Game Update: Version 2026.4

[Darkmyre]

 

Added

• NPCs will now gain experience points (XP) and level up similarly to players. NPCs receive $2 of their national currency and a happiness boost when levelling up.
• Industry Ministers can now set a fee for each tier of medicine, as well as hospital treatment, to be charged when citizens (including NPCs) use the hospital.
• Industry Ministers can now set a maximum power cost, defining the most the nation will pay per unit of power purchased from the market.
• New building art generated using AI assistance (Nano Banana 2), as the first step in a plan to modernise the game throughout this year. Note that new images may not show immediately for all players, due to server/browser caching.

Changed

• Increased the level cap from 50 to 100.
• Maximum health now scales with level for all characters. A character's maximum health is equal to 100 times their current level.
• NPCs will now only purchase Beverages, Food and Medicine from market listings with more than 100 stock available.
• Weightlifting now requires 5 AP per attempt, and no longer reduces health.
• Consuming medicine now heals 5 Health per medicine tier.
• Medicine production costs have increased slightly.
• NPCs now generate battlefield threat and take injuries on the battlefield like players.
• Armour now provides 25 points of protection per tier.

Fixed

• Fixed a bug that could prevent Military Alliances from being correctly triggered.
• Fixed a bug preventing battlefield threat from being updated correctly.
• Fixed a critical bug causing only an NPC's first attack to be counted.
• Fixed a bug preventing NPC avatars from being displayed on the battlefield.
• Fixed NPC profile links on Battle Summary page.
• Improved NPC purchasing logic, so that NPCs will consider lower tier food they can afford, instead of starving because higher tier food is too expensive.
• Miscellaneous other bug fixes and code cleanup.
• Fixed law proposals being blocked on the old Congress election date, until the new Governor system is completed.
