📌 Current Development Status

This mod is currently in the Content Refinement phase.

DLC Dependencies
This mod deprecates and removes several outdated UTTNH base features (such as custom Military Industrial Organizations and AI strategies).
To ensure all core systems function properly, you must own the DLCs containing the following mechanics:

• Tank Designer (No Step Back)

• Aircraft Designer (By Blood Alone)

• Intelligence Agency Systems (La Résistance)

• Special Projects (Götterdämmerung)

🛠️ Completed Core Features

• Codebase Optimization: Refactored and streamlined bloated legacy code from UTTNH. This significantly improves readability and general mod compatibility without sacrificing functionality.

• Technology Level System: Replaced vanilla tech year restrictions with a novel Tech Level mechanic. Players must now raise their overall Tech Level to research advanced technologies.

• Building Tier Limits: Introduced cap constraints for primary state buildings, allowing players to expand building caps through technological advancement.

• Overhauled Industry & Production Techs: Completely replaces vanilla industrial tech trees. Offers comprehensive passive bonuses while retaining single-direction vanilla tech mapping for backend compatibility.
