Where should one post bugs in the 1.42 beta?

Anyway, here's two:

1) major_hab event 179113 Maximilian's Residence needs a country statement.

2) This from my savegame history section:
"November 6, 1509 : Spain went with ACTIONNAME7156A in Supremacy in North Africa. " Looks like the text is screwed up, but I haven't identified the event.

I had this one too. The text is listed in text.csv but the entry before only has nine ";" instead of ten, that's why it isn't read.
 
Another 1.42 bug - maybe more an oddity than a bug. This is from my latest savegame history:

Code:
[color=white]name = "January 27, 1431 : René I d'Anjou rose to the throne in Lorraine." 
        name = "January 27, 1431 : René I d'Anjou rose to the throne in Lorraine."
[/color]


Anyone know why Rene acends the throne twice? I've noticed this is several games under 1.42 now - he's always mentioned twice.
 
I believe it is because of this command in the relative events....
Code:
[COLOR=red]command = { type = monarch which = 04981 } #René d'Anjou
[/COLOR]

He is not a dormant monarch, so he ascends to the throne and the event command causes him to ascend again.
 
Maybe that's it then - I noticed the double ascencion with some of the other monarchs involved in the Anjou-Naples-Lorraine series also.

Is the monarch command really necessary if the monarch in question is not dormant? Won't a non-dormant monarch happen automatically?


New thing - in a handsoff game I got this entry:

Code:
[color=white][quote]name = "January 1, 1446 :  rose to the throne in Bohemia."
[/color][/quote]

I assume this is was supposed to be the Bohemian diet, but I have no idea why it failed to show the name. There were no other Bohemian monarch messages until this one:

Code:
[color=white][quote]name = "August 30, 1526 : Ferdinand I rose to the throne in Bohemia."
[/color][/quote]
 
Urrgh... the monarch entry for Bohemian diet is missing a dash:
historicalmonarch = {
id = { type = 6 id = 18751 }
name = "Bohemian Diet"
startdate = { year = 1446 }
enddate = { day = 23 month = november year = 1457}
DIP = 3
ADM = 4
MIL = 5
}

You are right. He ascends when the event makes him ascend, and then from his listing in the monarch file again. He was put into the events like that so you should see what monarchs you got when you took the option a. The option b wakes the dormant alternative monarchs and Havard thought it nice that you should see the name of the real line as well when you were about to chose. So it's better discribed event chioces vs double ascension.

Btw, the two earlier bugs you listed Count Six made it into the 1.4.2. Crook has said he'll do the installer for tomorrow, so now it's really closed. But the beta shouldn't be far away, right?
 
IIRC correctly (earlier in this thread i think)
the problem is that Ile de France/Paris should be the capital from the start

I don't see why Paris should be the capital from the beginning, when it IRL wasn't? Why not correct the trigger that moves Paris when the 100 year war is over?

Playing with EEP 1.4 I saw Paris owned by England or Burgundy ( it seems to be a rare case, but a weak France can happen sometimes ) : AFAIK there are no failsafes in the EEP 1.4.1 in that situation, but I didn't play EEP 1.4.1 as extensively as the EEP 1.4 .

BTW having the capital in Paris at the beginning of the game in 1 January 1419 is not that historically inaccurate, at least from what I gathered from discussions on the subject here on this board ;) .

The problem was, as I remember it, that not having the capital in Paris made it possible for England to claim Ile de France in a peace deal. That wasn't what we wanted to happen.

Isn't it the opposite?

I mean, if Paris is not the capital of France then England is always claiming it in a peace deal.

Maybe the reason is that occupying the capital England gets too many plus in peace deals and France is more likely to accept.

If this is true, can't we get around it modyfying something in the setup scenario?

Err... no. The actual point of not having the capital in Paris was to allow England or Burgundy to get it in a peace, since that is what - roughly - happened historically. Paris was in English/Burgundian hands for about 20 years. The problem with it was that the capital did not get moved back because the line in the End of the Hundred Years War that was supposed to move the capital had a #. Certainly a better solution wold have been a separate event that just moves the capital back as soon as Ile-de-France has been recaptured, or if France still owns it after 1430.
 
Like this, for instance:

Code:
[color=white]## Return to Paris ##

event = {
id = 999003
trigger = {
	owned   = { province = 385 data = FRA }
}
random = no
country = FRA
name = "The Return to Paris"
desc = "In May 1418 a Burgundian coup d'etat, an episode in the long Burgundian-Armagnac feud, drove the Dauphin from Paris.  He and his court fled south to the Loire, where he established himself as the "King of Bourges", and waited for better days.  At last, after nineteen years, the English and Burgundians were driven out and Charles VII returned victorious to the ancient capital." 
style = 1
date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1429 }
deathdate = { day = 31 month = december year = 1560 }

action_a ={	#Move the capital#
name = "Vive le Roi!"
command = { type = capital   which = 385 }
}
}
[/color]
 
I just noticed a bug in event 322005 (Alsace mortgaged to Burgundy). Currently the trigger is:
trigger = { owned = { 374 data = -1 }}

which means the event never happens. It ought to be
trigger = { owned = { province = 374 data = -1 }}
