Comments
You can find a how-to-use video for this module on YouTube.

NOTE: to use the newest features, do NOT use the predefined game setups to create a new game. Instead, set your table with the "color score sheet", "color goods display", "player aid", and map of choice. Also pull the appropriate player mats from the Pieces tray.

v1.71

 * Improvements
 * -Improved accuracy on Shares To Issue calculator.
 * -Additional scripting to collect income, pay expenses, and do income reduction; must use "color score sheet" and player mats from the Pieces tray.

v1.52

 * Improvements
 * -Simplified many controls (fewer control-buttons; use left/right/up/down arrows or simple key presses instead).
 * -New player color options, with matching tokens and player mats.


 * New features
 * -Income Sheet tokens now track income, engine level, shares issued.
 * -Net (Income - Expenses) calculated automatically.
 * -Ownership markers can now indicate track VP value (need to update them manually).
 * -VP (track and income-shares) calculated automatically.
 * -Includes a calculator for shares-to-issue; MUST choose player color when joining game. NOTE: issue shares to cover bid+build costs first, then consult the calculator.
 * -Player count button to update Turn Track; map extensions (anything v1.5 and later) may use that information if needed.

v1.43

 * This is a significantly modified version of the original module: new graphics, different map (Portugal -- thanks, Vital Lacerda!), additional functionality.
 * NOT necessarily compatible with extensions made for the original module.
 * Each of the .vmdx files should be saved in a folder ("AgeOfSteam_v1.43_ext"), in the same location as the base AgeOfSteam_v1.43.vmod file.
 * How to use: after opening the module, you can create a new game. Use one of the predefined setups in the menu, or create your own layout of boards (you'll generally need to choose the color goods display, color score sheet, the map, and the player area). When a player is joining a game, they must choose a player color. However, this is ONLY relevant for the Secret Blueprints expansion (where everyone has a personal window kept hidden from everyone else); for every other map (so far), just choose "observer". More details are in the help file in the module.
