Summary​

The "Colony" type subject tooltip incorrectly talks about "colonies" as in places you are colonizing

Description​

Tooltips seem to be set based on a key that is either the literal word or linked to the word, so because there are two concepts called "Colony" the subject type colony gets the tooltip for the province type colony.
At least that what it seems to be to me

Steps to reproduce​

Boot up as GB, hover over the word "colony" in the subject tab

It's worth noting that I think this means you can't currently see anywhere in game a description of what it actually means to be a colony subject

There are a couple tooltips with the correct link, but it does need fixing for sure

Oh really? That's interesting - blows my theory that it's tied to the name or some other name related key then

Which out of interest?

Looking at the files, it looks like mainly a number of diplomacy localizations. Anyway, it definitely should be checked over in all locations.

Do you mean this?

Followed down this just goes back to the same incorrect tooltip

Hm, ironic that the main listing gives the wrong tooltip. I think it's either a internal code issue, where autogenerated tooltips point to the wrong thing, or a UI scripting issue, all of the scripted localization appears to have the correct references.
