ASHEN DESTINY UPDATE

0.8.2.1

New Additions:

  • Players can now enter their own Warlord's name, randomize their stats, and pick their own favorite flag!

  • The long-awaited Japanese localization has now been added to the game.

  • A new UI bar at the top of the screen displays your entire empires combined totals for Provinces Owned, Generals, Units, Gold, Food, Average Happiness, Gifts, and Meds.

  • The game's font has been completely changed due to player feedback. It now uses a more readable font.

  • Hovering over any province while taking an action will now display a custom 3D border for greater clarity.

  • When selecting an action such as Invade, Spy, Assassinate, or Send, provinces that are not valid for that action will now be visually darkened to show the player that they cannot be selected.

  • Battle maps now have an improved fog of war that only hides the outside of the maps. The fog of war colors now match those of the province biome.

  • The option for Full Screen or Windowed mode.

  • The option for VSync to be On or Off.

Changes:

  • Tax collection and food collection occurs every month now instead of once a year!

  • If you start a new map size of Small, Medium, or Large some warlords will already own multiple provinces.

  • The Province Information UI and Notification UI have now been color-matched with the main user buttons. (The upcoming Advisor UI will also match the same color scheme.)

  • All UI elements now contain a deep red color in place of the previous mild brown color.

  • The Actions Remaining counter and End Turn button have been moved to the bottom UI panel.

  • The bottom UI panel has also been expanded to stretch across the full width of the screen.

  • Fish in the ocean are now animated and very clickable when it is not your turn.

  • Warlord profile images have been removed and replaced with the Warlord's flag.

  • The ocean water has once again been tweaked and adjusted for a better look.

  • When selecting your home province at the start of the game, it now shows the province's stats instead of the Warlord's stats.

  • The UI screens for the Start and End of a battle have been overhauled to be more pleasing. (This will undergo even more improvements in future updates as well.)

  • The battle map water squares now have a new animated texture.

  • Surrounding islands now generate closer to your main island.

Fixes:

  • Fish and Boats have been fixed to be extremely clickable and can now be clicked even faster for free resources when it is not your turn.

  • When moving the mouse to the right side of the screen, the tooltips for the Province Menu would appear even if the Province UI was not being displayed. This issue is now fixed, and those tooltips will only show when the Province UI is visible.

  • Closing the Move Goods window now clears all the values back to zero. Players were able to send extra goods they no longer had.
