Fixes
Fixed an issue that revealed the entire map for human players when the AI cast Ineluctable Vision.
Fixed bug where if main map objects were asked to be selected while the tactical window was up (could cause some odd behavior when exiting tactical battles).
Cities now make sure their hubs match the city’s selected state, so that we don’t have issues where a city appears to be selected but is not actually selected, and vice versa (usually manifested as difficulty selecting/deselecting a given city hub).
Fixed a bug where sometimes conquering an AI city wouldn’t allow you to do certain production projects until you reloaded the game, due to the projects not always getting cancelled correctly.
Fixed some artifacting issues on forests (unfortunately this isn’t as exciting as having magical artifacts in forests, the graphics guy tell me that artifacts are a bad thing).
Fixed an issue where Champion Shimsher could get Sweep twice.
Fixed lots of issues with placing rivers in the editor.
Fixed the Gust of Wind ability (not the spell), where it wouldnt knock units back if they resisted.
Fixed annoying issue where the hour glass cursor would show when looking at the tech tree.
Fixed common-ish crash bug due to multiple cities looking at the buildable improvements list at the same time.
Fixed a deadlock issue with regards to cities looking at resources (would appear to player as a lockup).
Fixed an issue where you could have a trait selected in the trait tree from a former champions selection.
Improved performance, especially on late game large maps.
Crash fixes.
