1.5.5

- Added : Weather option in the settings. You can toggle ON or OFF the weather (Rainy / snowy). Meant to help with poor performance on older devices. Or for those who don’t want to have rain / snow.
- Added : Generic units for Turkey and Spain.

- Change : Recon unit bonus coming from having an allied recon units AROUND the enemy. Before, it was the recon unit around our unit attacking.
- Change : Various code optimization.
- Change : Map opening optimization, units sounds aren’t loaded anymore per unit. Now, sound will be streamed when needed / loaded when needed. Before, ALL units on the map were loading and caching both move and attack sound (saving 400 ms on the Europe map).
- Change : Reduced RAM usage on mobile (around 200 MB).
- Change : Netherlands infantry helmets.
- Change : Camera height limit to 150 on mobile, that’s a try to fix potential crashes for people who have them on the Europe map. Let me know if this solved it ! Thanks !
- Change : Smaller NATO counters.
- Change : Recon units don’t get an attack bonus from other recon units.
- Change : Remove fog of war auto ON and infinite ammo / fuel auto ON on campaign scenarios on mobile (no achievements there).
- Change : Boats can now resupply like normal units (Figured I would make the change since the algorithm has been greatly improved, and the AI seemed to never go back to the harbour to resupply, so). Resupply ships still are a thing and will be useful to be sure your boats can get supplies, since their supply route can be plundered / blockaded really easily

- Fix : Units in trains can’t get ou even on cities.
- Fix : On mobile, quick game player slots were getting inside the side of the container.
- Fix : Player settings not loaded properly on mobile.
- Fix : AI buying horsed motorized artillery.
- Fix : When playing more than one country with NATO counters ON, it would not actualize the colour when doing next turn.
- Fix : Objectives panel was under the UI (Buttons).
- Fix : No click sound when clicking the NATO button.
- Fix : Attacking neutral units wouldn’t make the country declare war on you (ex: Poland in 1939).
