    [bug/feature] When you buy a building "from a city" (i.e. at the start of the game), i.e. a building that was owned by nobody, it could be purchased for a normal price (same as construction price). On the other hand, when you try to buy a building which belonged to a wiped out dynasty, something breaks in price-setting mechanism and its price suddenly rises twice as high. It often leads to a weird state: there are unused buildings in a city, but player has to build his own ones outside the city, just because it doesn't cost as much (which is no good neither for player, nor for cities).



    This is because the used buildings for sale have a lot of materials in their inventories as well as multiple workers so the price is base price plus value of all items in stock.

    Thats why people capture mines and sell them again, because they usually have tons of gems and gold stocked up.

    - [idea] "Last member of the dynasty".
    Not sure why was it impossible to court such NPC in order to join assets... Of course, courting an NPC right after murdering his/her relatives should be VERY HARD - i.e. way harder than just a few bribes (taking into account that gold gets joined as well, thus you can gain bribery money back instantly). For example, it could require some expencive gifts, which won't be returned to the player after marriage.



    Well if your in a game of extinction and there is only one dynasty member left and you marry them, they become your dynasty and the other one is lost. I like the idea it wont let you marry them, I want to see them come back from near extinction, not just give in to your marrige request they should be trying to rebuild too survive their dynasty on.

    - [idea] Allied units reaction to attackers.
    ATM thugs, tramps and other armed hirelings use rather weird tactic to choose their target among enemies (guards, usually) attacking PCs. Sometimes they run far away even though there is an enemy nearby; sometimes they run away from PC while their primary goal is to protect PCs. It could be easily fixed. Any allied unit near attacked PC should complete a simple calculation: sum up distances between him and given target, and between PC and given target. Loop this over all possible targets; another (nested) loop over all PCs; and choose the target where this sum is minimal (so they attack closest targets, and always attempt to move towards nearest PC when no targets nearby).



    I hate how slow allies are to react to a fight. They draw their weapons slowly and not all at once, sometimes taking 3 seconds to join in. ALOT of times you dont even see their weapons drawn. I think some serious work needs to be done here as its glitchy and slow.

    - [bug] The game crashes. Period. Sometimes it crashes when you order your units to do something (attack, usually). Sometimes it crashes in the middle of nowhere: you don't click anything, just wait. Sometimes it crashes while loading a save - which usually means that given save is wasted (never going to be loaded). Rebooting the system doesn't help. And yea, I've got 4Gb of RAM and used /USERVA=2800 option in boot.ini. The only thing that helps atm is saving in several saves in cycle (I use 9 names saves + 4 quicksaves). Once certain save is wasted, you load previous one... and so on.



    My game used to crash ALL the time.
    - During saves
    - Loading games
    - At the end of the year when the screen goes black
    - Randonly throughout the game play

    IT HAS FIXED ALL CRASHES I HAVE NOT HAD ONE NOW IN 50+ hours of gameplay!!!


    As for perma pause on esc and gain believers I can confirm what Nirvana has said.

    Take church off AI and do gain believers it works fine

    when perma paused after hitting esc hit "alt" again then esc and it will unpause.

    I have probably logged 50 hours atleast of this game this past week.

    There are so many things broken still its a bit discouraging and I havnt been able to finish a game yet because the atmoshphere is so broken it's not worth it.

    AI is not buying any titles I don't care what anyone says, I have not seen it happen. AI doesn not go up the politics ladder as well as it should. It rarley does so. No new people can join politics in a town UNLESS there is an open business for them. So for example if you own every business in a town and kill the people currently in politics then there is no one left in town to apply. THey need one business to appear in town. I sold all my buildings and the town filled up with new shadow dynasties who went and applied to office.

    Towns grow way to fast

    AI Dynasties are not buying or building more then one building per AI active dynasty character. So if one dynasty has three people they build or buy one building for each person. Thats it, they never buy or build any more. Very boring

    Banks are still broken, I cant even get my guys to build stuff on auto. Forget about loans!

    Giving someone a pie should not fail because someone is busy. So frigging annoying. When you compliment or bribe them they stop their action and focus on you, not when you give them pies though!!!!

    Why can other people form multiple dynasties and even towns use my friggin fields. I sold my farm but not my fields. Not only did the guy who bought my farm use my fields but the friggin soverign from anther town ran all the way over to my town and started using one of my fields too!!! wth I burned them all down. No free wheat for you!

    Resitsting arrest is buggy still. Especially when your not allowed to kill the executioner who takes you to the dungeons from court. I had to attack a near by guard to unlock it and run away with my guy. Then I got caught again by the unkillable npc and just went to jail. I then attacked the jail and broke out only to be caught by guards again, who auto catch you if your close and they dragged me off again this is like 10 robber barons later who killed themselves trying to free me! Basically I had to have my guys attack the npcs to free me from a resist arrest. My character would only stop but not attack after a few seconds he turned around and starts walking for the dungeon again.

    How do you make ships out of storehouses every shore i try to build it on just says no harbors available.

    Can we get a 24 hour emergency room on hospitals? i hate waiting for the morning if a dynasty char isint in a hospital.

    Hospitals are still bugged the give medical attention icon just flashes on the workers sometimes and they freeze. Also if you have more then one person giving medical help and there is no one to treat they start GOSSIPING!!! wtf the lazy people, fine but when someone comes back in for treatment they dont help them... FIRED!!

    Can we make more society contributors with citizen titles or whatever that live in workers houses because seriously if you own all the businesses in a town there is NOBODY LIVING THERE they all dissapear. It's just your workers, unemployed, guards and beggars nobody else. Its wierd and lame. no one left to hold office. It's like you took over the city and fired everyone now they work for you but have no rights!

    I would love this.

    I think they should put a little up and down arrow that looks like the plus sign on your character when he has free points to spend. On the top right and bottom right corners of the businesses portrait in the scroll bar. So you can click up or down and arrange all your buildings in any order you want. I absolutley hate having them all in an unarranged manner. I have seen certain buildings move up on the scroll bar when built and I do not understand why nor does it solve my problem. At the very top of the scroll bar you can click the three icons to sort buildings by town, dwellings or businesses but that also is annoying and I do not care for it.

    40 rounds into anther game here. Playing Austria map the small town Danqueransant or something.

    Politics - Gaps are starting to appear in upper levels of politics. The same people in them from the start are dying and no one is filling offices.

    I owned the whole town and found that there was no npc's there if I did that. So I sold, Pastry shop, Inn, Estate Farm, Orchard and Mill. Once I did that a new citizen arrived in town and bought one each. They then went and applied for low level politics. I thought that was interesting. There needs to be a place of work for npc's to appear in town. Otherwise all you see is unemployed and beggars, not citizens.

    Titles - Nobody is buying titles above Citizen/Free Citizen. I see plenty of dynasties with assets larger than mine and titles much lower. I easly got Patrician by age 40 or so with under 200k assests. They have over and are Citizens.

    Purchases - I think its silly how yeoman shadow dynasties can by buildings requiring a "citizen" title (just one example)

    Make smarter AI's

    I had one color dynasty start in my town she bought a pub and for her entire life until 81 when i toad slimed her business to make her come out and kill her for her realestate she stayed in that pub serving people. 80 years old!!!! and her first time out of her pub was when i made her come out. Also she didnt do anything. Didnt buy anything, nothing BORING!!!
    You might want to check out the AI and the pub because it seems to me they get stuck in a loop of serving. Plus I dont know how AI's can make money off a pub, you cant really sell anything. Anther rogue in my game also has a pub but luckly has a thieves den too so I see him off kidnapping plenty, however he dosent leave the pub. I want to see AI's build lots of buildings and really expand. They are too minamilistic and small minded. Boring games!

    zZzZzZz I need real people to play against. I wish I had someone to play though!

    EDIT: byt he way there is a gravedigger stuck on a mountain. I watched him up there his whole life until he died.

    PS there was a gravedigger stuck in the river in antehr map I played.

    Might want to see why gravediggers are getting stuck places.

    Playing on a new map today with 4.17 and im 2 turns in. There is already 3 shadow dynasty carts spining along the road from my farms to the town. It caused my carts on auto manage to get caught with them until i manually moved them out. There has also been a guy stuck in the river since the start and its making an annoying crashing sound indefinetly. Its right next to my fish hut too so I get to hear it often.

    patch notes of 4.15 said

    - Worker don't disappear anymore or get stuck in woods or rivers
    - There should be no spinning carts anymore

    oh well, this is on Herzogenfurt Map by the way.

    - Legend

    Thought this was cool check it out.

    I'm on hansa map I have three fully upgraded vagabond camps.

    every day at 0400 when your carnies become player controled i set them out to three towns ( i have one camp near each city) I have them read the crystal ball in busy areas of each town. with three camps going and one mercenary camp collecting toll fees I make almost 100k cash a round. No need to buy any suppplies or anything just cold hard cash. I sit back and let them work while I do what I want and no micro managing except each day at 0400 placing them all but that takes 2 minutes.

    I hated using the dice game trick so this is a great way to make good money as a rogue. I did notice EVERYONE hates me for taking toll money but that accoutns for about 25% of my income its really great. Plus having level 6 mercenaries is never a bad thing when your in a pinch.

    I have never heard of anyone use vagabon camps so figured this slipped under the radar.

    if you have a lot of unusual crashes, then check the FAQ:

    Thank You good info.

    Been playing the last two days alot.

    Resolved my crashing while saving (before reading faq) by using quick save "Q"

    - TITLES
    Only ONE! color dynasty has bought a title of Patrician in about 20 rounds the rest are Citizen and Citizen without full rights (1 Year Rounds)
    Maybe it takes longer to make money, very possible.

    - HOSPITALS
    Still the AI is slow to upgrade these i have had one AI make one a town over so I always run there when i catch leprosy from door knobs in my smithy.

    - SUPPLY DEMAND
    I still dont see much going on a lot of items just not on the market after years of playing especially weapons and armor. I use the guild feature to get armor and weapons now. All business are covered in most cities just poor effeciency maybe.

    - Glitches

    Had 5 mercenaries try to atack a robber camp (second level) and they all got stuck in the corner of the building and froze (could not even unemploy them)

    - Mechanic Complaints

    Attacking people is still very clumbsy. Not everyone draws their weapon quickly. Some people fight with fists for a few seconds before pulling out weapons. Some people stand still while getting attacked. It's always hard pulling people off building attack and on to person attack because if you dont pull them all off and cancel action they will revert to building attack while getting killed

    Again when a finished product business goes to a supplier for raw goods it drops finished products off there then picks up goods. Forge drops daggers at lumber mill then takes pine wood to make more daggers. When it should sell them first then go to lumber mill.

    Overall Im pretty satisfied I like seeing cool things like people getting burns from proximity to bombs going off on buildings, small things. I would like to see the AI get much more aggresive though specifically rogue class and start building big robber camps while maruading the country side. Makes mercs kind of useless at the moment.

    I have played for about 20 hours now with 4.17b on steam but opened through the folder.

    The game is much nicer I love how dynasties are nastier and go after you its a lot of fun I couldnt believe my orchard was getting plundered 20 minutes in I was so happy.

    Huge problem I have

    Ever two years (1 year round) at the end of the round (change of season screen goes black then autosaves) it crashes without fail it always crashes every two years.

    What I do now is save when I hear the bell ding for year end however 1 in 3 saves I make NOT ONLY crashes my game it deletes the save file i was overwriting.


    Things I noticed

    - HOSPITAL - Sometimes healers in infirmary get stuck when told to treat people the icon flashes on them and they stutter but wont move. (I have to physcially place them in a spot near a bed then reapply)

    - INN - When on auto my dystasy character loves to sell beer as a inn owner (id rather him not but) He always gets stuck once he has beer in his inventory the game checks again to give him beer but hes full so it doesnt finish the process. He will stand still like the healers not moving with the sell beer icon flashing on his portrait

    - I HATE THIS BUG when my forge goes to my woodcutter to pick up charcoal it drops off daggers tools and fittings (whatever it had) then buys my own goods from me. I dont lose money unless its sales tax but still. It clutters up my inventory. (WHAT I HAVE DONE is told the woodcuter to sell stuff at market at 75% now it takes that crap the forge dropped off and sells it itself.

    - WIFE BUG I married a women from anther color dynasty and after years of marriage she reverted back to her orginal dynsaty stayed in my 3 char box as a playable char but could not be controlled. (work around - I divorced her gave her 2k and married somone half her age)

    Annoyance - I have the best set up ever in Cologne i have a forge next to the market a inn and a house all literally on the market so my handcarts dont even need to move to be seen by both business however when on auto they still move the cart. Annoyance is that my forge cart will go pick up 1 iron from the market then go back drop it off and repeat (i have money and space for more) this isint bad because of my proximity but if i was farther away this would really piss me off what gives?

    Black Death is not as bad as it is in 4.15 but i still had to make a hospital because the npc hospital the dynasty member who owns it has been stuck in the same position trying to heal for 40 years and not doing a thing. He also didnt hire help for the first 15 years. NPC hospitals are total fail. Now i have to treat all the black death.

    What does free trade do? I tried it my guy had beer in his inventory and it did nothing but make a tent for 5 minutes.


    Im sure there is more but thats my rant. Hope it helps.

    Im on a dell d630 (crap) but runs the game well win 7 newest drivers from component websites (not dell) over 20 hours played real time not game. Maybe 40 years played in game.
