This is a small patch that brings in the new guided stage tutorial. It also has a few small fixes / changes.
Content
- There was an issue when starting a AAA game with game set to paused that would prevent the transition to the board room when you resumed. It will now force un pause you and proceed with the transition.
- There was an issue if you save / exit while creating DLC. This could lock you into an infinite DLC creation on new game / continue. Al though hilarious, it has now been fixed.
- There was a console issue if you went to 60+ years in game where it would show no console info until year 70. I never imagined people would go that deep, I have set some stuff in place to ensure there is no errors for now, but when we get into the console rework we will ensure consoles continue for 100s of years just in case of you super hardcore players out there.
- I have changed a few reality based matches that seemed off based on games released in our real world. Appreciate the info in the steam feedback regarding this, and all suggested changes were made. You wont see theses changes take affect until you are on a new game. The values are set at new game creation, so I can not fix your old save but moving forward they will line up better. If anyone has issues with any matches bring them to me, and well consider any changes.
- Added the guided stage hud tutorial. Now the first time you create a game if you have tutorials on you will get a fully guided stage 1. This will not only explain every aspect of the stage hud, but will ensure you don't break any slider rules to proceed. At least on Stage 1, the rest is up to you. This should clear up a lot of information for new players. I know my avid GDM players don't need this anymore, but would of helped to have it in earlier. I will be improving all tutorials over time with better more interactive experiences. This stage HUD I felt was the most integral to get done first as its very important and can be confusing for many.
That is it for now, next patch will be on July 1st. This is when the new ladder season will begin, and a new GDM champion will be crowed from June. All top 10 placing winners will also be featured in the Hall of Fame. You have until the end of the month to push for spots. I will attempt to get as much into the next patch as I can before the first, but there will be a patch on the first for ladder seasons + whatever I can get done.
My current high priority things to work on are;
Engine Rework
Transition to Steam Boards from Epic Boards
Fast Forward / Weeks passing, game progress bars..
Whatever I can get done will be in on July 1, but the rest will come shortly.
