As before, please have a clean separate installation of the game with the comprehensive v1.23.00 Beta update, and then copy the v1.23.04 Beta EXE file into the game directory (it is the game executable and not an installer executable). The updated database data files are too large to include in the attachment; it really only changes the Swedish light fleet so just ignore that for now.
So this update mainly fixes the AI bugs we saw introduced with v1.23.03. Something else I am trying is compiling the game with no specified Windows version target like it was before with v1.22. I think specifying WinXP SP2 may have been causing some of the issues in this version. Two items of note. When I updated AI-AI battles from trivial combat to chits, I did not take care to retain trivial combat correctly. So that's fixed. I have also updated the AI land moves to improve performance somewhat. There is still room for improvement, but now I have a good base to work from.
Let us see how this version plays and I will continue to investigate problems with minor units and depots as they arise. Looking ahead, there are more AI improvements and 1812 scenario updates to work on. I'd like to get a stable version running so we can proceed to an official patch sometime next spring.
