tzmb 12 Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 maybe ahead of myself here but i really like the visitable locales feature and itd be cool to get maybe polling data for major cities in the future? The statewide total can be impacted by these as a weight as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daons 6 Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 Just an idea, Could we maybe have an option to give issues a party specific description as a way to distinguish between different parties who have the same issue alignment and reflect the manifestos. For example; Education: Centre-Left - Default - More funding for State education Education: Centre-Left - Labour - Labour will commit to investing £x bln to schools over the next parliament. Education: Centre-Left - Plaid Cymru - Education in the Welsh Language must be supported - Fund the provision of language teachers. Education: Centre-Left - Lib Dems - The Liberal Democrats will invest £x bln into further education and mental health for young adults. This wouldn't need to have any direct influence on the engine but just display different text. It could be similar to how there is a different candidate blurb if they start in the primaries or general election. You could specify it on the party basics screen as below?

BeetleJuice 57 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 I have ran into this bug multiple times. When the convention occurs, if I accidently click the "x" on the top right of the pop-up, then it becomes impossible to advance to the next turn. Is it possible to remove the "x"?

I've looked at the code, and there's no reason the 'x' button will function differently than the 'Ok' button on this - they call the same function. So the problem must be something else. Is this for your party's convention, or another party? If for yours, is it a contested convention? If not, have you chosen a VP? What campaign does this occur on?

Anthony_270 1,030 Posted January 7 Author Report Share Posted January 7 @BeetleJuice I also tried pressing the 'x' button during a convention, worked as normal. So the problem here is something more specific. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What campaign does this occur on? It has occurred with Kanye’s convention on the first update that added Kanye. Not sure if it still happens with the latest release.

Perhaps scenarios that have outright Independents should have (or have a flag in the editor so do to) their Convention activity turned off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OK, tried it as Yang, convention wasn't contested, but no problem pressing the 'x' button to go through the convention messages. My guess is this is something more specific. You say it became impossible to advance to the next turn. Would anything happen when clicking the Done Turn Button? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Again, if you can figure out how to get this error consistently, please let me know. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A quote about an idealized people who have never existed in our world - on the level of a "people," - and, given the current state of things, almost certainly won't in the foreseeable future. Quite, "pie in the sky thinking," even for PI quotes. :S Quote Link to post Share on other sites
