New in Darkest Hour Patch 1.01 (May 9, 2011)

EXE changes:
Tweaked Nuke AI targeting:
nukestriketolerance now is used as the starting value in Nuke evaluation – the higher it is, the more often the AI will use nukesIt is recommended to set this a bit under 0.0 to order the AI to nuke bigger enemy Core provincesGood values in most cases are about -50 to -20
nukestrikedesirability is used as a multiplier on the final value if it is > 0.0A good value seems to be about 50.0If set to 0.0 or less the AI will not use nukes at all.
Damage to infrastructure taken by nukes uses 0.1 steps to allow rebuilding back to 100% infra.
Fixed Remaining infra after nuking cannot be less than 1 step (0.1 or 10%) to avoid AI problems.
Allowed IC in provinces to be reduced to 0 from nukes (was limited to 0.1 IC before)
Fixed a problem with saving of damaged IC - sometimes it could be wrongly restored upon reload
Fixed a bug with command not being applied to units in the redeployment pool that haven’t been deployed to the map yet.

Code optimizations for the generic events
Set policy slider to 0 on country creation for locked sliders (every policy_effects.csv - MANUAL_OR_ BY_INFLUENCE _MOVES)
Puppeting/Coups/GoI cannot change locked sliders (every policy_effects.csv - MANUAL_OR_ BY_INFLUENCE _MOVES) anymore
Fixed a bug with selectable game maps preventing read of tiles.bmp form Map_X located in MODDIR if there is no such file in default Map_X folder.
Made upgrade to model and type moddable for every brigade/unit:
Upgrade type and model can be specified in brigade/division filesFor example to upgrade LArm-2 to ARM-2 add armor = 2 into the model = { } entry for L-Arm-2 in light_armor.txt
This is optional and can be skippedBy default every unit/brigade is upgradeable to the next model of the same type with 2 exceptions:
LArm-2 by default upgrades to ARM-2
All ships by default do not upgrade
It is possible to specify upgrade to a model of the same type alsoFor example, INT-4 can be set to upgrade to INT-7 directly and skip the two rocket interceptor models in interceptor.txt, simply by adding interceptor = 7
It is also possible to forbid a specific model to be upgraded at allTo do that set its upgrade model to -2For example, INT-6 could be set as non-upgradeable even if there is an INT-7 model by adding interceptor = -2
Fixed a bug with upgrade time and cost of brigades (current model modifiers were used instead of the modifiers for the next model).
“Do not upgrade” button for naval units set to be available only if there is at least one brigaded ship in the fleet or at least one ship that can be upgraded.
Updated Statistic page to show upgrade progress on Statpages for naval units too.
Added new optional division/brigades models parameter: upgrade_time_boost = yes/noWhen it is set to yes (default value) upgrade time for models 2 or more levels obsolete will be reduced (as in vanilla)When set to NO there will be no upgrade time reduction for older models.
Changed default values of upgrade_time_factor and upgrade_cost_factor from 0.0 to 1.0.

Fixed an AI bug with transport fleets wandering in and out of port at random.
Fixed CTD on strenght command wrongly applied to brigades in (re)deployment pool

Triggered by a command event with TAG = { } list will not be executed for the current sountry if it is not into the TAG list (and no [all = yes] option set).
