Hello everyone :)

I just came home, and I am already pushing out an update!

Here's the changelog:

ADDED

• Europe 44 scenario.
• Light inf. 43 for Australia.
• Light inf. 43 for New Zealand.
• M3 Grant for Great Britain.
• Type 3 ka chi for Japan (Amphibious).
• Italian commander Giovanni Messe.
  

CHANGES

• You can now deploy units while all units are hidden. No need to keep toggling ON and OFF.
• Turkish light infantry graphics.
• Improved Overlord 44 balance / realism.
• Improved Europe 41 balance.
• Improved Europe 42 balance.
• Improved Europe 43 balance.
• Mods loading code improvements.
• [strike]Mods can now support any resolution for units / tiles. They will be upscaled automatically to the games standards. For example, base game units are 1024x1024, they roughly are 300kb, a 256x256 weighs about 70kb, which is more than 3 times less. This allows you to make lighter mods that should also increase loading speed. Visual difference is minimal. [/strike] CANCELLED. Converting graphics triggered an auto generation of mipmaps (What are mipmaps? ) and as a result all units or tiles or flags from mods looked blurry. Sorry. I have no workaround, I cannot delete them or not generate them, its some low level shit from the engine API.
• Encirclement modifier now is a % instead of a fixed value. It used to be -5 to final damage from 2 units and above (per unit). It is now changed to -15% damage per unit from 2 units and above.
• Finnish winter damage bonus also gets changed from +5 to +15%.
• Hills do not add a fixed +5 to the damage, but a +15% damage.
• Recon attack bonus is no longer a fixed 5 damage but a +15% damage.
• Landing penalty is no longer a fixed -5 but a -15% damage.
• Generals/Commanders do not give fixed damage buff anymore but a percentage. So, the value of their stats is now a percentage instead of a hard value. If a commander has 15 in soft damage, this translates as all units within range of this commander will receive a +15% damage bonus to soft damage. Using percentages is better for balance and for modding. adding a flat +15 to soft damage would completely break the balance and overpower artillery for example.
• Many changes and improvements to the damage calculation system.
• Updated the manual.
  

FIXES

• Multiplayer not working when joining (PBEM or Real Time).
• Random scenarios generation black screen.
• Damage breakdown inconsistencies (total not adding up to final damage).
• AI not properly buying ships.
• AI not properly buying planes.
• AI was landing on mountain tiles.
• Flags mipmaps were too harsh and I decided to remove them entirely. Flags should now always be crispy even from a distance.
• Mod's thumbnails will keep their aspect ratio when seen in game.
• Doctrines/Policies panel not resizing automatically (could not pick lower ones).
• Air commanders/generals were not buffing air units.
