📢 Multiplayer System Improvements - Public Beta Extended & Updated! ⚔️

[p][/p][h2]📢 Multiplayer System Improvements - Public Beta Now Live! ⚔️[/h2][p][/p][p]We have been testing Multiplayer System Improvements in a Public Beta over the last week. This has been successful in reducing lag/action delay, but we have decided to extend this Beta to September 4th, to test the further improvements brought to you in today's update.[/p][p][/p][p]A big thank you to everyone who has helped us to test these improvements to the Multiplayer System! Without your help we would not have been able to discover the causes of Resyncs that we have now been able to fix with this update.[/p][p][/p][p]The final day for the Beta Test will be the 4th September, with the improvements released to the full game shortly afterwards.[/p][p][/p][h2]The Improvements in this Update:[/h2][h3]- Fewer Resyncs, while still retaining the lower lag between clicking and seeing your action take affect[/h3][p][/p][p]In this update, your system will generate an "internal log" during Multiplayer Games. This can be found in the settings folder, and is simply called "internal". [/p][p]If you and other players experience significant resyncs during a Multiplayer game, it would be incredibly helpful if you could send these logs to us.[/p][p] Please try and coordinate to include some kind of common title, such as "Logs from x_TheRat_x game" when sending these, so that we can tell which game different logs from different players are from. The more of you that send your logs during a game, the higher chance we can identify the cause of resyncs.[/p][p][/p][h3]Where to send Internal Logs:[/h3]

[p]In the official Discord Server to the Internal Log Sharing Post [/p]
[p]If you don't want to use Discord, to support here - please ensure you include "Multiplayer Public Beta" in the ticket[/p]

[p]This is a temporary measure to aid testing. Internal Logs will be disabled when we update the full game with the contents of this Beta Test.[/p][p][/p][p]Please Note: Outside of this Beta (in the regular game) the "resync" popup only appears if a resync has occurred for x amount of time, to prevent it appearing for tiny micro resyncs. However, for the Beta, the "only appear after x time" functionality is disabled to make it easier to identify what is lag, and what is a resync.[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]How to Access the Beta:[/h2]

[p]Go to your Steam Library.[/p]
[p]Right-click on the game and select Properties.[/p]
[p]Under the Betas tab, select Public Beta from the dropdown menu.[/p]
[p]Steam will download the beta update, and then you’re ready to wage wars against your fellow Lords and Ladies![/p]

[p][/p][p]Please note: You will only be able to play with with other players also on the Public Beta version of the game. However, you can switch between the Beta and Regular versions of the game at any time, using the dropdown menu in the Steam properties tab.[/p][p][/p][h2]How to Share Your Feedback:[/h2][p]Your input is invaluable, and will help us to bring the best experience possible to Multiplayer Games! To let us know how you're finding the improvements, you can use the following methods:[/p]

[p]When you've had your fill of multiplayer games, please fill out this short Feedback Form. The data from this is vital and will inform further changes and improvements to the system: https://forms.gle/eFBJNdQzvPx3wy9K9[/p]
[p]You can additionally join our official Discord Server to discuss how you're finding the Beta with other players, and report any bugs or issues experienced in the Beta[/p]
[p]If you don't want to use Discord, you can report bugs to support here - please ensure you include "Multiplayer Public Beta" when writing this[/p]

[h2][/h2][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Additional Patch Content also present in the Beta[/h2][p]These will be released to the Base Game in a patch (alongside the Multiplayer Improvements) once we are confident that the Multiplayer Improvements aren't having any unintended negative effects.[/p][p][/p][h3]Changes:[/h3]

[p]Healers and Slaves now show no-attack symbol when targeting walls[/p]
[p]Increased Arabic Swordsmen damage against buildings/walls to the correct values[/p]
[p]Updated loading screen[/p]
[p]Some Localisation Updates[/p]
[p]Improved the Healer's animations when running and healing[/p]

[p][/p][h3]Fixes:[/h3]

[p]Fixed the cause of an issue causing big FPS drops and 'Rubberbanding Units', which would persist in the save file (This was caused by blocking a gatehouse with a stockpile)[/p]
[p]Fixes to some CPU Castles (Based on the issues listed in Evrey's Modded Stronghold Crusader AIVs)[/p]
[p]Fixed issue where Tunneler Troops would be visible and targetable aboveground when they should be in tunnels[/p]

Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition v1.04 Patch Notes

[p]Good morrow, my Liege! As more and more of you have been playing, sharing and cooperating, we’ve been toiling away on another wave of updates and changes that should address some of your main concerns as well as make the whole Crusader experience smoother. It takes more than one warrior to make an army, so too does each bug report help to collectively improve the game for all. Godspeed![/p][p][/p][p]- Update Size: 326MB - [/p][p][/p][h3]Additional Hotfix v1.043[/h3][p]"When moat can’t be placed due to high ground, the CPU Lords will now place killing pits instead (these will be free for the AI in this specific situation, so as not to cripple their economy)" functionality has been restored (it was disabled briefly in v1.042), with some tweaks. [/p][p]The CPU will now place these in a random pattern rather than a checkerboard, and the maximum amount that can be placed has been capped (limited to 250 in 8v8, up to 400 in 2v2). The rebuild rate has also been reduced.[/p][p][/p][h3]Additional Hotfix v1.041[/h3][p]We have identified and fixed a cause of a crash that was occasionally affecting players during any games with CPU opponents.[/p][p][/p][h3]KNOWN ISSUES
[/h3][p]MUTLIPLAYER: We are aware of the ongoing issues a portion of the playerbase are experiencing during Multiplayer, in relation to lag/placement delay, and resyncs. We are hoping to get further improvements to you in the next patch, and appreciate your patience while we work on this. Any multiplayer changes are a big risk so we need to make sure they are tested thoroughly before they reach players.[/p][p][/p][p]SAVES: We’ve made a potential fix and added additional logging to hopefully address some instances where people were not seeing saves when trying to load saved games - if you are still encountering missing saves, please send the player.log file that's in the settings folder to support here[/p][p]
[/p][h3]MAJOR ADDITIONS[/h3]

[p]You asked, we answered - Bedouin Troops can now be enabled in the Classic Trails! In the "Classic Trails" menu screen, at the bottom right, hit the "advanced options" button (the question mark) - there will be a checkbox to turn bedouin troops on/off.[/p]
[p]There is now a toggle to see ALL available Multiplayer Lobbies available globally, regardless of region. Use with caution, as joining lobbies far away from your own country could cause performance issues.[/p]
[p]On that note, we’ve added a country tag to the lobby list, so you can see the country of each lobby available
[/p]

[h3]ADDITIONS[/h3]

[p]Map names of Firefly Maps in the Multiplayer lobby are now translated to your own language (rather than the lobby host’s language)[/p]
[p]When moat can’t be placed due to high ground, the CPU Lords will now place killing pits instead (these will be free for the AI in this specific situation, so as not to cripple their economy) [/p]
[p]Autosave Options added to Co-Op Setup[/p]
[p]Added a frame around Small Mini-Map Borders for some visual flair[/p]
[p]Ally Shield Icons now appear on the Trail Skirmish screen mini-map[/p]

[p]Increased the building limit from 2k to 4k buildings. In Skirmish/Multiplayer, each player has a portion of the 4k for themselves based on the number of players. So in an 8 player game, each player can have up to 500 buildings, but in a 2 player game they can have 2000 buildings each.[/p]
[p]Troops can now pass through Shrubs, Bushes and Cacti (not trees!)[/p]
[p]The Lords have been resized to be suitably intimidating (and easier to spot)[/p]
[p]The gravestones of dead Arabic and Bedouin Lords, will now show a new illustration when clicked on (rather than a Christian cross)[/p]

[/p]

[p]Improvements to CPU logic over long distances[/p]
[p]Tweaks to the CPUs handling of buildings in dangerous areas', which should lessen the build/destroy loop they sometimes get stuck in[/p]

[p]Fixed Marketplace cost in Custom Scenarios (Free Markets for all!)[/p]
[p]The material collection count for achievements ‘Lord v. Food’, ‘Calm down, Rambo!’ and ‘No More Wood Needed’ was sometimes being carried over between games, this is now fixed[/p]

[p]Drunkards will no longer get stuck at the campfire after being built over
[/p]

[h3]CPU Lord Castle Fixes[/h3]

[p]Removed unnecessary Engineers Guild from the Nomad’s Castles[/p]
[p]The Emir was sometimes building an armourer instead of an armoury, this has now been fixed[/p]
[p]The Wolf would sometimes block off his Engineers guild and other buildings, and then destroy them. He will now build this Castle slightly differently to prevent this[/p]
[p]The Saladin will no longer build his armoury directly in front of one of his gatehouses, blocking entry/exit (what was he thinking?!)
[/p]

[h3]Mission Fixes[/h3]

[p]Fixes to Classic Trails Missions 11, 12, 21, 28, 45, 46, 47, 65 & 67[/p]
[p]Fixes to Crusader Extreme Trail Missions 5, 8, 17, 19 & 20[/p]

[p]Co-Op missions will now appear correctly in the Skirmish Masters Screen[/p]

[/p]

[/p]

[h3]Localisation Fixes[/h3]

[p]Updates to Simplified Chinese, French and Russian localisations[/p]
[p]German Localisation - fixed a speech/text mismatch for a line from the Saladin[/p]
[p]“Arabic”, “Arabian” and “Arab” should now be consistent across text and speech
[/p]

[h3]FEATURE IN PROGRESS [/h3][p]We’re working on implementing this into the game’s settings as an optional feature, but for now:[/p][p]- To disable the Sands of Time’s timer-based functionality: run the game, go into the Options menu and click "Open Settings Folder" and then exit the game. [/p][p]In the windows explorer window, open "settings.cfg" in a text editor (notepad for example) and find HideSoTTiming:False and change this to HideSoTTiming:True, and save it. Then when you run the game, Sands of Time will not show any timers or leaderboards.[/p][p]Please note: you will only see Multiplayer lobbies of other players on the exact same version of the game as you. People make sure you're on the latest version if you'd like to play Multiplayer.[/p][p][/p][h2]As always, thank you for playing Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition! [/h2]
