Greetings From The Moon! This Wargames update finally brings the Moon into the game, one of the most promised features from yonks ago. You can now take advantage of your Rocket research to promote your nation on the Moon. Future versions will also allow you to fight over resources. The other major update this time round is a total replacement of selecting nations to attack, this time in a list system in its own window. If this goes as well as my closed testing has, next version will include filterable results to help you decide who to take a whack at.
Alongside this, quite a number of attack-based bugs have been wiped out, plus one or two other minor changes.
Next update I'm hoping to redraw some icons, improve their internal code a bit regarding buildings and eras and try my best to rid 100 or more KB in the download that has swamped upwards in recent updates due to the terrain and style options.
* Fix: 9801 Medal would not always register, fixed.
* Fix: The last 4 unit additions to ships wouldn't be counted as a force when working out Naval Engagements, even though they worked fine during the actual attack, fixed.
* Fix: With the new attack system in place, an error that would require pressing the cancel button after attacking should now be non-existent.
* Fix: Minor typo/text changes/fixes.
* Fix: Under the old attack system, one could attack PUN'ed nations.
* Fix/Change: Some of the more obscure land commands such as terraform wasn't skipping the time taken to pass non-altered squares.
* Change: Now BYOND updates keys and number of players online much better than when this feature was included, "players currently in game" has been removed from the server message.
* Change: Added a cancel for the suggestion box, the most common suggestion at all.
* New: New system for selecting nation to attack. This is now based on a new list system, which can be filtered in a number of ways to get results you can actually use.
- This way, one doesn't have to go through the process of selecting a flag through the HUD, or going through the cumbersome process of selecting several options. The window stays and literally creates a 1-click-attack.
* New: Nuclear plants now have alternative smoke pattern.
* New: You can now "spy" on The Moon.
- The Moon is now visible, after many years of wait. When available, its three terrain types will have the following uses:
- Plain: Bog standard Wargames grid, holds no special properties.
- Craters: The tile that looks like alien invaders, these are squares with defence bonuses for units on top of them.
- Metal: The one that looks like some kind of jewellery shop, these are squares that can be developed on for mining additional metal.
* New: You can now send a rocket to The Moon.
- This is possible as soon as you have completed the Rocket into Space research, spy on The Moon and click an open, basic tile.
* New Medals:
- A Rocket to the Moon: Successfully launch a rocket to The Moon.
