Hey Doomdark, excellent work on the IGC 1.9... I read through the readme file and am truly awed by all the changes in there! I really wish Paradox will incorporate 95% of all the IGC changes into the regular GC. :D

However, I have a couple of suggestions, which in all likelihood have already been suggested, but I'd like to hear your feedback:

1) New country of Korea (Choson) in the provinces of Kyongju and Yalu. Creating a leader file for them shouldn't be too hard either (I can help). This would make the Asian sphere more realistic and more politically dynamic as well.

2) Increased fortifications throughout China & Japan, to reflect the immense historical difficulty in conquering those two countries. No asian province was ever besieged by European powers historically, but in the GC several European powers can annex all of China in a year.
 
We would like to add Korea, but we have run out of usable country tags. We are at a point where adding new nations means scrapping old ones. As for fortifications in China and Japan, it has been discussed before. Personally I wouldn't mind bumping them up a little.
 
The new Config Tool is great! Is there a description somewhere of the various options - i.e., what "Super Hansa" or "Free Ireland" does exactly? I know those who have follwed these discussions for awhile know what these mean, but a description would be helpful for those who haven't. Thanks.

I see... well, I'd like to see the option of at least having Korea as an option, especially since some of the other countries you've introduced didn't exist in their time period and are really marginal powers (Novgorod, Greece). Yet Korea existed independently a full 100 years before EU began (1392).

However, I understand that this game is EUROPA Universalis, so I guess emphasis should be on Europe. Although, now that you have your cool IGCConfig, it'd be nice to be able to set that as an option (e.g. "Which of the following countries would you like to be used with the last country tag we have available?").

Hehe, put this on an IGC wishlist I guess. Plus I can help.
 
I'd like to see Holland as a choosable country for the IGCConfig utility. The game will crash if you start as holland, BUT when holland does appear it will be non-annexable.
 
Holland is a choosable country in the IGCConfig (if you set the "Free Netherlands" option). Are you saying that it cannot be selected without crashing? If so, I will have to fix that.
 
I have to hit the space bar

each time I start a game with the IGC tool. It hangs when I click on "IGC" as the scenario choice and then I hit space bar and all is well again.
