🎞️ v0.1.45: Smooth Transitions & Stability
This update focuses on visual polish through new Transition Loading Screens, alongside critical Stability fixes and UI alignment improvements.
New Visual Transitions:
Transition Loading Screen: Implemented a new loading screen system for smoother transitions when entering or exiting the game world, significantly improving the overal "flow" of the game.
Alert Bar Polish: Improved the horizontal alignment logic for alert pills in the HUD, ensuring notifications are perfectly spaced and readable.
Critical Stability & Technical Polish:
Quit-to-Desktop Fix: Resolved a rare but frustrating crash that could occur specifically when quitting the game.
Steam Integration: Enhanced the Steam API initialization logic to gracefully handle and report failure cases instead of hanging the application.
Save/Load: General reliability improvements in the save/load management pipeline.
Refined Interaction:
Selection Timeout Fix: Corrected a timeout behavior in the provincial hover logic that could sometimes cause selection to "stutter" in high-density areas.
UI Strings: Minor updates to the localization system and dative suffix handling for Turkish grammar.
Movement Config: Updated the movement_ui_config schema to better support the latest precision movement features.
