Hex of Steel News

- Change : Updated Japanese tank stats.
- Change : Italian / Romanian / Finnish NATO counters colour.

- Fix : Bombing a tile twice in a row would result in the tile’s graphics turning black.
- Fix : French MG team weren’t properly renamed.

- Added : You can now make peace with other countries. To do so, here’s the logic (temporary, if someone has a better idea, go ahead, you know the drill) : As a weak country, you need to pay 5 times your production / turn money amount to the country you want to make peace with. As a powerful country, you need to have more than twice the number of VPs as the country you want to make peace with.

- Fix : The number of core units never going up in campaign (thanks Doc for that one).
- Fix : Resupply could be done twice. This actually was a bug, I only know understood what it was. So basically, you know that to resupply it is based on a % of supplies coming to your unit from the closest city. Well that thing is, since you can only get a % of the total, so for example 80% and you are out of fuel completely, well you can get 80% back MAX. So when you did it twice, it basically went up a first time to 80%, and the second time, that you shouldn’t have been allowed to do, basically killing the supply mechanics, was going from 80 to 100.
- Fix : On windows, quick saves wouldn’t be saved with time + date because on windows you can’t use “:” in a file name. Lame somehow, buy a Mac !! (So now instead of being written : 01-12-2020 8:30 its gonna be 01-12-2020 8h30. At least it works now.
- Fix : Broken achievement : kill a unit using a V1.

- Removed : Possibility to mod NATO counters. I will strive to obtain the best looking counters myself, please, tell me if you don’t like them, and if so, show me what I should do instead, that would greatly help. If you want to even make them yourself / design them, please do, and I will happily use yours in the game ! You will even get your name in the credits :)

Hey everyone !

So, I don't know if you guys used the editor, if so, how did it go ?

Since multiplayer is coming soon, I thought I'd make a quick video tutorial on how to create and upload your own scenario to the workshop.

I made a video on youtube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxF1bO0Pk3E

It's really short, 4min52, and I show you exactly how to create a map, upload it to the workshop, then subscribe and play it for yourself (or in case its someone else's map for example).

Hope I will see more of your content on the workshop !
