Performance We now only update fog of war when required (its an expensive calculation to run so this is a significant performance improvement) We now only update the minimap if the moving object is visible to the current player (minmap updates are expensive too) Only update the minimap during the local players turn to minimize interturn duration Improved the speed of resea
