What I wanted to do was subtract percentages using that same option, but apparently it does not read the numbers inputed (like -25) as negative, but positive, thereby increasing his support instead. Is there any way to do this? Sorry I did not respond right away

Question: can you add to their percentages by putting in positive numbers? Hi James,

If you want bonuses or penalties based on specific candidates, then you would have to do it through the candidate bonuses.

Question: can you add to their percentages by putting in positive numbers?

Therefore, I wanted, according to their political views, increase support in some states, while decrease it in other states. However, for some reason I cannot remove support through the bounuses as I though I could by inputing a negative number. Is there any way to do something similar with the desired result?

For a workaround, you can directly edit the XML file (parties.xml) in your scenario folder with a text editor (such as Notepad), and set the correct value. Hi Chris,

I feel like these might be bugs in the program...? And also, I tried giving a leader a home political region manually, by opening up the document in Microsoft Word, and when I tried to open him up in the game he was back to no home region.

Whenever I have to input a political region, either for the convention or for a candidate's home region, the program doesn't seem to appropriately register my choice. Specifically, it puts all my Vice-Leaders and conventions onto the last country on my list, and it simply puts a blank on my Leaders, which causes an error and prevents me from finishing the scenario. What on earth is going on?
