1.6.1 Patchnotes: ################################## # Feature and Important ################################## - New task force composition editor interface with much nicer flow - Added a reserve button to Fleet bottom bar. - Unlocking new ship hulls will now provide a variant with the same modules as on the best equipment variant of the previous ship hull level, to the extent possible, and hide the empty hull as obsolete in that case. - ctrl b now toggles strategic deployment for selected units - key k now toggles air training (kamikaze is moved to ctrl b) - FM won't be able to activate abilities if it is already active for all child groups - Taskforces with automatic split on will split into multiple taskforces if there is no naval base that can repair all ships at once - Sinking enemy ships will now award war participation ################################## # Bugfix ################################## - Underpaid, Undersexed, and Under Eisenhower achievement now correctly requires a 1936 start date. - Fixed an issue where several British focuses were bypassed and canceled at the same time. - Removed duplicate "Remove country leader" in Towards Indian Independence focus. - Fixed an issue where you could not take 'War on Pacifism" decisions to get rid of national spirit if you had above 80% war support. - fixed an issue where Manchukuo could demand Japan become their puppet while still being a subject of Japan. - Cave to the Germans, Maintain Trade Neutrality, and Cave to the British focuses can no longer be bypassed while one of the other mutually exclusive paths are in progress (thereby unlocking multiple political paths). - The United Kingdom can now progress to the end of the Decolonisation tree, even if India has already declared independence. - MacArthur will no longer lead the Loyalists while also fighting as a field marshal for the Constitutionalists. - Canada will no longer be subject to continued British communist pressure after Britain accepts the USA's demand to stand down. - Anti-German Speech decision now correctly checks whether any German civil war faction is fascist, and does not show duplicate decisions in case Germany is in a civil war. - fixed an issue with Reichskommissariats Ostland and Ukraine behaving weirdly - 'Expose the Belly of the Bear' will no longer cancel if some of the criteria is true. - The focus 'Expand the MLD' will now automatically bypass if the Netherlands or its subject does not control Java. - Australia can now invite King Edward VIII to Australia if they decide to stand by the King in the event of him pushing his marriage forwards. The focus can now also be bypassed if Australia becomes fully independent and is not in the Allies. - Fixed Secure the Dominions decisions still being visible if you secured them via civil war instead. - The subject of a country can't stay at war anymore if its overlord capitulate (if no faction) - Fixed a single port being naval strikes multiple times within the same tick creating confusion - all units of an army will be assigned to newly created garrison orders now - During peace conference, you can now satellite a subject even if its overlord is annexed or puppeted. - joining a faction
