1.14.8 update
Note: The latest war effort patch made some changes to files that this mod uses and it made the game very unstable with old mod version. Sadly just updating the mod didn't help much – if you encounter CTDs with this mod, starting a new game is required to fix the issues. Then it should no longer CTD (as the game now uses the new files).

Japan Air Rework:
-Added custom historical plane presets for all types of aircraft (only generic previously)
-The new presets the AI now uses have much better range, helping cover China and the pacific more effectively
-Fixed the plane icons and 3D models– now the correct ones are assigned automatically
-Japan AI will stop randomly picking the Air Strategic Destruction doctrine
-Fixed Japan not producing any carrier aircraft for extended periods, and as a result having useless half-empty carriers
-Many minor Japan AI tweaks for research, idea selections, production

Canada AI improvement:
-Small changes to historical focus tree path
-AI will build infrastructure in Québec to enable and do the resource decision
-AI will produce more Strategic Bombers and convoys

-Removed the Petsamo fix as it is now fixed in the base game
-Fixed British CAS aircraft having 2 engines instead of (IRL) 1, assigned a correct 3D model
-Fixed generic Maritime patrols presets being too heavy to create (required engine increased by 1 level)

- added non-generic German Scout plane presets (and Hs-126 will use correct icon)
- modified late German AI infantry template to be larger and more powerful (useful for attacking SOV)
- Added an AI script for German AI to stop attacking United Kingdom in the air if it loses too many planes there and there is no point in trying further. Instead it saves the rest for the Barbarossa (historical focus, Battle of Britain) – this change considerably improves the AI's ability to push into SU early on.
USA Tank Presets:
Modified a lot of presets to be historically accurate, fixed many errors (wrong modules, engine types, armament, suspension types...)
M4 Sherman split into early Sherman and late, upgraded Sherman M4A3E8
Fixed T-95 superheavy template not being visible
-Some tweaks in AI research priorities

- slightly improved how AI changes manpower laws, it should no longer happen that AI runs straight for Scrapping the Barrel just because it quickly lost a lot of manpower, even when lower law would be sufficient
- 'unblocked' the US resource prospecting decisions, AI should build up the resources now (previously there was a rule that blocked the AI from taking them unless it has 200+ PP = virtually never)
- ENG will try to build more dockyards before the war (esp. in 1939 scenario where it doesn't build any)
- reverted a change in USA/UK not attacking Vichy, now they attack it again (late 1942)
- changed German Modern jet medium bomber to have correct modules and icon/ 3D model (Ar 234)
- US AI will prioritize hiring Silent Workhorse, as they're constantly out of PP
- small AIs blocked from researching (for AI useless) armored car – this should reduce the market spam


Improved Phoney war AI behavior:
- English RAF and its allies will respect the 'Phoney War' and not fanatically bomb Germany during this period (and lose all their air forces there, then having nothing to defend themselves with once France capitulates)
- German Luftwaffe will leave Allies alone for a while too (until spring 1940), saving it for attack

1.14.7 update
- German AI will try to help Italy if it is being invaded and not let it just die so easily (historical games)
- German AI will research and use rocket artillery in its infatry template
- German AI will stockpile a bit more equipment before attacking USSR, so it won't 'run out of steam' so quickly
- Reduced the amount of aircraft and tanks Germany produces (was producing a bit too many and running out of resources / not producing other important things, still more than vanilla though)
- minor changes to some AI unit templates
- Modified the modern German aircraft presets – Me-262; also added He-162, Me-163 Komet and
Me-262 HG II historical templates (couldn't set the correct icons/models unfortunately, but you can do it manually)
- tweaks in German tank presets (added late Panzer IV and Panther variants)
- added modern British aircraft presets and set to use the correct icons/models (Meteor, Canberra, Valiant) – AI will use them too
- fixed british Lincoln (strat bomber 3) bomber preset being too heavy to produce
- Tweaked USA fighter templates to include bomb-locks (so they can all be used as CAS and have same roles), also fixed AI not wanting to use late carrier fighters and sticking to old designs instead
- Modified some Soviet heavy tank presets so they're buildable (previously impossible due to 4 kph speed limit)
- Fixed AI issue – no one wanting to join Italy in their war against Ethiopia and Greece (even if other Axis members and Allies are already at war, seems to be a malfunctioning trigger)
- Fixed Denmark triggering an unhistorical war between Japan and Soviet Union by declaring independence (happens due to Germany being guaranteed by Japan, workaround fix)
- changed AI variable for default training level of units, AI should now train them to 100% and not 95% if possible (so way less 'green' troops in the field, WIP as AI still can deploy untrained units)
- Prompted AI Nationalist Spain to build and keep a larger army (to enable AI sending volunteers and be safer in case of joining a war)
- fixed default French fighter icons/models
- removed some outdated AI tweaks

1.14.5 update
- Minor fixes to British Aircraft templates
- Made all Commonwealth subjects use British aircraft templates instead of generic
- Fixed incorrect airplane icons for Canada

- Improved USA Airplane preset templates and fixed UI assigning wrong icons/models, added some additional templates (postwar), improved existing to be more historically accurate
- Germany AI will focus more on killing Greece first, before attacking USSR (hist.focus on)
- Some minor changes to what AI researches, some techs given higher priority, some lower
- Fixed Beaufighter (UK heavy fighter 1940) preset being too heavy to create
- Italy won't establish Albanian puppet Regime until 1941 in historical games (this is due to some bug affecting Italy, it refuses to call this Albanian puppet to war with Greece and thus can't attack it from land)

1.14.3 Update
General:
- Added workaround for AI not designing any SPG/TD templates – only for Germany & Soviets for now, AI should slowly build some again
- AI will stop wasting PP on exiled governments and certain other decisions if it is still stuck on Civilian Economy (This mostly affected historical UK and USA)
- Fixed Finland losing Petsamo after the Winter War (fixed the event)
- some adjustments to AI research priorities (railroaded AI to take certain important techs sooner)

Soviet Union:
- Added many real aircraft presets replacing the generic ones and fixed the icons/models all defaulting to the same old interwar (many used icons/models require Eastern Front Planes DLC)
- the newer T-34 preset renamed to T-34-85
- will not use some propaganda decisions early as they're useless (no need for extra resources, fuel etc.)
- they will also not taky many decisions when needing PP for annexing Baltics and Bessarabia (this should hopefully fix cases when AI is unable to annex them all in time in historical)

Other countries:
- UK will now keep more of their troops in its home territory when invasion is possible (France hostile or the northern french states are occupied by someone hostile)
- Germany will not rush Denmark occupation decisions so much if historical focus is on

Updated for 1.14.2
- Added early T-34 template to USSR tank presets (for the AI mostly for it to not be stuck with A-20 forever)

- slightly modified UK Historical focus order for AI
- Turkey will stop joining Allies in 1944, instead it will remain neutral until about 44/45 and then join either Allies or Axis, based on who is winning decisively (if no one, remain neutral)
- AI will not prioritize War Support decisions over Manpower laws
- Changed German AI infantry templates to the new vanilla ones
- Germany will not annex Vichy France too early if historical focus is enabled (historically 11-1942)
- reduced the amount of tanks German AI produces (overproduced medium tanks later in game)
- removed some old unneccessary ai_strategies
Known Issues:
*Denmark uprising in 1944 causes a war between Soviet Union and Japan due to Japan guaranteering Germany (this calls Japan to war against everyone who is at war with Germany, incl. SU, which it shouldn't)
*For some reason German AI doesn't want to get rid of light tanks in its templates, WIP
*Also AIs cannot produce tank destroyers and SPGs (with NSB DLC active) – reported as a bug

1.13.6 update
AI will not waste PP on propaganda decisions when it already has near 100% war support
AI will not waste PP on exiled governments when it needs it for manpower
Germany will stop running out of PP due to constantly spamming Denmark occupation decisions
Germany will try to replace lost trains and trucks more
Historical Canada will pick certain focuses earlier (skipping some useless ones) and utilize Send in the zombies focus (which is no longer mutually exclusive)
