Early Access Release #8 (Version: 0.9.7936.18766)
New Functionality:
- Production Summary Screen - This screen lets you see at a glance what your country is producing, and the relative resource costs being spent to produce each item
- Added war Theater to region tooltip. Since each theater has its own depot, I felt this was information that was useful to the player, that wasn't available.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed bug where AI was upgrading player's units without consent. The player should be responsible for all unit upgrade decisions.
- USA AI in the Mediterranean got derailed if Germany made early conquest of England.
- Fixed USA AI issue stalling against Japanese mainland invasion
- Resources Report was showing "-1" for enemy values when spy report was unavailable. Should have been displaying "?"
Tuning:
- Increased supply consumption from from 1 to 1.25 for attacking units. Idle units remain at .5 and unit in defensive combats remain at 1
- Increased espionage team cost from $100,000 to $1,000,000
- Increased Russian winter attrition from 5% to 10%
- Increased Russian winter defense bonus from 10% to 25%
- Added 10% mother Russia defense bonus for USSR home regions (not satellite, like Ukraine)
- Some unit specs were adjusted to make upgrades feel more like upgrades. The specs for each tech level were patterned after historical units, however, in some cases the improved attributes are not directly modeled in the game. So, in-game attributes have been tweaked to ensure that the upgrade reflects the improvement that would have been historically felt in battle.
