🌐 v0.1.69: Global Stability & Localization Polish
This milestone update focuses on Full Localization Validation, significant Boot Stability improvements, and comprehensive Performance optimizations across all major systems.
Localization & Cultural Polish:
Language Validation: Conducted a deep audit of all localized strings. Resolved multiple issues with month names, country designations, and grammatical gender agreement across all supported languages.
Key Ordering: Improved the internal ordering and indexing of localization keys, resulting in more consistent text rendering and faster language switching.
Edge Case Selection: Fixed several rare issues where country selection or language switching could result in incorrect UI labels or missing map data.
Stability & Engineering:
Boot Crash Improvement: Implemented a critical fix for a rare Unity crash occurring during the initial boot scene. The game startup sequence is now significantly more robust.
Economy Diagnostics: Resolved a bug in the economic diagnostic overlay that could cause visual artifacts during high-frequency market updates.
Army Retreats: Further refined the retreat pathing logic to handle complex terrain and neutral territory more intelligently.
Performance Excellence:
System-Wide Optimization: Delivered a series of performance improvements to the core simulation loop, population growth systems, and diplomatic AI, resulting in smoother frame times on all hardware configurations.
Metadata Sync: Synchronized all project metadata and font assets to support the latest localization updates.
