Various other network stability improvements.
Timers, Hotseat & UI
Fixed a bug preventing combat from starting on templates with tournaments and “Hell Light Arena” in hotseat mode.
Players now receive +5 seconds on the timer after each stack ends its turn in combat.
Changed the rules for timer penalty accumulation when restarting a match.
Fixed incorrect display of time spent in the campaign.
Redesigned building windows on the city construction screen.
Buildings with a choice are now more prominent: options are displayed separately, and the text indicating a choice must be made has been added to the button.
Camera tracking has been disabled in the following situations: entering a town and leaving without a hero; dismissing a hero.
Balance
Difficulty levels in the campaign and on random maps have been adjusted:
A new AI difficulty level has been added to random maps, sitting between Normal and Hard. The full list in ascending order: Easy, Normal, Moderate, Hard, Unfair, and a separate Multiplayer difficulty outside this scale.
AI behavior on Hard and Unfair difficulties has been slightly adjusted. As these levels are intended to challenge experienced players, AI strength on these difficulties has been increased.
Balancing of Easy and Normal campaign difficulties is ongoing. Changes have been made to the missions “Never-ending Conflict,” “Burning Hearts,” “Deal with a Vampire,” and “Alvar Diruil.” A mission restart is recommended to apply changes in full.
We will continue monitoring difficulty levels in both the campaign and standard play to ensure every player can find their comfort zone. Keep sharing your feedback in the comments and on social media.
