changedUpdatesOverhauled the right-side "Bookmark" panel by integrating it with the notification system. Various notifications and vassal proposals that used to appear in the center of the screen during play are now all collected in the right-side "Bookmark," organized by category. Panels that appear during pauses, such as the loot-acquisition panel after a battle victory, continue to be displayed in the center of the screen as before. Vassal proposals now internally record the state of "a vassal is waiting for the player's response," and this state is preserved even after saving and loading.
addedUpdatesAdded a "Have a vassal do it" button to the order notifications in the Bookmark. Pressing the button opens the order panel, letting you issue the order to a vassal. When you have no vassals, the button is grayed out, and hovering over it explains why. This makes it clear that even orders you cannot yet accomplish on your own can eventually be entrusted to a vassal.
addedUpdatesAdded a History Timeline feature. Added a timeline display to the lower half of the world collapse level UI. The size of each nation's territory is shown over time by the thickness of its color. War names are generated automatically by the system. Clicking a war name lets you rename it to your liking. You can zoom in and out by scrolling.
addedUpdatesAdded an option to enlarge text in the Options panel. Steam post image
changedAdjustmentsOptimized large-scale battles with many units and the processing at date changes, making the game run more smoothly.
changedAdjustmentsChanged the map's "national flag display" / "faction flag display" toggle buttons to icons for better clarity.
