Hey all,
New version inbound. After a great deal of recent bugfixing, I believe this version can once again be declared stable. With the integration of 4UC beginning soon, I'm aiming to end off 2UC with a stable release so that anyone coming back will still have a reasonably enjoyable game experience. That won't necessarily be this release, but it might be!
Thanks to @axatin, @azum4roll, @KungCheops, @ilteroi and JohnsterID for their help in patching up the recent versions, including this one.
Without further ado, the changelog:

Without further ado, the changelog:
Code:
General
- Added a RIVER_CITY_CONNECTIONS CustomModOption, allowing for Rivers = City Connections to be turned off

Beat AI to World Wonder: 75 turns -> 60 turns
Lowered AI's City-State Influence: 50 turns -> 40 turns

If provoked or if they deem it necessary, they may still choose to attack
- Personality is now immediately updated when a player switches from AI to human or vice versa
- Removed AI personality (Boldness) speeding up Anti-Warmonger Fervor decay, which gave humans a combat advantage
- All promises are now reset in both directions when a player dies
- Reduced AI likelihood to backstab players who are stronger than them militarily or economically
- Slight reduction in memory usage
Worker
- Worker AI should now be better at prioritizing good improvements in good plots
- Will now evaluate improvements based on total yields with improvement, rather than yield increase from improvement
- Should now properly evaluate existing improvements in tiles

UI

- Fixed two Lua runtime errorsLink: https://github.com/LoneGazebo/Commu...download/Release-4.14.1/Vox.Populi.4.14.1.exe

Version 4.14.1 has been released. Link above has been updated.
Changelog:
Code:
General
- Code cleanups
AI
Diplomacy
- AI is now only willing to offer more/accept less for peace due to war weariness if they're unhappy or in terrible shape, so it's less easy to rip them off
- Improvements to AI handling of war weariness in peace willingness
- Performance optimizations to war and peace logic
- Removed "ignore warmonger penalty for attacking a City-State if player has attacked a City-State within 10 turns" check (poorly thought out anti-exploit)
Retained "ignore warmonger penalty if player has attacked the same City-State within 50 turns", though, as that's less exploitable
Worker
- Added improvement evaluation scores for Golden Age Points, Border Growth Points and Tourism
- Tweaked values of existing yields
- Worker AI will now prechop features for future planned improvements
- Worker AI should now be better at planning improvements with SameAdjacent and SameTwoAdjacent properties
- Worker AI should no longer build non-town GP improvements on city connections
- Skipped some unnecessary computations in Community Patch Only, should make it a bit more efficient
- Fixed bug where improvements with large negative scores would be valued very highly (mostly affecting GP improvements)
- Simplified improvement resource monopoly calculation and make it consistent (should solve rare issue of improvement indecision from the AI)
- Worker AI will now ignore luxury value if the luxury is banned
- Added a small static value to existing improvements
- Removed an unused function
UI
- Reverted change to remaining moves indicator
Bugfixes
- Fixed longstanding bug with opinion bonus from sharing intrigue (it would go down after sharing twice), which caused a crash due to a new bug-detection subroutine
- Fixed AI cancelling combat operations when they or their target becomes a voluntary vassalOnline as of 11:27 PM CDT on July 21. Savegame compatible with version 4.14.
