NEW v1.01 GAME FEATURES
This patch will update your CMBN game to v1.01, which includes many enhancements and improvements. Below is a list of some of the new v1.01 game features.
Vehicles
Moving vehicles fire their weapons with further reduced accuracy.
Spotting ability of buttoned-up vehicles is further reduced.
Fixed a graphical bug that could cause a Puma crew to rotate outside the vehicle.
Vehicles that lose an unbuttoned crewman to small-arms fire are more likely to pop smoke and/or retreat like they typically do when the vehicle itself takes a hit.
Armor penetrations through a vehicle’s main gun mantlet are not reported as hits on other locations.
Hit text for projectiles that enter an open vehicle hatch says « Hit: Opening » rather than turret or hull.
Corrected a rare problem that could cause tank drivers to remember « threat locations » for too long and rotate the vehicle inappropriately.
In a campaign game, if a tank is in working order but its crew is decimated, the tank will not appear in the next battle only to immediately become « knocked out » due to having a decimated crew.
Rhino vehicles are additionally available in August.
Fixed a bug that prevented ricochets off a Panther lower mantlet into the hull top (though this intentionally remains rare).
The glacis/hull-roof armor plate on the Tiger front is thicker.
SPW 250/9, SPW 251/9, and SPW 251/10 halftracks will button up under fire like most other vehicles do.
PSW 222 crew is now commander/loader, gunner, and driver.
PSW 222 and PSW 223 are capable of firing weapons after losing a crewman, and have slightly improved commander’s visiblity when buttoned up.
Terrain
Troops hiding in trenches or foxholes get better protection from shrapnel.
Concealment in foxholes is increased.
Corrected a problem that protected soldiers when a wall was behind them, but not enough when a wall was in front of them.
The distance between a soldier and bocage where the soldier may see through the bocage is slightly shortened.
Direct hits do more damage to trees.
Trees are less likely to block large projectiles consistently.
Tree placement remains precisely consistent each time you load/play a particular scenario.
Quick Battles
Corrected a problem that sometimes switched attacking and defending sides.
The unit auto-purchaser is improved.
Air support may only be purchased during daytime with clear or hazy weather.
The « Random Service » option works properly.
Artillery
Artillery is a little less precise.
When a forward observer cannot see where spotting rounds impact, he will usually require another round to be fired rather than skip ahead to fire-for-effect with poor accuracy.
Corrected a problem that sometimes caused artillery missions targeted near a TRP to « prepare » indefinitely.
Pre-planned missions for on-map artillery won’t ever use spotting rounds.
Corrected an accuracy problem that could affect the first rounds of pre-planned artillery strikes using the Line pattern.
White phosphorous (smoke) does not cause unrealistically high casualties.
Soldier Behavior
Soldiers are less likely to use SMGs at longer ranges.
Soldiers are less likely to fire on exposed tank crew.
Soldiers can spot anti-tank mines (in addition to anti-personnel mines).
Corrected some problems with mortars in direct-fire mode.
Soldiers are less likely to use explosive weapons for area-fire at very short range.
Soldiers won’t set up heavy weapons on the precise edge of the map.
The TacAI pays a bit less attention to unarmed vehicle targets.
Soldiers aim better when area-firing into an immediately adjacent building.
Corrected some problems with soldier placement around heavy weapons in foxholes.
Soldiers are quicker to stop attempting to surrender if friendly soldiers are nearby and enemies are not.
HMG assistants can cower under fire like the rest of their team.
Grenades
Troops may throw grenades from buildings at open-topped vehicles.
Grenade throwing obeys covered arc orders.
Grenades won’t roll through building walls.
Bridge Pathfinding
Corrected some minor pathing problems across bridges.
Troops are more willing to move across nearby fords rather than use distant bridges.
Anti-tank Guns
Antitank guns won’t attach to vehicles that are too small to tow them.
Corrected a problem that potentially allowed an antitank gun team to move the gun into a building.
User Interface
Keyboard camera controls are smoother (Windows version).
When placing troops in a building during setup, if you click on a soldier or its icon (instead of the building) to set the destination, it won’t cause the moving troops to float in midair.
Trenches and barbed-wires « remember » their rotations if moved to a location that is not adjacent to other trenches or barbed-wire.
When attaching targeting orders to a waypoint, the range display is calculated from the waypoint, not the unit’s current location.
Corrected a problem with area-targeting a non-occupiable roof of a building.
Clicking Exit or New in the Editor brings up a confirmation dialog.
Miscellaneous
Less framerate is devoted to showing wind blowing through trees.
MP40 ammo pouches display correctly on German soldiers.
Fixed a disappearing « gable » on a couple of barns.
Updated US rank icons.
Fixed some out-of-memory problems.
Adjusted the point values for bunkers.

Sins of a Solar Empire: Trinity 1.3
[ Gameplay ]
Updated Diplomacy System – Substantially redesigned and rebalanced all the additions made in the Diplomacy expansion.
- Relationship Factors: Changed to be more granular/randomized, based more on racial lore and take more internal gameplay actions into account.
o Diplomatic Inclination: Reduced to a range between -0.10 and +0.25, randomized on game start. This is a starting factor that represents pre-existing like/dislike between factions based on previous (lore) interactions.
o Racial Inclination: Substantially revised to represent the amount of innate tension/hostility between the races at start of Diplomacy’s timeline. Players of the same race will always like one another somewhat, whereas players of differing races will mistrust or hate one another to some degree based upon lore (i.e., Advent hate TEC, TEC hate Advent, Vasari tend to dislike other races to some extent as they’re viewed as inferior).
o Adjacent Territory: Penalty reduced based on distance between players.
o Missions: Updated Mission system (See below). Value varies based on conditions. Mission relationship bonuses can count over the +10.0 limit towards Pacts.
o Mission Rejections: Value decreased from -0.25 per rejection to -0.10; capped at -1.5.
o Fleet Strength: A ratio between each player’s total to used fleet points. Formula revised to be less influential.
o Military Actions: Variable factor that is now immediately based on players’ military actions.
-> Destroying another player’s enemy’s ships grants a bonus to relations (based on the fleet supply of the destroyed vessel).
-> Destroying another player’s friend’s ships gives a relations penalty (based on the fleet supply of the destroyed vessel).
-> Destroying enemy/friendly civilian or tactical structures or planets now grants a set relations bonus/penalty as appropriate.
o Diplomatic Actions: Variable bonus or penalty that now updates throughout the game based on the players’ non-military actions. Becoming closer with another player’s enemies will make that player like you less and vice versa. Values are based on active treaties and pacts.
o Resources Given: No major changes. Positive relations is based on the units provided with credits being worth the least and crystal the most. Resource relations bonuses degrade over time.
o Envoy Bonus: No major changes to what this includes. See below for Envoy ability changes. Envoy bonuses count over the +10.0 limit towards Pacts and will degrade if the Envoy leaves the gravity well.
o Research Bonus: Static relationship bonuses that now affect both the player doing the research and other players’ opinions. Values have been reduced per tech level. The Research Bonus can count over the +10.0 limit towards Pacts.
o AI Relationship Bonus: This value only affects AI players and gives AI to AI relations an increasing amount of relations over time, capped to a maximum. The speed of the increase is based on the AI’s difficulty level.

o All Envoy cruisers fleet supply cost reduced from 12 to 8.
