- Five resources (energy, steel, food, luxury, high-tech) with per-city stores, a world market, delivery and material upkeep.
- Resource-producing tile works built outside cities; every nation opens with the works its economy needs.
- Real game-icons.net art replacing the dummy icons for the new resources and works, with the credits updated.
Marching into enemy territory changes visibility every step, and each change
rebuilt the whole on-screen fog band. A tile's fog depends only on its own
level and its six neighbours', so the exact dependency radius is one tile, far
tighter than the vision radius.
- Every tile owns a fixed slot in one fog buffer, so rebuilding a tile never
shifts another's vertices and only the touched row spans are re-uploaded.
_applyKnowledge now diffs the visible/explored sets and hands the renderer
the changed tiles; buildFogTiles rebuilds them with their rings. On a 100x100
map a frontier patch is ~3-4 ms against ~80 ms for the band.
- A pan that leaves the built rows now builds only the newly exposed rows, and
the escape margin scales with the viewport, so dragging rebuilds rarely.
- _frame schedules the next animation frame before doing any work and catches
an error, so a one-off failure can no longer stop the frame loop for good.
- Added tests for the per-tile patch and the incremental pan.
Marching into unexplored or enemy land reveals a tile every step, and each
reveal rebuilt the whole-map fog mesh: about 1.8M vertices and 50 MB on a
160x160 map, regenerated at the rebuild throttle. Walking through
already-explored home land reveals nothing, which is why the stutter only
showed up on a border crossing, with a single unit.
- buildKnowledge now takes a row range and builds only the rows on screen; the
row table stays full length so the existing row-banded draw keeps working.
- _flushFog rebuilds on a visibility change or a pan to a new row band, still
coalesced, and the draw clamps to the band that was built.
- A mode/zoom change schedules the band rebuild instead of building the whole
mesh, and uniform interior tiles skip the per-vertex blur kernel.
- Tile improvements (fortifications, radar towers, coastal cannons), trenches,
zone of control, support-unit capture and launch transports, with parabolic
barrage arcs drawn between attacker and target.
- Focused research that pours points straight into the chosen technology, with
per-technology progress kept when the focus changes, plus repeatable levels.
- Popularity reworked to integer points, war and pillage effects, minority
policies and month-over-month arrows on the nation summary.
- City progress bars, square improvement buttons, a technology tab of wide
short cards with progress bars, transport cargo readout and double-click to
open a city panel.
