Free Features and Important

New Stability and War Support mechanics replace National Unity to better model the state of your nation and many decisions and changes to go with these
New focus tree for Japan
Overhauled and expanded German focus tree: added new focuses for the Industrial, Air, Naval, and Fascist paths, and improved certain existing ones.
Added Chain of Command * Can now put Field Marshals in charge of Generals leading armies to get bonuses from both
Generals now have 4 skill values * Attack, Defense, Planning, Logistics instead of a single skill.
Traits are no longer lost on promotion of commanders
Commanders can (and usualy do) start with new personality traits

New historical template namelists. Increased immersion when meeting AI and a lot of power to letting player control how things get named
New retreat mechanic. We now separate between withdrawing and forced retreat meaning you dont get overruna nd crushed when ordering retreat on units and falling back wil lrequire a lot less microing
New interface for looking at lost and sunk ships
Massively improved production interface with more filters, collapsing, drag and drop and allowing more than 15 factories to be assigned to a single line
New War overview with factions, filters, sorting. It also has a summarized war overview which we recommend. Wars are now much more fluid to be able to handle 3-way wars and avoid lots of issues in the past with war merging etc.

Infrastructure now effect how much resources can be extracted. Build up an area to unlock more, bomb it to hurt output

Major change to how area defence order units are moved around, they should now stay in their positions more and when moving be much better at picking nearby units to move

AI is now allowed to go more in the red on equipment building for transitional upgrades in the field

Stability & Performance

Fixed CTD where unit can look like it is moving without having a path (yes, this was a strange one)
Med various code safer to avoid theoretically possible but improbable crashes.
Fixed a resource leak of the ambient battle sound which also led to heavy audio falloff computations after a long time of watching battles closely. Sound effect instances were being stopped but never destroyed.
Added an error and prevented a crash if a supply area is missing
Fixed crash when loading a savegame while in a peace conference
Fixed crash when adding manpower to casualties when the killer was not at war with the owner of the manpower ( for instance volunteers ), casualties will now be added to the logicalcountry of the army in such situations
Fixed memory leak due to old messages piling up over time that were never used
Optimized the amount of calculations related to front systems (base mechanics required by the battleplans) used by the volunteers battleplans.
Optimized a function that was doing a "country tag lookup" (an internal thing) which was a bottleneck at some moments of gameplay.
Fixed CTD and by the way the inconsistency between the ordinary AI, and the volunteers AI.
Lots of memory leaks fixes in general (Leaked memory means that the game consumes more and more RAM over the time).
Fixed several CTDs in a new division names system.
Fixed CTDs that occured after loading the older save games.
Fixed CTD that sometimes happened when going back to main menu.
Lots of memory fragmentation preventions and fixes. (A memory fragmentations may cause the game to crash after a very long sessions).
A game consumes a little bit less of RAM now.
Fixed CTDs related to the naval transportation code base.
Fixed corrupted memory allocation attempt caused by the AI code.
Fixed CTD in border combat code referring to a deleted unit.
Fixed CTD when trying to naval transport a divisions but there is no naval route (regions being blocked).
Fixed CTD in AI strategy referring to the leaders being deleted by spawning a civil war.
Fixed invalid access to a deleted memory in the decision status (making very low probability for a CTD).
Fixed CTD in going back to main menu. Airbase access code was referring to the carriers after deleting them.
Huge optimizations in how we calculate the relative air superiority. This unlocks plenty of bottlenecks in: units, navies, air calculations (and much more)...
Another large performance optimization in the naval unit transportation system.
Optimized the amount of the network commands spammed by the AI.
Small optimization in pathfinding for the naval transportation. Units ready to set off from the same location will get only 1 naval pathfind done and share the data.
Optimized performance by about 20% in places by reworking the careless usage of "can battleplans be executed" function.
Got rid of the several seconds stall on daily updates. Related to the sending/receiving volunteer forces.
Fixed plenty of very long game freezes.
Fixed CTD caused by switching the focus trees.
Fixed CTD caused by incorrect re-assignment of the armies between the theatres.
Fixed CTD if you launch the game "hoi4.exe -start_tag=ABC" where ABC is an invalid country tag.

Fixed rare CTD after deleting defensive line.

Fix for probable rehost CTD
Fixed the major cause for the CTDs in the peace conference window

Fix for a freeze when you ended up in a civil war at war with your own puppets (o_O). Fix stops all inter-faction wars so modders need to be careful to kick ppl before war etc.
