I'm not sure why, but when I try to load v1.31 into the editor, I get the error message for missing file ../graphics/atnato/Airsymbol.png. Same for Deep battle.

My mistake, there is a single SFT that has its graphic in a different folder. I thought this folder was already in the vanilla game, so I deleted from it in my atzip version. It shouldn´t impact gameplay, but tell me if you´re having any troubles with in game graphics. I will fix it in v1.32.

USA 60 mm mortar is not appearing in inventory. It says it is being produced but none appear.

I've had that happen when I was producing something and then it went obsolete due to a new item being available. Something caused the factory not to upgrade to the new item but it kept saying the old item was being build but none would show up. Not sure what in the master file causes this.

Figured it out it is producing the Brandt version not the M2 version of the 60 mm mortar

Ok, I´m going to see it, not sure if it was deliberate, I must check the file.

There is an M2 version and it is a little better then the Brandt has same attack but has better defense. French version has 20 hitpoints American version has 50.

An emergency fix was created for issues with ships (and some aircraft) using raw instead of oil.

V134 is out. I think I failed to fix the less mistekes pointed by TwoTribes, but I will fix it soon.
v134 reworks fuel aircraft consumption

I´m doing very few changes in this mod, due to work with GD1938v3, however, I would like to share some ideas on how to improve it.
1-Fortifications are very, very cheap, it´s easy to build fortifications in almost every hex, making the game a slugfest WWI style and denying the ability to maneuver. It´s more obvious in big scenarios built with this mod, like Deep battle 1938
How to fix? Increase both the cost and structural points of fortifications, we are talking about 50km og bunkers!!!
2-Both oil is too scarce, this is more evident in small scenarios, to some extent it will be fixed with the v134, which decreases fuel comsumption for most aircraft
How to fix? Decreased costs for oil/raw again, now the default is 5, while it´s 5x more expensive to make synthetic oil. Maybe raw will be too cheap, but now players will spend lots of raw to build forfifications. Also considering to implement raw spending for the production of synthetic oil
3-More realistic mobilization logistics, with real weights. Trouble is that towed equipment actually weights less for transportation. An artillery tractor able to tow a 10 ton gun, won´t be able to carry 100 men.
How to fix? Not sure, maybe the heavy guns will come with their own prime movers?

v1.40 in the scenario bank. We now have three kinds of roads, with better graphics
Btw: Sorry, Ormand, I used one of your graphics but forgot to give you the credits, it will be fixed next version

The roads
-Railroad: cannot be built, created in random maps. We assume there is a major road following each road, but there is only the railroad graphic
-Road: cannot be built and isn´t created in random maps. You can make them in the map editor
-Dirt road: the only one that can be built by your engineers
