changes to openterst branch only. lots of pain in the head again so sorry for not much. changed site details appearance more, including fixing details text display and seperating out things that effect all outputs (controller, workers, level, sector conflict weariness) from things that affect specific outputs (sector and planet modifiers). implemented game over screen. added a victory condition…
changes to opentest branch only. the log may make it look like a lot but its not, i was in enough pain the other day to be sick from it so i didn't get much done. fixed bug in character profile which prevented opening updated production site detail view. added character interaction buttons to character profile in site details window, so the player can try to influence or replace the character u…
changes to opentest only. added base space value to buildings, so it takes more space to make a new building than increase the level of an existing one. decreased the building space for each sector. replaced no longer used text and values at top of sector info window production tab. added character name to character interaction buttons to make it more obvious who you're interacting with. change…

fixed bug in prediction suddenly changing massively two days in, as in sometimes as high as 10 or 20 percent, caused by pre-game prediction relying on values being calculated before law effects were set. temporarily removed recently added opinion modifier on production site output.
update to how production site controllers are replaced. fixed bug in sectors side list freezing after clicking enough times. added colours to production text for production site showing its production relative to normal, so you can see at a glance if it is producing well for its level and workforce or not, and know if its worth looking into trying to improve it. therefore removed the orange fro…
bug fixes for main branch. fixed bugs with moving and saving custom planet textures from images in advanced buttons. fixed bug causing same event to show up each day tick. parity in windows build. also changes from yesterday's opentest branch update.
changes to opentest branch only. added default icon for player interactions with characters. updated interaction tooltip to say "choice" in place of success chance if it uses picking a specific target after clicking the button. added chance % display on the select extraID screen, so the player can see what the chance will really be. game now tracks battle deaths, total for each side of any conf…
this update contains a variety of changes to the underlying state of the game, both to make it more focused on the feeling of being a planetary governor, hopefully more understandable, and very importantly (to me at least) improving the frame time during game day ticks (when it ticks over to a new ingame day). rework of production sites. before each site had a level that changed how many people…
changes to opentest branch only. unless i find bugs beforehand, this will probably be the main branch update tomorrow. added audio clip when an event pops up. audio sliders now save values. fixed character/faction action discovery and completion notifications missing name of action since int ID changeover.

changes to opentest branch only. made a big chunk of the remaining scripting code use int IDs and as a result removed many of the mid-gameplay conversions between strings and ints. gave jobs runtime int ID with conversion. started work on allowing effects to output a target directly, so other effects can use a specific target such as one effect creating a conflict then another could start an ev…

changes to opentest branch only. basically fixes for yesterdays refactoring update and other fixes. made item civ type modifiers be seperate per body, so bodies with different civ types can say have different rates of consumption. same for base consumption values. fixed bug in previous update preventing new planet from working caused by error in change to precalculating civ type modifiers. fixe…
changes to opentest branch only. changed production sites, characters, sectors, promises, chambers, advisor titles, factions, pdf units, battles, and conflicts unique IDs to ints instead of strings since these don't have meaningful names or need to be used for localisation. changes some scripting behind the scenes code to work with int IDs more efficiently. made production items use int IDs at…

changes to opentest branch, only on linux because i just got home + ssd problems + windows forcing itself to run the ssd on useless crap as much as it can = i'm too tired to deal with it right now. hopefully next update will be on both. secrets now have a set punish reasons count, so instead of all secrets giving 1 punish reason, now they can give a different amount for severity. secret punish…
changes to opentest branch only. added hostage filter to character list filters. resized character filter lists window to fit better. gave hostage localised text for faction holding him hostage in job title. changed character action likelyhood removing faction leaders having a higher chance, and adding characters with no job have a higher chance (more free time to scheme). added swap_job effect…
