Making History: The Second World War Updated

Now that The First World War has been released we’ve had time to refocus some attention on The Second World War. This update isn’t large but we wanted to get something out quickly. There are a few feature improvements but we’ve mostly tried to fix bugs.

The issue that caused the game to crash when changing the nationality of a colony has been resolved. We also found that disbanded units would return full MPU levels even if the unit was damaged. That too has been fixed. Improvements to UI elements and an optimization to camera zooming may help with some memory crashes. You can also now use the Q & E keys to tilt the camera. More updates are listed in the Release Notes below.

Work on the next SWW update has already begun. Please feel free to offer ideas.
