again while testing Serbia - they are not in the EU anymore, which is correct, but they have NATO Membership on level 'substantial contributions' (middle of the slider). Wikipedia states: "Although current Serbian priorities do not include NATO membership, the Alliance offered Serbia an invitation to enter the intensified dialogue programme in 2008 whenever the country was ready." So per your discretion, NATO Membership should either be completely scrapped or toned down to the minimum which is labeled 'Partnership' (but IMO I still believe the policy should not be implemented at all - "4.02.2023 г. — Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said late Friday his country is going through the EU membership and integration process but does not want to join NATO."
Bulgaria is slated to be added in update 82.5.
Will remove Serbia from NATO. Should be part of the next update.
India and Iran have varying degrees of Gay Marriage policy on start. While India IRL is swinging on the matter (so policy with value of 0 might be acceptable), Iran is strictly against gay marriages and in some cases, even applies death penalties for gay relationships (which means gay marriage is absolutely out of the question). So in my game, I edited out gay marriage completely from Iran. With regards to India, I believe as of 2023 their Supreme Court still hasn't legalized gay marriages, so a policy value of 0 is maybe appropriate, or deleting it altogether. I understand some of those policies may be in place to make the game more challenging, but at least to me, they don't seem very realistic and there should be other ways to make those countries more challenging.
* On a side note, Religious Membership percentages in India and Iran seem to me a bit off. While India should have a high religious population, 100% seems a bit excessive - my online search showed surveys reporting around 81-82% of the Indian population consider themselves 'religious'. Regarding Iran, I'm not sure how the original mod files were adjusted, but I believe religious membership was quite low for an Islamic Shariah country such as Iran, so in my game I changed it to 93%. While official Iranian government data claims 100% Islamic religious population, it's highly unlikely in this day and age absolutely everyone there is highly religious. Even 90% is not realistic in real-life, but in game mechanic terms, I wanted to somehow stimulate the role of religious doctrines, Islamic law and official Islamic morals in present-day Iran, so at ~90% Religious Membership seems about right for me. Of course, goes without saying all this is purely your decision as the mod creator/developer, but I still wanted to share my thoughts and views about it.
As for the religious population, I also used sources on the web, but it's not that easy to just put a value sadly, it's overly complicated, or at least I haven't yet understood how to set the right value (since I haven't tried to), either way, will lower those values, and increase Iran's.
Thank you for all the feedback, don't be shy to drop more.
[override]
TargetName = "Religious_freq"
HostName = "Religious_freq"
Equation = "0.54+(0.06*x)"
Inertia = 0
Changing the Equation value to this one above, especially the first one (0.54) seemed to do the trick. The value in the brackets also changes the overall percentage somewhat, but very negligible. I just increased/lowered as much as needed, but had to reload the 'mission' every time after changing to check the results.
For India, I tried to change values in more_religious file in 'scripts' folder but I couldn't make it work.. So I just copied the Iran majorreligouspopulation file in the India override folder and then changed it to this :
[override]
TargetName = "Religious_freq"
HostName = "Religious_freq"
Equation = "0.25+(0.03*x)"
Inertia = 0
With these values, I managed to get Iran to ~97% Religious Membership and India at ~82% (as far as I remember). Of course I didn't mean to imply you haven't checked those percentages beforehand, maybe you just didn't have time to fiddle with the values enough to get them to these numbers. Also it's clear percentages like those are subjective, but like I said before, I'd like to see in my game a VERY religious Iran to simulate the Islamic regime there and a 'predominant' religious population in India to simulate the impact of the deep roots Hindu (and other) religion has on Indian society. From there, the player IMO has enough policies to change things, but it should be very difficult to uproot religion in countries like Iran or say, Pakistan.
Thanks for appreciating the feedback, as I play more countries, I'll be sure to give more info on different aspects of the mod. I'm currently playing North Korea and everything looks right so far. I also played China, Vietnam, Brazil. I think I also increased Religious percentage in Brazil (same way as above) which made an interesting voter mix and challenge, since Brazil is mostly Liberal at the start, AFAIR.
Can't wait for the new update with (hopefully) Bulgaria included! Keep up the good work!
Aside from that, awesome mod, the best for Democracy 4!
