1. Map/Scenario Editors: Game always saves data to the default game folders!

   If you are making a map/scenario, remember that the game never saves files to your mods/ folder! The game always saves data to the default game folders! Always copy all generated data from the game files to your mod files.

6. How to Create a Special Alliance

   I have noticed that there are two types of special alliances. 1. Holy Roman Empire 2. Defensive "Holy Roman Empire" type is used by Holy Roman Empire. (This makes sense) The Emperor joins the other member's wars and it can get buffs by reforming. If you make the last reform, the whole empire get united under your flag. "Defensive" type is used by Shogunate, so Japan. It's not as useful as Holy Roman Empire. There is no option to reform. But if someone attacks any member of the alliance, all members join to the war. In Holy Roman Empire, just the Emperor joins. But, I am curious that how I can add my own special alliance. I don’t mean editing the e…

7. Long loading of mod in Steam Workshop

   Hello, there was a problem with updating an existing mod in the steam workshop. The mod is about 1.8 GB in size and it takes an incredibly long time to load, despite having a fairly high internet connection. Maybe someone of you knows how to fix this problem? Previously there was a problem with a loading error, but I fixed it by changing the Changelog in the mod file. Is it worth waiting any longer? The mod number in the ID file is correct, I double-checked it in advance. By the way, if you really want to play AOH3 with music from HOI4, I recommend my mod :3 Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3354002600

10. is it possible to make the game run slower

    basically I made a map of 280bc with like too many tribes, I like realism, now the problem is that it's not realistically viable to make the Roman empire or Hellas in 300 years if you don't go insane so it takes away from rp, now is it possible to make the years go by slower? I already edited the time in ages, I was more wondering if I can go from 24 hours to 36 hours or so

11. Is it possible to remove portraits

    I feel like portraits hinder my ability to make a good ancient history mod, I can't find good portraits for all the cultures I have, nor do I have imperator so I can't ss leaders there, so I rather just get rid of the portraits in general, the focus is on the ancient world and statehood, I can add symbols for the general and advisor slots, but the leader portraits annoy me(as in finding suitable portraits) I tried an CK2 mod for the ancient world, the portraits look ok, but still not great, I rather just get rid of them

21. Multi letter government tags

    Lukasz, can you make it possible to use multiple letters in the extra tags category? Or at least make it possible for all unicode characters to work there? In AoH2 I had made a TNO mod, for some reason certain characters worked fine as tags on mobile but not on pc. If multiple letters are allowed then that whole issue will be bypassed. Even just two letters would massively increase the amount of tags that can be added.

24. Questions about the technology tree

    Is it possible to have techs require three pre-techs to unlock? Currently it's only possible to have a maximum of two frontends, which is completely insufficient for the tech tree I'm currently designing. Also, why can't the name of the tech be customized? He always automatically picks the building or unit that is unlocked by this tech as the name of the tech.
