2022-05-21: Update 2.3.43 - Bugfix for Desync. in Multiplayer Game, Modding Update & Bugfixes

Sync. Error: the AI modified a random number generator in the core game loop it shouldn't cause all clients to be out of sync after a short time (butterfly effect).
Sync. Error (minor): auto-entering a captured unit such as a chinook could potentially lead to synchronization issues (code removed).
Modding Intro: there is now a introduction video for modding available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/d7ZMeS9HkXk
Modding /w Custom Units: explains how to create your own custom units and such. Available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/lVFtDx7VcRw
Modding: the editor now allows exporting the raw object graphics used by the game. Available via "Export Graphics" in the [Edit] menu. This can be used as a starting point to potentially fully customize troops and structures and more.
Modding: the "custom" folder in a template.ZIP now contains a working tank model example on how to add e.g. a custom tank graphics. Comments included!
Modding: I updated the template.ZIP with the latest fixes and balancing (e.g. bullet hovertank with wrong sound FX). Please apply it and upload a map update if you have the map uploaded to the server. Thanks!
Modding Manual: updated with image formats and sound formats supported. Also further detail on map uploads and versioning.
Modding: 2-figure dialog can now also be configured to have the 1. figure blank (just on right-hand side). Used in campaign and for triggers.

Bugfix: the redirect to a website didn't work on Steam if the Steam overlay was disabled.
Bugfix: there was a crash creating a multiplayer game.
Bugfix: updating a map with custom assets didn't properly retain the new assets during the update (it required re-loading the map to properly work).
Bugfix: spawning function only spawns the commander once (no commander re-spawn).
Bugfix: setting up a trigger that spawns troops didn't work properly.
Bugfix Crashes: if the job target had the wrong type (possible due to sync. error?).
Bugfix Crashes: if a host we move to had the wrong type, i.e. not a host.

2022-05-18: Update 2.2.41 - Hosting Games now Free & Steam DLC to Unlock Current & Future Maps incl. Campaign

Steam DLC "All Maps & Modding": the game can now be also purchased also via the "All Maps & Modding" DLC. This includes everything for single player including the campaign, LAN or WAN games. This covers the same as the corresponding "All Maps & Modding" that is available in-game.
Steam DLC Purchasing Options: I removed the other options for purchasing maps (based on player feedback). It's just "All Maps & Modding" (either via DLC or in-app). If you made a purchase for a single map or you purchased just modding, you might want to get a refund, given there is now no more other options to complete the set on Steam. Contact me under user "noblemaster" in-game via private message and ask for the refund. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hosting Games: hosting games over the official servers is now free. The original goal was to cover hosting fees but also encourage players to join other players' games. Given hosting games is now free, giving 5 coins per day to each player isn't really needed anymore and the amount has been reduced to 1 coin a day.
Maps Updated: default map and "Battle Map 02" now also have a 1 vs. 1 scenario.
AI: the AI should now build troops early on in the 4 vs. 4 vs. 4 scenario (BM 02). It should also build troops earlier in other maps.
AI NOTE: I'm aware the AI needs some more work. I'll spend some time, but there are quite a few smaller things that I need to focus on first incl. bugs. Please wait.
Map Zooming: the minimum and maximum zoom level can now be configured in the settings. It's now possible to zoom in up to 2x of the original and zoom out 2x further. Please note, zooming out too far might potentially cause performance issues for rendering on some devices.
Display Scaling: the display scale factor setting had the scale into the wrong direction. It's now fixed. If you had it set before, it was reset due prevent problems. Please re-apply your setting again, sorry for the inconvenience.
Mouse Middle Button: the mouse middle button (if available; possibly "merged" with mouse wheel) allows dragging the map when pressed.
Key Binding: Grave character '`' with follow-up '1' to '9' will select a ICBM. Grave button can be configured in the settings.
Key Binding: pushing the SHIFT key during ICBM selection will select up to 4 ICBMs (instead of 1) if available.
Key Binding: F10 will now bring up the game menu with settings & exit option when pressed in-game. F10 can be configured via settings.
Key Binding: F11 for opening and closing the mini map (can be configurated via in-game settings).
Key Binding: '+' and '-' can be used to adjust the speed factor (keys can be remapped in the settings as needed).
Key Binding: key binding 'G' for dropping the flag was only listed but not actually implemented.
Key Binding for Editor: '1' to '9' to select terrain to draw.
Key Binding for Editor: '+' and '-' to add or remove map objects.
Tooltip Delay: reduced the default from 1000ms to 800ms. Also, the tooltip delay can now be adjusted inside the game's settings.
UI: alignment fixed for start game button compared to faction selection panel.
Balancing: Commando Robot is now more expensive.
Balancing: Orbital laser now more expensive.
Balancing: Robo Defuser has slightly more HP.
Balancing: Soldiers, snipers and spies have reduce HP (500 instead of the usual 750).
Balancing: Snipers are more expensive and a larger reload duration, i.e. shoot slower.
Balancing: Battleship has slightly more HP and slightly cheaper.
Balancing: Airship more expensive.
Modding: I updated the template.ZIP with the latest fixes and balancing (e.g. bullet hovertank with wrong sound FX). Please apply it and upload a map update if you have the map uploaded to the server. Thanks!
Modding: map trigger points now also show for which events they are used.
Modding: map triggers are now number starting from 1, i.e. 1, 2, 3 etc. so they are easier to spot.
Formatting: {SKEW} tag now formats text in italics.
Language: latest translations added - Thanks :-D
Language: misc. spelling bugfixes.
Maintenance: updated the backend libGDX library to 1.11.0 (LWJGL at 3.3.1). If you are on Mac OS X, you might have to re-install the binary if you got it (a) via itch.io or (b) our website. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Steam API: update the API calls to the Steam servers from v1 to v2/v3 with support for 64bit. Potentially resolves problems?
Investigated: investigated the error "not enough players to start" for private games. Could not reproduce. Based on screenshots, this is caused by a connection error, i.e. still connecting to game.
Bugfix: selecting a squad key, e.g. '1'-'8' on the keyboard a second time for a squad will center the map around the squad.
Bugfix: placing bombers into a squad could potentially have them drop their bombs on their own based. Disabled squad formation update for bombers and such to prevent one from nuking their own base.
Bugfix: the bullet hovertank made a sound effect for laser when in combat (effect removed).
Bugfix: build robots could get stuck trying to go to unreachable locations (blocked by other buildings but generally reachable). The build location is re-tried differently if it failed.
Bugfix: the orbital radar (and probably orbital laser/EMP) didn't work in unexplored territory. The placing failed because the territory was unexplored and nothing happened.
Bugfix: TAB-key could change the keyboard focus preventing the map to be scrolled via ASDW and arrow keys.
Bugfix: if a timer was set, the timer running out in "Escort" and "Rescue" objectives would count as a victory rather than loss.
Bugfix: if multiple target objectives where defined by "Escort" and "Rescue", they would count up too many times.
Bugfix: the tutorial intro mission got stuck when the build robots were unloaded 1-by-1 rather than via the button indicated.
Bugfix: (box-)select was not working when in the tutorial (offset was wrong due to additional panel).
Bugfix: updated the tutorial text to say that loot-crates are never random but always predetermined.
Bugfix: Robo 66 removed from chapter 01 due to inconsitencies with the comic. He'll appear later. My apologies!
Bugfix: The MP drone said "strong against missiles". It meant in defense against AA-missiles. Text removed as not correct.
Bugfix: internal map verification before saving added (to prevent potential problems if one were to test a map).
Bugfix: parsing the bundle.config during modding could potentially fail (bad threading).
Bugfix Crashes: recycling units could cause crashes due to list entries becoming 'null', while we still went through the list.
Bugfix Crashes: while having a way-path to a host unit that wasn't actually a host (way-type gone wrong).

2022-05-11: Update 2.1.38 - Steam EARLY ACCESS

Attack via Anti-Sub Jets: anti-submarine jets now move over water to drop their torpedoes against submarines/etc.
Wall Breaker: unit with strong melee-attack against walls added (GFX still missing, i.e. shown as harvester for now).
UI: Global button added that allows to select and launch ballistic missiles directly without having to select a missile silo.
Workers: roam around a little bit if idle to reduce likelihood of all of them to be at a single location when attacked.

Steam Windows Binary 64bit ONLY: updated the requirement to run the game to 64bit (32bit Windows binary is gone). The reason for the change is that the new ANGLE drivers didn't properly work on 32bit. Based on the Steam hardware survey only 0.38% of players should be affected.
