Warlordocracy News

Made it so you can give items to party members using the drop command. Also fixed a MAJOR bug from back in v8.0 that fucked up party positions when travelling to new maps (thanks to Utnapishtim just now). Lots of other little fixes.

Complete list of changes:

-Dropping an item on a party member now gives it to them (tooltip now "Drop/Give").
-Inventory and character windows don't show unless you also have a character selected.
-New script command: "objMobCharScreen" to show full character screen of current mobile object.
-New script command: "storyDemo" to delete all maps after given map ID (to easily make demo versions).
-Command resets to Interact after using abilities or dropping items (so you can see the game messages).
-Fixed bug with leftover text after closing character screen, removed arrow buttons if character is not in party.
-Fixed bug where changing volume in journal settings wouldn't immediately change volume.
-Fixed major bug with "objPos" command fucking up object positions when changing maps.
-"ObjMobPlayer" script command must now be set to 0 or 1 (0 cancels player).
-Added inventory load info to character screen.
-Added dog bark sounds to AI script.
-Updated Chapter 2 Demo.

There is now a character info screen that lets you cycle through all the party members and see all their stats and inventory at once. Also, all object descriptions are condensed into an encyclopedia to keep save files smaller, and you can look up key words now from the journal settings. I'll improve encyclopedia interface later. You can also adjust the HUD transparency now, and lots of other little fixes.

Improved pathfinding a bit, especially around doors. You can now throw empty bottles just like stones, vases, and plates. Lots of other little fixes.

Warlordocracy will be 33% off tomorrow for Steam Strategy fest.

Will work on pathfinding more after Chapter 2. It doesn't help that interiors are on the same map so you can shoot out windows, because fuck Elder Scrolls where windows don't exist.

-AI now prioritizes closer hostile mobiles when looking for targets, also optimized AI framerate.
-If Party AI is set to advanced, party now targets hostiles up to 4 paces away (first checks 2 paces away).
-Closed doors are now excluded from obstacle avoidance checks (so pathfinding will open closed doors).
-New invisible AIBlock object that blocks non-combat pathfinding checks (behind windows, etc).
-Fixed waypoint detection along the wall while south of doorways (all doorways are waypoints).
-Empty bottles are now throwable like stones, vases, and plates (glass now deals less damage).
-Properly fixed priority of world editor item selection (items on tables vs. in containers).

-Shop window now displays merchant respect at top.
-Fixed minor flaw in obstacle avoidance function.

Added smokes into BRIGAND - NIGHTMARE DLC thanks to Quadrajet's scripts. Also fixed a problem with skeleton arms attacking, where they were testing collision between people's legs and missing the crotch entirely. Final update of all time.
