If it updates correctly, you should see the latest beta version listed as your version in-game on the bottom left below the "Quit" button.
Changes in 1.06.00 (July 13th, 2023):
• Added an exciting November 1944 Puffendorf scenario!
• Updated US officers library to v24.
• Fixed cards for US General Grow
• Minor fixes on the campaign scenarios:
o Revised Strategic bases
o Fixed 33rd and 34th British Armored Brigade deployment
• Updated Weather Library version to v11. (not yet used in any scenario, but now available for future usage) You can now enableFullTemperatureSpread which enables the new algorithm to determine random temperatures. This new algorithm will pick semi-correct values for all months of the year, also summer. Also added TemperatureOffset and RainOffset that allow you to offset the random temperature values and random weather changes.
• Fixed a big issue that had the human player sharing AI movement bonuses.
• Added line drawing support to the Map Editor
• Improved the AI (combat odds calculation in general much improved => less “suicidal” attacks, better artillery usage (less shuffling around, more fire-ing), better night combat odds calculation, bit more focus on actually occupying VPs)
