We are happy to announce the first update for Rule the Waves 3. We have fixed several bugs and typos, tweaked templates to improve AI ship designs, and added a button to pick a ship's name from a historical list. You can download the update here.

What’s New in Version 1.00.008

• Made sure tech sharing agreements are terminated if the nations are at war.
• Fixed a tension reduction bug
• Fixed some typos.
• Made slight adjustments to 1890 engine weight calculations and starting ship speeds.
• Fixed a bug in battle generation when one side has too few ships and only DD present.
• Fixed a bug that could generate error messages in AIDetermineTacticalStance
• Fixed a bug with placement of tertiary gun mounts occasionally not working.
• Tweaked some templates so AI generated legacy ships are not overweight in 1890 and 1900.
• Fixed a bug in blockade strength calculations.
• Removed confusing message "Ships without hangar can not have more aircraft than catapults" when the ship has a helipad.
• Added popup menu items to increase or decrease number of tubes in misssile launchers.
• Fixed an interface bug that allowed setting missile reloads too high.
• Fixed an interface glitch with entering course in numbers in the division status screen.

Should be safe to patch with a save in progress. Worked on my machine just fine. Just remember to rotate your saves for added security.
