This minor update fixes a problem with starting the game on new ARM (M1+) Macs.

This update turns Conquest of Elysium 3 into a 64-bit game. The main reason for this update is to make sure the game continues to run on modern OSes, but there are also some bug fixes that have accumulated over the years. Most importantly this update is required to be able to continue to use this game on Macs. If someone still uses a 32-bit OS for some reason, it is possible to continue to run the old version by opting in to the legacy private beta in steam (password: legacylegacy).

General changes

• Improved performance due to 64-bit version
  
• Recreate temp directory if it should be deleted while playing
  
• Battle inconsistency fix
