- Spirit of the Pacific Factory Output debuff on the allies has been removed
- Australia has a new decision that they can take if they don't annex New Zeeland (because it is a player) that will Core Papau and give them a buff granting +5% production efficiency, cap, retention, and output
- Japan Short Term Industry buff changed from taking away 2 civs to give a mill every month, and instead granting them 10% output and production stats but a 20% construction speed debuff.
- States now have 50 building slots at a maximum, with all state categories having their base amount increased by 20% (IE instead of a Metropolis granting 22 slots they now grant 26, etc.)
- Supply Hub Build Speed is now affected by the level of infrastructure in that state like factories

Speed:
- Gas Engine speed bonus 15% -> 10%
- Recon base Speed boost on all terrain for horse/mot/tank/ac from 5/8/10/12 to 4/6/8/10
- Recon Speed Boost per additional research now grants 1.5% instead of 2% for every level
- INFRASTRUCTURE_MOVEMENT_SPEED_IMPACT = -0.01 -> -0.03 -- speed penalty per infrastructure below maximum.

Supply:
- COOLDOWN_DAYS_AFTER_MOVING_SUPPLY_CAPITAL = 30 -> 3 -- cooldown for moving supply again after last move
- DAYS_TO_START_GIVING_SUPPLY_AFTER_MOVING_SUPPLY_CAPITAL = 7 -> 3 -- the country will start gaining supply after this many days moving its capital
- DAYS_TO_START_GIVING_FULL_SUPPLY_AFTER_MOVING_SUPPLY_CAPITAL = 21 -> 10 -- the country will reach max supply after this many days moving its capital

Tank:
- The Lowe Heavy Tank has been removed
- IS3 Chassis has been removed, with the IS being able to mount a heavy turret 3
- To replace the lost armor, there is a 1945 research for the IS3 to upgrade that chassis

- Medium Howitzer 3 now also costs 4 Tungsten
- Medium Howitzer 2 Soft Attack 44 -> 38
- Medium Howitzer 2 Hard Attack 20 -> 18
- Medium Howitzer 3 Soft Attack 50 -> 46
- Medium Howitzer 3 Hard Attack 26 -> 22

Bugfixes:
- Greece's National Leader no longer will set the country to 0 Stability since we don't have the greece tree in the game
- Fixed a bug in the Japanese Air Propaganda which instead of removing the bonus after the propaganda ended was instead granting it again.

Naval AA:
- SHIP_TO_FLEET_ANTI_AIR_RATIO = 0.25 -> 0.2 -- total sum of fleet's anti air will be multiplied with this ratio and added to calculations anti-air of individual ships while air damage reduction
- ANTI_AIR_POW_ON_INCOMING_AIR_DAMAGE = 0.25 -> 0.58 -- received air damage is calculated using following: 1 - ( (ship_anti_air + fleet_anti_air * SHIP_TO_FLEET_ANTI_AIR_RATIO )^ANTI_AIR_POW_ON_INCOMING_AIR_DAMAGE ) * ANTI_AIR_MULT_ON_INCOMING_AIR_DAMAGE
- ANTI_AIR_MULT_ON_INCOMING_AIR_DAMAGE = 0.25 -> 0.02

TL:DR on Naval AA, back in October we reset some of our defines to Vanilla that were going to be identical between the mod and vanilla. This put us in a spot where we wanted to be for Naval AA Damage reduction. However for 1.12.5 in October we missed that Paradox modified those defines, buffing naval aa in a way we were not anticipating. These changes are to nerf Naval AA and to make it more linear and make every bit of added AA worth its IC cost rather than plateau so quickly. This will also nerf fleets that have only a very tiny amount of AA by bringing them more in line with what you would expect.

For example, before these changes the starting UK fleet at ~180 Fleet AA had ~50% damage reduction from naval bombers, but after these changes they will have about 17%. Likewise for a fleet of any size with only 10 total AA across the entire fleet, a ship in that fleet without AA will now have 3% damage reduction instead of a monstrous 25% with live values.

Below is a graph charting the Damage Reduction from Naval Bombers a fleet gets for a ship in that fleet that has no AA on it. The top blue line are the current live values, the yellow values are what we expected them to be had Paradox not changed naval AA, and Red is what the new curve is going to look like.

BASE_FACTORY_SPEED = 3.5 -> 3 -- Base factory speed multiplier (how much hoi3 style IC each factory gives) [this is a revert to what it used to be]

Piercing Changes TL:DR is there is another step of armor, and you gain less damage from partial piercing.
PIERCING_THRESHOLDS = { -- Our piercing / their armor must be this value to deal damage fraction equal to the index in the array below [higher number = higher penetration]. If armor is 0, 1.00 will be returned.
1.00,
0.75,
0.50,
0.00, --there isn't much point setting this higher than 0
},
to
(1.0,0.8,0.6,0.4,0.0)
PIERCING_THRESHOLD_DAMAGE_VALUES = { -- 0 armor will always receive maximum damage (so add overmatching at your own peril). the system expects at least 2 values, with no upper limit.
1.00,
0.80,
0.65,
0.50,
},
to
(1.0,0.7,0.5,0.3,0.1)

Patch 21 - checksum c146

- Added a number of new tank models for Brazil, mexico, and mongolia
- Cruisers can no longer use secondaries in the non dedicated Secondaries slot
- Small Gun hit profile 55 -> 60
- Ship Light Medium Battery 1/2/3/4 damage changed from 6/10/14/18 to 4/8/12/16

- Mongolian Rubber Refinery focus fixed
- New Text added to Research Tab backgrounds thanks to Chezloc
- The localization has been refactored, so submods may have some broken localization
- Fixed a number of console errors

Japan:
- The spirit for the Pacific war that debuffs the allies has been shifted from getting a malice to atttack and defense against EU Axis, to an attack malice against EU axis, and the EU axis getting an attack bonus. This is because of funny paradox math making using defense_bonus_against doesn't really work right
- Japan has been given 3 new paths post China War, and they must do one of them
- Short War lets you go to war in July of 1940, but with some minor debuffs that mean you will need to be aggressive and conquering to take advantage
- Medium War lets you go to war in January of 1941 and is expected to be the default. Japan gets some buffs to help them build up for longer, including industry, military, and intel
- Long war lets you go to war in July of 1941, where Japan gets large industry buffs, military buffs, intel buffs, and some bonus destruction and collaboration

We will be watching the balance of all 3 paths as they roll out. It is advised if you are doing a Big Manchu - Small Japan setup to not take the early war path.
