Armoured Commander II News

Small but important update today, if you played without the Player Commander campaign option enabled you likely encountered a serious crash that has now been fixed. Changelog follows:



FIX: Incorrect display of end-of-day display in fullscreen mode
FIX: Crash when trying to advance to next combat day when Player Commander is off

Another minor update, fixing a few bugs and making a few minor changes that should improve the play experience. Changelog follows:



ADD: Key in Command Phase to Button Up all hatches
ADD: Temporary sound effect for Assault Gun vehicles while moving
ADD: Very Long and Extra Long message pause length options
FIX: Bug where the Supply tab on the Campaign Day layer was not working or displaying correctly
FIX: Ability to rotate the non-existant turret on the StuG III B
FIX: Bug where weapon jam test was be triggered before confirming the attack
FIX: Crash when trying to scroll the day journal
FIX: Rarity factors not being applied properly to player tank selection menu

Very minor update to fix the mouseover info on the Campaign Day view while in fullscreen mode.

Edit: Also changed the Pyinstaller settings to enable the console - this will create a black console window behind the game window, but it appears to have been causing issues for some players without it, and it should not detract in any way from the game.

I just uploaded a very minor update to the 4.0 branch, with just some minor fixes. This is the last planned minor update, so unless there are game-crashing bugs that emerge, I'll be working on the 5.0 major update from now on. As always, you may have to restart Steam to download the update, and saved campaigns are still compatible. Changelog follows:



ADD: Campaigns can now define restrictions on tank models availible at start of campaign, used in Winter War (Finland)
FIX: Campaign day VP now properly modified after choosing to return to base

Based on player feedback and testing I've made a number of minor changes and improvements, as always if you encoutner any apparent bugs or crashes please report them in the discussion board. You may have to restart Steam before this update is downloaded and applied. Changelog follows:
