So instead of making a bunch of posts, ill just make one big post, hopefully that's okay. (For reference all of the issues listed can be found my Tea Drinker mod https://edge.hoi4modding.com/mod/7321#countries)

1. Upside down flags. I remember reading something about working on fixing this in the dev updates, but if there is any temporary fix that be great to know.

2. Incorrect start ideology. For my New England nation, it is supposed to start as "Neutrality" but despite being labeled as this it starts as a Democratic Nation.

3. States cored and controlled, but void on map.  For example, Mexico is set to have all its states cored and controlled, however when exported it will act as if no country is assigned to it.

4. Arguably one of the biggest thorns in my side, focuses not appearing. I have made a huge portion of the tree for Austria Hungary, however, when exported 4 focuses may load out of the 43.

I appreciate any help given, and sorry for the large post of a bunch of issues instead of a little more focused one. If needed, I can elaborate on any of the issues.

1) This shouldn't be happening any more. And I have never been able to replicate, unfortunately. 

Could you provide me with the original flag file uploaded, if you are still having this issue after your next export (a few things have been changed with image exports)?

2) I can't see any reason in the files why it shouldn't be neutral. Could you run the game in debug mode, and share the error log?

3) As with 2, everything seems to be correct. A look at the error log will help figure out the issue (I'd assume certain countries, such as Mexico, not loading due to an error)

4) This is another case of needing the error log. When the game encounters an error when loading a focus tree, it will stop loading the rest of the file; even if the only error in the file is in the first focus.

EDIT:

From a quick look at Austria's tree, the focus "Promises of the Revolution" needs some formatting on the reward.

}set_party_name = { 

Is invalid. You need a space or new line adding between the } and set...

As a fix for upside down flags, I think using something like this https://pinetools.com/flip-image and flip it vertically it should work if you simply replace the original flag with the upside down one. That seems to work just fine with me.
