BUG? constitution change

[unmerged(30385)]

Hi!

I encountered several problems making Austria into a democracy. Although I had all parties allowed, universal suffrage, free press, all unions allowed I didn´t get the 'constitution change' event. :wacko: With Bavaria and Belgium it triggered 1 week after I had universal suffrage and the parties allowed.

I´m not sure if its a bug or if I´m not seeing some problem. I also had as only party until the end the Metternich faction which should stop existing in 1848.

I´m using 1.03 patch (I checked the german and english patches, for I installed the game first in German afterwards in English), so if someone can help I would be quite glad.

Hi!

Were you a constitutional monarchy? You cannot change from a Con.Mon to a democracy by enacting reforms.

Why not? How can you become a Democracy when You are a constitutional monarchy? It seems, this then is something, that has nothing to do with the bugs at all.

Sorry to bother you, but I didn´t play that much, and I find the manual isn´t that great a help that I want it to be.

You can only become a democracy if you are a Con.Mon. via a revolution and no it isn't a bug.

edit: As to why you can't go to Democracy via a Con.Mon. it is probably that historically most Con.Mons have stayed Con.Mons. and not become Republics. Perhaps the option to move from Con.Mon to Democracy might be nice, but it certainly shouldn't be automatic if you institute some reforms. Just my opinion though.

It is never a bother, I wouldn't post if it was

Try reading Memnon's manual avaliable [here]. The rest of the site is extremely useful as well.

Interesting, although at least it should have worked out, that the parties changed. In 1920 Metternich was still in charge, although he then was dead for 70 years. Also I thought, that if I change the party-system to "all parties allowed", all possible parties should be available. (and I checked, there is more than the Metternich faction possible in Austria).

Greetings and thanks for the help
