v10 Changelist is as follows:
First and foremost ... MASSIVE thank you to /u/Delnar_Ersike for the incredibly huge amount of work he put into upgrading the code base. You are a beast and a legend! Thank you so much for all you do for the NQ community! <3
GAMEPLAY[]
- Barbarian Camps - Notifications of barbarian camps that spawn in the fog of war are now delivered to all civs from the beginning of the game by default (instead of needing to open Honor).
Added 3 new game options in game set up screen you can toggle on if you want to:
- Disable AI spreading religion to human player's cities.
- Disable AI from building wonders.
- [Multiplayer Lobby only] Enable relative turn timers: The way this works is that the number you choose for Turn Timer length becomes a % multiplier for the "extra time" each turn is allotted (there is a base turn time that is never affected). So for example, picking "50" would make the extra time be half (50%) of its normal, and picking "100" would make it be unmodified (100%), and picking "150" would make turn timers have 50% extra time (150% total).

UI[]
- Reverted alphabetical sorting in Single Player -> Set Up Game -> Select Civilization (was causing a weird bug where the list was invisible, could only access it via the Advanced Setup).
- Also fixed a bug where "Random Leader" was somehow displaying "Ottomans" instead.
- The old version naming was confusing. Now instead whenever you are in Advanced Setup (single or multiplayer) it will say at the top of the screen "NQMod v10" or whatever version YOU are on. You will not be able to see what others are running, just make sure you label your games appropriately so people will notice discrepancies.
