I've been absent too much to be able to properly judge if this feature is sufficiently developed to be included into the release, for that I need the feedback from others.
I don't recall, has this feature already been merged into master, or is development of this feature still going on in an unmerged branch? In the latter case, see above, my proposal is not to merge feature branches at this point anymore.
Geoff is actively developing on the Government branch - I can not comment on the state of it. I think you can choose policies for three kinds of policy slots, there is some influence generation, policy changing cost and maybe influence upkeep cost and some policy content. Definitely AI does not know about influence at all. So I doubt this can be release-ready in two months.
I agree. Again, see above, it's an unmerged feature branch, so I propose not to include this into 0.4.9.
There was some work on python, not sure if we are completely python3-ready.
As long as nothing is broken if that transition is unfinished, I wouldn't necessarlily wait for that project to be finished. Sounds like something that will take a long time yet anyway.
What kind of release this gonna be? Only polished, balanced stuff or rather new features for collecting feedback?
The former, with the occasional already merged new feature (do we have any of these?). There has been done a lot for multiplayer and standalone servers AFAIK, so that would probably the most noticeable feature of 0.4.9.
I have following features high on my list:
...
Unless any of these are already in master and need to be finished so the game isn't broken, please postpone.
There are some issues with combat and blockades which should probably fixed for the release.
Bugs need to be fixed of course. Can anyone provide more details on these issues? Or are there already proper issues open on github?
