changedCHANGEDRules for transportation modes (Horse-towed, motorized, mechanized) have changed a little to allow modders to have an easier way with doing... modders things.

changedCHANGEDM18 Hellcat US tank texture has been updated.

addedCHANGEDFor Harmony modders: Unit.cs now has three new functions (bool): CanBeHorseTowed(), CanBeMotorized() and CanBeMechanized(), which are all used in the store UI and by the AI logic.

changedFIXEDTransport options in the store would show up for tanks if specific stats were set (modded units only).

changedFIXEDWrong tooltip displayed in the store for units identified as: launch sites, bunkers, land mines, radars. Game was wrongly giving the ‘around engineers’ tooltip even though it wasn’t always true.
