You can now play as the United Kingdom (UK).

You gave many wishlist items for the UK, and I decided to prioritize adding the UK first.

  • Greatly increased rate of political capital (action points) gain

Base action point recovery has been drastically changed from a 1-day unit (in-game time) to a 1-hour unit (in-game time), approximately a 24× increase.

I will continuously monitor the rates for gains (and losses) of action points, approval, and similar values.

Enabling Menu (ESC) → Option II and increasing the game speed will allow action points to be gained even faster.

  • Initial political honeymoon added

Modify so that the extra approval rating and action points (political capital) normally granted as a political honeymoon upon reelection are also granted when starting play (upon first election).

  • Italian added (partial translation)

Italian is currently only partially supported.

To set it, go to Option II > Developer Mode > Language.

Partially translated languages will be gradually expanded based on usage and other factors.

  • Fixed an issue where Russian and German were swapped in the provided languages.

  • Russia (2000 mode)Fixed an issue where, despite the initial election cycle being 4 years, elections were being held every 5 years.
  • Translation improvements

  • Russian: Fixed an issue where the U.S. country name appeared in government titles when playing in a non-U.S. country.

    Improve translation (e.g., Space Force)

My goal is to deepen the product.

The next update will include a wider range of content.

I appreciate your interest.

I will try even harder.

Thank you.
