Going Medieval News

Greetings medievalists!

We'll be hosting our first AMA ("ask me anything") session for Going Medieval on our Discord server. You can ask us any questions you like about the game, game development, or ANYTHING you want!

The event will start on Thursday, 25th November at 3:00 PM CET and will last for one hour.

So, join our Discord at https://discord.gg/goingmedieval. On 25th, we'll make a new channel where you'll be able to post your questions and we'll try to reply to as many as we can (be sure to pass the initial discord verification first if you are new to the server). We are excited to see you there!

Greetings medievalists!

Now that the Update #2 is out, let’s talk about the things we are working on. The period after the big update is always busy, because when we’re not fixing present issues within the game, we’re discussing and planning how to approach Update 3.

Yes, we have internal milestones, but the content of those milestones are influenced by various things. This includes suggestions and reported bugs provided by you, the community.

Here is a brief tease of what we’ve decided to tackle! We decided to extrapolate the usability of a certain resource types, to expand temperature influence, to differentiate factions a bit better, crops system will receive an upgrade, we will introduce a couple of new effectors for your settlers as well as more things for them to do and stand out a bit better with. Beyond that, we plan to introduce new furniture, buildings and other quality of life improvements.

We can’t wait to show you more in the coming weeks as we discuss everything mentioned above in more detail and accompany it with the proper screenshots.

While you wait, we invite you to join our Discord server (if you haven’t done so already), and share your settlements, game experiences, tips and tricks, partake photo challenges, show off your heraldry and give feedback on the existing feature, or even suggest a new one.

Thank you for your time, folks.

Greetings medievalists! The new hotfix (0.6.2.6) is now live on all platforms. Please save your progress and restart your game client to update. You should be able to load normally and continue playing. If you have any problems, please let us know.
[h3]Bugs and Fixes[/h3]

• Fixed the crash caused by using the relocate function for some construction - if the player would place a blueprint on a voxel, then cancel it, then repeat the process on the same voxel two more times, after the third time - it would result in a crash.
  
• Fixed the progress blocker caused by pausing the game at the same time the Autosave feature triggers.
  
• Fixed the issue when using multi selection (via double click) on walls OR windows, both would be selected in this process. Now, a multi selection of walls will select only walls separately like when doors are being multi selected. Windows selection works the same way.
  
• Fixed the issue where settlers that are sent in a Caravan would appear as "Settler Died" events in the Historical Records menu.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused traded Items and resources, or ones given as gifts, to still be displayed in the Caravan Info Tab.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused the roof to collapse if the construction of the door was started in a room next to a wall. Player would cancel construction of the door and, with that action, cause the roof above the door to collapse.
  
• Fixed the issue that would cause resources/items to decay from weather events even though there was a roof above them. The roof would not properly register sometimes, if created during the weather event.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused the counter in the Research Menu to corrupt when selling/gifting allocated Books.
  
• Fixed the issue where players were not able to get a Retribution achievement
  
• Fixed the issue where the Room types could be created using the Structure Pile variant of the required structures.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused stored items in storage structures (chest, racks) to disappear after the voxels under those structures have been mined.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused the blueprint to cancel itself when the blueprint beneath it was finally constructed.
  
• Fixed various issues related to missing text.
  

Quality of life improvements

• Leaf particles have been added to trees. (This can be turned off in options menu, within ‘Graphics’)
  
• Added particles for when a production is finished.
  
• Weight cap has been added to traders - trading can’t continue if the merchant can't carry any more resources (players can't gift 100k limestone to a visitor anymore. Yeah. Sorry :) ).
  
• Settlements have a slightly different stock if they are mountain or valley settlements (wood and stone/gold/iron have different price modifiers and amounts).
  
• Locking a merchant now makes the faction lose alignment (-5/h), also a note will appear when a merchant wants to leave, but is locked in.
  
• Keybindings for panels (4,5,6) work on the world map now.
  

Talk to you soon!

Thanks,

[h3]Bugs and Fixes[/h3]

• Fixed several rare crash occurrences.
  
• Fixed the issue where graves could be built on top of floor tiles if the blueprint was placed over a Stockpile that's located over the Floor.
  
• Fixed the issue where copying the settings for the allowed resources from a Chest, Rack, Shelf or Stockpile and pasting them in the same structure made the checkboxes to appear as unmarked.
  
• Fixed the issue where the text boxes were not reverting to the default values when higher/lower values are entered more than once in the Transform tab from the Edit Heraldry menu.
  
• Fixed the issue where modifying a settler's name in the Settlers Selection screen had no impact outside of the profile tab.
  
• Fixed various issues related to the UI of the Settlers Selection screen.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused the Alignment status of Permanently Hostile Factions to be modified by returning settlers during Runaway events.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused Heraldry to disappear from the Pause Menu and Summary Screen.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused the "Send Caravan" button to not become greyed out once a Caravan has been designated to go to the settlement.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused the Crop Field to appear as floating over the ground if the player would place crops on one location, and then mine those same voxels.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused the Order buttons to lose functionality if the Info Tab of any item/resource/structure was opened prior to entering the Region Map.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused cancelling the Relocate order when settlers are working on the initial structure to not work as intended.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused facial hair of loaded settlers' presets to not appear as previously saved.
  
• Fixed the issue that would block the floor from being constructed beneath the trap, if the trap was built first.
  
• Fixed text formatting in the caravan trading screen.
  

Known Issues
We are aware of these issues and you don't need to report them:

• Resources counter displays wrong numbers in some situations after gifting/trading with the merchant.
  
• Animations tend to freeze in some scenarios.
  

Please note, if you are using unofficial mods (especially those related to character customization) you might experience crashes. If you do, turn the mods off before starting the game.

• Fixed several rare crash occurrences.
  
• Fixed the issue that caused settlers to go to sleep on the ground even though there are available beds in the settlement. This was caused by merchant appearing and idling.

• Settlement stock will not refresh every time player access it.
