CHANGELOG FOR RULE THE WAVES v1.24:

RtW v 1.24

Changes:
* You will no longer get a warning from intel that your own fleet has many ships in active state.
* Slight change in engine weight calculations to make it harder to build fast ships larger than destroyers early in the game.
* Fast (>20 knot) ships built with low levels of engine development now have a higher risk of breakdown in extended high speed runs.
* Selected ammo now shown in ship details screen.
* Ships under rebuild will not get an offer to complete with the best available fire control.
* Crew quality of ships under rebuild will drop slightly each month.
* Ships under rebuild but halted will cost maintenance as if in reserve fleet.
* Land targets will no longer receive protection from coal bunkers.

Bug Fixes:
* Fixed an intermittent path error with the ship side view generator.
* Line checkbox now updated when auto generating ship designs.
* Disabled the ship picture menu choice for submarines, where it would cause an error.
* Fixed a bug with DD prefix that caused it to use numbered version of the first DD name instead of the prefix.
* Rebuilding a bulged ship will not result in further speed loss.
* Fixed a bug that could cause ships to select long range ammo choice at short range.
* Fixed error message in some cases when surprise attacks are impossible.


CHANGELOG FOR RULE THE WAVES v1.25:

This release is a hotfix for an error in v1.24 where if a nation has no submarines the game will throw an error message.

RULE THE WAVES v1.26 Beta 02 POSTED

Download here (4.2MB): http://www.navalwarfare.net/files/SAI/RTW_126_Beta02_Update.exe

BUGFIXES:
* Fixed a bug where enemy nations could under some circumstances order ships in your yards when you were at war.
* Fixed a bug that could cause AI nations to build ships with illegal gun quality.
* Fixed a bug where you could occasionally be offered to build another unit of ships under rebuild.
* Fixed a minor bug where ships under construction could be delayed from effects of undeveloped shipbuilding even though the ships were built abroad.
* Fixed a bug where after a first rebuild, the minimum rebuild time for subsequent rebuilds would be the last rebuild time for that ship class.
* Fixed a bug that could mean that hurrying construction saved money in some cases.
* Fixed a calculation error that could occur when opening an old design using the load design button in the ship design screen.
* Fixed an error in the French war missions where a "Fleet battle" had become a cruiser engagement.
* Seized ships being built at your yards will now appear in your build area.


CHANGES:
* Added function to change number of guns per turret when designing ships (right click on turret in list).
* Improved some messages.
* Smoothed out the 900t kink in the engine/weight curve for destroyers.
* Ships scrapped during manual build of legacy fleet are now fully refunded.
* Mitigated tension rises between nations with very unequal fleet sizes. (Should make it less likely to stumble into wars with large nations when playing very small nations, and keep small or weakened AI nations from being as stupidly provocative).

* Added text for secondary battery intereference in accuracy report.
* Added build time and monthly cost to ship design screen.
* Slightly increased sighting ranges in good weather.

* Added an option to vary technologies. Selecting this means that research may be slower or faster than historical in some categories, and some technologies may work worse or better. This is to increase replayability. This only applies when starting a new game. Please note that when selecting this technology may deviate considerably from historical.

Anyone try this one yet? I am looking for some reviews.

I figure this would be good to put on my laptop for when I travel.
