Thanks. Meanwhile, I've fixed the English version using "Witcher Citadel" (15 characters long).
Ket, do you have any idea when the next NH release is expected?

Looking at the download stats, it seems Eador250c has been downloaded 489 times.
I wish these players would come and discuss the game here...

Hello! I just registered in the forum to make your wish come true!

I've been playing Eador Genesis a few years now and New Horizons Mod is exactly what it needed!

I want to ask about the Casino Castle building,
It says that adds 1% to income but the actual number seems more like 5%

I recall a New Horizons version that had 5% in Casino's Text

IIRC, right now it is a flat 5 gold income increase. Maybe Boon has more info.

@Boon
Follow up from a bug report http://eador.com/B2/viewtopic.php?p=261748#261748
"Summoned" is missing an "ed"



BTW, well done to use "Aim!" instead of "Sniper Shot". Succinct and fits the battle atmosphere nicely.

It is always nice to meet new players


It's slightly more complex... building the Gaming House has two effects:

1) increase income by 1%
2) create the Casino site

And the Casino site has 3 effects:

1) increase gold income by 5
2) increase gem income by 0
3) generate event 1677 with 20% chance

Regards.

I don't monitor the Russian bugs forum anymore. I see that you and Zerachiell have posted bug reports there. Are these for the 2.50c translation? If so, could you summarize them here, or post links to them?

I will fix the "Summoned" issue. As for the "Aim!" translation, it wasn't me! I'll look into it.

I will soon post 2.50d (based on Russian v15.0427) with the latest translation fixes.
Note that the next NH release is right around the corner (Russian version due within 2-3 weeks max)

Regards.

Yes, bug reports in Russian thread are based on 2.50c translation. However, I strongly suspected game-related bugs so I posted directly in the "game-bug" thread


Lets get you up to speed then . Worth mentioning:

1.) Issue: Magic tower quest to bring back spell scroll "xyz" seems to accept only spell scrolls dropped after site exploration. If I purchase spell scroll xyz from a spell store instead, spell scroll is not recognized by the game as valid quest item.
Will be fixed in the next version of the mod according to Jazz http://eador.com/B2/viewtopic.php?p=255840#255840

2.) Crash-prone: Soultrap unit casting spells. http://eador.com/B2/viewtopic.php?p=259777#259777
Crash chance seems to substantially increase when playing overlord difficulty. Speculation: may be related to hp fix for summons introduced after issue http://eador.com/B2/viewtopic.php?p=227057#227057

3.) Casting limit: Problem with auto combat F11, exploit potential http://eador.com/B2/viewtopic.php?p=261544#261544

4.) Most likely game issue - racial magic (Dwarven, Alkari, ...) and unique creature spells as quest items for spell quests http://eador.com/B2/viewtopic.php?p=261724#261724

5.) Potential issue to look into: misinterpretation "increases by .... is meant as ... increases to" http://eador.com/B2/viewtopic.php?p=261748#261748

A few minor fixes you may want to add:

1.) Scout camp description: You may wish to change unit name to "Night Shadow". And "guard" is a bit misleading since that building does not unlock any kind of province guard



2.) Curse effect: "tile"? I guess "curse" fits better



3.) Singular vs plural For some unknown reason one site says "Dragon", the other site "Dragons". However, each site contains only one dragon. A bit confusing
Saved game for testing: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hkdde0cmz7sa2qa/Dragons.7z?dl=0



4.) Province guard "Celestial squadron"
Description needs information that army cannot guard a swamp province. Already preexisting issue in the Russian release?

5.) Driller building seems to reduce gold 50%, not gems. Not sure if it was already broken in the Russian release. Comparison before/after site was added below.





Thanks for the update. Leaving now for Xmas trip. Merry Xmas to you all. Looking forward to 2016

I discussed this issue with Ket. As far as I can tell, the translation is correct:

Level n in Summoning Power increases the level of summoned creatures by n/2 for undead, 2n for demons, n for other types.
If other skills or items increase the level of summoned creatures, the effects are supposed to add up.

Changed
"An enemy struck by this unit is affected by a curse, reducing its strength, armor and resistance by 1. The tile is active for 4 turns. The enemy's resistance can reduce its duration."
to
"When a unit is hit, a curse is unleashed, reducing strength, armor and resistance by 1 for several turns. Resistance reduces the duration of the curse."

Right. The Russian version is:

94. Небесная эскадрилья
#Большая армия Детей Небес, возглавляемых Менторами и Воспрявшими, поклялась стоять на страже мира и покоя Вашей провинции и никогда не изменит раз данному слову. Благодаря объединению разумов Небесная эскадрилья действует подобно единому организму. Любой появившийся в пределах охраняемой территории шпион врага будет обнаружен и уничтожен, а неприятельское войско - сокрушено и обращено в бегство.
Увеличивает обзор территории вокруг провинции.
Неустрашимые. Неподкупные.
Увеличивает настроение в землях алкари на 1.#

Translation is OK. My mistake. I just didn't realize how the skill summoning power is calculated in combat. Everything is alright. Anyway, thank you for hard work.

This one's a bona fide translation bug. Fixed now.
The building's properties are 6,-50,0 and 19,-2,0 i.e. change gold income by -50% and change mood by -2
Same problem with Temple of the Seekers.

I've made one last minor update to the 2.50 branch in order to fix the translation issues reported by BK over the past 4 months:

New Horizons English translation v2.50d
Changes between 2.50c and 2.50d

(I will also update the first post, and the subject of the thread)

The next release v2.60a (for which I'll create a new thread) will be based on Russian version 15.1231

I have a question about Barbarians I just can't seem to be able to get.

Is Diplomacy now a MUST-HAVE prerequisite to peacefully incorporate the Barbarian Tribes from a Human province? Does (negative) Karma yield anything in that direction?

Hello Surgeon,

Do you mean that your hero moves to a "Barbarian Tribes" province type, defended by "Barbarians" (typically 2/3 Barbarian units and a Shaman) and you are trying to win the province peacefully through diplomacy? (Just trying to understand the situation.)

Dialog when entering such a province is


I think the conditions for successful negotiations are hard-coded, not exposed in var files. (Ket, do you confirm?)

I have updated the HTML tables for version 2.50d (which is based on v15.0427.f03)
http://eador.online.fr/en/

What's new:
Document defender, ritual, site abilities.
Write header vertically to fit more information horizontally

TODO:
Documenting building abilities.

As always, I'm open to comments and suggestions

Regards.

Referring to Eadoropedia for previous version,
conditions:
19 > Karma > -19
Power of your army > Power of barbarians

Thanks Kzinch for bringing my attention to encounter.var


I don't think these conditions have changed in a looong time, they were the same in v13.0421

Regards.
