Hi everyone,

In addition, improvements have been made to the Worker AI and to AI Pantheon and Policy selection. Thanks to @azum4roll , @KungCheops and @L. Vern for their contributions.

Full changelog:
Code:
General:
- Observer Mode ends automatically when a civ wins the game, and the player is given control of the winning civ
- If "MAX_TURNS_OBSERVER_MODE" in (1) CP/Core Files/Core Values/CoreDefines.sql is set to a non-zero value, observer mode will end automatically after the specified number of turns
- Multiplayer: Added "Force Resync" button in non-EUI
AI improvements:
Worker and Improvement Planning AI:
- Improved AI ability to plan adjacent improvements (for example Celts 4UC Oppidum, Incan Pata-Pata/Farm combinations)
- Improvement planning much better at taking into account potential monopolies
- Improvement planning takes into account puppet status when evaluating plot yields
- Worker AI better at spreading out Shoshone Encampments to maximize the area in which the defense bonus is given
- Workers less prone to move to a different area and to delay building improvements that take a long time to build
- Improved strategic road planning
- Automated workers perform all actions on turn start, instead of waiting until the end of the turn when building improvements
- Fix AI not wanting to build Great Person improvements that weren't much better than the existing improvement
- Fix AI Great Persons not doing anything when there's nothing they can build
Pantheon Selection:
- AI takes into account if a civilization has a Unique Improvement that requires removing forests (Goddess of Renewal)
- AI understands that multiple cities can benefit from one mountain within range (Goddess of Nature)
- Reduced AI valuation of Great Person Points (Goddess of Beauty, Goddess of Wisdom)
- Pantheon selection for India rewritten: Instead of always taking Goddess of Beauty, India will now make a random choice between selected pantheons (namely Tutelary Gods, God of Commerce, Ancestor Worship and God-King)
Policy Selection:
- Fixed AI treating Shoshone as a warmonger, which caused Shoshone to take Authority in almost every game
- Instead, Japan and Assyria are now treated as warmongers
Code Improvements / Modmods:
- Added code for extra yields from improvements when in a golden age (for 4UC Persia; database table "Improvement_GoldenAgeYields")
- Fixed policy column HappinessToScience not working correctly in VP
- Preparatory work for 4UC Tersane
- Bugfixes
- Fixed several crashes
- Fixed game sometimes freezing on AI China's turn
- Fixed a multiplayer desync
- Fixed some trade deals being canceled twice, and research agreements being completed twice
- Fixed a long-standing bug that allowed land units to embark onto water plots with an enemy civilian unit on it, killing the civilian in the process
- Fixed city governor not switching plots from one city to another for the AI
- Fixed AI settling recommendations ignoring Fog of War, which was a cheat both for humans and the AI
- Fixed incorrect vassal maintenance cost in the Vassal Overview
- Fixed trade deals between vassal and master being canceled when an embargo is placed on the vassal
- Fixed two errors in the city tourism tooltip
- Fixed an error when loading the Squads mod
- Fixed incorrect description for Mongolian Khan (the unit does deal damage to units in adjacent forts and cities)
- Fixed CS alliance status not always being updated when influence decay caused another player to have more influence than the current ally
- Fixed duplicate "A city was captured" notification
- Removed notification "Peace with the city-state is now possible" when the CS was conqueredOnline as of August 2, 2024, 4:53 PM CDT. Not savegame compatible.
