July Update - v1.2.1020

Ladder Season 2 Begins

• Ladder rankings reset on July 16, 2024

• Your best Season 1 ranking can still be showcased using the distinct Season 1 and Season 2 badges

Level Cap Raised to 100

• Various cosmetic rewards added for levels 50 to 100 (Badges, Avatars, Banners, Titles, Pets)

One More Turn...

• Players can now choose to continue playing after a single-player game ends

• This will not affect your challenge scores, Hegemon scores, or your level progress

• Game balance and performance may suffer as the game continues beyond its intended length

Retry Button

• Challenge players can rejoice in only having to click 1 Retry button to restart a challenge or any other Single Player game

• Retrying a Daily Challenge will count as a challenge attempt

• Using the Retry button will use the same map generation seed for skirmish games

Data Collection for Next-Gen AI

• We're collecting information on player behavior to experiment with creating a new AI

• This data is automatically collected in multiplayer games but is by default not collected during single-player

• If you wish to help us out, it can be enabled for single-player in the game menu. Be aware that this could result in a large amount of data being sent to our servers so is not recommended on a metered network connection

• This is experimental and in the extremely early stages - it may not lead to a better AI

New Achievements

• Beloved - Get 25 We Love You points. Rewards: The Beloved title and Bald Eagle pet

• Woodchuck - Control 10 lumbermills. Reward: Beaver pet

• Polar Super Power - Control 5 tundra hexes. Reward: Penguin pet

Multiplayer Game Technical Log

• A technical log file is now available after a multiplayer game which can be used to discern what actions the other human players took during the game

• On Windows the files are located at: C:\Users<USERNAME>\AppData\LocalLow\Main Tank Software\Hexarchy\player_stats_<GAME_ID>.json

• This contains statistics about the game in JSON format - you may need a technical background to make use of it

Misc / Fixes

• Can now view previous challenge results without completing the current challenge

• Warship now correctly gives a Victory Point like Catapult and Cannon

• Fixed the Daily Challenge screen Discord button
