Having weird vote issues? Give this a try.

To switch to the unstable branch, right click on Political Arena in your Steam library, select "Betas" and choose "unstable" from the dropdown. No password required.

  • Updated tracking of UI votes and UI vote queue. Previously a shared "CurrentVote" reference may have been improperly transitioned across votes, leading to tracking issues and passed votes being listed as failed, etc.

  • Fixed Event Window issue. The game's event queue was being dequeued twice when closing the vote window, potentially leading to race conditions

  • Capped the number of AI-generated votes per week. Committees and chambers now For most votes, the AI now only schedules them for AFTER their body's last vote on the calendar.

    • Quality of life: too many votes can get repetitive.

    • With too many votes, the value of getting your bill a vote loses its cache / no reason to spend PC to get a vote.

I do now, so let's get into it. (For those of you new to Political Arena, I'm the only person working full time on development, so whe…
