Hi Guys!
At this point, I feel the War Room Hack II is complete enough to test for bugs and weird issues so it can be a fully awesomeised hack. Patch is here What's Complete: Maps Time Limits CO Mods Tutorial Unlocks AI CO Power usage improvements What's not Complete: Bugfixes List of things to be done before 1.0 release: Fix bugs in the buglist New Title Screen List of Things to Be Done (when they're done) Eventually Confirm S-Ranks with all COs on every Map Known Bugs: Kindle and Von Bolt's music have the occasional loud squeak. (Low priority) When music is off, the map's intro music will continue playing instead. (Low priority) Kindle and Von Bolt's names will clip on the CO Dossier (Low priority) What To Report: Mechanical Bugs (Weird damage amounts, units stopping when not supposed to, etc.) Tiling Errors (Wrong tile on maps, map edges, missing shadows, property changes background when capped, etc.) Times! (I need to know if I've set times too low/high) Units with bad stats (Unusual ammo/fuel amounts) AI Doing absurd things (Not building air units on an air map, etc.) Comments on other things! 
Enjoy, report back and I should be able to get out a grand amazing final version soon-ish.
Edit: Maps With Confirmed S-Ranks All of them! Well done! |

New Patch Time!
Redownload from the first link. I've compiled a changelog for the patch here. This will probably be the last patch before I produce the 'final' patch. I'd also like to note that I'd like people to play through the following maps if possible! I've received little feedback on them: •Sorrow's Bluff •Barracuda Bay •Bombardier •Riverside •Comet Catcher •Silo Storm •Unholy Alliance Patch Change List Fixed Tiling Errors on these maps: •Sorrow's Bluff •Whirlpool Updated Map Properties: •All Maps: Enemy COs will now default to their 'native' army colour (Eg, Lash will be BH, Sonja will be YC) •Some Maps: Updated AI Type to build Air/Navy appropriately and break pipe seams. •Riverside: Hawke (P2) Now under player control Updated layouts of these maps: •Sorrow's Bluff •Waza •Iron Knuckle •Marshlands •Frost Bight •Bombardier •Whirlpool •Riverside Updated unit scripts on these maps: •Sorrow's Bluff •Waza •Whirlpool •Bombardier •Barracuda Bay Updated CO stats: •Kanbei's Fighters are now 120/120 instead of 120/130 •Sami's Capture is now +30% instead of +50% •Sami's Infantry are now 115/100 instead of 130/100 •Eagle's aircraft are 115/110 instead of 120/100 •Caulder's Submarines no longer gain +10% Defence when he deploys his CO Unit •Updated Lash's CO AI to use COP less often compared to SCOP Updated CO Descriptions: •Fixed Sami's D2D description Updated Speed Time Limits •Updated based on feedback from this topic
Updated Game Scoring Ranges •S Rank - 300 Points •A Rank - 299 to 270 Points •B Rank - 269 to 230 Points •C Rank - 229 Points or less Updated Names of Maps in the War Room Screen to prevent clipping: •Legion Peninsula •Sorrow's Bluff •Barracuda Bay Added Text Intros to all maps: •Descriptive text with Map name, Author name and Speed Limit for 100 Speed. Outstanding Code Bugs: •Caulder's Negative Funds Overflow •Caulder's incessant COP Activation Outstanding Graphics Bugs: •Single pipe seams look silly •Kindle/Von Bolt's names sometimes clip Edit: I'm feeling excited

This looks really great, Xenesis. I've never played this game before, but from how you're making it look, I think I would like it |

The series is well worth a shot if you like Turn based things
And Update: Unit Scripts: Talysman Map Layouts: Silo Storm Map Tile Errors: Crescent Isle New Feature: Deterministic Weather Unlock Sturm, Von Bolt and Caulder What's Deterministic Weather? When COs who cause random weather changes are in play (Olaf, Drake), these changes will occur on set days rather than via RNG. For example, a single Olaf causes +10% chance of snow. Previously, this would randomly occur with the RNG. Now it will occur every (100/X) days, where X is the percentage chance of weather change. A single Olaf in play will cause Snow to fall at the end of Day 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, etc. How Do I Unlock Sturm, Caulder or Von Bolt? If you S-Rank a map, you can use them on that map. Go! Edit: Okay, time to get this thing finished before 2011 is. 
This refers to only the current revision of the map and it is all that I know about personally. If you guys have already done some of these and can fill in the blanks, please tell me! Some of the maps may have their time limit altered in a more lenient fashion, regardless.

Update: File at usual link
Music: Von Bolt's Theme Kindle's Theme Music should sound a LOT better and be at a similar volume level to the other CO Themes. |

From the first link as per normal!
Map Layouts: Split Mountain Map Headers: Riverside (Now Kills Pipe seams!) Battle Bridge Marshlands Game Rules: Score is always calculated from Player 1 Updated Music: Sensei's Theme (Fixed Tempo Bug) Edit: Very Quick Emergency Update Fixed a crash involving Von Bolt. Redownload if you grabbed the last update. Edit: For those playing at home Patch Update: 
New Feature: Tutorial - Basic rundown on scoring rules, changed features and unlocking stuff. S-Rank recording - The game now records which COs you've S-Ranked a map with. Not retrospective, sorry. But if you upgrade now all future wins will be recorded. It's currently not displayed...that's to be done in future. |

Patch Update:
AI's CO Power Activation Rules: Caulder Max Grit Adder Colin Notes: I've written new code that governs how the AI decides to actually activate its CO Powers. I'll get around to most of the COs. Essentially you shouldn't notice a huge difference, but it will hopefully cut down on the turns where the AI will blatantly waste a CO Power (Grit using Snipe Attack with no Artillery for example!). Caulder will now also only use his power if he doesn't have a CO Unit and actually wants to deploy it. Should make playing Vs a Caulder AI much more fun |

Guess what? It's patch update time! Now with a double-whammy of bugfix! Get it from the initial link!
Patch Update - Bugfixes: •Kindle's units will now properly receive her terrain boost when attacking pipe seams - the game now uses the tile the unit is currently on, rather than the one it started on. •Caulder's units will now properly receive his CO Zone boost when attacking pipe seams - As the Kindle fix. •Caulder's units will now properly receive his CO Zone boost when attacking enemy units. |

The first is a bug I introduced in the last update. I highly recommend you update it ASAP...if you want to play as Caulder.
Bugfix: •Caulder's CO Unit no longer may de-CO when attacking as a human player. •Von Bolt hitting himself with his SCOP will result in paralysis that appears to be an allied unit to the current player. Tweak: •Von Bolt now uses a Black Hole HQ and Black Hole style units. |

WIP for the final feature required for the project!
No Bars or +/- or On/Off yet, just getting this far is awesome. But this adds a Page 5 to the CO Dossier 
Icons: Luck, Capture, Price Reduction and Counter-Attack Strength Plains, Forest, City and Mountain Attack and Defence Strength Plain, Forest, Rain and Snow Movement Vision Range, Piercing Vision, ?HP and Fuel Reduction On/Off Mistwalker, Soul of Hachi, S-Rank |

Yup.
Also, Page 5 is almost finished. Here's a few examples. Mainly just need to fix some bugs. And make a map name go gold when you S-Rank it with all COs.
Icons from Left to Right, Top to Bottom: Luck, Capture, Price Reduction, Counterattack Strength Plains Power, Woods Power, City Power, Mountain Power Plains Walk, Forest Walk, Rain Walk, Snow Walk Vision Plus, Piercing Vision, Hidden HP, Aerial Fuel Reduction Mistwalker, Soul of Hachi, Current S-Rank Progress, CO Cleared S-Ranks 
Caulder on a map where an S-Rank has been claimed (+1) 
Lash under her SCOP 
Colin with his 20% price reductions. 
Sturm with all his terrain hax (The values are for wheel units in forests and plains for the plainswalker one, the game auto-compares.) |

Hey guys, now you can play with it for yourself! (Woo!)
Anyhow, patch update. The list of things to finish is getting ever smaller. Patch Notes: New Feature - Extended CO Intel in CO Dossier. New Feature - S-Rank completion display (A map with S-Ranks recorded for every CO will appear blue) Bugfix - Spann Island's time limit editing in code to 10 days to match the text like it is supposed to.
