Generals!

We’ve just released a small hotfix (1.19.0.1) to address two of the issues that we’re seeing right now.

  • There was a particular crash related to the Spanish civil war kicking off into a four-way civil war and the new Army HQ feature.

  • There was an issue where the TaoG DLC icon in the main menu wasn’t lighting up properly if you have the DLC unlocked.

Both of these should now be fixed. Crashing and MODs

We also can see in our reporting telemetry that most other crashes players are experiencing right now are related to playing with mods. If you do crash, and you are 100% certain that you’re NOT playing with mods, please submit your crashes in the crashreporter tool so we can look into fixing them.

Balance and stat bloat

We hear your concerns with balance & stat bloat, and we’re looking into this. We also see the complaints about command ability cost being affected by the general planning skill, causing in rare cases the ability cost to be pretty much free. This was unintentional and will be reverted in 1.19.1.

More patch

We’re already working on Patches 1.19.1 and 1.19.2.

Our aim is to release the former (early) next week, and 1.19.2 should be not too far after that.

PATCH NOTES

Stability & Performance

  • Fixed a CTD when Army HQ units were destroyed in combat under specific conditions (risks happening in, for example, a 4-way Spanish civil war).

Bugfix

  • Main menu icon for TaoG now correctly shows ownership.
