Hello everyone!Let's get straight to all the new stuff. 😋Unit Visuals 💂This update adds maybe one of most notable changes to frontlines. You can now add some extra flair to your wars by displaying a line of units across active battle lines. These frontlines will also be reinforced from the nearest core or capital.Note that these units don't have actual health of combat stats, they are just visual (at least for now).Sorry for the very compressed gifs, they look a lot smoother in game 😄You have some options to configure how exactly you want the units to appear. Edit these from the bottom-left-corner gear icon. You can make a thick and snappy line of units, or a more slowly moving and scattered bunch. The choice is yours, make sure to do some experimentation.This feature was originally part of a mod for the game but it (and the next one) was so good that me and the mod creator agreed I should implement the core mechanic to the base game.Flag Wave 💨🏁Flags now look even cooler by having a wavy animation and a shadow behind it. If this wave doesn't fit your type of flags you can disable this in pause menu settings.Even Better Revolt Borders ✊Revolt Borders should now follow terrain features like mountains, deserts and crossings more closely.You can also preview possible revolt borders around a city by holding ALT and then hovering over it. This works in the default and diplo map modes. Note that these might not match exactly with a revolt if the revolt has rightful territory in the area.In Terrain View, you can preview a city's region that ignores country borders.In upcoming updates, I might use these new borders for something more, we'll see.List of Current Wars 📋There is now a visible list of current wars along with their participants. You can click on the flags to move the camera to themThis is a bit experimental feature, depending on how many wars are active in your scenario this bottom row might fill up fast. If this is distracting, you can disable it in in-game Disp...

Hey everyone!This update mainly focuses on the Flag tools, and should make painting them easier. The biggest change is for the line tool, which can now go in any direction, as opposed to just straight horizontally and vertically.To draw a line: Hold shift, and click and hold on the initial position and drag towards the end point. Then let go to accept the current line.Circle tool has also been improved in a way where it now shows a preview of the circle when you hold down Alt. In addition the shape of circles has also been improved, so hopefully they now look smoother!In addition, some new colours, patterns and icons have been added to the Random Flag options.For maps with lots of occupied territory, you can now Right Click on an occupation at it will select its rightful owner. This is especially useful for quickly selecting dead nations.v4.4.2 Full ChangelogAdditionsAdded more Random flag patterns, icons & colour schemesAdded option to delete any broken custom scenarios and savesBugfixes & ImprovementsImproved Flag Painter toolsLine tool (hold shift before drawing) can now draw diagonal lines and you now see a preview before letting goCircle tool (hold alt) now shows a preview before drawingCircle tool circles should now look better and smootherYou can now undo clearing the flagRight-clicking on an occupied tile will select the nation with rightful ownership of it (but not when painting territory)Updated scenarios World Map 1914, 1938, 2026 and Asia 2026In Territory and Terrain paint bucket tool will be deselected when switching the main tool offFixed a bug where you couldn't bucket tool nations own territory when painting rightful territoryFixed a bug where some resolution options in Settings may not have shown up
