Quick questions OS:win 10 HOI4 version:1.10.2 Kaiserreich version:0.15.1

Explanation of the issue: The first eastern European country that Russia defeated was usually Ukraine.As long as Russia defeats Ukraine until it surrenders, Austria will join the war. But Austria’s performance in the war was very poor, often failing to defend the Alps, which accelerated the end of the war. Austria’s early participation in the war would accelerate Germany’s defeat. Steps to reproduce: No.

It seems that the first modifier will not work in time. I suggest that Austria can send more volunteers to Germany until before joining the war. Screenshots:

I'm not sure what you mean here - do you want Austria to... not join the war?

[Rylock]

I think maybe he's saying that the first modifier on the ai_will_do makes it so that Austria waits until Germany's at 30% surrender to use this decision - meaning that, despite the other conditions, Germany is already too far gone for Austria's participation to help. I'll drop it to 10%.
