Hello Admirals, We just deployed a minor update featuring essential fixes and improvements, which were possible thanks to your very helpful recent feedback and reports. Please read: [b]Minor Update v1.3.9.8[/b]

• Economy adjustment so that provinces provide more money and so larger empires receive an even more distinct advantage.
• Foreign population can now contribute to the army. Modders can tune the new config value "colony_percent_army" if they want a different setting.
• Improved Mexico region fixing port issues in the area. Now Mexico is divided into 4 provinces and their new ports cover the surrounding oceans properly. There should be no critical issue caused by this essential improvement but if you notice something, please let us know. A new campaign guarantees no bugs related to this change.
• Puerto Rico ceded to the USA after 1900 Campaign Start year.
• AI now utilizes shipbuilding capacity in order to manage the ship construction, so it should not overbuild ships.
• Crew of new ships is now allocated properly during commissioning.

• Fixed a rare issue causing a ship that was refitting to stop its progress.
• Fixed a bug that could cause players to use ships that have been sold to other minor nations.
• Fixed an issue related with crew mechanics which could create NAN funds and permanent damage to the campaign save.
