For modders: how to update a mod from 1.02 to 1.03 beta
First of all, you need to change the file db\misc.txt:
- at line 168 (right before the } ), added 14 new lines
Code:
# Nukes production rate modifier. Higher this is, longer it takes to get a new nuke.
200.0 #80.0
# Convoy system options for allied (own country and friendly nations controlled land connected provinces) and own (own country controlled and land connected provinces) areas:
# 0 - Ignore allied areas, work on own areas only. Default (old) behavior
# 1 - Convoys can be to/from own country controlled provinces only, but allied area is used too (so there's only one convoy to allied area per country)
# 2 - Convoys can use allied provinces as start/end destinations as long as the country controls at least one province in the allied area
# Note 1: Convoys can start from oversea puppet provinces regardless of this setting (required to transport puppet's resources to master's capital)
# Note 2: Options 1 and 2 work best if "Merge and relocate provincial depots to the best province in the area." option is enabled too.
2 #0
# Resource convoys can ship back to capital unneeded supplies (and oil) from oversea depots.
# -1.0 - Disabled (only oil is shipped back)
# >= 0.0 - Percentage of the current needs that should be left in the province.
# Examples: 0.0 - take all exceeding supplies and oil, 0.5 - leave currently needed + 50% buffer, 1.0 - leave currently needed + 100% buffer etc.
0.2 # -1.0

That should be all for misc.txt (it should have grown from 950 lines to 1141 lines).
A note: these changes are best to be made with a program like WinMerge as the chance for user errors will be lower then by direct edit. It only takes a minute with a program like that.
Most mods would only need the change above. There is also another file that should be changed, but
only for the mods that include this file in their files. This file is db\units\modifiers.csv. Most mods don't include this file and read it directly from DHCore, so if they don't include they don't need it.
