Changelog

Version: 0.3.0
Date: 2026-10-26
  Balancing:
    - The equipment grid of the military wagons is 6x8 like the tank's (was 16x16), so it no longer takes far more equipment than a tank.
    - Military wagons have 2000 health like the tank (was 1000).
    - Armour plates are 2x2 like an energy shield (were 4x4), with recipes a quarter of the size. A grid full of plates now protects about as well as one full of shields with a reactor, but only against its damage type and without power.
    - Plate values per plate: composite 0.5 flat / 4 %, reactive, acid and fire 5 %, tungsten plates 6 to 7 %.
    - Better quality makes a plate stronger, like a shield: +30 % per quality level.
    - Equipment in old saves that no longer fits into the smaller grid is put into the wagon's cargo, or on the ground next to it.
  Graphics:
    - New, more detailed armour plate graphics: welded seams, bolts, dents, rust, scorched tiles, acid stains.
  Bugfixes:
    - Explosive shells from the cannon wagons no longer damage your own buildings, trains and walls. Their explosions now spare your side like their impact already did.
Version: 0.2.0
Date: 2026-10-25
  Features:
    - Twin cannon wagon: two tank cannons on the roof, each turning all the way round.
    - Howitzer wagon: one long gun, range 36, minimum range 12, half the tank's rate of fire.
    - Mine launcher wagon: lays land mines up to 120 tiles away, aimed with its own remote like artillery. Minimum range 16.
    - Wagon shells are wagon-only copies of the tank shells: they fly through the own train and on to 40 tiles.
    - Armour steel (steel, copper, carbon and water in a chemical plant). Without Space Age carbon is made from coal.
    - Equipment grid on all military wagons (16x16). It takes everything a tank's grid takes, plus armour plates.
    - Seven armour plates against physical, explosion, acid and fire damage, four of them made of tungsten with Space Age. Plates fit only into military wagons. Their protection adds up to at most 80 %.
    - Wagon panel next to the wagon window: the armour in effect, target priorities and, on the rocket wagon, the minimum range (8 to 24, with range circles).
Version: 0.1.0
Date: 2026-10-25
  Features:
    - Machine gun, flamethrower and rocket wagon in one mod. They used to be three separate mods (up to version 0.2.1).
    - Each wagon can be switched off in the startup settings.
  Info:
    - The wagons keep their names, so saves with the old mods keep their wagons. The old mods become empty bridges to this one.
