2 years ago This happens in every save game. All saves of newer Paradox games begin with a single token identifying what game and format it is saved in, here "EU4txt". This causes the warning because it isn't a key-value pair like the entire rest of the file. E.g. the first few lines of the file might look like:
EU4txt
date=1748.1.1
save_game="Sweden1701_09_04_v1_30.eu4"
player="SWE"
displayed_country_name="Sweden"It shouldn't keep the editor from continuing to run. Are you encountering other issues?

Everything seems to be going fine up until this point - I can't for the life of me put my finger on the issue, though I'm by no means an expert.
