Don't get too excited, this isn't a map editor.
Nudge! : If debug mode is enabled, then the title screen of HOI4 features a big button named 'Nudge!' The Nudge tool is a very buggy tool that allows you to see the map in different nudgers and make minor modifications to it. If you are playing on a computer, where is not available the method described above, you can also run the basic game, checking in a world, and open the control panel, then typing the debug command, which instantly turns the game in debug mode. In Debug mode you get some extra information regarding focuses and ideas, and you can also CTRL+ALT over a province to get province IDs and state IDs. It also includes helpful 'errors' to protect against faulty game design, such as when a state has multiple air zones. These errors could for example be that a keyword was unrecognized withing your files or that there were compile errors in some of your files.
Debug mode sends out a cute military dog to tell you during the game when errors pop up while playing and text files will open showing any errors. The following tools can help with modding HOI4 :ĭebug Mode : Go to properties -> set launch options in steam and add '-debug' to enable debug mode.
