Premade generals
There is a new option for the number of premade generals allowed in the custom game lobby. This number can range between 0 to 3. Premade generals are generals that you can set up ahead of battle and bring into the game.
The developer recommends the default value of 1.

Win condition
The domination bar will no longer reset when victory location domination is interrupted. The score board will now track every players domination progress.
Passive income
Players will no longer get 2$ per second without having any victory locations.
There is a new option for passive income added to the custom game lobby. Passive income will be drained equally from all remaining victory location on the map, and be evenly distributed between all remaining teams.
For example
if passive income is set to 0% in a game with 2 teams and 3 victory locations
Your income will be somewhere between 0 – 6 $ per second
if passive income is set to 50% in a game with 2 teams and 3 victory locations
Your income will be somewhere between 1.5 – 4.5 $ per second
if passive income is set to 100% in a game with 2 teams and 3 victory locations
Your income will be somewhere between 3 – 3$ per second
The elite unit Hacker will still drain 2$ for its targeted victory location regardless of the passive income setting.
The developer recommends 20% to 30% for a nice balance between light and heavy unit types.
