So here is how I export my mod
I have a focus tree that makes a new focus tree for the US, I have the tag as USA 
it's 8 focues,

now this is how the exact way I exported the mod
I clicked export on the mod that had the focus tree
I used winrar to export the file, 
opened up the hoi 4 launcher and made a mod, did the version the same as the games, Then dragged the 
Common, gfx, interface, localisation, in the mod folder that was made, also the descriptor file was in there too, 
loaded the launcher and enabled the mod, and only that mod, and It did not work, the vanilla US focus tree was there
what am I doing wrong?

If you run the game in debug mode, do you get any errors?

If you run the game in debug mode, do you get any errors?

The issue seems to be because there's a couple of errors in your focus tree. When the game encounters an error in a file, it will stop loading the file at the point it reached (meaning only some of a focus tree may load) or in some cases ignore the file entirely.

In your focus "Stroke" you have the reward:

has_political_power > 100

This can only be used in the "available" box, or by using inside a limit statement, e.g.

if = {

    limit = {

        has_political_power > 100

    }

    add_political_power = 100

    else = {

        add_political_power = -100

    }

}

Also in the focus "Shit too many strokes!"

You have the reward:

add_extra_state_shared_building_slots = {

add_extra_state_shared_building_slots = 30 

}

The first one needs to be a state selector, e.g.

123= {... or random_owned_controlled_state = { ...

Okay thanks, this will help me finish i hope
