1.09n (1.1 Beta) changelog
By Derek Paxton on November 17, 2010 4:53:36 PM from Elemental Forums
1.09n Changelog (1.1 Beta)
Scheduled for release on Friday 11/19/2010
*** Beta requires an internet connection to play ***
*** This will break save games ***
*** The campaign is not playable in this version of the beta patch (it will be resolved before the final 1.1 patch) ***
CHANGES TO IMPROVEMENTS/CITIES:
+ Beacon of Hope kingdom improvement added (+2 prestige, 1 per faction).
+ Removed refund of global limited improvement instance counts for world wonders, so that once a world wonder is built, even if it is destroyed, it can't be built again
+ Outpost hubs for levels 1-5 now require 1 food per turn (you cannot build a settlement if you do not meet the 1 food cost)
+ Fixed bug where outposts with no population themselves, but in a faction that had some population available for training, would still not allow the player to train a unit until the city had some population
+ Fixed bug where rationing wasn't actually reducing the production of resources in a city unless that city already had some multiplier on its production, and fixed the disparities between the lorebook breakdown of resource storage in cities under rationing that was caused by this

+ Improvements now extend influence.
+ Tower of Civilization imperial improvement added (+2 prestige, 1 per faction).
+ Tower of Essence kingdom improvement added (+2 mana, city size 3, city has to have a shard).
+ Tower of Doom empire improvement added (+2 mana, city size 3, city has to have a shard).
CHANGES TO UNIT TYPES:
+ Added a 1 available specialist cost to all the default and base unit types for the core factions and race types, so that training a unit will tie up one in the population, and the amount that is tied up scales with the grouping type (so a party of 4 ties up 4 population, etc.).
+ New Ability Bonuses for Great Defender and Immobilized (when immobilized a unit can’t move).
+ New "Guardian Ward" unittype added.

CHANGES TO BATTLES:
+ In tactical battles you can now click on units outside of your attack range in order to set an attack destination unit.
+ Cities now use modifier instances (from Spells) for factoring in DefendingUnitBonuses
+ Quick battles now prevent popups until after the battle is over so that you can see what is happening
+ When a sovereign gets killed in non-hostile territory, instead of spending essence to retreat, they now spend half of their mana and are then immobilized in the city they retreat to for 5 turns.
+ Increased the speed of tactical animations, particuarly with archers and mounted units.
GFX/UI CHANGES:
+ Trade equipment screen now only allows champions, no units. It was confusing that the screen allowed you to give equipment to trained units, but they could do nothing with it, since only champions can equip stuff. The downside is you cannot give your trained units potions and other consumable stuff via this screen anymore.
+ Trade equipment screen now supports drag-and-dropping of entries to trade
+ Trade equipment screen now supports double-clicking of entries, which behaves the same as selecting the entry and hitting the trade button.
+ Can now just high light entries on the trade equipment screen to refresh the context area and see what an item provides, previously you had to select something for that area to update.
+ Asking for the player's population (and the population display in the UI) now shows just the population of the player's cities, and no longer counts units on the map. This way the population can represent the "resource" that player has to manipulate and spend on training units and building improvements, and keeps us from having to have recruited units use available specialists, which when traded or killed would just decrement the specialists and total population simultaneously (e.g. 10/10 would to go 9/9)
+ Main Game Window changes:
Kingdom and Turn button now have labels.
Equip button is back, with a label instead of just a shield icon. It's for when you have a unit selected, otherwise it’s hidden.
Turn counter has been moved from upper right area, to the new upper left area.
On the vitals tab when a unit is selected, the 4th displayed stat is now CurHP/MaxHP instead of combat speed.
Implemented Faction Power Wnd, which is a little dockable window that displays the Power Rating of each player in a game. It is always shown at the start of a game. You can toggle it on/off via a button in the upper right of the main game window. List is sorted by power rating, in descending order. Only shows players that the local player has met. When they meet a new faction, the list is refilled and re-sorted by faction power, so it's always up to date.
+ Added displays of income tax to the kingdom report window and the lorebook info for cities
+ Moved the hotkey strings from the entry text of the unit actions into the tooltip for an action, when that action can be performed
+ Shortened the display name of some of the unit actions, so that they don't clip in the unit actions entries
+ Made the status bars in the city context (showing training and building progress) transparent, so that the button that takes up the whole back of them now can be clicked through the status bars still
+ Added a unit action type to open the spellbook for casting a spell
+ "Disable Particle Effects" option now works in tactical battles
+ AI is moving dialog now only shows in MP
+ Added a new Build List. Added short text info about why an improvement can't be built to the improvement entries themselves. Added any placement limits on improvements (e.g. one per city, or world wonder) to the notes section for the highlighted improvement's stats. Cleaned up some behavior, like disabling and highlighting, adding more info for demolition, and what stats to show when opening the thing the first time, and got rid of some hardcoded badness for adding notes for specific improvement types
+ Vitals tab for caravans and wild improvements now hides the level icon next to the status bar that is used for unit vitals
+ Made it so that when either a construction project or unit completes training, it checks if the city is idle (ie. not training anything else and not building anything else). If so, and it's the local player, they are warned with a popup that the city is idle. The camera now only scrolls to that location, if you select BUILD or TRAIN. So if you hit close to dismiss the dialog, the camera will not have moved from whatever it was you were doing elsewhere.
+ If you load a custom map, either in SP or MP, on the world setup window, it will change the world name to match the display name of the map you selected. You can still change it if you'd like though.
+ The train unit screen now shows the faction's available specialist count at the top instead of the total population of the city the popup was opened from.
+ Disabled "pedestrian LOD override" in tile editor (Makes it easier for our artists and modders to place pedestrians in tile designs).
+ Cleaned up the info cards for caravans, fixing bugs in resizing that kept lots of information from showing up, adding a line saying what city the caravan belongs to, and adding resizing code to ensure that the trade route's resource bonus shows up correctly at the bottom of the info card
+ Added home and trade city info to the vitals tab for caravans, since this is something people have said they wanted to know
+ Info cards pop up for improvements in demolish mode now, so the user knows what they are mousing over
+ Hooked up "M" as the hotkey for the cast spell unit action, added strings to let the user know about that in the new actions context
+ Tactical screen now supports the "Disable Outlines" option
+ Reset Quality and Quantity when you bring the training window back up
+ Clicking on any global resource entry is a shortcut to bring up the city list.
+ Changed all the unit stat displays to show stats as integers, always rounded up to the nearest integer, and to use the same breakdown tooltip to see where the numbers are coming from.
+ In some screens, added descriptions for the stats as the tooltip when mousing over the name or icon of a stat, such as on the level up window, lorebook window, and unit design window (when the user might want to know what their changes are doing to the units)
+ Created a new tooltip breakdown that shows the contributions each member of an army is making to an accumulated stat value, like for the army vitals context when an army is selected on the main screen, to replace the confusing breakdown of only battle bonuses used before
+ All functions and UI now grab the full stat value for a unit, instead of just the value without any geographic bonuses from the terrain they were on or whatever. Also made all stat functions return the full value by default, instead of the partial value (which was the default before).
+ Reenabled tooltips in the lorebook stat entries, so that breakdowns and stat descriptions can be shown.
+ Fixed bug where some trade info for cities weren't initializing their caravan IDs, so that if the trade info was cleared (from one of the cities getting destroyed), it picked an essentially random unit to disband for the caravan of the trade route being destroyed along with the city (aka: Kwilas memorial sovereign caravan assassination bug).
+ New tooltips for the resources in the global resource area of main game window.
+ If per turn amount of a global resource is negative, the number text will be red
+ Terrain Window no longer shows up by default.
CHANGES TO ITEMS:
+ Fixed bug where the AI was designing units with equipment that their model type did not support, caused the larger fallen races, like trogs and quendar, too use female armor that was too small for them (aka: the cross dressing quendar bug).
+ Pioneer Pack no longer an item you can equip dudes with.
+ Fixed quest "Alzor's Armor" to actually give you armor of that name, rather than some similarly (but not exactly) named armor.
+ Fixed bug that caused fallen to not have access to the Soldiers cloak
+ Changed "potion of lesser essence" to "Potion of Intelligence" and it now increases drinker's intelligence by 1
+ Fixed some minor issues from the new tech trees and finish first balance pass of weapons and armor.
CHANGES TO STATS/ABILITIES:
+ Changed stat calculations for prestige bonus (from charisma), dodge, accuracy, attack, defense, and max HP.
Strength- Modifies damage
Dexterity- Modifies dodge
Constitution- Modifies hit points
Intelligence- Modifies spell resistance, boosts some spells, required for Champions to cast some spells
Charisma- Sovereigns Charisma modifies Champion recruit costs. Champions and the Sovereign give a prestige boost to the city they are in.
Attack (which is damage) = Weapon Attack + ((Strength - 10)/2)
Defense (which is damage absorb) = Armor Defense
Accuracy = 15 + (Level * 3)
Dodge = Dexterity / 2
Hit Points = 10 + ( (Constitution / 5) * (2 * Level) )
Spell Resistance = Intelligence / 2
Prestige Boost in City = Charisma / 5
+ Added a Magic Resist stat to units.
+ Made essence a hidden and non-upgradeable stat, so that it should be gone from all the UI and act only as an under-the-hood mark of being a spellcaster
+ Marked some stats as non-upgradeable, and gave them 0 points per level up point. Core stats (strength, intelligence, dexterity, charisma, and constitution) should now all default to 10, be upgradeable, and get 1 point per level up point.
+ Units now get 3 points when they level up.
+ Removed wisdom from the list of core stats.
+ Removed Morale.
+ Changed Intimidating and Cowardly Sovereign talents/weaknesses to affect spell resistance of the sovereign’s army.
+ Changed Natural Leader to Tactician and Cruel to Reckless, and they now affect Dodge of the sovereign’s army.
MISC
+ Players always have a choice of a breakthrough whenever they reach a new tech level.
+ Quests now save/load their 'Subject Unit' (this fixes the Sarog's Egg quest, along with any others that use the subject unit when saving/loading).
+ In SP, popups now prevent units from moving until the popup is closed, and the WaitingForUserResponse flag gets unset immediately after kicking out of the loop, to prevent stuck turns
+ Trade routes set up by caravans now provide 10% bonuses to gildar production in the two cities they connect. Upgrading the roads now provides a 20%, 30%, and 40% bonus for the 4 road levels defined in RoadLevelDefs.xml. Made trade route length and wagons not affect the bonus anymore.
+ There is now the concept of a game year, which starts at 159 A.C.. There are 4 seasons in a game year. A turn is a season. Game year and season are now displayed in the upper left hand corner of the main game wnd, instead of turn num.
+ Adjusted %'s techs show up when researching (it’s all 100% now, open to balance).
+ First pass at creature balance, new stats for all creatures in CoreMonsterUnitTypes.xml.
AI:
+ The AI is now multi-threaded (so it can spend its time contemplating your doom while you are doing other things).
*** This build does not contain Brad's AI optimizations ***
FIXES:
+ Fixed various crashes, memory errors, and hangs
+ Fixed exploit where you could still use the shortcut key (x) to raze a city, even if you don't yet have the tech that grants you the ability to Raze.
+ Fixed a bug where unit wouldn’t drop treasure after tactical battles unless auto resolve was used.
+ Fixed bug when teleporting units in an army: teleporting the leader would move the army, but teleporting using a sub unit would not but it would use its mana anyway, this has now been fixed so that if you use a sub unit to teleport, the whole army is teleported.
+ Fixed a bug where the AI spellcasters would cast spells that they hadn't learned yet, caused problem that we saw where the AI sovereigns would have stone giants, minions, basically many summons early in the game
+ Fixed bug where looking at spells you haven't learned yet in the spellbook wnd when your faction wasn't creating any spell points per turn would cause it to display a nonsense number for turns to learn, now just says "Will Not Learn"
+ Fixed an autoselection bug in tactical battles such that if a local unit is already selected a new unit is not chosen at the start of the local player's turn.
+ Spell effects should now spawn at an appropriate tile offset for units not at the center of their tiles.
+ Tactical window now caches unit IDs to avoid mysterious unit deaths after a battle.
+ Fixed a bug where absorbed damage was not detected properly.
+ Fixed a bug that caused double battle report text.
+ Fixed a bug where defending units had incorrect damage done in battle reports.
+ Fixed bug where the pass turn action in tactical was allowed only when stuff was animating, instead of the other way around, making it not do anything most of the time
+ Fixed bug where entries couldn't be dragged onto a listbox that doesn't already have at least one entry
+ Fixed bug where the AI would sometimes overwrite the description of unit types depending on what they were doing, which caused units of the same type owned by the player to lose their descriptions and show something that wasn't applicable to them
+ Fixed bug where turns to learn a new spell level wasn't being displayed in the spellbook window when selected
+ Fixed bug where after equipping a mount like a horse or warg, if you went to Edit Info Card screen the cloth poses would be incorrect
+ Fixed particle effects not working in tile editor
+ Fixed bugs in tile design shadow generation. Now when you save a tile design in the tile editor, its shadow will generate properly, and it will update in the editor window so it shows the new shadow
+ Fixed bug where icons on cloth map were being rendered over top of unit markers
+ Fixed "flickering" decals bug (If there is no texture or the texture is not loaded, the decal is not rendered).
+ Fixed bug where the actions entries and the item entries in the unit vitals tab had their pictures sized differently, causing them to look mismatched
+ Fixed beam effects not working
+ Fixed bug where decals would flicker and the wrong decals would show up for objects in tactical battle after multiple battles
+ Fixed bug where the valid demolish cursor did not show up when mousing over an improvement that could be demolished in demolish mode
+ Fixed bug where the train unit queue wasn't being shown in the context area when the train unit wnd was open, so that you couldn't see the state of the queue while adding to it
+ Fixed bug where the first time the city right context wnd was unhidden on starting/loading a game, clicking the train unit button or build button didn't do anything because the new data was getting cleared out by on start new game code
+ Fixed bug where the resource breakdown for a certain resource in a city would sometimes not match what was actually being produced because the city hub and improvements under construction were often being ignored in the breakdown; now all improvements in a city are looked at no matter what, the improvements themselves are smart enough to tell the lorebook what modifiers they apply or not based on if they have finished construction
+ Fixed bug where images in the conversation window did not scale properly
+ Fixed bug where Edit Info Card screen would display the unit type's name rather than the unit's name
+ Fixed bug where global resource area would not always resize correctly.
+ Fixed bug where destroyed units would still get counted in a player's resource production for the duration of the turn before the player actually removed them from their unit list
+ Fixed bug where caravans still had the Guard action available when they started trading, which could cancel their directive to travel along their trade route
+ Fixed bug where two caravans on the same road (but going in opposite directions) were applying their effects on the road separately instead of together, causing it to not take a shorter time for a road to grow levels by having two caravans on it versus one
+ Fixed problem where roads between cities, where one of the cities got destroyed, were not being deleted and removed from the world now that they were no longer needed
Parche impostantísimo. Parece un juego nuevo. Interfaz, elimina la essence de los personajes.....mil cosas

Implemented Faction Power Wnd, which is a little dockable window that displays the Power Rating of each player in a game. It is always shown at the start of a game. You can toggle it on/off via a button in the upper right of the main game window. List is sorted by power rating, in descending order. Only shows players that the local player has met. When they meet a new faction, the list is refilled and re-sorted by faction power, so it's always up to date.
+ Added displays of income tax to the kingdom report window and the lorebook info for cities
+ Moved the hotkey strings from the entry text of the unit actions into the tooltip for an action, when that action can be performed
+ Shortened the display name of some of the unit actions, so that they don't clip in the unit actions entries
+ Made the status bars in the city context (showing training and building progress) transparent, so that the button that takes up the whole back of them now can be clicked through the status bars still
+ Added a unit action type to open the spellbook for casting a spell
+ "Disable Particle Effects" option now works in tactical battles
+ AI is moving dialog now only shows in MP
+ Added a new Build List. Added short text info about why an improvement can't be built to the improvement entries themselves. Added any placement limits on improvements (e.g. one per city, or world wonder) to the notes section for the highlighted improvement's stats. Cleaned up some behavior, like disabling and highlighting, adding more info for demolition, and what stats to show when opening the thing the first time, and got rid of some hardcoded badness for adding notes for specific improvement types
+ Vitals tab for caravans and wild improvements now hides the level icon next to the status bar that is used for unit vitals
+ Made it so that when either a construction project or unit completes training, it checks if the city is idle (ie. not training anything else and not building anything else). If so, and it's the local player, they are warned with a popup that the city is idle. The camera now only scrolls to that location, if you select BUILD or TRAIN. So if you hit close to dismiss the dialog, the camera will not have moved from whatever it was you were doing elsewhere.
+ If you load a custom map, either in SP or MP, on the world setup window, it will change the world name to match the display name of the map you selected. You can still change it if you'd like though.
+ The train unit screen now shows the faction's available specialist count at the top instead of the total population of the city the popup was opened from.
+ Disabled "pedestrian LOD override" in tile editor (Makes it easier for our artists and modders to place pedestrians in tile designs).
+ Cleaned up the info cards for caravans, fixing bugs in resizing that kept lots of information from showing up, adding a line saying what city the caravan belongs to, and adding resizing code to ensure that the trade route's resource bonus shows up correctly at the bottom of the info card
+ Added home and trade city info to the vitals tab for caravans, since this is something people have said they wanted to know
+ Info cards pop up for improvements in demolish mode now, so the user knows what they are mousing over
+ Hooked up "M" as the hotkey for the cast spell unit action, added strings to let the user know about that in the new actions context
+ Tactical screen now supports the "Disable Outlines" option
+ Reset Quality and Quantity when you bring the training window back up
+ Clicking on any global resource entry is a shortcut to bring up the city list.
+ Changed all the unit stat displays to show stats as integers, always rounded up to the nearest integer, and to use the same breakdown tooltip to see where the numbers are coming from.
+ In some screens, added descriptions for the stats as the tooltip when mousing over the name or icon of a stat, such as on the level up window, lorebook window, and unit design window (when the user might want to know what their changes are doing to the units)
+ Created a new tooltip breakdown that shows the contributions each member of an army is making to an accumulated stat value, like for the army vitals context when an army is selected on the main screen, to replace the confusing breakdown of only battle bonuses used before
+ All functions and UI now grab the full stat value for a unit, instead of just the value without any geographic bonuses from the terrain they were on or whatever. Also made all stat functions return the full value by default, instead of the partial value (which was the default before).
+ Reenabled tooltips in the lorebook stat entries, so that breakdowns and stat descriptions can be shown.
+ Fixed bug where some trade info for cities weren't initializing their caravan IDs, so that if the trade info was cleared (from one of the cities getting destroyed), it picked an essentially random unit to disband for the caravan of the trade route being destroyed along with the city (aka: Kwilas memorial sovereign caravan assassination bug).
+ New tooltips for the resources in the global resource area of main game window.
+ If per turn amount of a global resource is negative, the number text will be red
+ Terrain Window no longer shows up by default.
CHANGES TO ITEMS:
+ Fixed bug where the AI was designing units with equipment that their model type did not support, caused the larger fallen races, like trogs and quendar, too use female armor that was too small for them (aka: the cross dressing quendar bug).
+ Pioneer Pack no longer an item you can equip dudes with.
+ Fixed quest "Alzor's Armor" to actually give you armor of that name, rather than some similarly (but not exactly) named armor.
+ Fixed bug that caused fallen to not have access to the Soldiers cloak
+ Changed "potion of lesser essence" to "Potion of Intelligence" and it now increases drinker's intelligence by 1
+ Fixed some minor issues from the new tech trees and finish first balance pass of weapons and armor.
CHANGES TO STATS/ABILITIES:
+ Changed stat calculations for prestige bonus (from charisma), dodge, accuracy, attack, defense, and max HP.
Strength- Modifies damage
Dexterity- Modifies dodge
Constitution- Modifies hit points
Intelligence- Modifies spell resistance, boosts some spells, required for Champions to cast some spells
Charisma- Sovereigns Charisma modifies Champion recruit costs. Champions and the Sovereign give a prestige boost to the city they are in.
Attack (which is damage) = Weapon Attack + ((Strength - 10)/2)
Defense (which is damage absorb) = Armor Defense
Accuracy = 15 + (Level * 3)
Dodge = Dexterity / 2
Hit Points = 10 + ( (Constitution / 5) * (2 * Level) )
Spell Resistance = Intelligence / 2
Prestige Boost in City = Charisma / 5
+ Added a Magic Resist stat to units.
+ Made essence a hidden and non-upgradeable stat, so that it should be gone from all the UI and act only as an under-the-hood mark of being a spellcaster
+ Marked some stats as non-upgradeable, and gave them 0 points per level up point. Core stats (strength, intelligence, dexterity, charisma, and constitution) should now all default to 10, be upgradeable, and get 1 point per level up point.
+ Units now get 3 points when they level up.
+ Removed wisdom from the list of core stats.
+ Removed Morale.
+ Changed Intimidating and Cowardly Sovereign talents/weaknesses to affect spell resistance of the sovereign’s army.
+ Changed Natural Leader to Tactician and Cruel to Reckless, and they now affect Dodge of the sovereign’s army.
MISC
+ Players always have a choice of a breakthrough whenever they reach a new tech level.
+ Quests now save/load their 'Subject Unit' (this fixes the Sarog's Egg quest, along with any others that use the subject unit when saving/loading).
+ In SP, popups now prevent units from moving until the popup is closed, and the WaitingForUserResponse flag gets unset immediately after kicking out of the loop, to prevent stuck turns
+ Trade routes set up by caravans now provide 10% bonuses to gildar production in the two cities they connect. Upgrading the roads now provides a 20%, 30%, and 40% bonus for the 4 road levels defined in RoadLevelDefs.xml. Made trade route length and wagons not affect the bonus anymore.
+ There is now the concept of a game year, which starts at 159 A.C.. There are 4 seasons in a game year. A turn is a season. Game year and season are now displayed in the upper left hand corner of the main game wnd, instead of turn num.
+ Adjusted %'s techs show up when researching (it’s all 100% now, open to balance).
+ First pass at creature balance, new stats for all creatures in CoreMonsterUnitTypes.xml.
AI:
+ The AI is now multi-threaded (so it can spend its time contemplating your doom while you are doing other things).
*** This build does not contain Brad's AI optimizations ***
FIXES:
+ Fixed various crashes, memory errors, and hangs
+ Fixed exploit where you could still use the shortcut key (x) to raze a city, even if you don't yet have the tech that grants you the ability to Raze.
+ Fixed a bug where unit wouldn’t drop treasure after tactical battles unless auto resolve was used.
+ Fixed bug when teleporting units in an army: teleporting the leader would move the army, but teleporting using a sub unit would not but it would use its mana anyway, this has now been fixed so that if you use a sub unit to teleport, the whole army is teleported.
+ Fixed a bug where the AI spellcasters would cast spells that they hadn't learned yet, caused problem that we saw where the AI sovereigns would have stone giants, minions, basically many summons early in the game
+ Fixed bug where looking at spells you haven't learned yet in the spellbook wnd when your faction wasn't creating any spell points per turn would cause it to display a nonsense number for turns to learn, now just says "Will Not Learn"
+ Fixed an autoselection bug in tactical battles such that if a local unit is already selected a new unit is not chosen at the start of the local player's turn.
+ Spell effects should now spawn at an appropriate tile offset for units not at the center of their tiles.
+ Tactical window now caches unit IDs to avoid mysterious unit deaths after a battle.
+ Fixed a bug where absorbed damage was not detected properly.
+ Fixed a bug that caused double battle report text.
+ Fixed a bug where defending units had incorrect damage done in battle reports.
+ Fixed bug where the pass turn action in tactical was allowed only when stuff was animating, instead of the other way around, making it not do anything most of the time
+ Fixed bug where entries couldn't be dragged onto a listbox that doesn't already have at least one entry
+ Fixed bug where the AI would sometimes overwrite the description of unit types depending on what they were doing, which caused units of the same type owned by the player to lose their descriptions and show something that wasn't applicable to them
+ Fixed bug where turns to learn a new spell level wasn't being displayed in the spellbook window when selected
+ Fixed bug where after equipping a mount like a horse or warg, if you went to Edit Info Card screen the cloth poses would be incorrect
+ Fixed particle effects not working in tile editor
+ Fixed bugs in tile design shadow generation. Now when you save a tile design in the tile editor, its shadow will generate properly, and it will update in the editor window so it shows the new shadow
+ Fixed bug where icons on cloth map were being rendered over top of unit markers
+ Fixed "flickering" decals bug (If there is no texture or the texture is not loaded, the decal is not rendered).
+ Fixed bug where the actions entries and the item entries in the unit vitals tab had their pictures sized differently, causing them to look mismatched
+ Fixed beam effects not working
+ Fixed bug where decals would flicker and the wrong decals would show up for objects in tactical battle after multiple battles
+ Fixed bug where the valid demolish cursor did not show up when mousing over an improvement that could be demolished in demolish mode
+ Fixed bug where the train unit queue wasn't being shown in the context area when the train unit wnd was open, so that you couldn't see the state of the queue while adding to it
+ Fixed bug where the first time the city right context wnd was unhidden on starting/loading a game, clicking the train unit button or build button didn't do anything because the new data was getting cleared out by on start new game code
+ Fixed bug where the resource breakdown for a certain resource in a city would sometimes not match what was actually being produced because the city hub and improvements under construction were often being ignored in the breakdown; now all improvements in a city are looked at no matter what, the improvements themselves are smart enough to tell the lorebook what modifiers they apply or not based on if they have finished construction
+ Fixed bug where images in the conversation window did not scale properly
+ Fixed bug where Edit Info Card screen would display the unit type's name rather than the unit's name
+ Fixed bug where global resource area would not always resize correctly.
+ Fixed bug where destroyed units would still get counted in a player's resource production for the duration of the turn before the player actually removed them from their unit list
+ Fixed bug where caravans still had the Guard action available when they started trading, which could cancel their directive to travel along their trade route
+ Fixed bug where two caravans on the same road (but going in opposite directions) were applying their effects on the road separately instead of together, causing it to not take a shorter time for a road to grow levels by having two caravans on it versus one
+ Fixed problem where roads between cities, where one of the cities got destroyed, were not being deleted and removed from the world now that they were no longer needed

Re: Elemental: War of Magic
Sí,bastante mejorado aunque aun es una beta. Eso sí la IA sigue siendo mala, aunque es verdad que aun no se han incorporado los cambios que estan haciendo. Con la version 1.1 creo que sacaran al fin un manual en condiciones
Re: Elemental: War of Magic
Mañana o pasado sale la esperada version 1.1. Yo he estado con la beta y la verdad es que el juego ha mejorado muchisimo sobre todo al poner la poblacion como un recurso más y el mana como recurso general para todo el mundo. La IA al fin parece competitiva

Re: Elemental: War of Magic
Yo es que tengo el juego totalmente aparcado hasta que sea jugable, en que estado está ahora mismo? cuales son sus ppales problemas? no se que he leído de que las batallas tácticas no van finas y que no es algo que se vaya a corregir con el 1.1 pero como no he jugado no se exactamente que querían decir.
Re: Elemental: War of Magic
Yo diria que el estado es bastante jugable, aunque no sé exactamente a lo que te refieres con las batallas tacticas
Re: Elemental: War of Magic
En el hilo sobre el juego que hay en wargamer.com un forero decía esto:
I am still unsure of wether v1.1 will have the often wished tactical battle improvements or wether that will be for v1.2 or even the first expansion...
Still, I have been playing for a few hours with build 1.09v and w and it's actually very much playable at the moment. I mostly autoresolve to avoid the tactical battles still, to prevent me getting frustrated while waiting for those improvements. But at least you can get into the workings of the game now, I find.
De ahí mis dudas sobre que problemas tienen las batallas tácticas porque para mi es uno de los atractivos del juego.

Re: Elemental: War of Magic
Tampoco es que especifique mucho el por qué de su fustraciónto prevent me getting frustrated while waiting for those improvements
Esta claro que las batallas tacticas no es el fuerte del juego. Por comparar, es más simple que las batallas del Age of Wonders por ejemplo. No hay linea de vision para los disparos y las unidades pueden salir libremente de ZOCs enemigas, por ejemplo
