eh... this is in a file on github/site and ingame as well.

What would help is just the balance changes, stripping the ones that got (partially) reverted in a later version.

So... just 9.46 -> 10.22, not all the steps in between with the irrelevant bugfixes/ui/gfx changes

9.46 -> 10.24
24/02/2019

Balance change summary: 9.46 - 10.24 (22/09/2016 - 24/02/2019)

General
• Costs rounded (deviation: 0 - 1.5%)
• Global weapon/explosion area-of-effect 'edgeeffectiveness' buff of 0.15 (as a correction for collision volume been made smaller around 2012-2013)
• Death/selfd unit explosion damages have changed, due to graphical effect size being linked to its damages. (mostly for non significant units)
• When reclaiming a feature, the income that it generates consists of two parts: a fixed part that is the minimal speed, and an additional part, proportional to the build power.
The minimal reclaim speed when reclaiming features has been lowered from 60/s to 12.5/s. The additional speed that each point of build power provides has been increased by an 11.25x factor (0.02 => 0.225). This results in reclaimers under 225 bp being slower, and those over 225 bp being faster than what they were in 9.46
• Some (mostly) useless order/state buttons removed like t1 mex on/off, antinuke firestate, various buildings with repeat/stop/wait without function

Behavior
• Cheap "Nanoframe shielding" countermeasure: a nanoframe (unfinished unit) will only get hit when its build over 5%
• Flamethrower weapons dont spray as wide as before (looks better)
• EMP units (bladewing/emp-spider/stiletto/dragonfly) wont target non-emapable or underwater units
• Some missile speeds adjusted to start slightly slower and accelerate a bit faster

Movement
• Continuous aiming. Units aim before weapons have loaded. Starts when enemy at weapon range +10% (no +10% for llt's and popups)
• Reverse move ability for: (with limited speed) corban,armmanni,armmart,armart,corwolv,cortrem
• Omnidirectional 'raw' unit pathing, instead of limited to just 8 directions
• Unit movement stats adjusted: maxspeed/acceleration/brakerate/turnrate to cope with new engine behavior. (no more constant wiggling that slowed down units and thus never reaching maxspeed)
• Vehicles/hovers: reduced max speed after engine change (avg -11%) and standardized accelrate/brakerate according to maxspeed and turnrate
• Kbots: +15% brakerate/accel/turnrate
• All: movement: turninplace = true, anglelimit = 90
• Improved Air Units maneuverability and lowered turnradius (allowing close move commands)
• Transports load/drop behavior changed due to its code being stripped from the engine side
• Hovercraft can now be transported

Commanders
• Buildrange +30%
• Comblast lethal range to other coms reduced 20%
• Torso turnspeed +33%, dgun reloadspeed -10%
• Underwater walk speed decreases to 66% of it's value at depth > 47
• Underwater laser dps increased to 150 (default) and 75 (subs)
• Decoy commanders: cost -8%, buildoptions: Radar, LLT and AA, lasers/buildpower from commander

Units
• Fark: workerspeed +16%
• Stumpy/Raider/Bulldog/Reaper: metal cost +5%
• Bulldog: Area of Effect -7%
• Reaper: health -2%
• Maverick: health +7%
• Shellshocker/Wolverine: reloadtime -5%
• Luger/Pillager: damage +10%, lowered turnrate
• Merl: range +7%
• Diplomat: range +6%
• Morty: speed -5%, less acurate (almost unnoticeably)
• Tremor: metal cost -10%, accuracy +15%
• Pelican: damages +15%, health +15%, turretspeed +33%
• EMP spider: auto heals +15 hp per second (ba9.37 had 30 before it was removed)
• Banisher: missile blows up in the air after it is out of fuel
• Sniper: weapon hit explosion has a distinct red color tint

T3
• Vanguard: damage +15%
• Marauder: damage +10%, health +5%
• Shiva: sightdistance +74%
• KrogStomp reintroduced vs scouts/pws/aks
• Underwater gantries: removed Lun/Sokolov (heavy hovercraft)

Air
• T1 Airlabs: cost -5% (m and e equally)
• T1 Aircons: buildpower +10%, energy cost -10%, buildtime -10%
• Sea aircons: buildpower +10%, cost decreased (ARM: m:273->150, e:25677->7800, CORE: m:271-140, e:25650->8200)
• Fighters: wont slow down and stick behind their targets, this resulted in clumps of fighters killing each other by their missile AoE and death explosions
• Fighters: range +22% (due to slower missile speed and missile turnrate)
• Fighters: explode with less damage (half damage, 2/3 AoE)
• Thunder: health +7%, speed +4%
• Hurricane/Phoenix: between before and after the nerf of BA v7.92 (decreased buildtime and reduced energy cost)
• Liche: maxspeed -5% maxSpeed, energy cost +5%, buildTime +2.5%, damage to commander 3350 -> 3150
• Cutlass: health -20%, damages -15%
• T2 air transports: loads up to four 2x2 footprint or less units, or one 3x3 unit. Unloads all units at once.

AA
• Added "Set Priority" command order menu toggle (Fighters/Bombers/No priority)
• Packo/Sam: single missile per shot instead of duos (same dps)
• Chainsaw/Eradicator: energy cost -16%, airlos 1000 -> 1060, range 1050 -> 1125, missile starts faster
• Archangel: missile damages +33%
• Manticore: flak reload time -18%

Buildings
• Guardian/Punisher: metal cost -16%
• Toaster/Ambusher: range +4%
• T2 mexes: use 20 energy instead of 25 (exploiter 12 -> 20)
• Moho Exploiter: health same as regular moho (2000 -> 3500), decreased damage per shot (-22%)
• Viper: missile explodes at ~maxrange, preventing ridiculous overshooting (missile speed -14%)
• Nano: self-d does more damage than basically non-existent

Long range plasma
• Plasma shields: 50% weaker to non LRPC shots, range +10%, cost -20%
• Vulcan/Buzzsaw: cost +40%
• Bertha/Intimidator: Area of Effect +15%


Sea redesign

9. 46 sea pros and cons:
• + Micromanagement orientated / limited in numbers due to overall higher metal costs
• + High early game stakes
• + Many theoretical possibilities (amphibs, hovercrafts, seaplanes, ships, submarines)
• - Not much substance beside the very first 5-8 minutes
• - Repetitive gameplay, mostly relying on 2 units (destroyers and scouts)
• - Lack of interactions with land due to uneffective/high costs on the alternative units (amphibs, hovers, seaplanes)
• - Combomb occluding many of the possibilities because of its strong place in sea gameplay (early combomb versus destroyers + reclaim)

What has been attempted with BA 10:
• Keep the prices high enough that sea cannot truely be "spammed", and insist micro and unit combinations
• Increase the number of possibilities following a sea start
• Improve the dynamic of the game / ensure it's possible to tech/switch strategies without any downtime
• Give more space to non-destroyers / specialize unittypes / add more situations that don't require destroyers
• Add more possibilities of land/sea interactions
• Lower commander Max Speed underwater, thus making underwater combomb be more of a casual/opportunistic strategy

Core changes:
• Transport ship load/unload underwater was disabled
• Hovercraft transportation was enabled
• Overall lower costs, lower Build Times, lower Build Speeds, lighter ships
• Reworked movement type: Turninplace with 90 anglelimit, accel and brake rates based on turnrate
• More durable wrecks (+100% Health)
• Distinction between depthcharges (underwater only) and torpedoes (underwater and surface)
• 2 completely new units:
- Nano platform: similar to nano turret, on a floating platform
- Plasma ships: All purpose, surface only, plasma cannon ship
• Reintroduced T2 torpedo launchers, with increased firepower and costs
• 4 completely reviewed units:
- T1 Geos: can be built underwater (mostly when using map_waterlevel)
- T1 Offshore mexes, in place of underwater mexes: replicate an expansion / mex raiding phase similar to land
- Lun: 1150m/33000e, 4750hp, UW capable cannon, 370 aoe Damages per 1. 8s
- Sokolov: 950m/12000e, 3800hp, Surface only Heavy beam laser, 2150 Damages over 1s per 9s
• One deleted unit:
- T1 Sonar station with sonar added to T1 Floating radar tower, scouts, torpedo launchers and amphibious tanks
• Reviewed Amphibious complex build menus / removed submarines from it
• Reviewed Seaplane platform as a proper T1. 5 lab / adjusted costs aswell as the constructor's costs and menu
• Reviewed the T1 and T2 ships roles and stats to fit:
- Corvette: raider, fast, high dps/cost, low armor
- Patrol Boats: Support role (not a scout), anti-air, vision, sonar, light laser
- Plasma Frigates: All purpose, raider and skirmisher, good dps, relatively fast, medium armor
- Destroyer: Skirmisher role, long Max Range plasma, embarked sonar, depthcharge launcher, slow, heavy armor
- Submarine: Underwater skirmisher, high Damages torpedos, very light armor, good maneuvrability.
- Cruiser: T2 Raider, high dps, sonar, depthcharge launcher, fast, medium armor (relative to other t2 ships)
- Submarine Killer: Support, very high burst Damages, weak armor, low manoeuvrability, long Max Range.
- Anti Air Ship: Support, anti air, medium armor.
- Carriers: Economic support (energy production 250 -> 300), air repairs, antinuke, radar
- Battleships: Skirmisher role, high aoe Damages, heavy armor, fast, poor manoeuvrability
- Missile ship: Artillery role, cluster missiles, high aoe Damages, low armor/manoeuvrability, slow, radar, light antiair
- Flag ship: Artillery/Skirmisher, low artillery Damages at long Max Range, high aoe Damages at medium Max Range, very heavy armor, very low manoeuvrability, slow, radar
