Hi everyone!

Japanese Localization 🗾

こんにちは! The game now has Japanese localization! Hopefully this brings the game to an even bigger audience :D

Random Flags 🎨

With this update, new countries will start with Random Flags instead of blank ones. You can also create random flags in the editor.

Test them out and let me know what you think! In future updates I plan on adding more different symbols and such to the generator pool.



Flags now also appear in Statistics!

Time Scale Setting 🕰️

For those of you who think the current speed at which the date in the bottom advances is too fast, you can now change it by going to settings and changing Time Scale to Days.



This makes it so that on normal speed 7 days pass every 1 second, instead of the default where 1 second equates to 2 months.

These two time scales are completely separate so changing it in the middle of the simulation isn't really wise. But test out which feels better. You can of course just ignore the date if you want :)

Custom Alliance name options 🛡️

In a previous update a way to add custom random names was added in the form of a "RandomNameSettings.json" file. Now, you can also add additional alliance name options by creating a list with the key "allianceNames".

Alliance names can be regular text names, but if you want the name to include a nation or city name in it once generated, you can include a {0} symbol in the name, which will then be replaced. As always make sure to follow basic-json syntax rules. And if for some reason the file isn't working, you can delete/move it and the game will generate a new one at startup
