Hi, sorry if I took this to serious. It is a sure thing that not everything can be implemented, but that is normal if brainstorming is going on. That not each idea can be implemented is no probleem, but I had in mind the RPG elements wastelander thought about for the game, were some things could still fit in. But no problem, i think I got soulkeepers post a bit wrong.

I miss your balloon army too, sobs.


Also yeah I noticed the weirdness with champions too, not sure if it's the same thing your talking about, but it seems like maybe damage calculations have really high random thresholds or something, because I've seen several times where a champion with nearly 200 or more points will be killed by one with less than 100.
I get that if the lower powered guys had no chance, then you would never get the interesting toppling of a 10 time winner thing, but right now it's nearly impossible to get 3 wins against fighters that are half the power of your guy, which is just... weird.


Also, I know the lizzardfolk bard is taking a while, it's just that it's kind of hard to find enough similar hissing sounds when your working with free stuff, but don't worry, I haven't forgotten about it.

2017-06-11 12:39:06

@Niklas, the sound text thing is a good suggestion, I suppose if someone prefers that they can disable sounds in the game

@Hadi.gsf, I'll have a read, dropped £70 ($100) on greenlight hoping I had a chance but It seems not, would be a dream come true to get it on steam though, worked on it for free for over two years sad

@Niklas, in regards to some of the crafty stuff I won't be doing that in this game, however the plan eventually is to have a sort of two in one game, one as an rpg and one as a kingdom ruling game, you can start off as a peasant who works his way to being king, in this case the crafting stuff would be very relevant when you are at the lower level

@Soulkeeper, hahaha! and glad to hear it, I love these forums cause you guys are really friendly, come up with the best suggestions and are ridiculously active! smile

in regards to the champions, it's something i've ignored for a while and need to rework soon I think, the code for the arena is an absolute shit-show that shouldn't function, I know there's an issue with grand champions where either I've made the game to variable or good grand champions aren't surviving for no clear reason among other things, also village champion fights and bugged.

@Dr Bilbo, I have huge plans for combat being fleshed out, it's very primitive atm but will be reworked in the future and will be vastly different

@Defender, yeah I need to review the code, used to have grand champions that would be around for 30 years at a time, now they barely survive a turn or two no matter who they are

And no worries, excited for the lizard stuff haha!

hi,

I just downloaded the game but have no idea where to start.

I could not find a read me file with any instructions, can I get a tutorial anywhere?

2017-06-12 00:56:59

Hay wastelander, I just downloaded the new update, and, while the mono h-bit wavs take me bacl to gaiming on windows 3.11, might you also provide a high-quolity pack with the better music/sounds, or can you not program warsim to use mp3s or something?

As for getting started, I think their is an ingame wiki in the game itself under extras.

2017-06-12 01:30:50

Hi, just messaging to make you aware of a bug I've found with the western mine. Whenever I attempt to prospect, I am told I can only do so once per turn, even if the turn has only just started.

Prier practice and preparation prevents piss poor performance!

2017-06-12 10:49:49

@Dranelement, fixed and you've been credited! smile will be in next update

@theblacknoises, Well there were tons of complaints about the filesizes so I reduced it by a third smile

@Shrike, Happy to give you any advice if there's anything you're stuck on and I'm sure most of $the other users of the forum would also be able to pitch in smile

@wastelander maybe you could provide both versions, a low quality one and a high quality one in regards to sounds and Music and such. This way anyone could use the version he or she likes. I personaly would prefer the high quality version as well.

2017-06-12 21:24:12

@Niklas, could do, but I tried to maintain that with the wastes before and it was so hard to update two version of a game file multiple times a week, it made things take so much longer

As it stands once I'm done coding a version, I drag the files into my dropbox zip, then post the changelogs here, On steam, Upload it to Itch.io, Post to rougetemple forums, bay12 forums, update IndieDB page with a new article and a new download, update the warsim roguebasin page, update the roguebasin new releases page, post it on reddit, update the file on gamejolt, upload the new changelog on gamejolt, write a new article on the official warsim website and post on the official warsm discord forum.

It's such an effort haha smile

Omg the waste is back?

Why do ghost hunters have to hunt ghosts? Well, there's a fear of being ghosted out there. They may need therapy as well as their ghost hunting kit.

2017-06-13 10:04:43

@Mata, no I was just explaining the process of releasing warsim and saying that I used to release two versions of the wastes before and it was hard work

Hi, Thanks! Sorry to say I've got another one for you, though.
In what seems to be a terrifying mimicry of real life, when I enter the black market slums, typing 0 will not allow me to exit, and I am stuck there until I exit the game.

Prier practice and preparation prevents piss poor performance!

Hi all.
I have a few ideas.
I thaught that you can have an option to disable ascii completely.
I know there is an option, but there are stil a few symbols in the game.
I thaught that you could make an installer for the game as I don't know how to unzip the game.

Hopefully, we'll get a fully accessible open world game someday.

2017-06-29 14:03:39

@wastelander: Thank you very much for this gigantic update and Keep up the great work. Will it even be possible to buy the payed Version of the game from you directly or another place if you don't have steam? I don't have it, but I am interested in buying the payed Version in the future as well. Is this possible?

2017-06-29 16:34:57

I'm excited for you! I love the game. I won't be able to get the discount as I'm in portugal until the 10th and steam is being annoying, but will definitely order as soon as I return home.

2017-06-29 18:31:51

steam release yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. one more game added to steam that  visually impaired can also play.
@Wastelander
I have one complaint about one of the game's element.
spoilers below, for anyone who would like to discover things themselves:
So last time i played, there was this man that flipped a coin and if you won, he'd gave you 1 milion gold and if u lost, you'd die. I found it  very lame because i could just save my game and load it again, to flip the coin successfully and win the game. I thought maybe this suff should not be included for the sake of   getting steam achievements and such!...just some thoughts.

brilliant release, nice new changes, and best of luck for warsim on steam!

Grats on getting it on to Steam man, now the joy will be spread to all corners of the globe.
Is there any chance we could have the final link for the final free update?
Nvm that lol. Just read back in previous posts. But again, congrats.

2017-06-29 23:34:51

Holy crap man this is going very well! keep up!

I see what you did with those new name titles, Wastelander.
Anyway, nice work, as ever. smile
All hale the RNG!

Go, balloons. I don't see anything happening. Go, balloons. Go, balloons. Go, balloons. Stand by, confetti. Keep coming, balloons. More balloons. Bring them. Balloons, balloons, balloons! More balloons. Tons of them. Bring them down. Let them all come. No confetti. No confetti yet. No confetti. All right. Go, balloons.

Hello Wastelander. I'd love to contribute sounds to this game, which I think will improve the experience now that you're releasing to Steam. Even if you don't want sounds in the main release, is there any way you can tweak the output code of the game so that users can set their own sounds for events? I'm picturing a section in settings where it lets you add a regular expression pattern, such as:

^([0-9-+]+) public opinion\.$

This would then prompt you for a file to play, wherein the argument could be "%1.xyz" to play a file name matching a wildcard from the regular expression field. Alternatively, of course, you could just provide a file name, rather than a wildcard.

An alternative to this would be to create a sounds.ini file into which all these parameters could be written. The game would then load those options into itself upon load, and the only setting you'd need in the game is sounds on/off.

I'm sure you'll be able to think of other ways to incorporate it, but I'd love to see such a feature added if you do decide that you don't need sounds for the main version of this game.

In the Steam Edition:

your scribe pulls out the scroll of evil policies and prepares to make          
amendments to it.
1)  Declare 'Pillaging'
2)  Declare A Curfew (More Arrests)
3)  Declare A 'Breathing Tax' l
4)  End the walking tax
5)  Declare Aslona a free kingdom (will automatically free all slaves)
0) Exit

Option 4 and 5 give me the same message:

you have declared a walking tax, everyone who walks will have to pay you rents
[-10 public opinion]

Hi guys thanks for all the comments

@Niklas, you can get it from Itch.io directly! https://huw2k8.itch.io/warsim Thanks smile

@Dranelement, thank you dranelement, I hope you enjoy the new updates

@Hadi.gsf, It's a good thought but to be fair I like idea of it, and if someone wants to save scum to get it then that's fine by me because there are cheats available in the game, I like the idea of people being able to play how they want smile thanks for the comments on the release though, got lots of cool stuff coming!

@Dr Bilbo, thank you! hope you enjoy the final free update!

@Mata, thanks dude!

@Soul Keeper, glad someone got it wink thank you very much

@Xoren, Very smart, it's a way of having sound files modified without renaming them, I will note the idea down as it could definitely be included, also thanks for the bug report, I have fixed it and it will be included in the next update with your name as the credit for finding it smile
