==============================================================================
User Interface
==============================================================================
You have a new option to have the map focus on an enemy move during hosting (Options/Media window)
Units prevented from merging with others stacks will keep the option from turn to turn.
Clicking on Rail/River move will now recalculate their path.
The "Save Under a new name" procedure (ctrl-click on the save button) has been rewritten to prevent file locking.
A new document, the leaders file has been added to the docs folder of the game.
Remaining number of turns is displayed when you pass the mouse over the turn text.

==============================================================================
Scenarios Additions and Changes
==============================================================================
Some duplicates volunteers brigades removed.
Problem with sharpshooters having a cavalry name fixed.
The St Louis Massacre event has its loyalty change fixed.
General Lee should unfix correctly in the second part of 62, at the latest.

==============================================================================
AI
==============================================================================
AI considers better the entrench level of the enemy when judging when and where to attack.

Excellent

Thanks Pocus!!

Will the update work on current games or do you recommend a restart?

everything should work on your current game, except events which have already fired, as you can guess. For events who have not yet triggered, the game will dynamically use the modified ones.

Once again,

Thanks for your quick response.

Now thats service....!!!

Excellant work chaps!!!

Drew

Wow,

What a day , first we get a new server & now we get a new patch !!!!

Thanks Pocus for adding back in "Remaining number of turns is displayed when you pass the mouse over the turn text."

Chamberlain

Thank you guys. Your support is really amazing!
Cant wait for more User Interface updates

Thanks!!!!!!!!!

The message resizing for 1024 x 768 is working perfectly now...my old eyes thank you

Pocus you are astounding!!! Amazing!!! Merci beaucoup!!!

Chris in Detroit

Pocus, do you ever find a little time to catch some sleep?

Once again, thank you!

Merci Pocus.

The game is developing nicely.

Great job! I am in your debt .

I really like the ability to track moves during the turn processing time. This is a nice move to fixing my complaint about the long downtime waiting on turns.

Thanks for fixing the CTL + Save bug. That was a big deal.

Indeed. Seeing enemy units on the move is really nice.

(Oh, and thanks for the rest of the fixes )

I can't believe you haven't sticky'd this yet.

no need to stick when people post in a thread. A sticky thread is less visible than the topmost unstickied one

*bump*

This patch has the same name than previous one : "AACW patch.zip"
Is it intentionally or maybe is it possible to have version number indicated ?

Well, since the patch posted is always the latest and its always cumulative, I guess it doesn't matter.

Once you unzip it, the version nr. is there.

Having said that, I have all the patches saved in one folder, just in case I decide to revert to an older version (don't ask)

Yes this is intentional, all the links of the file library are permanents, this is what we want. When you unzip, each file as a version number, as expected.

Consider the ZIP has a wrapper, that you remove to get the actual file, nothing more.
