New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.588_Zenith_Consistency This one has a number of smallish improvements. The most notable of these is a fix to on-death effects from Dismiss, which should lead to more consistent results that you would expect when you’re zombifying enemies. There are a large number of updates from Strategic Sage to the quickstarts;…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.587_Deguardianing This is a small one that is basically a dewormer but for giant guardian spacecraft. A fix in the prior build to a 5-year-old bug caused massive shifts in balance that were unintended. Fixes are nice, but giant shifts in balance are not; aside from opening the floodgates to…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.586_More_Polish This is another small one, mostly bugfixes.

New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.585_Sidekick_Updates This is a pretty small one, with mainly updates to the Sidekicks mod, by Badger. This also suppresses an occasional error about memory leaks that is very much a false positive (it usually is indicative of a thread being a bit slow, not an actual memory leak). Rather than…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.583_MP_Hardening This one has some mod updates to the Sidekicks mod, and then it also solves some issues that could occur in multiplayer. Most notably, this makes it so that doing a resync in the middle of an MP game no longer causes a rash of spurious errors, with an…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.582_Tuning This has some tweaks and tuning in general, and then updates to a bunch of mods. This also removes a folder called MSBuild, which was only useful to modders, and which was being (erroneously) flagged by Malwarebytes as a trojan. Since this was consistently annoying and alarming a number…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.581_Mod_Updates This one is mostly focused on some updates to mods, including fixing the AMU mod so that it no longer errors on start. It also tweaks a couple of minor text things in the main game to make them more clear. Enjoy! In other news! Been talking about Heart…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.580_Curve_League This one has quite a long laundry list of small and midsize tweaks, fixes, and changes. Primary thanks to Dismiss, but also SirLimbo and Arphar for a variety of the items. There are a number of new experimental features that you can opt into if you’re interested (see link…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.576_Tooltip_QoL This is another hefty new version. It includes a number of fixes and improvements, some of the fixes rather crucial; there was a regression that was affecting some people’s savegames, and may have been related to my improvements to memory reduction in the game. Dismiss seems to have sorted…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.572_Polish_And_Reduced_Memory_PressureTwenty-two days since the last one, wow. Time really flies sometimes. This one has a bunch of things to polish up the game in various ways, and reduce memory turnover and memory usage in certain late-game situations. Also some bugfixes that help some specific crazy savegames. If you’re playing certain…
