Hello there, generals! May has arrived, and with it comes a new open beta, this time for Operation Alpha!

This patch, as usual, contains balance changes, bug fixes, and something for you awesome modders out there. However, something we have also been working on for a while is language support for Simplified Chinese. This means that all our new Developer Diaries will be translated for Chinese, Japanese, and Russian. And this is just the beginning of what we have planned for our non-English speaking generals!


###########
Localization ###########

Added Simplified Chinese language support.

########
Balance ########

Lord Halifax now has two leader traits and reduces the requirements with the British Raj when forming the Imperial Federation/Commonwealth of Nations.
If Lord Halifax is used to annex the British Raj as part of the Imperial Federation, India will suffer increased resistance.
Fixed non-MTG ships having incorrect base speeds.
Increased biggest speed and agility factor diff by 1.0, increasing the maximum effect of these stats on air combat.

######
UI ######
Available medals are now present on army screens for Divisional Commanders.
Added a new Hearts of Iron IV YouTube channel link to menus.

##########
Modding ##########

Added effect remove_civil_war_target.

#########
Bugfix #########

Fixed an issue in the Pressure Government event chain for Italy and the Soviets in which the feedback event communicating the target's choice was sent to the target instead of the sender.
Playing as a released country is now persistent over saves in ironman.
Observers now retain the observed country on hotjoin and resynch.
Fixed License Production Access not being restored when reloading a save file.
Democratic Italy can now send volunteers to Spain after completing the Aid for Spanish Republic focus.
Fix for Belgium Congo sometimes flipping to Germany after Belgium capitulates.


And yes, there is no War Effort map update because that will come with the release of this patch! Now, have a lovely weekend, everyone, and we will see you again next week with something even more fun to talk about!
