Oriental Empires версия от 22.12.2021

Happy Christmas everybody. This update includes improvements to the AI, opening the soldiers.xml file for modding and a few bug fixes and minor improvements.

Opened soldier.sxml file for modding. Included example in Example Mod.
Tweaks to AI to improve unit diversity, and handle allocation of existing units more flexibly.
[*}Fixed bug where sometimes AI would surround city but not attack. Also should be fewer leader only stacks running around.
Fixed unit replenishment indicator not showing.
Fixed bug with some 3K events.
Overlord stacks can now move through vassal stacks even in vassal's territory.

UI
Made various changes to system for arranging units within a stack to make it work more reliably and intuitively. Fixed several bugs in the system too.
Double clicking settlement list tabs cycles through various sorting modes. Foundation turn, alphabetical and population size.
Fixed leader display showing battles won as battles fought
Fixed leaders losing count of battles when taken prisoner
Fixed bug that could make stacks unselectable after splitting

Diplomacy
Reduce enemy information offer spam at start of scenarios
Stooped enemy accepting cheap peace immediately after attacking
Fixed bug that sometimes lead AI to accept an offer when it meant to counter offer.
Fixed some other small bugs in diplomacy system that sometimes prevented AI from assembling a counter offer.

Multiplayer
Random faction selection now works with scenarios in multiplayer

Three Kingdoms
Tweaked Three Kingdoms script to nerf Nanman and boost Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu

Misc
Fixed freeze bug when creating a vassal without a peace treaty

New Features
Enabled Royal Court for Time of Mongols and Warring States campaigns for players with Three Kingdoms DLC
Added Alt T key to turn off trade route display
Added Alt D key to turn of border display (for better screenshots)
Added NoCivilians Attribute to scenario rules to allow scenarios to be created which don't allow settlers.

Bug Fixes
Fixed Lu Bu Achievement and reduced number of kills required to 1000
Fixed overlord asking vassal to attack factions they're not allowed to attack
Fixed freeze that occurs sometimes when two factions assault the same settlement
Fixed royal mother conferring authority after she's dead
Fixed prisoners sponsoring ladies for marriage
Fixed some issues with marriage / concubine candidates being created who are too old or too closely related to groom
Fixed marriage candidates being given mothers who are too young
Fixed screen not being updated for newly added characters if no concubine/wife is selected

AI
Improved AI's economic balance between buildings and army
AI will keep a minimum army size
Improved unit diversity in AI recruitment
Improved AI movement of armies
AI can build naval units

Custom Games
Added ability to set starting era in custom games. All the tech from previous era's is available, and some edicts are already issued.
Ability to have random AI controlled factions. The player still controls whichever faction he selects.
Multiplayer
Added ability to assign factions randomly in MP. All players, including the host, are assigned a faction at random.
Added hidden humans ability in MP. If this is selected, then the UI is adjusted so that no indication is given of which factions are human and which AI controlled. Diplomacy with AI factions has a delay, and functions the same as with human players. Random factions must be selected by the host in the initial faction selection screen for the hidden humans option to be available.
Diplomacy
Reduced offensive alliance diplomatic spam. AI won't ask for alliances against those enemies it can't reach
Can't declare war on vassals if you have a peace accord or fraternal harmony pact with their overlord
Less 1 coin diplomacy
Fixed a serious bug that was stopping inter AI diplomacy working correctly.

Misc
Reduced effectiveness of land troops against naval. Previous fix accidentally doubled it :(.
Fixed a bug that stopped naval units moving adjacent to large land stacks
Buildings can't be deleted if existing or queued building depends on them
Fixed issue with city list not being scrolled correctly in city list view

Added ability to use scenarios and maps from Steam Workshop
Added ability to share maps and scenarios from Steam Workshop
User created and workshop maps can be used in multiplayer
Localized map editor
Fixed bug that allowed more factions than was reasonable on user generated maps. This fixes areas of unusable farmland.

Hi everyone, this update begins the roll out of support for user generated content, by adding a map editor tool built into the game. You can use the maps you create instead of randomly generated ones in custom games, and they also be used in scenarios you create yourself. Please see the new Modding and Scenarios forum board for more details.

User Created Content Support
Added a map editor. Available from Options Menu
Added ability to load a particular map in a custom game. Can be one of the built in maps, or one created by the player.
Added ability to load a user created scenario

Bug Fixes
Fixed bug where stacks can incorrectly merge if both were ordered to a hex containing another stack
Fixed game settings tab not being available on systems with non supported system language
Added back button to game type selection screen
Fixed bug with caravansaries not exporting to settlements created before them
Stop re-exported goods being exported to their source
Improved algorithm for distributing starting positions in custom game

This is the first release of the map editor, so there are a couple of issues remaining. The editor is currently only in English, and custom maps aren't yet supported for multiplayer.

In the new year we'll add some support for modding, and probably a Steam Workshop.

Hi guys,

This small update took a little longer, but rest assured that further development is ongoing! This small update deals with some issues with the Warring States scenario, as well as a couple of other small fixes. We also added a little console for those who like to... experiment with the game.

Please let us know what you think and stay tuned for more.

Changelog:

UI
Added option to retain height when zooming to show something.
Defaults to on.
Camera position restored when exiting settlement view on the settlement it was opened for. Otherwise previous height retained if keep height option selected.
Added slider to adjust white fade level when zooming out.
Stack without orders is now selected if you use the eye button from the warning dialog.

Cheats
Added console for typing cheat commands. Open and close it with the backtick key (located below Esc on American keyboards). There's a drop down list of commands you can use, or you can type them directly. Type command + " ?" for usage information. Some of the commands work on the internal names for things (e.g. buildings), rather than the screen names, so you'll want to select them from the drop down list on the right. And no, they don't work in multiplayer :). I'm also afraid they haven't been localized.

Units
Fixed both bronze and silver level armor tribal horse archers being available together
Fixed name of NB Guard Spearmen
Fixed Militia Chu Ko Nu not being available if a first level armorer is present
Fixed some issues with herder dagger axemen and halberds

Misc
Fixed bug with naval combats causing game to crash
Herders can no longer research "Sword Making" tech as it gives them no benefits

A new update has just been made available. This update was mainly focused on improving combat, plus a few small issues that came up over the last couple of weeks. We would like to thank all of you for your feedback, especially regarding the combat mechanics and we want you to know that more improvements are on the horizon!

The full changelog can be found below. Please let us know what you think in the forums or comments.

Почему я не могу скачать игру Oriental Empires

Hello everyone,

After nearly a year in Early Access, we are finally here, it is release day! In a bit, the game will officially leave Early Access and the full version will become available. For our great community that helped us through Early Access, we just pushed the release build out to Steam, giving them access to all the goodness that comes with it. This includes better language support, full multiplayer functionalities and the Warring States scenario with new factions and some unique units!

We want to thank all of you guys who helped shaping the game during the final stages of development and we want to stress that the support of the game does not end here by any means! We will continue to support, update and expand Oriental Empires well after release.
