[Huw2k8]

I've switched it for a different one, thanks for the advice

[Huw2k8]

Hey guys, so I've had this stuff coded for a little while and figure I'd put it out as a nice little update, hope you're all doing well

THRONE ROOM OR GNOME ROOM? (9 features)

Some new gnome related throne room events, you'll get biggleroll players and rude insulting gnomes!

* Added new throne room encounter 'Gnome insulter' (includes all 304 random gnome insults)
* Added 4 different gnome exit screens that take place after the gnome insulter encounter
* Added Biggleroll player throne room visitor (if you have discovered the cave gnome village)
* Added new gnome insult 'You make a strong case against randomly generated faces ugly one!' (credit Warzone)
* Added gnome insult encounter intro 'menacing look and loud announcement'
* Added gnome insult encounter intro 'thrice jumping gnome'
* Added gnome insult encounter intro 'prepare yourself'
* Added gnome insult encounter intro 'The cursed corner'
* Added gnome insult encounter intro 'friendly gnome'

CROWNING CEREMONY RECROWNED (24 features)

When being inducted into the wild world of Warsim, it seems only fitting that you are first met by a random and possibly strange crowning ceremony. I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner, but here it is! 20 different crowning events, 200 total possible crowning ceremonies!

* Added semi-randomised ceremony events to the games intro when starting a new world
* Added 'Gold coin from all' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Royal dog' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Royal squid kicking' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Great Shunning' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Dancing Goblin' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Applause' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Drunk in your honour' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Goblin slap' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Bottle smash' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Coin of fate' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Fart' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Stand atop the highest tower' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Scroll of rulers' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Arrow reign' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Chair breaker' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Kicking goblin' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Oooh Snake' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Drinking goblin' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Minute silence' crowning ceremony event
* Added 'Laughing for a positive reign' crowning ceremony event
* Added after ceremony screen
* Added ceremonial intro with 10 varied intro texts
* Fixed bug in crowning ceremony text

THRONE ROOM DEBUG EXPANSION (4 features)

After playing around with the debug system I've fixed the game just straight up freezing/crashing when testing an encounter. Once the game tries to run the throne room event 1000 times it will fail and boot you out.

* Added new screen for encounter selector choice
* Added list of all current encounter types to the encounter selector choice
* Added error message and return to game instead of crash when trying to run a throne room encounter that can't run in debug mode
* Added 'encounter selector is active' indicator to the throne room

CURSED FROG MAN ENCOUNTER EXPANSION (2 features)

Saw this little encounter and got a funny idea. Previously your choice was 150 gold to cure him guarenteed, or refuse and see the disapointed frog man hop away. Now you can try and cut corners with a 4/5 chance of disaster, or a 1/5 chance of nailing it!

* Added new choice 'Have an alchemist brew something cheap' (2 gold) option to the cursed frog man encounter
* Added rare 1 in 5 outcome that the potion will work and give an alternate success screen

COINFLIPPER EXPANSION (28 features)

After the new coinflipper update it's expanded the encounter to be a lot less samey... except when you win all their gold. This had the same blanket response, which wore out pretty fast for me so I've expanded this with a ton of possible outcomes to make it a lot more varied... I'm thinking of you maniacs who like to build big empires and then see every single one of those 2549 visitors.

* Added 'Kids life savings' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold (An extra reward for beating them)
* Added 'Second stash of gold' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold (Abiliy to replay with someone who lost all their gold)
* Added 'Can't go back to my tribe' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold (goblin recruit victory)
* Added 'I'll serve you' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold (peasant recruit victory)
* Added 'Curses' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'You have bested me' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'bows grins and leaves' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'out of gold' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'awkward shuffle' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'enjoy the gold' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'tips' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Wasnt mine' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Wife trouble' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Stolen gold' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Parents gold' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Ones loss' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Teary eyes' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Shock loss' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'I'm out' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Well done' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Deep breath' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Reworked Original' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Good guesser' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Bows' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Angry discovery' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Added 'Ogre poo' reaction for player winning all of coinflippers gold
* Fixed coin flip allowed when player has nothing (credit u/Studphish)
* Added new response when trying to flip with no gold

EVERYTHING ELSE (2 features)

Some little things

* Added ability to skip stones in dockrow
* Added better titles for race prefix selection screens to clearly show which kingdom you are working on if you have multiple of the same race

MERCENARY GROWTH (3 features)

After a while wrestling with and even partially coding a multi attack system for the player and AI it ended up not being feasable, this was unfortunate but as an alternate source of multiple per turn attacks increasing to help with the exponentially growing kingdoms when discovering new lands I opted for this system, and additionally to not make it one sided in the players favour I spent some time creating a system that allows enemies to use mercs too!

* Added new notification when discovering new lands
* Made discovering new lands increase all merc groups current and max yearly attacks by 1
* Made discovering new lands increase all future merc groups max yearly attacks by 1

MERCS OF THE ENEMY (17 features)

This has always been something that should have been a thing, but now enemy kingdoms can hire mercenaries and use them to fight you and their enemies! There are some rules and structure to it but otherwise you'll see the mercs getting a lot more use. Want your favourite group safe from being used? Hire them permanently instead of for one off attacks.

* Added 50% chance factions will consider hiring mercs to fight for them at the end of each turn
* Made Krut and Erak only able to use goblin mercenaries
* Made merc groups unhirable if already hired by the player or if all of their yearly attacks are used
* Made it so that only goblin mercs can be hired by savage kingdoms

RACEPACK EXPANSION (1 feature)

A steam user pointed out that if you choose random race packs you can sometimes end up with a pretty bad batch and just have to either roll with it or restart the game, It didn't take long to put this in and now you can keep rerolling till you find that batch that suits you and your world!

* Added ability to re-roll races from random racepacks (credit Willow Ufgood)

SCREEN COLOUR ADJUSTMENT (6 features)

After a steam discussion I decided to add this system to the game allowing the background colour to be changed to a number of pre-sets!

* Added new option in in-game settings menu to adjust screen colour (credit Kawasaky)
* Added white background screen pre-set
* Added light grey background screen pre-set (credit diplomametolius)
* Added dark grey background screen pre-set (credit diplomametolius)
* Added ability for player to make a custom colour set
* Made each colour option link to the players save so you can have different settings for different saves

EVERYTHING ELSE (1 feature)

Viva Warsim

[Huw2k8]

This is an exciting update for me, all factions are now covered by the combat update code, and we have WARBEASTS!

​Hello everyone,

It's been too long since Warsim has had an update, and that as usual makes me feel a bit uncomfortable. The reason for the wait is a good one though, this adventurers update has ballooned into one of the biggest Warsim updates ever with over 7 billion new Warsim adventurer quests added, a total overhaul of Adventurers with much deeper effects in the world, new and revised systems for contacting them and conducting diplomacy and tons more!

It's nearing the final stages now as all I have to do is finish my testing, getting the saving and loading of the adventurer files to work better, and then it should be good to go.

I have two main concerns on the road to this updates release.

During a playtest where I spawned 10x the number of groups than the game default provides, I ran 300 years of adventuring and near the end, for no clear reason, there was a lone crash. I went back and tried to replicate it with no success, and I honestly have no clue what could have caused it.

I'm honestly sad it was so rare because the cause of it could be literally anything. There is nothing worse than a crash bug and those are the ones I focus on most.

The other concern is that the update has so many new features and parts that mentioning them in one changelog might be too big to post on as most places have a character limit and I have had this issue before with a previously gargantuan update, I suppose that's a good problem to have unlike the former!

Regardless, thank you for reading and following along, Warsim work is still plowing on even if you aren't seeing any updates!

Cheers and all the best

Huw
