Version 1.7.0
This update includes the framework I am going to use to let character interact with you. Let me know if it works for you, and I will add much more content.
I addition, I tried to find possible sources of the department change errors. I cannot reproduce these myself, so please let me know if that did something.
1.7.0:
Gameplay Changes:
- added political campaign contributions
- added ceo name and gender selection
- added autosave for ship design (gameplay options)
I just realized, that the weird install problems (missing files) and the 'division by 0' error on startup are caused by obsolete fonts.
Version 1.6.9:
- removed fonts, install problems and 'division by 0' error fixed
Untitled
Version 1.6.8
I focused mainly on 'cleaning up', so that hopefully the errors at department change are fixed.
Also, I tried to tackle the issue that makes the pop-up menus for some people non-clickable - something I could not reproduce, so please let me know if that works now.
Gameplay Changes:
- completed contracts are being removed
- contract color code changed
- raised starting funds for all difficulties
- raised financial goal
- added button 'Remove Assignment' for selected ships
Bugfixes:
- (hopefully) fixed the 'menus not clickable' problem
- fixed: memory leaks that caused problems with
department changes
- fixed: combat zone reduction
- fixed: ships not able to assign because of budget
- adapted tutorial texts
