What's New in Version 7.3.9

ADDED
• Nothing.


CHANGED
• Multiplayer compatibility -> 7.3.9.
• Tanks (units in the Tank category/type) now will require -50% movement points when moving on Plain tiles.
• Embarking or disembarking on a destroyed tile is no longer possible (ships/trains/paratroopers).
• Reduced the amount of triangles renderer per hexagon and unit and flags on the map. I have reduced this amount of drawn triangles from 9M when zoomed out on Europe to a little under 2M. This translates as a direct +50% FPS boost (due to rendering being cheaper). It should work fine on more recent machines, I am not sure yet for older hardware, in the case it is worse on older hardware, please let me know so that I can reverse the change.
• You can no longer build bunkers in enemy territory.
• Rebalanced north african front in Europe 39 (standalone).
• Replaced the Counter Bomber graphics for something less visually distractive.


FIXED
• Notifications showing 'enemy got reinforcements' or 'allies got reinforcements' were not displayed as intended.
• In map editor, event action spawn unit issues.
