Ladder Season 2 Begins
- Ladder rankings reset on July 16, 2024
- Your best Season 1 ranking can still be showcased using the distinct Season 1 and Season 2 badges
Level Cap Raised to 100
- Various cosmetic rewards added for levels 50 to 100 (Badges, Avatars, Banners, Titles, Pets)
One More Turn...
- Players can now choose to continue playing after a single-player game ends
- This will not affect your challenge scores, Hegemon scores, or your level progress
- Game balance and performance may suffer as the game continues beyond its intended length
Retry Button
- Challenge players can rejoice in only having to click 1 Retry button to restart a challenge or any other Single Player game
- Retrying a Daily Challenge will count as a challenge attempt
- Using the Retry button will use the same map generation seed for skirmish games
Data Collection for Next-Gen AI
- We're collecting information on player behavior to experiment with creating a new AI
- This data is automatically collected in multiplayer games but is by default not collected during single-player
- If you wish to help us out, it can be enabled for single-player in the game menu. Be aware that this could result in a large amount of data being sent to our servers so is not recommended on a metered network connection
- This is experimental and in the extremely early stages - it may not lead to a better AI
New Achievements
- Beloved - Get 25 We Love You points. Rewards: The Beloved title and Bald Eagle pet
- Woodchuck - Control 10 lumbermills. Reward: Beaver pet
- Polar Super Power - Control 5 tundra hexes. Reward: Penguin pet
Multiplayer Game Technical Log
- A technical log file is now available after a multiplayer game which can be used to discern what actions the other human players took during the game
- On Windows the files are located at: C:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\Main Tank Software\Hexarchy\player_stats_.json
- This contains statistics about the game in JSON format - you may need a technical background to make use of it
Misc / Fixes
- Can now view previous challenge results without completing the current challenge
- Warship now correctly gives a Victory Point like Catapult and Cannon
- Fixed the Daily Challenge screen Discord button
