21G:
Fixed the layers being incorrect for pathfinding nodes (they are supposed to display the number of additional turns but somehow the layers got mixed up)
Fixed some typos in the tactical log text
Bat spawners can now be placed in the map editor
Bat corpses no longer flap their wings
Placing tiles with the map editor on display simple tiles now places new tiles with simple mode appearance, instead of running the normal tile rules.
Fixed placing a tile on the map editor causing map objects within two tiles to temporarily disappear
Fixed a couple of exceptions.
21F:
Fixed some oddities related to imp leader clothing and clothes being hidden during cockvore
Fixed a bug that prevented you from properly recruiting units from a village that is a mercenary race. Also another unexpected bug related to that.
Monsters set to the same team as players now update properly for the diplomacy system. If diplomacy is turned off, the game periodically checks to make sure all links are based on teams.
Fixed a rare potential bug where leaders of empires that don't exist could spawn.
Tiger special clothing now hides shoes if the feet are furry.
21E:
Fixed the new eyebrows appearing on many units where they shouldn't be due to an oversight.
Imp leader clothing is one again selectable.
Cat leaders now default to wearing their leader clothes
21D:
Lizards now have clothes that fit better. Note that adding an additional clothing item throws off the current outfit (well, only for rags or lizard peasants), I'm counteracting that for normal saves, but can't really address it for the saved customizations easily.
Monsters now flee significantly less often.
Some additional tactical log lines, including more variety for anal vore,
Fixed an exception if you created an empire that had no capital in the map editor and ran the AI for that empire.
Fixed up some miscellaneous exceptions
Went ahead and made it so if you manually dismiss a unit of a monster or mercenary race into an empty village it becomes the race of the village, instead of that only working for the mainline races. It's technically exploitable, but only player units will do it so it should be acceptible (besides, some people want to be able to use more of the monster or merc races).
Added bats race.
Editing allied or enemy units with the unit editor will now properly update the unit's auto-level up category based on their items (Units not controlled by an AI are unaffected, so that you don't accidentally counteract your own plans)
Races that use the shared pool of sprites (like cats, wolves, tigers), now have eyebrows
Can now view an allies full army if they have a larger max than you, instead of just showing up to your max from their army.
Can now hold shift in the strategic view to quickly show allies, enemies, neutral, and self
Finally found the bug that lead to units being in inaccessible places if only decorations blocked the path to them
Minor sprite fixes
21C:
Tweaked tactical generator a little to try to prevent isolated forces (it's supposed to but it seems to very rarely fail)
Some slight adjustments to some of the base model sprites
AI now more efficiently uses books that they find (can assign up to 50% of their army as spellcasters, depending on how many books they find), though they still don't actually purchase books, they just use the ones they get from hiring or from monsters.
Fixed the simple farms option showing normal farms as snow farms and vice versa. Also, they now take effect instantly, instead of sometimes needing to wait for the next time the map is refreshed
Fixed a bug in the pathfinder that could throw an exception when clicking on a neutral village.
Fixed the end of absorption scat messages using backwards logic (on when they shouldn't be, and off when they should)
21B:
There is now a relations hit for genocide (devouring 100% of a village that's not of your race)
If you take a village back that's the race of an ally or neutral party, you have the option of gifting it back to them for a relations boost. (Previously it would always give to allies, and didn't affect relations)
The amount of diplomatic reputation gained by attacking an enemy of an empire has increased, the amount lost by attacking an ally of an empire has increased. Relations also re-center faster than they did before.
New tier 3 spell, enlarge, increases stats and size by 20%
AI will now try to take control of empty villages instead of completely ignoring them, but at a low priority.
Village map generation spawning improved (buildings could sometimes leave unconnected tile islands the game still thought were okay and would spawn units there)
The strategic map now has softened edges between tiles. (there are still some work in progress places, but most of the auto-terrain works well together (ice and water is one example that still needs
The frequency of imp summons have been reduced
Fled leaders that arrive at a town will now auto-join the army at that location if it has space, or create a new army if they can, or only sit in the hireable list if neither of those is possible.
Player leaders will now be flagged as dead (allowing them to be resurrected) if the game somehow loses track of where they are (i.e. not in an army, village inventory, or in an invisible army fleeing to a village, (This was already true for AI Leaders))
Invisible fleeing units will now pick another village if the village they are heading towards is taken.
Fixed the AI ignoring gold mines with no owners due to a side effect of the diplomacy system
Improved support for reading special letter character types out of files, at least the common ones, like é
Additional scat related text has been added to the tactical log for if scat is enabled.
Fixed up a bug that allowed the AI to make a predator attempt and then cast a spell with the same movement points in some cases.
21A:
There is now snow fields and desert fields that show up around towns if the town was generated in that environment (also available for normal placing in the map editor)
Fix for eccentric body colors changing the color of the open mouth with the core race set.
Old savegames with a smaller number of max races,( i.e. before equines existed) now load correctly again (this also fixes the tutorial)
Made the failed tactical map situation (where it generates a map with just grass) extremely rare (it tries to generate a second time if the first one is declared unpathable)
Fixed Selicia swallow messages the rest of the way, so that they properly reflect the presence or absense of current occupants.
Fixed Voilins not having a strategic sprite which caused them to general several errors.
Attempted to fix a mac related bug.
Fixed a bug with trying to create games that had fog.
Fixed a bug with non-pred lamias, imps, goblins or pucas throwing exceptions
21:
Villages now have a happiness value, which affects population growth and tax income. Devouring from a village, or having it conquered by someone who isn't the original owner will lower happiness, but being returned to the original owner increases happiness. Village happiness will gradually otherwise work its way towards 100 for villages of your own race, and 80 for villages not of your race (this serves as a replacement for the 80% income villages of other races have always gotten, so that mechanic is replaced by a more noticible mechanic)
Added basic diplomacy functions. They can declare war, or try to make peace or alliances, or give gold. Enemies will only make peace or ally if they like you enough. Relations will also very slowly work their way towards an equilibrium value depending on whether they are enemies, neutral or allies. AI can declare peace / war / alliances on their own, but they don't cheat in terms of relations.
The auto-level up picker has been upgraded slightly, it allows you to view the settings for types, or create your own settings for a particular unit. (It tries to maintain the given ratios, i.e. if you have strength set to 4, and endurance set to 2, it will try to maintain a 4 to 2 ratio, i.e. if you have 50 strength it would aim for 25 endurance. The random nature of level ups means that it will vary a bit, but will try to correct itself). The custom type is stored individually for each unit that's using it.
Added a new terrain generator for strategic, which allows the customization of water, and uses more of the terrain types, there is still the option for the old generator if desired as well.
Tactical Terrain has been livened up (water and other things besides trees have been added), and a desert tileset has also been added. There's also a small snow tileset, that's still under construction but added in.
Now displays the shown health bar for pounce melee damage. Realized that the damage calculation that health bar was using was outdated, so it should now be more accurate if there are traits or buffs/debuffs involved. Also added shown health bars for damage spells, inclding area of effect ones.
Can now specify default names on a per-race basis. You'd put it in the directory the default names are in (UserData), and name it the name of the race as it appears in game, and the gender, so for example femaleCats.txt, or femaleDogs.txt, or maleLamia.txt . Monsters are slightly different because they don't use genders, as they're usually more generic and would just be Sharks.txt . Some monster races with more advanced naming schemes (like the wyvern that are often named by wing color) may overwrite the names though.
Added new special mercenary, Scorch.
Added the Collector monster race, they are paired with the Harvesters as their pets / beasts of burden. Also added the Voilin monster race.
Fixed leotards so they use the proper belly color
Tiger outfit now functions properly for males (they were using a second pair of pants that blocked their bellies), also made the outfit disappear if cock vore clothes hiding is on.
The subjugation pen is no more, you now always have the ability to recruit units from any village you own. It didn't really add much to the game, and was just kind of a obstacle to smooth play. (The adventurers and mercenaries were the breaking point, the fact that you could recruit mercenaries without the pen, but not adventurers may have made worked to maintain internal consistency, but really didn't make sense)
Turning off sound now disables spell sounds as well.
Fixed buildings no longer blocking movement after loading a tactical save
Race lists are now sorted alphabetically in create tactical and the unit editor, as that seems almost necessary with 38 races.
Some new village building graphics
Fixed a bug where AI could still recruit an army if an allied army was in their town.
Now displays what items were received from a battle (it's always just books at this point unless an army is dragging around items in its item stock)
Reworked the queued strategic move system a little more. Now they will stop before engaging any hostile or army, even if it is their destination, unless they were ordered to that square during the current turn.
Fixed some various minor UI issues
Succubi now only have the succubus sword item locked, any other slots are available for use.
Adding or removing the prey trait on a unit with the unit editor will now convert the unit to or from a predator. (Using it during battle on a predator will free all of the living prey)
Fixed Lamia balls being in an incorrect place (A side effect from the fix that I put in 20C), also fixed up their tail pattern being messed up under certain circumstances.
Can now click on prey of prey to view their info card, rather than having to go one step at a time.
Fixed a bug where the empty stomach Selicia messages wouldn't occur because the prey was already inside when the message was generated.
