Checksum: f9d6

- Fixed one of the Infantry Eq’s not having the new value.
- Added missing localisation to Super Heavy Cannons.
- Added new Road cannons to Tank Tech.
- Nerfed Revolving Cannons. Increased cost of 12ic from 8ic to x1 and 23ic from 15ic for x2. Increased weight to 6 and 12 for x1 and x2.
- Slightly increased Fuel Refining tech bonuses by +5% and +2.5% for gain per oil and gain from refineries. +10% and +5% for the ‘43 and ‘45 ones.
- Baked In Rules war dec tooltips should now properly update when a nation changes country points.
- Baked In Rules for declaring on chinese warlords will now properly account for whether a warlord is an ai or not.
- Added decision for communist nations to adopt the NEP as long as Russia has completed the “Planned Economy” focus. (joining via decision does not boost the planned economy factory output modifier and yes, you dont have to be allied to russia to use this.)

LIE:
- Curbstomped Liechtenstein’s gold trade bonus values. Civilian Goods modifier divided by 3, others more. Since its a dynamic modifier, tooltips might lie as to the factual change of the buff. (Might rework it into a less stupid and laggy static idea, but its a pain so this balancing change in the interim.)

TUR:
- Ottoman should be properly red. (If it aint, scream at simpy.)

- Pioneer’s Company +2 entrenchment was swapped for +0.20 per infantry battalion.
TANKS

- Super Heavy Cannon 1’s resource cost reduced from 5 tungsten to 3, added 1 steel cost.
- New modules: “ATGM”, “Super Heavy Howitzer 1-3”, “Super Heavy Cannon 2-3”, “Modern Fixed Superstructure”, “Composite Armor”, “Fire-Control System”, “Diesel/Gasoline/GasTurbine Powerpack”, “Tank Radio IV”

- Increased the delay at which light ships open fire, from 8 hours to 10 hours since the start of battle. In effect, capital ships have 4 hours before light ships can engage, instead of 2.
- Removed minelaying and minesweeping buffs from tech. (Somehow, 0*0.2 = 0.2. I have no words.)
- New modules: “SAM”, “Fire-Control System IV”, “Nuclear Depth Charge”
OTHER

- Gave Danzig the ability to form the Kingdom of Jerusalem (Kingdom of Heaven!) - Deus Vult Baby
- Fixed more Middle-Eastern Formables
- AI should keep 20% of its troops from pushing a frontline.
- Changed priorities for assigning convoys, land lease should be the lowest priority now, which should end the “bro reduce land lease, i cant import resources”. If you want more lease, reduce resource imports yourself.

- Civilian Industry Oil Use [Open Beta]. Factories have been given a fuel drain value to simulate peace time oil use. Civs were removed from SOV, USA and ENG to balance the oil imports that will happen from ai and player nations. Will gather feedback in suggestions whether the game feels laggier or how it affects economies of nations.
- Updated game rules with newer Road stuff. Mainly china unification and some Sweden stuff.

USA:
- CivOilUse Balance - Removed a total of 15 civs from random states.

ENG:
- CivOilUse Balance - Removed a total of 3 civs from random states.

SOV:
- Civ OilUse Balance - Removed a total of 8 civs from random states.

24/11/2023 Hotfix
Checksum: 2a56

- Added SPG, SPAA and TD support divisions. These divisions may not be used alongside the towed equivalent, so for example a Support SPG cannot be used alongside Support Artillery.

29/11/2023 Patch
Checksum: 44bd

AIR:
- Jet Engine 1’s speed was buffed. Thrust was buffed across the board by 5.
- Jet Engine 2’s and 3’s have been converted to use the new air speed (+% speed instead of +speed)
- Buffed air speed for Medium and Heavy frames to lessen the speed gaps between Lights, Mediums and Heavies.

TANKS:
- Buffed Modern Tank 1 chassis, increased reliability from 120% to 150%, increased armor from 65 to 70
- Buffed Modern Tank 2 chassis, increased speed from 5.2kph to 8kph. (was an outdated value.)
- Nerfed “Riveted Armor”, removed breakthrough and defense buffs, added -5% armor and -5% hardness malus. (there is a reason this type of armor isn't common on advanced tanks)
- Buffed “Cast Armor”’s breakthrough and defense to 5 from 4, added +2.5% hardness.
- “Bogie Suspension” module was given +5% speed and +5% reliability buffs as well as 0.5 ic cost.
- “Interleaved Suspension” module was given a -5% reliability malus.
- Buffed “Rocket Launcher” main gun modules. They should be a more reasonable, cheaper alternative to howitzers now, instead of a straight up downgrade.

SUPPORT:
- Locked the ability to use both Support Rocket Artillery and Support Artillery at the same time.
- Buffed Support Rocket Artillery by 10%

- Modern Airframes research start date was changed to 1946. (Heavy frame was 48, probably my mistake. This is done to space out the airframe research, as it goes 3 years, 3 years, 4 years then from Advanced to Modern it used to be 1 year now its 2.)
- “Modern Light Tank” and “Oscillating Turret” research finally have an icon.
- Moved Jet Engine 2’s and 3’s into its own separate research branch under the Jet Engines tech. (Icons are from Road to 56, just resized to fit the box.)
- Equipment conversion specific tech was removed, buff was moved to the Machine Tools line. (it was separate to not have the buff appear if Death or Dishonor is disabled, trying it without DoD the buff still shows but it doesn't seem to crash.)
- Moved Fuel Refining tech one year later, First fuel refining tech has a start date of 1937.
- Last three Machine Tool techs +10 factory output was swapped to +5 capacity. “Max Factories in a State” buff was removed.

- Ability to form “The United British Isles” for was removed for England. Was too easy for England to eat one single 1 point nation and instantly core it.

- Equality Laws were flipped around. It didn't make sense that “Total Equality” removed production capacity, when “Women Workers” added production capacity. Now patriarchy are less recruitable % and less Cap for +pp gain daily, while "Total Equality" is minus pp for recruitable and capacity buffs. (Will get some more balancing further on.)


GER:
- Added missing BOP decisions.
- Added missing “Establish Provisional Capital” decision for West Germany.

USA:
- To slightly reduce idea clutter, ship cost bonuses were all rolled into “Bureau of Ships”
- Same with the air tree, all focuses except “Escort Fighters” fuse into “Air War Plans Division” then into “US Air Force” or “US Army Air Force”
- The “Air War Plans Division” event “Air Force Asks For Greater Autonomy” will have pp consequences in the lower “Air Support” and “Strategic Bombing” focuses. For example, promising autonomy to the Airforce and not delivering on it will result in -50pp. Delivering on your promise will result in 25pp.

PRC:
- PRC’s design companies from pre-AAT were adopted for AAT MIO’s.
- Fixed an outdated focus effect that added the pre-AAT designer buffs to PRC. Will no longer give buffs. If AAT is present, will now add 2 MIO sizes to Taiyuan
- Fixed outdated value for “Guerilla Warfare” economy law, which made PRC have 12% consumer goods use instead of 2%.
- “Eliminate Illiteracy” now requires “Adopt Soviet Style Education” or “State Controlled Education” as well as “Institution Reorganization”
- Education focuses now require an amount of factories be held by PRC, just like the RoC education reforms do.
