  v1.0.5 - Improved Controls & Difficulty

  This update focuses on improving unit control, making the game more approachable for new players, and polishing a few parts of the UI.Unit ControlRanged units now have the same vision range as their attack range. This prevents ranged units from moving unnecessarily toward enemies and helps them stay in position while attacking.Barracks rally points no longer cause units to move automatically. Players now have full control over where their units are positioned.Difficulty & ResourcesEasy and Medium campaign maps now provide more resources. Easy is intended to be a more comfortable experience for new players, who already have many things to manage in the early game. More resources should give them some breathing room.Hard difficulty remains unchanged.Mines now require workers to return and mine more frequently, making them easier to operate since they provide important resources.Mine interaction range has been increased from 400 to 500.Random Map Easy and Medium difficulties now have fewer difficult enemies. This gives newer players a better chance to survive and win. Easy is also a good choice if you simply want a more relaxed game and more time to build and decorate your base.UI & Map EditorThe Special Box button has been made more noticeable, since many players were missing this feature before.The Map Editor interface has been redesigned and adjusted to make its functions easier to understand. Thanks for playing Flow of War and for all the feedback! I’ll keep working on improving the game and making it more enjoyable and comfortable to play.

  v1.0.4 - Improved Controls & Hotkeys

  This update focuses on improving the controls and making them more convenient to use. You need to click Apply in the settings, or reset to default, to update the new keys.Right Click BehaviorOld:Right Click: Move and attackNew:Right Click: Move onlyF + Right Click: Move and attackAdded an option to switch the behavior of these two controls. So you can still switch it back to Right Click for both moving and attacking.Personally, I still prefer the old behavior because I'm lazy.Building HotkeysAdded two-level building hotkeys.X -> M (House -> Wall)After pressing the first key, the second-level building menu will appear. Press another key from X to M to select the building. I didn't add building hotkeys from the beginning because Flow of War has more buildings than most traditional RTS games.Flow of War: 32 buildingsFlow of War excluding Towers: 24 buildingsStarCraft II Terran: 13 buildingsWarcraft III Human: 13 buildingsAge of Empires II: 15 buildings with hotkeysFlow of War is designed to be more relaxed and less focused on high APM, so I don't want players to memorize too many hotkeys.However, for players who prefer using hotkeys, this system should make building much more convenient.Harvesting ControlsUpdated the icons and information for the Stop Harvesting and Reset Harvesting buttons.Since workers automatically gather resources, sometimes they may choose resources in inconvenient locations.Stop Harvesting prevents workers from gathering that resource.Reset Harvesting allows workers to resume gathering it.
