Dear skippers,

We just finished working on the first hotfix for B129. It brings some bug fixes as well as a few general improvements.

This update doesn't affect saved game states in any way. If you would like to find out more, please take a look at the changelog below!

Changelog

Technical:

- Updated Unity from 2019.4.29f1 to the latest Long Term Support release 2019.4.30f1.

Missions:

- Fix: Mission with recovering gold from a merchant ship wasn't stating how much gold needs to be loaded. Note: this change may take time to propagate to all language versions of the game.

Localization:

- French localization update by FvJ and Placebo.

World simulation:

- Fix: Convoys were sometimes shifting away on the map after approaching them.

User interface:

- Fix: It was possible to add a single sailor to the same shift multiple times.
- Fix: Order of targeting a ship by the officer was sometimes not working and it was necessary to click a few times.

General:

- Added possibility to throw overboard items from the main storage.
- Adjustments to the bearing present in periscope views to ensure that it remains visible in all view modes.
- Fix: Game was becoming stuck right after launch on some systems, if game couldn't connect with Steam for any reason (antivirus could be one possibility).
- Fix: Fix to an issue with some game states not loading correctly. They will load fine after this update.

Yours,
DWS
