cool stuff, can we get a list of all the changes?

We'll try to get a bit of a changelog out, but I don't have that on hand right this second. But we did want to get the Update link out as soon as we could.

The update will be added to the install-update check and the in-game update check shortly, hopefully Wednesday morning (have to wait for the rest of the team to wake up to stage it - plus the fact that the heatwave in Southern Ontario (Canada) has taken our internet connection as one of its victims ...

Oh thank you thank you thank you, the game was going so slow for me it took me hours to go one month, September to October in 1950. The proxy war in Korea might have had something to do with it, but if this helps game speed thanks

edit: Ho, it's an installer... Fine then.



"Game speed improved"- Thank you SOOOO much!

Update 0 "Change log"...

Since Update 0 came out within a day of the street date there didn't seem to be a need for a full change log (it's not as if anybody spent weeks learning workarounds for the original versions), but since this request has come up a few times here are the major changes from the release versions. Not sure it will help much with the heat, but anything to take your mind off it! (PS - I've never seen anyone in Wisconsin use Celsius before - it must the be the proximity to the Canadian border! and yes, it's 36 C here right now... )
