New:
o Threading has been incorporated into the base Rim War mod courtesy of Karim (AmusedSaucer)
o Improved world unit icons courtesy of Poet
o Units engaged on the world map by a caravan have additional options to redirect the unit to visit the player colony or attack a nearby enemy, for a price
o Compatibility added for Empire mod:
- Player settlements are recognized as "vassal" factions to the player
- Vassal states are able to generate units at the direction of the player
- Vassal settlements that are attacked by an enemy unit will trigger a settlement defense event from the Empire mod; this will always cost the Vassal settlement RimWar points, regardless of the outcome
- Vassal settlement growth rate is limited by the settlement power level
o All mod options now have explanation tooltips
o New mod option for AI aggression cost and cooldown - adjusts the frequency AI settlements may initiate aggressive acts against the player
o Added two new presets for 'easy' and 'hard' settings
o Selecting a settlement on the world map will now draw a ring that shows the settlements effective range
o AI Settlements will now display their aggression points in the settlement info box; selecting player colonies will show the minimum aggression points a settlement needs to attack
o Added relative power unit costs - to help prevent faction snowballing, unit costs will be adjusted +- 25% based on a factions relative, overall combat power

Tweaks:
o Reduced the natural growth rate for settlements
- Growth rate is determined by biome, capitol, faction tech level, and behavior
- Growth ranges are 24 to 60 points per settlement per day; this can be adjusted in the mod options
o Reduced overall settlement starting power by 50%
o Caravans should have a reasonable chance of being undetected by units with overwhelming combat power
- Detection factors in caravan visibility, wealth, and distance to enemy unit
o Settlement effective range has been modified to be less dependent on settlement power
o Caravan engagements with other units should be more responsive

Bug Fixes:
o RimWar support added for Factions using fixed names
o Alert lists are sorted before displaying
o Template generation added for Factions without any defined Groups
- This will allow factions without pre-defined groups functionality
- The script is executed each time the game loads with parameters that are random-in-range

- Each unit (Scout, Warband, Launched Warband) provides a variety of options for power, speed, and cost
