President Infinity – v. 3.2.9

Note: 3.1.1j is now ‘President Infinity Classic’. 3.2.9 is the latest official.

Where we’re going from here.

  1. Continue expanding Editor capabilities.
  2. Continue updating official 2020 campaign.

President Infinity v. 3.2.9 for Windows and Mac has been released!

This release allows for daily spinning while in 7 days per turn mode, fixes a bug where Surrogates couldn’t do activities, sets Biden’s default Veep nominee to Kamala Harris, and adds the Editor > Vice-Leaders Screen (fully functional)!

Note: if you have campaigns you have made from President Infinity Classic, it is recommended that you back these up first. Although there should be no problems loading and playing them, this simply errs on the side of caution. If the campaign formatting is unknown, the campaign will be re-written to disk using the new formatting without backing up the original version. If a campaign XML file’s syntax has to be updated, it will backup automatically, however.

See notes below. This version will not overwrite your existing official release install, so you can play the new official version while still playing your previously installed official release (‘Classic’).

Version 3.2.9 adds

  • can now spin each day when 7 days per turn on
  • Surrogates Screen > fixed bug where couldn’t click Activities if surrogate didn’t have image
  • 2020 > Biden > default Veep > Kamala Harris
  • Editor > Veeps Button enabled
  • Editor > Vice-Leaders Screen > fully functional

Limited Editor. Save-load is considered an experimental feature right now (slow for typical games starting in the primaries, with save times in the minutes for a typical 2020 primaries start, and loads multiples of that).

  2. Continue expanding Editor capabilities.
  3. Continue updating official 2020 campaign.

Note: if you have campaigns you have made, it is recommended that you back these up first. Although there should be no problems loading and playing them, this simply errs on the side of caution.

  1. Expand Editor capabilities.
  2. Improve save-load times and bugs.
  3. Continue updating official 2020 campaign.

President Infinity Beta v. 3.2.7 for Windows and Mac has been released!

This release fixes a bug with starting a game with 3rd parties (Libertarian, Green) and a bug with debate prep., adds the Primary Results Screen, shows the Spin Screen automatically at the beginning of a turn, and adds the Editor (but only editing the name, credits, and blurbs allowed at this point – this will be expanded gradually).

Note: if you have campaigns you have made, it is recommended that you back these up first. Although there should be no problems loading and playing them, this simply errs on the side of caution. If the campaign formatting is unknown, the campaign will be re-written to disk using the new formatting without backing up the original version.

  • Activities > Debate Prep. > fixed bug where would add multiples of same debate every time viewed Debate Info Screen, caused bug where wouldn’t update to next debate

Very limited Editor. It may crash or have other bugs. Save-load is considered an experimental feature right now (only recommended for games starting in the general election, outside of testing purposes – it is very slow for typical games starting in the primaries, with save times in the minutes for a typical 2020 primaries start, and loads multiples of that).
