DelviIt is not clear which file to download. There are a lot of files in the list.

Added a direct link to the um.dll file on the first post!

L'GaroldСпасибо! Я правильно понял - запускать можно будет через стандартный *.exe и при этом мод на правку AI от товарища RedHavenHero будет уже включён в патч?

}{0TT@6bI4Great! Will 5.5 git-library patches affect work of exe with this dll?

Only if the patches from 5.5 repo overlap the one from the dll. Dont use the patches that do the same thing as the DLL patch notes and you are good.

Added a note in compatibility section about patch being not compatible with the Map Editor. So far noone has reported issues but it is possible to make the editor crash when used.
The solution is just to revert to the original um.dll for that moment.

Removed compatibility note from the main post as after some tests it seems the DLL is not used by the Editor exe so there is no chance for crashes.
