█ █ Old Enchanter quest (a.k.a. the midnight stone quest); it █ █
█ █ wasn't checking the items of the unit that reached the quest █ █
█ █ destination, rather those of the unit that started the █ █
█ █ quest, which could be a different unit. █ █
█ █ █ █

█ █ █ █

█ █ going on the offensive █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - AI better at determining whether it is in their best █ █
█ █ interests to declare war █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - AI will notify player of tiles they should be using and how █ █
█ █ to use them. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Janusk provides a lot more useful information █ █
█ █ █ █

█ █ *********** █ █
█ █ * Battles * █ █
█ █ *********** █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added "Auto-Move Camera in Tactical" which is OFF by default █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Clarified some language for the hurl boulder spells (that it █ █
█ █ does non-defendable damage). █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Auto resolve draws will now favor the defender. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added message boxes to tactical battles when action points █ █
█ █ are too low to do some action. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added the ability to bring message boxes up as forced popups █ █
█ █ (always on top). █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added checks in auto resolve to be sure a unit can counter █ █
█ █ attack and its target can be counter attacked. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added more robust checks to see if tactical actions can be █ █
█ █ done. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - The tactical action check will now return a string if the █ █
█ █ action cannot be done. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Casting a spell will now properly check action points for █ █
█ █ special abilities and ranged attacks. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Moved the logic to refresh troop numbers to happen when a █ █
█ █ unit's health changes. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Updating troop numbers should now be a bit more logical. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - A unit's max health is now properly based on the maximum █ █
█ █ amount of troops they have (not their current troop number). █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - In tactical battles units that have no spell can no longer █ █
█ █ open the spellbook. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Fixed a few temporary cursors in tactical battles. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added sound effects to all the spells that were using █ █
█ █ FlameBurst1 (which doesn't exist) █ █
█ █ █ █

█ █ makes the spell cost 1 ap instead of 2 ap to use █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Updated all the core ability spell defs with the █ █
█ █ IsSpecialAbility tag. █ █

█ █ - Casting spells in tactical battles costs 2 action points now █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Using special abilities in tactical battles costs 1 action █ █
█ █ point now. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Shooting a ranged weapon in tactical battles cost 2 action █ █
█ █ points now. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - The tooltip for a unit's hit points in the tactical battle █ █
█ █ window will now show any bonuses applied to the health. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ ****** █ █
█ █ * UI * █ █
█ █ ****** █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - added ESC key support for closing common popups. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - new tutorial messages added to the campaign, explaining the █ █
█ █ basics, including: camera movement, unit selection and █ █
█ █ movement, founding a kingdom, tapping a resource, visiting █ █
█ █ an item shop, etc. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added a bunch of new shortcut keys █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Fixed unit shortcut keys while in a city (now clicking on a █ █
█ █ unit portrait in the city will do that unit action instead █ █
█ █ of overriding to the city keys) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Fixed cases that you could click a unit, then click a goodie █ █
█ █ hut (for example), and still use the previous units shortcut █ █
█ █ keys █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Enabled shortcut keys for items that don't belong to the █ █
█ █ local player (details, propose, recruit, etc.) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Fixed the hiergamenon resource breakdown page to include █ █
█ █ houses under construction for food █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added code to reset minimap for new game █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - New game tray implemented (now has next unit and next city █ █
█ █ buttons) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Added shortcut keys for next unit and next city (shift+u and █ █
█ █ shift+c, respectively [shift+s already jumps to sovereign so █ █
█ █ consistent]) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Tool tips cleaned up █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - hooked up new for when disband unit action is disabled █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Faction Editor ôFaction Creatorö hooked up █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Mod Library button added to workshop █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - clicking someone without a soundpack uses a UI sfx, not a █ █
█ █ grunt/yes/ etc (less annoying) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Champion Lorebook/Context area Tweaked, adding 'Equip' █ █
█ █ button that brings up EQUIPMENT, remove list of items █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - unit context: removed equip icon on medallion █ █
█ █ (redundant...button directly to the right had same █ █
█ █ functionality) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Map Notifications now display HUD icons on the map, event █ █
█ █ icons on the side, and when you click the event list icon █ █
█ █ it'll take the player to the event they need to see █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ ********** █ █
█ █ * Engine * █ █
█ █ ********** █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - LOD levels on main map are now back to what they used to be █ █
█ █ for better performance █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - New shard effects, both dormant and tapped, that over 1/2 as █ █
█ █ intensive as their older versions (the joys of beam █ █
█ █ particles over billboard particles) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ ******************* █ █
█ █ * Impulse Overlay * █ █
█ █ ******************* █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Support for swedish, finnish, icelandic and spanish █ █
█ █ keyboards which have the @ symbol on an alt-gr modifier key. █ █
█ █ It is also now possible to enter some more unusual symbols █ █
█ █ too! █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Wheel scrolling in friends list. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ ************* █ █
█ █ * Bug Fixes * █ █
█ █ ************* █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Fixed issue that was preventing quests from placing █ █
█ █ locations with their preferred type (CQuestDef wasn't saving █ █
█ █ the preferred type, so when the data zip was loaded, it █ █
█ █ would be null). █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Fixed some crashes on load from if a unit type was retired █ █
█ █ while a unit of that type was in a training queue, since the █ █
█ █ unit type would be removed from the global vector but some █ █
█ █ things would still be looking for it on load. Now the █ █
█ █ function to remove a retired unit type checks the training █ █
█ █ queues of all the cities, too, and when the AI retires a █ █
█ █ unit type, it removes it from its list of designs. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - I think this also fixes some crashes on load from the █ █
█ █ testers downstairs, where I would see units looking for AI █ █
█ █ designed unit types that weren't in the unit type list █ █
█ █ anymore, as well as the loading in of the AI designed unit █ █
█ █ type vector, but I'm just making an educated guess based on █ █
█ █ the fact that the AI automatically retires unit types it █ █
█ █ designs itself. This does fix a reproducible crash related █ █
█ █ to training units at least, though. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Campaign: AI cities named correctly to match lore █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Lost Library and Ancient Temple now using proper cloth █ █
█ █ icons for their built versions (lost library used to like █ █
█ █ ancient temple) █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ - Fixed bug where using a soverign for a race not their own █ █
█ █ (ex. Relias with Capitar) then playing against the race █ █
█ █ you would have led (Altar, in this example) the random █ █
█ █ sovereign would retain your name (2 relias talking to each █ █
█ █ other) █ █

Û Û destination, rather those of the unit that started the Û Û

Û Û particles over billboard particles) Û Û
Û Û Û Û
Û Û ******************* Û Û

Û Û Û Û
Û Û ************* Û Û
Û Û * Bug Fixes * Û Û
Û Û ************* Û Û
Û Û Û Û
Û Û - Fixed issue that was preventing quests from placing Û Û
Û Û locations with their preferred type (CQuestDef wasn't saving Û Û
Û Û the preferred type, so when the data zip was loaded, it Û Û
Û Û would be null). Û Û
Û Û Û Û
Û Û - Fixed some crashes on load from if a unit type was retired Û Û
Û Û while a unit of that type was in a training queue, since the Û Û
Û Û unit type would be removed from the global vector but some Û Û
Û Û things would still be looking for it on load. Now the Û Û
Û Û function to remove a retired unit type checks the training Û Û
Û Û queues of all the cities, too, and when the AI retires a Û Û
Û Û unit type, it removes it from its list of designs. Û Û
Û Û Û Û
Û Û - I think this also fixes some crashes on load from the Û Û
Û Û testers downstairs, where I would see units looking for AI Û Û
Û Û designed unit types that weren't in the unit type list Û Û
Û Û anymore, as well as the loading in of the AI designed unit Û Û
Û Û type vector, but I'm just making an educated guess based on Û Û
Û Û the fact that the AI automatically retires unit types it Û Û
Û Û designs itself. This does fix a reproducible crash related Û Û
Û Û to training units at least, though. Û Û
Û Û Û Û
Û Û - Campaign: AI cities named correctly to match lore Û Û
Û Û Û Û
Û Û - Lost Library and Ancient Temple now using proper cloth Û Û
Û Û icons for their built versions (lost library used to like Û Û
Û Û ancient temple) Û Û
Û Û Û Û
Û Û - Fixed bug where using a soverign for a race not their own Û Û
Û Û (ex. Relias with Capitar) then playing against the race Û Û
Û Û you would have led (Altar, in this example) the random Û Û
Û Û sovereign would retain your name (2 relias talking to each Û Û
Û Û other) Û Û
