World Order: Global Power · published
A cleaner map to the same deep game. Related screens are grouped — one Command Center for everything needing attention, one World Power screen, a tidier Economy. Nothing was removed and every old shortcut still works. Press Ctrl/Cmd+K anywhere to jump to any screen.
Your money now adds up. Fixed two bugs that charged you twice — research budgets and pensions were each billed to both the deficit and the national debt. Debt that rises without a deficit is now itemized by name, so you can always see what you're paying for. The RESERVES indicator has an honest explanation of what it actually measures.
Funding now holds. Infrastructure, tourism, healthcare, education, defense postures, energy and food security used to drift back down no matter what you spent — sustained funding now genuinely holds a level, and every screen tells you where it settles. Neglect still decays. Re-applying a budget no longer costs legitimacy.
Central bank independence has teeth (thanks BlindIdiotGod): a fully independent bank refuses direct rate orders, rate-change costs scale with the size of the move, and parliament is now a genuinely different instrument.
Sanctions coalitions fixed — partners you win stay won.
Localization — every text the game can display, in all 13 languages, now including the messages that appear after you click something. Verified by booting the game in another language and reading every screen.
