Description:

###Mode for Navy Lover###
Fixed the problem AI avoiding naval engagement, operating only a small fleet, and producing old ships.
The balance has been modified so that the United States has a historically strong navy.
Increased energy output to address the issue of coal cutting late factory output.

###Increased USA Factory###

Mil 10 -> 10
Dock 22 -> 42
Civ 128 -> 154

###Balance###

Increased USA building Slots

40% more production for Dockyard

USA, ENG, JAPAN ai now produce more capital ships

GER ai now produce more capital ships when they have enough dockyards

GER ai will focus on sub when they lose almost of their capital ships

Improved Ai Ship Design for USA ENG JPN GER

ENG will try to produce more convoy when they need more

Improved Yamato Super Heavy Ship Design

USA Montana-class battleship Design added If the war is prolonged and there are super battleship technologies, the ai will produce..

USA will build more dockyard

More Navy XP gain from combat

Navy fule consumtion decreased by 50%

ships resource cost reduced

improved ai armor division templates

ai will less split capital ships and make bigger task forces

carrier number, bigger task force penalty decreased

Improved aircraft design for GER/ENG/USA

Solved the problem that ENG/USA/JAPAN ai did not produce Navy 1939/1943 version of the ship

Energy production from coal increases (33% increase)

The United States has more coal resources

The United States has more steel/chromium resources(Added enough to match resource consumption by increased construction slots)

###UPDATE 2025/11/25###

In vanilla, there was a problem that the USA ship could not travel between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans due to the issue of range of navigation because the ai did not change its home port. To solve this problem, we set the range of navigation of all ships except submarines as the range of navigation of the latest ships.

USA, ENG and JAPAN will now prioritize sending patrol and strike task force to those waters if hostile ships exist close to their own mainland.

ENG will actively carry out anti-submarine activities and will eliminate enemies that threaten its transport ships.

USA will protect ENG instead if it is deemed no longer capable of protecting its own mainland.

###UPDATE 2025/12/14###
The supply consumption of ships has been significantly reduced. (90% Reduced)

In the current supply system, if a fleet suffers from supply shortages, carrier-based aircraft lose organization and are unable to sortie. Fleet supply is calculated based on the home port, but the AI does not take this into account and often selects a nearby port in the operational area as its home port—even if that port has extremely poor supply capacity.

As a result, almost all AI fleets, except for small patrol groups, end up in a constant state of supply shortage. Consequently, aircraft carriers are unable to participate in combat in most cases. This issue is especially noticeable for the United States, as it often fights near Japan while setting its home ports to Pacific islands, causing the majority of its carriers to be unable to engage in battles.

To address this problem, the supply consumption of ships has been greatly reduced. This change resolves the issue where aircraft carriers fail to participate in combat due to fleet supply shortages.

###UPDATE 2025/12/17###
Fixed an issue where the AI did not properly upgrade the navel bombers torpedo.
