1.23 Progress Thread
#1
Welcome to the 1.23 Progress Thread. Here we will keep a running change log of everything that has been implemented for 1.23.

We will be formatting things down a bit more in thread. I will add separate headers for versions and additional lines? columns? Whatever, describing if changes are bug fixes, features, balancing, mod tools, documentation, maps, or whatever else.


V1.23 focuses mainly on a redesign of the contracting system. This redesign in v1.22.1 should make the contracting system easier to use, a little less "clunky" (within the limitations of our poor GUI system), and a bit more flexible in terms of moddability. This will allow me to expand into some new features, such as racing contracts. Following that in v1.22.2, the plan is to expand the licensing system to allow you to manufacture for other companies (and visa versa) rather than just lease out intellectual property for the AI/You to use. Then wrapping it all up, v1.22.3 (and any other minor builds for v1.23) will focus on minor features and bug fixes in the two new contracting systems. Of the minor features planned, a major one to note is improvements to the auto production system.

I will continue to work on documentation on Saturdays and Maps/Mods on Mondays.

The following is all included in v1.23, but broken down here into minor builds for Testing users.

v1.22.1 Change Log

- Engine Feature: Added more contracting system data to external .xml files for modding.

- GUI: We now show all parts/vehicles in the contract list, but color code the listing based on if they pass or fail the requirements, or if you have submitted a bit with that unit.
- Bug Fix: Fixed Base City Map Miami Per Capita for 1900-1950.
- Bug Fix: Italian translation file causing magazine not to work.

This means you can fill multiple contracts with 1 production line. Or if you have a really big contract, it may require multiple production lines.
- Bug Fix: Several fixes to a full screen resolution regression bug caused by a fix for a rare bug in v1.21 and older. This was pushed as a hotfix for Default build users. Testing build will get this for v1.22.1

The game will pull from this factory first to fill the contract requirements before it gets the required vehicles from other factories. You can find the drop down in the Assign Contract panel. Only the factories which are producing the vehicle is listed.
