v4.4.2 Patch Notes
Ages of Conflict: World War Simulator Patch Notes — June 18, 2026
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hey everyone!
This update mainly focuses on the Flag tools, and should make painting them easier. The biggest change is for the line tool, which can now go in any direction, as opposed to just straight horizontally and vertically.
To draw a line: Hold shift, and click and hold on the initial position and drag towards the end point. Then let go to accept the current line.
Circle tool has also been improved in a way where it now shows a preview of the circle when you hold down Alt. In addition the shape of circles has also been improved, so hopefully they now look smoother!
In addition, some new colours, patterns and icons have been added to the Random Flag options.
For maps with lots of occupied territory, you can now Right Click on an occupation at it will select its rightful owner. This is especially useful for quickly selecting dead nations.
