President Infinity Beta – v. 1.1.2

President Infinity Beta v. 1.1.2 for Windows and Mac has been released!

This release fixes a bug with importing user designed campaigns, shows the Notes Screen at the beginning of the turn (if there are any notes for that player), prompts to select a federal block grant or not, fixes a bug where endorsers were unendorsing, fixes a bug with showing same momentum numbers for all players in the Notes Screen, and changes the 2020 block grant $150M -> $103.7M.

Note: if you have campaigns you have made, it is recommended that you back these up first. Although there should be no problems loading and playing them, this simply errs on the side of caution. If the campaign formatting is unknown, the campaign will be re-written to disk using the new formatting without backing up the original version. If a campaign XML file’s syntax has to be updated, it will backup automatically, however.

Note: a Beta release is a pre-official release, for people wishing to test the product. It is not complete. See notes below. This version will not overwrite your existing official release install, so you can test the Beta release while still playing your previously installed official release.

Version Beta 1.1.2 adds

• User designed campaigns > fixed bug where wouldn’t update and fix campaign
• User designed campaigns > Import > if zip file doesn’t have correct structure, gives message suggesting unzipping file and importing by folder instead
• Turn Summary > fixed bug where displaying same news +- for every player
• prompts to accept or decline federal funding
• shows notes at beginning of turn
• if no new notes, don’t show at start of turn
• fixed bug where endorsers unendorsing
• 2020 > federal block grant for Reps, Dems $150M -> $103.7M

I am not looking for feedback on the game unless it relates to core game functionality (basic things you can’t do in the game, crashing, bugs, things that obviously don’t look right).

No save-load. No Editor. It may crash or have other bugs.

Installation instructions:

Mac:

Download (see below) and double click on the zip file once downloaded.

1. Right click on the extracted app and select New Terminal at Folder. 

2. Copy and paste the following to the terminal line
