Post patch 1.5 Bug List

9) Some techs, like Interchangable Parts, become available for research before the prerequisite techs have been learened.

10) The diplomatic penality "Territorial Expansion" still does not decrease if you lose or give away territories. This creates a situation where, if you help your ally recapture of one their regions, and at the end of the battle you have the larger force, you'll get the region. You'll get a penalty for taking the region. If you give the region to your ally. You'll continue to suffer the diplomatic penalty for taking a region you no longer control. There is also no diplomatic credit for giving the region to an ally. In the end, your ally will like you less for helping him recapture a region and then giving it to him free of charge.

11) There seems to be a problem with how the AI values land swap deals. As GB, I was helping my ally the Ottomans by retaking regions they lost to the Prussians. I retook Turkey, Iraq, and several smaller regions. When I tried to trade Turkey for Egypt, or Iraq for Egypt, the Ottomans refused. When I sweetened the deal with 6 techs and 20,000 gold, they still didn't agree. Turkey + 6 Techs + 20,000 gold is definitely worth Egypt.

12) There also seems to be a problem with how the AI values protectorate offers. The AI used to make seemingly rational decisions prior to 1.4. I could offer ~5,000 / turn for 20 turns or less and get nearly any nation as a protectorate. Post 1.4 (or at least 1.5) I can't get a protectorate to save my life. I've offered 20,000 gold at once + several techs, or 5,000 gold over 20 turns (100,000 gold!) + several techs, and none of the nations took my offer. These offers were made to nations that were Friendly towards my nation as well. That seems outrageously irrational, which is why I'm listing it here as a bug.

Two things:
Try deleting your script folder (in the application data folder)
Remove any traces of mod files from your data directory. ALL of them. Every single last one. You'll have to put them back in a few at a time to figure out which ones aren't compatible, or wait for 1.5 versions to come out.

ETW region income is messed up. I was Spain and completed the New Spain mission and after they joined me - I went from making 2000/year to -200/year. What on earth!?!?! What about all those gold mines I got?!?!

Cotton plantations seem to disappear. At least as Pueblos in the Warpath campaign.
Jalisco Mines in New Spain cannot be occupied by troops. They're impassable terrain.

Beylik Janissary Musketeers are not given Platoon fire in Late-era custom battles.

Line infantry and elite infantry do not use rank fire and platoon fire when defending against frontal cavalry attacks. Instead, only the front row fires. I understand how this could be superior to platoon fire, but this is strictly inferior to rank fire.

Lancers sometimes still charge with their lances held in the air shortly before impact.

Gorodskiye Streltsy still deal death blows with the blunt end of their 2h axes.

If you order a melee infantry unit to attack a pikemen unit in custom battle mode, the pikemen unit will walk back a bit and then form a pikewall...in the opposite direction of the enemy.

There is no platoon or rank fire against cavalry. As far as I know this is not a bug.

I think they put back the heavy administrative penalties on each region gained.

Reduce them or take them out.

The economy is getting as depressed as it was in 1.2, it makes for a poor gaming experience.

I have to mod my save games to stay above water.
