Readme: Version 1.39.0.1 (UI cleanup)

Thanks to ongoing reporting from players and a fairly rapid turn around from our team, we've been able to assemble this hotfix fairly quickly. We didn't anticipate the size of it getting like this, but it could easily be considered its own release. We hope you enjoy and it should improve overall quality of life of playing each day.

World War II Online

Version 1.39.0.1 - August2026

This patch is primarily a cleanup and polish pass for the new user interface, addressing several issues discovered after deployment and improving a few quality-of-life features along the way.

FEATURES

• Added Enhanced Depot Warp: One-click respawn at the selected warp depot. No need to uncheck the MS box or deal with UI clicks.

• Mission origin/persona now automatically updates based on the supply selected during mission creation.

• Airfields are now automatically pre-selected when an airborne unit is chosen as the mission supply.

• For HC: .hccp now has "orders" tab to update orders from HC message.

• Left-clicking a mission now displays drop-down of origin/target/orders info.

FIXES

• Resolved a collision issue affecting Mac users.

• Restored normal functionality to the Squad tab.

• Fixed HUD capture information to correctly display side-specific colors: Allies = Blue, Axis = Red.

• New Mission Creation now properly supports HQ flag utilization.

• Theater Map City Search now functions properly.

• Spawn Protection received another polish pass:

  • First-person models now always render fully.

  • Third-person models remain transparent while Spawn Protection is active.

  • Added a gray visual overlay while Spawn Protection is active.

• New Persona Selection now correctly displays the associated units on the Brigade Roster tab.

• Updated the German Sapper manual to show the Kar98 instead of the Luger. 

• Instant Action now selects a paratrooper when joining a para mission instead of selecting the aircraft. Turns out the plane wasn't supposed to jump.

• Aircraft carriers are no longer selected by default when creating an Air Force mission. The town's primary airfield will now be selected instead.

• Fallen Soldier statue received normals texture and looks better.

• Fixed a road transition to be smoother.

• Ju87B/G-2 altimeter and gyro gauges now display properly.
