Proposed trades including cities, where the cities no longer exist to be trades, are not cancelled (note: I consider this a bug because proposed trades are already cancelled if a player lacks the requisite e.g. resources/gold. could be considered not a bug).

Production decay counter on a type of build (e.g. axeman) is not reset after completing one if the next item in the queue is of the same type (fix is taken from BTS unofficial patch).

Feature growth/disappearance rates, and bonus discovery (mine pop) rates, do not scale with game speed.

[Krill]

Try again, just had a small hiccup with my internet during the upload process.

[Krill]

I saw that moloch

[AutomatedTeller]

it looks like the Custom House has been changed to increase ALL trades routes, not just intercontinental foreign routes, but it's not on the list. is that an intentional change?

[Krill]

It wasn't intended as such but I'll double check later today. Iirc it's a pretty benign change with a small cost decrease as well.

[Ichabod]

I didn't check ingame, but wouldn't "villages/town allowing Oil" give access to oil before it was supposed to (before combustion/plastics)?

[Krill]

Worth double checking.

[Krill]

I think it's fine though. Forts give access at the right tech and so do cities on top of the resource. Uranium isn't usable without fission either but can be mined earlier.

[Krill]

Also that change to permenant villages and towns help stop the air force disconnecting resources late game in the right circumstances.

[Krill]

it looks like the Custom House has been changed to increase ALL trades routes, not just intercontinental foreign routes, but it's not on the list. is that an intentional change?

It is not intentional, however the change is a general cost reduction to 120 hammers and as you said, is a +100% trade route yield bonus to all trade routes, not just intercontinental trade routes.

The second change I don't actually care about. The first one is the major change, but I don't see it as a huge issue. It wasn't intentional and as I have to release a stand alone version of the mod to disable map trading, I'll adjust the improvement cost back up to 180 base hammers and the effect back the vanilla.

I didn't check ingame, but wouldn't "villages/town allowing Oil" give access to oil before it was supposed to (before combustion/plastics)?

Basically it's fine. Villages and Towns give access to oil once you get Combustion, and uranium when you get Fision, and Coal at Steam Power, Aluminium when you get Scientific Method (because Aluminium and Coal don't have the separate reveal and use effect that uranium and oil have, they are accessible once they're discovered at SM).
