ECONOMY & TRADE
• World-market imports now cover your commodity shortfalls — up to 60% of any unmet demand, when partners will trade with you. Blockades, wars and sanctions still starve you, exactly as they should.
• Production grows with demand: private industry expands into profitable gaps alongside your ramps, with a yearly change indicator per commodity and trade totals at the top of the Resources screen.
• Every inflation driver now tells you what reverses it — and above 12%, a BREAKING THE SPIRAL advisory names your two biggest drivers with their counters, including a warning when your real interest rate is still negative.
• Foreign reserves explain their monthly movement, driver by driver.
• Tax and policy sliders gained +/− fine-step buttons and type-a-number fields.
WAR
• WAR HISTORY: every ended war is archived with its full cumulative bill — casualties, prisoners, every category of equipment lost, and the total cost. The in-war loss table now shows war-to-date totals beside the weekly numbers.
• Negotiated land deals read honestly: "Ceded X%" — never falsely as a full annexation. Small deals always visibly move the map, or say plainly when a transfer is economic-only.
• A signed peace enforces a six-month cooldown before war can be re-declared on the same nation, unless they're actively working against you.
GOVERNMENT & MORE
• Ministers acknowledge success and offer support in hard times — plus a REPLACE ALL cabinet option.
• Transport project capacity scales with your administration and economy.
• A more compact Organizations screen, fixed index-chart labels, and localization polish across all 13 languages.
