Old World April 9th Updated Test Build

Test Branch 1.0.77261 Test 2025-04-09

Design

• Reverted Ship counterattack damage back to 1 (from 2)

• New map script Rejuvenation added (Wrath of Gods)

• Occurrences that affect water movement (eg Hurricane) affect player-controlled water as well, both for water units and land units using anchored tiles (Wrath of Gods)

• Hurricanes remove Anchored status from ships (Wrath of Gods)

Notes for Modders

• Five separate memory types (MemoryCharacter, MemoryTribe, MemorReligion, MemoryFamily, MemoryPlayer) are now one type, Memory. The base file name is memory.xml

• Mods that add memories need to rename files, e.g. memoryCharacter-add.xml should be memory-character-add or just memory-add. The dash after memory is the important part

• Event bonuses are now just Memory / Forget, for all memory types. Events should take care to apply the bonus to the right subject. For example, a Memory bonus applied to a SUBJECTCLASS_CHARACTER subject is the equivalent of the earlier MemoryCharacter bonus
