Warlordocracy News

Just noticed the game will occasionally fuck up all AI, including party members, so that destinations constantly get reset. Don't know when or how this gets triggered. Will fix tonight, but the temporary solution is to open and close the world editor with F1. It should be an easy fix, but I gotta do something outside first.

Added a virtual keyboard for Steam Deck string input, abilities are now auto-sorted by required skill for modders who want to add their own abilities, all main stories are now listed first, you can now access manuals from the game menu. Tons of other little fixes from bug reports on Steam, itch, Twit, Reddit, and Discord. See below:

Warlordocracy Chapter 2 is up on Steam and itch. Probably still need to balance the difficulty, so I'll be doing that over the next couple weeks after some feedback. I'll fix any bug reports ASAP, of course.

Chapter 2 DLC is finished and will be released tomorrow (after I get back from my day job). Meanwhile, here's the latest patch. Lots of little fixes. Mainly it's got all the scripts for Ch.2 finished and tested.



Complete list of changes:

-Finished Chapter 2 Early Access (on Steam tomorrow)!
-Climbing ropes and vines now requires 30 Meta.

-Fixed bug from a few patches ago where fire and other effects weren't moving.
-Effect objects like fire are now automatically set to temporary (disappear after leaving map).
-R-Clicking usable items in inventory no longer changes equipment (changed "pickEquip" to "pickDefault" in item use scripts).
-Bottles of miscellaneous substances (boomdust, etc.) now have script that lets you pour it out for empty bottle.
-Made HUD updates for party member conditions more efficient.
-New gemcracks (no scripts yet): gemPyro, gemCryo, gemBio.

There is now a bandit who will tell the others to stand down in Tuskwood in Chapter 1 if you get to him, improved other dialogue and fixed a bunch of little shit. Chapter 2 DLC is still on track to release Monday, November 6th. Busting ass on side quest scripts until then.


Complete list of changes:

-Usable objects now run check scripts immediately after map load (light sources, etc.).
-Fixed script bug where Commander Ralo and Murag would drop papers for Ch.2 when killed in Ch.1.
-Attacking the bandit camp in Ch.1 now causes Murag to automatically flee with Favius (so the story won't break).

-Sounds and game messages no longer play if map isn't yet loaded (for respawn scripts, etc.).
-Time pass dialogue window no longer displays when you travel to new maps.
-Forges now produce light (like campfires and streetlights).
