Field update

Sharper edits, clearer command

dWars v0.4.3 · 18 June 2026

The Level Editor gets steadier, battalion focus reads at a glance, and the loadout sliders finally add up.

New

Place your bases and battalions straight onto the map in the Level Editor — drop a start point and the formation follows your read of the streets.
Sydney Showground joins the maps you can build a fight on.
Press Q to cycle the battlefield overlays — show everything, units only, then supply only.

Selecting a battalion now dims the units and formations you didn't pick — both teams — so your focus reads at a glance.
Battalion markers now draw on top of their units, so a formation never hides behind its own swarm.
In-game battalion names match the Level Editor — your Charlie stays Charlie, not "Charlie Battalion".
The loadout slider row is taller, giving you a bigger target to grab.

The Level Editor map preview no longer goes blank in the build — tiered map art now resolves the moment you open a map.
Loadout sliders redistribute honestly: lower one unit type and the others rise to match — including types sitting at 0% — and the mix always totals 100%.
Base and battalion placement is no longer mirrored north/south between the editor and the battle.
Moving a battalion's start point no longer drags its spawn zone along with it.
A battalion left with no units now reads as destroyed instead of quietly vanishing.
Mission briefings and the tutorial no longer load blank.

Desktop only for now — mouse and keyboard are required.
The Level Editor is still a first pass: custom drafts are for play sessions, not saved campaign progression.

Read the map, not the clock. — Elle
