- everything that a normal player doesn't need to know.
Crashes:
- When assigning marines to forge, loading saves and probably some other weird cases (
gml_Script_scr_ui_advisors (line 864)
). - On creation screen role equip (
gml_Object_obj_creation_popup_Draw_0 (line 132)
).
- Made the garbage collector run every minute. Doesn't seem to inflict performance loss and fixes the array corruption. Let's see if there are any caveats.
- Reduced redundancy a bit in error report functions.
- Build Date is displayed in the main menu.
- Error logging edits:
- Error logs now have the pre-built title for the bug report on their first most line. You can just cut and paste it into the title.
- Errors now display a system message and not an in-game popup, as there are some unintended consequences with popup.
- Error message itself is edited a bit, for clarity and to include new instructions.
- Error itself is now wrapped in markdown codeblock.
- Error logs now also display Build Date, for when there are different builds of the same version.
- Chapter fleet tab is edited (#69).
- Carrying is now displayed in the tooltip, when hovering over a ship.
- Ship list is edited, overlapping text fixed, headers added.
- Ship images are now white on black.
- Welcome message is edited (#70).

- Edited bits of text a little and changed some formatting, so it's more nice and readable (I hope).
- Increased the amount of info on each page after the first, removing the need for the 4th page.
- Crashes:
- Garrisons crashing and returning the game to star map.
- Crash during enemy end turn with chaos fleets.
- Crash from trying to spawn chaos warlord with poor methods.
- Crash from bombarding due to old planet name methods.
- Crash when entering company management screen (
tooltip_text
). - Battle crashes related to
obj_pnunt
(#29). - Unknown amount of crashes caused by garbage collector (GC).
- Crash cause by GC on the role equipment slide of creation screen.

obj_ini.experience
deprecated in favour of unit structexperience
variable (#37).- Game Version and Build Date are now handled through an external json file.
- Game Version is tracked through
global.game_version
, Build Date throughglobal.build_date
. scr_fleet_advisor
is refactored a bit. Less hardcoding, should be easier to adjust (#69).- All string manupulation functions are moved into
scr_string_functions
(#70). handle_exception()
in all catch statements.scr_click_left

- accepts an exception struct, usually from a try-catch loop, displays an error and creates an error log.integer_to_letters()
- converts an integer to an english word, supports ordinal forms.
- Due to a fix to save/loading of equipment stockpiles, that involved the usage of new save/loading methods, when you load a save from another version, stockpiles of your equipment will not be loaded with a 98% chance.
- I'm unaware if it's possible to fix this by save editing and assume that it's not.
- As such, either equip all of your important stuff on your marines on an older version, save and then load it on the new version (equipped gear should be untouched).
- Or just use `additem "Item Name" quantity" to cheat all lost items in, remember to write all of them down on an older version beforehand.
- You've been warned. :)

A rework of how squads function and some UI is planned for an upcoming update :)
Here is our discord with 500 people, and about a dozen devs where we constantly work on the game, feel free to join the dev process!
Version 0.8.1.0.0
This version is to mainly ensure stability and add content that wasn't quite ready for 0.8
++++ Added ++++
The Sons of Dorn, The Imperial Fists!
In a future update, Imperial Fists' Huscarls will start with storm shields :)
++++ Changed ++++
Companies are now numbered using roman numerals. Like Terra intended
++++ Fixed ++++ Some various Crash to desktop bug fixes
Version: 0.8.0.0.0
We have skipped a few versions to ensure clarity with other projects
++++ Added ++++
All Marines can now be old guards. Spawning them with different armour than what they are meant to. Expect Assault marines to have the best melee! Starting armours for command marines have been changed. For example all company champions are MK4. Veterans given combi-flamers by default new sprites for weapons and armour many new weapons and gear including Electro-flail, Sarissa, Seraphim Pistols, Stalker Pattern Bolter and many others MK5 Armor new artifact: Thunder Hammer (replaced Relic Blade) killing a warboss should now create a victory shrine on the planet changelog for the repo cheatcodes
++++ Changed ++++
many weapon and gear stat tweaks numerous under-the-hood refactors and changes (they won't have an effect on gameplay, but they make development easier) changed all instances of 'Armor' to 'Armour' moved some chapter icons into the custom icons folder, allowing players to toggle their visibility in-game
++++ Fixed ++++
vehicles should load on ships now at the start of the game vehicles should no longer have unlimited ammo marines should no longer duplicate during battles some stuff not appearing in Armamentarium (including Void Shield Heavy, Assault Cannon and some other things) the UI should now show proper amount of marines after a defensive battle it should now be possible to recruit from planets containing billions of pops (previous it had to be either below 1 billion or above 50 billions) enemy escorts should not teleport around after another enemy ship gets boarded. Also escorts should be fully boardable now text typos numerous CTDs Removed: faith (temporily, it was causing crashes when attacking Sisters of Battle, will be readded in the future)
Version 0.6702
Hotfixes a critical error regarding not being able to save the game lol oops
Version 0.6701
changelog:
Hot fixed lamenters, they no longer get black rage, they have 2 strike cruisers, as well as 30 gene seed
buffed bolter just a little so it's actually better than a pistol
if your chapter master dies, game over!
Version 0.67000
Hello I'm Zab1019. Head dev ( i guess) of the restoration and renewed development of Chapter Master
There's about 8 active contributors total. A few being artists, but mostly coders.
Our github is open source, and linked on our discord in our dev channels
Chapter Master Discord has made an open source project of this. Now titled "Chapter Master Adeptus Dominus"
We hope you enjoy the ride along this awesome project with us!
Discord: https://discord.gg/zAGpqHzsXQ
Changelog:
++++ Added the Soul Drinkers: They are daemon binder using, and soon shall turn renegade. Their numbers aren't great, but start with 60 gene seed, and 4 (FOUR!) battle barges! ++++
++++ Completely reworked the recruitment system for neophytes from the ground up. Recruitment trials are mostly planet based, and none of them are strictly the best. They all have their own different scenarios where they are good. If a planet has under 50% of it's max possible population, you recruit 20% less neophytes from there. Currently there's no way to increase pop on a planet you have, but will be added soon. ++++
Hives by far have the most recruits, but very little exp Lava,death, ice, and desert have the least, but have more exp everything else is in the middle
xp and promotion amounts have been reworked, reminder you can simply disable requirements in chapter settings. But you cannot for terminators or thunder hammers
terminators = 180 thunder hammers = 140
A decent amount of enemies have been rebalanced. Expect ground combat to be harsher. A more thorough rework is still due for ground combat
++++ The marine's equipment has been entirely redone. Now mostly more expensive, but more worth it. Duel wielding has been reduced massively. No longer will you be able to have a heavy bolter and a chain sword. Some exceptions exist. Such as axe's purpose now is to be duel wielded, or be used with heavier things. ++++
Chaos marines equipment has been matched to be the same or slightly better than the player's
++++ Rhinos,predators,whirlwhinds,dreadnoughts and land raiders can now have sponsons, turrets, mounts and launchers. Customised with different weapons (plasma sponsons, heavy bolter sponsons, lascannon sponsons, ect.) ++++
Made tau a confirmed spawn 100% of the time. Also increased numbers massively. They can have 3-7 planets at start
++++There are now three different types of chaos cults:++++
Stronghold worlds are somewhat rare, but incredibly powerful. They are named systems (Isstvan, Badab, ect.) and start spawning fleets straight away. Their corruption and traitor presence is rampant. Deal with them quickly!
Rebellion cults are worlds that haven't won over the planet's government yet, but shall within a few dozen turns. They have their name already changed to that colour at game start, so you can tell easily.
Underground cults are the old version of them. You'll only know they exist on a planet via PDF being killed. Rarer than the other forms but still present.
Many things in the code have been improved upon, and bugs fixed. Which makes our lives easy as coders. Also did I mention we are open source? Just join and help us in the discord link above!

Fixed -Bombardment menu now has a close button (Conversion Error) -Scouts being created but have no location. (Source Error) -Promotions to tacticals (My Error.) -Some events causing crashes (These are tricky as I suspect some are conversion errors)
Changes -Increased the range required to find the eldar by 25% (300 to 400), increased the chance of finding them by 5% (now 10%).
New Cheats recruit# = Created # of recruits with 20xp, that will be ready in one turn (No extra equipment) eventg8 = "meet_eldar"
Version 0.6601 GMS2 Hotfix Fixed -Artifacts can now be equipped (Conversion Error) -Ships that are purchased should now function correctly, included a fix on load in case one is bugged. (Source Error?) -Choosing random will now give you advantages and disadvantages (Source Error, incomplete content)
Version 0.6600 GMS2 Notes -With the conversion to GMS2, I cannot guarantee stability. I am only 90% confident nothing of note is broken.
Fixed -Crash caused by getting the STC bonus to vehicle accuracy ad then sending vehicles into combat. -Crash caused by a typo in obj_turn_end_Alarm_0 when Orks invaded. -Transfer showing empty boxes for unit roles company screen. -Ship/world names overlapping with armour in company screen. -Lost ships now return after a random amount of time (10-100 turns). -Splintered ships on creation to now work as intended (I think it's being weird). -Changed the range of boarding to the max range on the parent ship. -Daemon binders no longer resaults in instant failure, instead it will take several encounters with the inquisition before they freak out.

(Will be adding more options at a later date.) -Added symbols on the planets when they have features of interest or require help. (! Coloured threats) -Activated "Cave Network" planetary feature, however temporarily make it equal to Ancient Ruins. -Assault a Necron tomb without a mission, land troops, end turn.

infreq = Toggle infinate requisition infseed = Toggle, gain 9999 geneseed. debug = Toggle debugmode, use at your own peril. (Right click on sector map to create/destroy fleets/invasions) (On planet view, increase or decrease forces) (On Armanentarium screen add STC research for free) test = Test dialogue, dont use. req# = Set requisition to # amount seed# = Set geneseed to # amount recruit# = Created # of recruits with 20xp, that will be ready in one turn (No extra equipment)
*Note all deposition cheats can be negative and are capped between -100 and 100. *Deposition has the format of "depXYZ#" where XYZ is the first 3 letters of a factions name. *EG: "depimp100" sets deposition with the imperium to 100; whereas, depimp-100 sets it to -100. depall# = Set deposition of all factions to an amount. depimp# = Imperium depmec# = Mechanicus depinq# = Inquisition depecc# = Ecclesiarchy depeld# = Eldar depork# = Ork deptau# = Tau deptyr# = Tyranids, this probably wont do anything. depcha# = Chaos
