5.701 Cleanup Prior To Those Necromancers
This includes a fix to the "prior" button not actually working properly in the prior build. It now does. A couple of tooltips have seen some improvements, and there's protection against a couple of possible errors.
The NecroParty mod has had a lot of balance updates and corrections to how well it gives you a starting spot. The Generator mod now makes better choices for AI homeworlds. The Reclaimers mod has had a few balance tweaks.
If you're a volunteer or mod coder for the game, there are a number of additions to make life easier to you.
Heart of the Machine just passed 700 reviews by players! Exciting milestone. The game continues to grow, with a lot of exciting things in work for the next couple of months. April is me reworking the prologue and chapter one a lot, and then May will be a focus on tier one and two goals in chapter 2+. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2001070/Heart_of_the_Machine/

AI War II is a grand strategic RTS against an overwhelming, inhuman enemy who has conquered the galaxy. The enemy has made only a single error: underestimating you.
You must steal as much technology as you can, and take enough territory to fortify your bases and launch your attacks. But every conquest you make turns the attention of the AI ever more in your direction... so choose your targets with care.
It's "a sequel to [Arcen's] enormo-space RTS AI War, which we called'one of this year's finest strategy games' back in 2009" (Tom Sykes, PC Gamer)

What's New?
We still have a lot of work to do on the game, and we're undergoing some major work with our beta testers before heading to Early Access, but a lot is already awesome:- The game is crazy moddable.
- It's multithreaded to take full use of modern computers.
- The new 3D graphics are working out great.
- The UI has already been dramatically improved by the introduction of a tabbed sidebar in the main view, and streamlining of several other mechanics that felt very difficult in the past. More to come, there.
- We’ve got art for over 130 distinct units (not counting different mark levels), and there's more to come.
- We’ve got over 1500 lines of spoken dialogue from more than 25 actors, focusing primarily on the human side at the moment; we have a few hundred lines of AI-side taunts and chatter, some of which is recorded but just not processed yet.
- There are hundreds of high quality sound effects for a varied battlefield soundscape (with distance attenuation if you’re far away, and positional 3D audio if you’re down in the thick of it), all routed through a tuned mixer setup for optimal listening to all the various parts.
- We have a set of music from Classic that is over four and a half hours long, and the new music from Pablo is partly in, but mostly set to be mastered and integrated within the next week or two.
- There’s also a ton of map types, many of them new, and with a lot of sub-options to make them even more varied.
- And a whole lot more.
