June 19th v2.1.160

Todays update contains the IGS item "Chief Justice" and a back end tweak not visible to players.

Happy Midsummers eve!

Hotfix June 13th, 10th, v2.1.156 & .157 & .159

A hotfix for for the crash issues has been deployed. v 2.1.156.
We will patch again shortly to further stabalize.

The issue was related to the AI and pathfinding and led to a very high crash rate on some rigs, but went by silently on others Very sorry about this!

2.1.157 is now live and should stabalize the save game issues.

2.1.159 is now live to fix the last issue.

Changelog June 5th (v. 2.1.153)

AI and Modding
• AI unit-buying behaviour bugfix
• AI now uses magic to help advancing its armies! (terramorphing, flying, water-walking and teleportation)
• AI additionally tuned
• Modding of cities added (only cities of selected race can be changed from the race editor, any city can be changed from the main editor).
• Some missing Great Mage perks were added to the Editor.

Fixes
• Fixed an issue when AI send units in a fog of war, where unexpected water title occur.
• Summon Hero spell fixed.
• Fixed crash with only one player having mod with custom map in multiplayer )
• Fixed an issue with crash on different spell trees of multiplayer players
• Fixed problem with trigger activation after a number of turns (not only in modding).

Additional
• If host has mods that joining players do not have, you now have the opportunity to download them directly. Currently you have to do this twice, since the first try will render an error message.

Maps are also an exception to this: if you download a map this way the host will crash but the clients will still get the map. So the host can then recreate the game and the clients can join in. This is known and we are looking at this.

Patchnotes May 16th (v2.1.143 & 142)

v2.1.143
Fixes
• The quests & triggers now work as they should (problem introduces in 2.1.142)
• Deleating a save game from the list no longer temporary deleates the game after it in the list as well. The second save was never really lost, it just vanished from the list for a while.


v2.1.142
Fixes
• Fixed an issue where simultaneous quests sometimes got mixed up. This is fixed for new games but could persist in old saves.
• Fixed an issue when a player could get "stuck" in "Connecting to Lobby" screen in Multi player after entering email and password. The loading time for the first connection to lobby is still long, but that is a one time thing that is being looked at.
• Fixed an issue where some troubled saved games could note be loaded.
• Fixed an issue where the difficulty settings caused strange damage modifications when fighting other players in multi player.
• Fixed an issue where players could accidentaly enable the Fog of War while in editor, that would persist in his normal game mode afterwards.
• Fixed so that the achievement "Unity" is enabled.
• Fixed an issue where melee units could not attack cities with flying units in them.

v2.1.141
Modding additions:
• Great Mage perks are now moddable !
• Faction perks are now moddable !

Fixes
• In modding it is now possible to save units with settler action !
• Localisation fixed in the quest “Three questions”
• Some fixes in the English localisation.

Additional:
In game store added with a free (for a limited time) voice pack for the Adviser.


Short summary:
We put 2.1.142 live on May 15 at 10.00 CET. After that we realised that there were problems in that version connected to triggers. We tried to fix it yesterday but did not succeed, so we made a rollback to 2.1.141 that for some people had trouble with save games. Today (May 16, 13.00 CET) we deployed a hotfix (2.1.143) that solved the problems of the previous version while also including all the fixes of them. Sorry for the trouble.
