Total Tank Generals (Steam) Easy RNG Update v1.2 (2023 May, 4)

Features and changes:

• Added an “Easy” RNG setting
  • Attacks following a missed attack have a higher chance of success. (does not affect Assaults)
  • This option is enabled by default when first launching the game and can be changed both in the Campaign menu and Single Scenario selection.
  • Once set, the RNG difficulty setting cannot be changed midway through a Scenario. (It can still be changed before starting the next one)

• Added an “Alternate” RNG setting
  • Random Hit/Miss outcomes on this setting are manipulated to avoid long series of unlikely events (does not affect Assaults)
  • Once set, the RNG difficulty setting cannot be changed midway through a Scenario. (It can still be changed before starting the next one)
• Light, Medium, and Heavy Tanks as well as Tank Destroyers can now be upgraded to their Advanced versions
  • This functions similarly to how Light Infantry can be upgraded into Mechanized Infantry - the upgraded unit retains its Perk progression and tree
  • Basic Light Tanks that have the level 5 +1 armor perk selected in existing saves will transform into Advanced Light Tanks instead
  • In the future, we will look into Upgrading between Tank types and potentially other unit types as well. Please let us know your thoughts on the subject!
• New Loading Screens are now displayed based on played Nation and Landscape

• Reworked Recon AI to be more capable:
  • Now can capture empty points
  • Now can assault enemies if it has extremely high odds of winning
  • Now can attack enemies if it decides that an attack is likely to be safe
  • Can escape mid-scouting if it decides it’s no longer safe
• Added a new Sniper order to AI behavior:
  • Order can be assigned in the Scenario Editor
  • Focuses low-health enemy units in range
  • It can walk short distances if it’s safe and allows it to hit a unit in the same turn
  • It can escape if it determines it’s no longer safe
• Added units that use the aforementioned orders to existing Single Scenarios.
  (Snipers are not added to Campaign scenarios at the moment)
• Tweaked the difficulty of the Falaise Pocket Patton campaign scenario so that deploying on both sides is more viable as a strategy
• Tweaked the difficulty of the Battle of Troina Patton campaign scenario so that the German assault is not as top-heavy
• Tweaked orders of units in the Operation Uranus Zhukov campaign scenario so that Stalingrad is less likely to be left unattended 

Fixes:

• Fix Soviet Mortars having higher Morale than intended
• Fix Soviet Mortars and Cavalry costing less than intended
• Fix US Strategic Bombing dealing higher damage than intended
• Fix German Advanced Light Tanks missing the German Tank Defense bonus
• Fix German Heavy Tanks having a wider Soft damage range than intended
• Fix German Advanced Tank Destroyers having less Ammo than other nations
• Fix sorting priority to display tanks with correct ordering regardless of which nations are combined
• Fix one of the Anti-Air Gun perks using an old icon
• Fix roads going over the table frame in some Single Scenario maps
• Minor localization fixes
• Fix an error when some settings could not be loaded
• Fix units losing AP when an Upgrade perk is selected
• Fix a minor issue with AI deployment distance
• Fix Suppression having no effect if applied during the opposing Player’s turn
• Fix “Artillery is king of the battlefield” achievement only unlocking if AI performed the required action
• Fix “Carpet Bombing” achievement not unlocking when its conditions are met
