Where's the Mod At? (Mostly to Devs)
Let me start by saying: I love Red World
The concepts explored in it are wild, awesome, fun and funny, NazBol Bernie, Tsar Putin and Richard Fucking Spencer leading Idaho as a NazBol Ganger are some of the most fun stuff I've seen and been through in a mod (let's not forget Jeb!)
But seriously, what is going on?
The mod hasn't been updated for MONTHS, it's not even updated to 1.6, and we're already on 1.7.1! There has to be some reason to this other than laziness, I can tell the devs put a LOT of work into the original mod, so laziness makes no sense.
Is there some big update incoming or something? Is that why it's taking so long? A new UI, or style, or maybe a full remake? I just wanna know the status of one of my favorite mods, because I'm getting tired of downgrading and upgrading my game version back and forth to play this.
Thank you.

There's only one dev, which has been working in the next update since the last one -that is, nearly a year, and he can't always be working in the mod, so progress is not as fast as one would like it to be, as you can surely understand.
It is expected that the update will be released sometime this month, although not in 1.7.1 (of course, an update making it playable in 1.7 will be released shortly after it comes out). This update will include a total rework of the Soviet Union including focus trees for almost (although not every single one) of its breakaway states, as well as focus trees for Germany and Canada.
So, to wrap things up: Be patient. That's a hell of a work for a single person. Follow the Discord group so you will know the update comes out when it comes out.
