Hey everyone. Bit of a small update this time as we've got a lot of stuff in progress we're not ready to get feedback from. We have however addressed a few major bugs that have been causing people problems since the start.

Narration Maps

We're slowly adding some images to add context to the narration of missions. They reinforce the dialogue from the narrator explaining the situations of the war leading to the current mission. Check them out in Campaign 2, gives us your thoughts.

Improved Error Reporting

Errors occurring in mission should no longer spam, and will now (typically) only display the first and most relevant error. Please do continue to send these error reports, they are a huge help.

Low Frame-rate Improvements

For people on low-end machines trying to play the game, some good news! There were issues with animating units getting stuck, which caused endless turns and the inability to continue. This should never happen again, and if you see it (units moving in circles trying to reach a position) please report it to us!

Changelist

• Fixed navigation of some stone walls
• Fixed various bugs in the Gameplay options menu
• Added narrator maps at the start of Missions instead of black screens
• Numerous missing text and localisation fixes in preparation for localisation to foreign languages
• Added system for loading screen tooltips. Hints to come later!
• Fixed units getting stuck attacking walls (and other buildings)
• Fixed corruption of save and load system some users were experiencing
• Fixed rare crash when selecting a unit
• Fixed issue with Wooden walls in Autumn levels
• Battle-mode save files now show information correctly on the load menu
• Auto-save time has been dramatically sped up, which results far more responsive End Turns
• Units no longer get stuck moving at low frame-rates

Thanks for all the support, and please keep the feedback coming!
