WoT updated to version 0.7.12

As we said before, at Hermes Interactive we are absolutely commited to improving the game with the suggestions we get from all of you. This new update includes:

Automatic Trading Routes now keep track of profit and losses since you started them.
Tweaked the placement of production buildings in the world so it's more unlikely that a city will produce the same goods it needs (for example, having both an arsenal and barracks in the same city).
New legend box in the city window that explains the meaning of the different colors of prices.
Price tooltips in the city window now appear much faster than before.
When trying to buy or sell goods in a city with no trade office after you open one it will automatically resume whatever action you were going to do.
More accurate data in the competitors window charts, particularly in the 1, 3 and 5 years zoom levels.
Several improvements to the soundtrack of the game, made by our wonderful composer!
Cities where you own a trade office are now marked with an asterisk in the Automatic Trading Route window.
Fixed an exploit that allowed the player to improve the relationship with a country by buying and selling the same goods many times.
Fixed a bug that caused the UI to lag severely when creating an Automatic Trading Route with over 15 steps.
Fixed a bug that caused the AI players to glitch if you sabotaged one of their ships.

Now onwards to the next update! And also the SteamOS / Linux release that is coming in a few days. As always, thanks for your feedback!

Main Features

Procedurally generated worlds: You will face different challenges and you will have to learn how the cities’ production chains interact every time you start a new game.
Realistic economic simulation: All prices respond to the basic laws of supply and demand. Every raw material comes from somewhere and every final product goes somewhere to be bought. No arbitrary game rules set, just the will of the free market.
Smuggling: Some goods that can be freely bought in one city may be illegal someplace else... Are you willing to take risks for some extra profit?
Smart Artificial Intelligence opponents that will make your way to the top even more challenging!
Dynamic world economy: Events such as forest fires, bad harvests or war alter the supply, demand and prices of the different commodities.
Contracts system: You can accept contracts from governments, private companies and even shady smugglers in order to make some extra money transporting goods. But don't forget, failing comes with a price.
Turn based battle system: Pirates may attack you if your cargo is valuable enough... Do you have what it takes to defend yourself? Also, be very careful during wartime, especially if you are transporting weaponry or troops.
Your very own colonies: Once you are powerful enough you can found your own colonies in order to exploit natural resources and play with the rules of the market.
8 different ship types from the Age of Sailing, including brigs, galleons, frigates and schooners.
Automatic Trade Routes: Once your fleet is big enough you can make scripts for your ships to follow and they will trade according to your rules automatically.
Improve your ships' stats by hiring experienced captains or purchasing upgrades.
Stock market: Invest in companies, help them sell their goods worldwide and collect the profits.
A rich and immersive soundtrack.

We also have some exciting plans for future updates!
