Humankind’s latest update kicks off the second chapter of the Dia de Los Muertos event. It also features some notable things, including the addition of custom endgame conditions, fixes to the map editor, and military balancing.
The second chapter of the Dia de Los Muertos limited-time event has already begun. Complete three challenges so that you can earn two additional symbols, as well as another border decoration. Here are the challenges you need to accomplish:
- Necropolis: As the Maya or the Aztecs, sacrifice over 30 population to complete a construction.
- Army of Darkness: As a Militarist Culture, use the Iron Reserves ability 4 times in the same Era.
- Civil Evolution: Enact 50 Civics across multiple games.
Endgame Conditions
Update 1.0.5.549 introduces a new feature that allows you to tailor your gaming experience the way you want it. The end condition settings are a set of options you can toggle on or off so that the game will end only until a particular outcome or set of conditions are met.
For example, if you want the match to end only until one empire remains, you can disable everything except for “All Empires Eliminated.”
Map Editor
There are plenty of fixes to the map editor that will make it a bit more stable now than before. Previously, the editor won’t provide you with some needed information about the Territory Limit, which caused loaded maps to generate a ton of errors. This has been resolved in this update.
Besides that, an unknown user interface element would just suddenly be displayed next to the undo/redo buttons. This is unintentional and is already addressed.
