Attached is a zipped file that contains Release Notes and the new MWIF.exe: version 02.03.06.00.

The reason for making this available as a hot patch is to correct the NetPlay bugs listed below.

[Sorry that it took me an extra day to make this available. I had trouble getting files to upload to the forum.]

Release Notes for (Hot Patch) Version 02.03.06.00

NetPlay
1. Fixed several problems with UndoData not being cleared, which left units marked as having moved in subsequent impulses/phases/turns. This primarily affected NetPlay games.

2. Fixed a problem with restoring an autosaved saved game from the Scrap Destroyed Units phase causing each major power to be processed twice.

3. Made some changes to how production is processed so each major power gets the correct number of build points.

4. Changed the Connection Lost error messages to provide with more information about what the program is trying to do when it detects a dropped connection. Previously #141 would be reported from a couple dozen different places in the code. Now there are 10 different error codes to identify exactly when the problem happens.

5. Fixed an occasional fatal error when the program was trying to report Naval Combat Results on a computer when that form is not currently showing.

Excuse me for my ignorance, but I have had the game mothballed and I have not been following the updates and hotpaches...

Do I need to use hotpatch 02.03.05 and then this one or this includes all the modifications of the previous one as well?

Thanks in advance!

You need to install 2.3.4 (Members area) first and then can go direct to 2.3.6. The 2.3.6 is just a replacement for MWIF.exe
