This is the version info and download thread for the BtS 3.17 unofficial patch. This post will contain the changelog as well as downlad links. I will be announcing updates as new versions are posted in this thread.

Currently we have version 0.19, here's the changelog (should be read bottom to top).

  • AI plane/ship retreating logic when city is in danger extended to Forts
  • Vassal's spies no longer caught in master's territory
  • AI logic on banning nukes tweaked to account for AI leader personality and the global situation
  • Non-native collateral damage tweaked (thanks guys)
  • Civilopedia will now display "replaced by" lines for buildings that get replaced by UBs
  • AI guided missiles will lean towards destroying resource-producing tiles as opposed to improvements like Towns
  • Damaged AI attack planes may choose to continue attacking if no defending interceptors are around
  • Rivers running through deserts will result in floodplains
  • Start location tweaks per SevenSpirits
  • Workers not as lazy, per Bhruic's patch
  • Glance screen reactivated
  • AI will no longer settle Great People in cities that are in danger of being captured
  • AI will try to retreat air assets from endangered cities
  • AI will no longer refuse to retreat damaged planes
  • AI will change civics during Golden Ages
  • Revised collateral damage formula for non-native collateral units, if modded in
  • Fixed bug in the map generator with water starts
  • AI may now try to use Warlords to create super-medic units
  • Fixed bug that prevented random events that target a unit from triggering
  • Access to the Barrage line removed from armored units. If units with access to Barrage and no inherent collateral damage are modded in, they will work.
  • Fixed AI defender bug for newly captured cities.
  • Made the AI more likely to use missiles on cruisers/subs to strike against enemy improvements.
  • Made AI ships prioritize retreating if docked in a city which is in the danger of imminent capture by enemy.
  • Civilopedia and mouseover help for units that cause collateral damage will now show the collateral damage limit (50% for Catapults, etc.)
  • Somewhat experimental AI change: Aggressive AI now considerably less likely to want peace if it poses more of an immediate threat to enemy cities than it currently faces itself.
  • Fixed unavailability of foreign civ demographics if playing with espionage disabled.
  • Barrage promotions made working again on Tanks and other units with no base collateral ability
