Sexy. I also noticed there's an option to turn loyalty penalties for line of sight and supply on or off. Does this option completely eliminate production penalty or is this only a supply option?

Also, I wonder how close this version is to the 1936 sandbox of Ultimate edition?

Thank you!

Edit: How do I take new bonds? I cannot seem to find the UI for it. I hate it enabled before starting the game and I see other countries taking them.

It is only me or anybody have this too;

[Balthagor]

Confirmed,

I'll try and get a fix posted this weekend.

[Kristijonas]

Sorry, but where is the bond UI?

[Balthagor]

There is no specific UI for the bonds at this time. Reviewing some of the debt/bonds issues is ongoing.

A fix was pushed this morning to resolve the graphics issue. It also adds a spinning rotor to some of the helicopters (rest coming soon).

[Kristijonas]

I see annex and liberate buttons were also fixed. They were some weird frames before. Thank you!

[Kristijonas]

Game crashes sometimes when I'm at 80-100% zoom out. I'm rarely zoomed out that much and it never crashed when I was up close.
In case this could be a memory issue, I have 8Gb ram, Radeon 7790 1Gb, dual core Sandy Bridge.
3D models off
Hardware mouse off
Vertex something off
Video buffer fix off

Enabling Vertex-something makes game menus become extremely flashy and epilepsy-inducing

[Balthagor]

Can you reproduce it? Do you have a savegame that crashes consistently, or least regularly?

There are no known crash bugs at this time.

[Jack16]

Is there any way to play as the resurrected nation? I tried to do it with ISIS. I resurrected ISIS as Syria. Ported the save file to multiplayer, but there is no way to see ISIS in the playable nations.

Is it possible?

[Balthagor]

There is no official way. Modders may be able to help you out, try asking in the mods thread.

[Jack16]

I see. Thank you for answering though, I might ask in the modding section, just don't hope it will be to hard to mod in...

[Spookyashell]

Sure hope this fix the "leaking" petrolium bug I've gotten in every single game I've started (with the US at least). Saw steam had updated my game so I guess its this patch. Ops, no it updated to .14

[milivoje02]

I have the question for scenario 1942. What is with Croatia(NDH) and Serbia? The are in the scenario map but they cannot bee choose to play with and they are not colonies of Italy and Germany. So what's up with them?
