本补丁主要内容在修正bug、平衡性、增强界面和用户操作、以及对Warlord的新特性“附属国”的修改。
We are almost ready to release the patch.
It's a bit later than we initially thought, so in the meantime, here's the list of changes that will be in it:
Vassal States
No longer possible to receive a request from an AI to declare war on one of his vassals (!)
Vassals can no longer accept one-sided defensive pacts (!)
Fixed happiness from vassal issue
You can now airlift into cities of your vassal
You don't pay supply costs for units inside your vassal's borders
Can no longer ask someone to make peace with a vassal. Talk to the master directly.
Vassal AI improvement
When you declare war on a vassal, you also declare war on the master (instead of the master declaring war on you)
Vassal AI no longer makes *all* their gold available for trade.
Vassal AI never refuse to talk to their master
AI better considers war consequences of accepting a vassal
Vassals no longer freed when master forms a permanent alliance
- Fixes the vassal/defensive pact exploit
Master/Vassal AI attitude reflects the implicit defensive pact of a vassal agreement.
Master/Vassal AI no longer give each other negative attitude modifiers for close borders.
Vassal AI does not get upset because of Master's defensive pacts with third parties.
Vassal cannot own plots within the city radius of his master's cities unless those plots are closer to his own cities.
If you have a peace treaty in effect with someone, you can no longer declare war on their vassals either.
Adjusted negative AI attitude for having vassals
AI no longer refuses to become a vassal because of "your lands too far" when you are actually neighbors
Great Generals
When a generic Great General is attached to a unit, the unit is no longer given a TXT_KEY name
Great Generals experience threshold scales with the ratio of Great People threshold to unit production rate
(so the threshold is the same at all speeds except Marathon where they require 1.5 time more experience)
Multiplayer
Anonymous play: real player names revealed on game end
Fix for anonymous mode not being always anonymous
Fixed some more anonymous play issues
- You can no longer see other player's names in the staging screen for loading a save
- You no longer see the player ID for "waiting to hear from..."

Graphics
Fixed non-shader version of Mehmed

Your cities can now have the same name as an existing city of another civ (to prevent renaming to expose your AI opponents)

(to avoid confusion now that duplicate names are allowed)
