Russia could use a new UB, such as Kremlin or Krepost, which gives extra

Right. Continue to stick to previous revisions if you want stability and a balanced game.

But then Central Planning and Egalitarianism (or whatever it's called now) are OP too since they have more or less the same effects (hammers > espionage).
Right. In fact, even in original version, state property is already OP. The point is, communism has no drawback in this game, except no corporation, which is not that important. This is unreal. In recent DoC we still get corporation with central planning, and without drawbacks like corruption or waste or stability penalty, why switch to other civics? That means no post-communism crisis.
But if we add drawbacks, it might discourage people to play. So, what late-game challenge do we want to have? With longer and longer waiting time, I seldom play past 1800 now. I feel no new challenge with early civs.

I think that adopting communism civics should cause the Iron Curtain effect, whereby only other civs with Communism can have trade routes with you.
I have seldom played past 1800 for quite some time.

I like the idea! That would nerf communism a bit and it's interesting.
I really want to start a new game, but as I use to update svn everytime I can see that now there's no stability, so as far as I see I'll have to wait until 1.12 is released. I don't know if it's possible to reverse to previous svn though.

In the context menu under TortoiseSVN... you'll find the option "Update to Revision" where you can select any revision you want.
Stability might return soon, but it probably will experience some problems initially as I balance the involved numbers.

Could you make it so Poland settles Wilno/Vilnius 1N of its currently settled tile (2N1E of Krakow, on the horse), on the wheat? Not only is that more historical, it is also less crowded with Krakow.

I'm not convinced that this is enough of a detracting factor.

I'm inclined to agree. Perhaps bring back the +% trade route value for free market? I suppose it's all merely speculation until we see what Leoreth is cooking for corporations.

But the game is so lacking in spices.
Literally.

You could downgrade to a previous SVN revision. 351 or 354 is the last 'stable' version, IIRC.
New commit to make the game even less playable!
Seriously though, this revision includes a first iteration of the new stability algorithm. Stability still has no effect, i.e. no collapses or changes of stability levels, instead your score in the five categories is printed in one of these annoying popup messages whenever a check is performed. In case you're interested.
I'm already quite happy with the resulting numbers (in case of the possible range, I haven't investigated whether they actually appropriately reflect the civ in question), except in the expansion category. Most of the test autoplays were 3000 BC Korea starts which means that most civs still stay in their core. Occasionally Greece showed a three digit negative score though so there is definitely still room for improvement.
Obviously don't update if you actually want to play.
