Warlordocracy Early v23.5

[p]Last patch before I start playtesting. You can now target objects with draw priority set to "bottom", so you can disarm traps, etc.[/p][p]Also updated a lot of dialogue with the body-building cult guru Mikus in Ch.2 and Ch.5, added another end-game slide for Feluco, added a merchant to Baskford in Ch.5, and tweaked some other dialogue.[/p][p]Gonna take a break from Warlord for three days and maybe work on a blog article. Then I will come back and start playtesting from the beginning.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Complete list of changes:[/p][p][/p][p]-Objects with draw priority set to "bottom" can now be targeted (set traps, puddles, etc.).[/p][p]-Easy Mode now has a confirm choice that warns about the Cheater flag.[/p][p]-Added Merchant to Low Baskford in Ch.5 who buys King's Petal.[/p][p]-New ending slide for the Luco Broken reputation.[/p][p]-Improved Ch.2 dialogue a little (mostly Mikus).[/p][p]-Improved Ch.5 maps and dialogue some more.[/p][p]-Updated all manuals.[/p]

Warlordocracy Early v23.4

[p]Greatly improved the Mechanics ability and also trap... mechanics. You can now craft bomb traps with 7 of the 8 kinds of throwing bombs using Mechanics at a workbench, along with flint and steel, and a steel spring. Set it on the ground and it will trigger when baddies walk over it.[/p][p]You can now also use the Mechanics ability on a set trap to disarm it (and with 8 Education you can recover it to use yourself). This includes tripwires, clamp traps, and bomb traps. Forgot to include caltrops but I will in the next patch.[/p][p]Also added a new achievement for when you get scammed. Back when I played Bruetal Legend before Jack Black sold out, I played the whole thing on the hardest difficulty, then the final boss fight was so hard I got frustrated and turned it down to easy. Then I got the "Groupie" achievement which was like a badge of shame, and it was hilarious. Wanted to make a badge of shame achievement for Warlord also, called "Absolute Mark", for when someone cheats you out of a ton of money.[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p][p]Complete list of changes:[/p][p][/p][p]-New items: 7 types of bomb traps.[/p][p]-Mechanics ability now lets you craft bomb traps.[/p][p]-Mechanics ability now lets you disarm set traps.[/p][p]-Setting traps now automatically sets them to player faction.[/p][p]-Non-igniting explosions and fires now have special scripts instead of alternate names.[/p][p]-New reputation in Ch.5: Luco Broken (much higher chance of going berserk in combat).[/p][p]-New reputation in Ch.2: Absolute Mark (get cheated like a complete mark).[/p][p]-Mikus is now alive and talking in Ch.5 (also improved his Ch.2 dialogue).[/p][p]-Improved Ch.5 maps and dialogue a bit.[/p]
