Changelog
3.0bSomeone leaked the beta so I suppose I may as well just make it available here. It contains various bugs and incomplete features so use at your own risk. Version 2.2 is still available here!
- Popup toolbar with several new features
- Flip formation horizontally/vertically
- (De)activate all units or by unit groups
- Reset formation
- Repair mode for individual unit repair (repair works but this feature is far from being complete)
- Undo/Redo does not work so don't waste time pressing those buttons :D
- Mark saved targets (has several issues)
- Double-click to (De)activate units
- Disable tooltips (attack preparation and army formation manager)
- Skip victory popups after battle
- Available repair shown in stats
- Available attacks with current CP, at full strength and with current repair charges (CP/F/C)
- Probably something else also...
- Loot and repair costs fixed for patched worlds.
- Outposts and camps were displaying incorrect stats.
- Some clean up of the code.
- Please note that due to a POI bonus rounding error in the game the PvP stats may be slightly off at times. You will know this to be the case if you see stats displayed as slightly over 100% so just keep that in mind for the time being.
- Fix: Stats window remained open when entering simulation viewmode.
- Fixed: DF health would be displayed as NaN if it had been destroyed in a previous attack. Only affected camps and outposts.
- Fixed: Incorrect stats after first attack.
- Refresh/simulation buttons now hidden in spectate mode.
- Corrections to PvP stats calculations. Should be accurate now.
- Change of name. Due to the recent influx of other combat simulators this project will now be known as TACS in order to differentiate from the others and to avoid any confusion.
- The API wrapper in no longer needed in order for this to work and as such this will continue to work throughout server updates unless of course EA changes something.
- All existing functionality was preserved during the rewrite.
- Autoplay: Simulations now start to play automatically upon entering the simulation viewmode. This saves you 1 click with each simulation and will help extend the life of your mouse :D
- Simulate/Refresh buttons are hidden when simulating isn't possible. This happens when switching between own bases while in attack preparation view and the target is out of attack range.
- Updating stats is now much more responsive.
- Auto display of tools is working again.
- Skip To End: The simulation viewmode now features a SKIP button which allows you to skip to the end of the simulation. This is an additional feature which is only activated when the API wrapper is present.
-Removed the autoupdate URL as the update service domain has expired and is causing issues with the script.

-Backwards compatibility with unpatched worlds thanks to PythEch.

-Lock for repair button (Locks are optional and can be individually enabled).
