- Patch release 1.1.19 - 7 October 2026
Bugs 'Steel Rain' Scenario fix: Crash: “duplicates units detected” was also misbehaving for this scenario(Luke) - an old scenario definition had crept in. sigh.

- Release 1.1.15 (bug fixes) - 14 September 2026
Bugs“Duplicate unit detected” (Luke) -this new error check would mis-report a bug for the player character if there was an acting version of it present. (e.g. The player character was Out of Action).Cottonbalers Anzio 2 had annoying very frequent soft error: “non overlapping victory conditions” (Daniel, Henk, Luke)AI was not always activating all of the units in a given organization in certain circumstances (Luke) - specifically if they were being maneuvered aggressively (“maneuver_offensive”) . Likely effected scenarios: Anzio Beachhead 2, Montelimar, Vye Les Lures, Siegfried Line. And in Three Nations: Benouville and Meyers Hill.
- Update 1.1.14 - 11 September 2026
BugsDelayed artillery crash (Luke)- If a barrage was delayed till the next turn (common), it would crash the game at the end of the barrage.Duplicate units being created if a core combat unit was fully destroyed (Luke) - root cause of above. Fully destroyed was rare since normally one straggler at least was given out at end of the scenario.
- Full Release 1.11 - misc armor, QOL, other minor features plus bug fixes - 31 August 2026
Features Prep for next campaign ;-)‘Side’ of tanks is now wider than before (Patrick, Luke) - reflecting more accurately both reality and the “Panzer War” rules we base our armor system on. This should making getting side shots on enemy armor easier. Of course that cuts both ways ;-) JgdzPanther 🙂 & JgdPz IV L70 QOL; more useful ‘Men’ Victory Condition button messaging (Luke) - the summary, imitating ‘Mission’, would report the next HIGHER victory condition for ‘Men’ which makes little sense since generally casualties go up not down and victory conditions get worse with. So now the button reports the next lower “down”) triggering threshold:Writers can now control ‘ambient’ sfxs (Luke) - e.g. interior sounds if in a building during an Interactive Fiction episode as opposed to hearing birds tweeting like usualCampaigns can have mouse over descriptions now (John, Luke) - like scenarios cu…
- Minor Update 1.1.10 - 4 June 2026
Features Dedicated UK infantry (not para) company (Luke) Flame tank now has dedicated animation (Sergey, Alan, Luke) Smgs and sten guns now have dedicated sfx (Chris, Luke) -before they were using generic MG. AT Guns now no longer have any movement capacity (Henk, Luke) -the teardown and setup time to move them would not be realistic in our scenario timeframes Bugs Bug: senior commanders (e.g. Captain/Maj) were not being allowed to be spotters if active junior leader (Randy, Luke) - if junior was himself Spent. Discord Failed Morale Checks would not update Orders status on RPG banner for unit in hex (Randy, Luke) - generalized better now so that any order change should force an update as well. Heavy casualty units would show no Orders at all not even spent ones! (Randy, Luke) - each casualty takes away a morale and at a certain extreme this confused the display code PIAT anti tank weapo…
- Minor Patch 1.1.8 - 4 May 2026
Features AT Guns now no longer have any movement capacity (Henk, Luke) -at the time scale of Burden there is not enough time to gear up and move such weapons. Yes some day we need trucks and jeeps towing :-) Bugs Crash: “Too many values to unpack” (Luke)- related to unusual state of save games folder. sentry

Cottonbaler start campaigns (e.g. “Italy Start”, “Morocco Start”) crash -when begun under SR1.1.5 with message: 'MasterReleaseConfig' object has no attribute 'italy_start'

Bug in recent SR1.1.4: -crash when loading save game: "cannot access local variable 'cam_descrip' where it is not associated with a value" Be sure to exit steam and restart to get 1.1.5 to update.
- Full Release 1.1.4 - 27 April 2026
Features QOL IMPROVEMENT: spurious too fast mouse clicks or key strokes in Interactive Fiction Ignored (Luke)- a repeated QOL complaint has been that sometimes folks inadvertently double click (or double keystroke)when doing interactive fiction and therefore miss a screen. A delay has now been introduced so too fast clicks are ignored. If you need to move through IF fast (previously seen) you will have to moderate your pace a bit rather than spam click. Or I am open to turning off for keystrokes and only doing for mouse clicks. Will be turned off for developers who need to spam click through fast often in next TR but want you exposed to it for a day or two to get a feel for what users will experience typically :-)Char B1, Pzkpwfw_B2 variants (Henk, Sergey, Luke)Three Nations- Meyers Hill: Added Barks to German forces.
