    • The crafting experience and research points needed to unlock new parts gains received from the "Free Build" have been greatly reduced.

Every instance of said object can now be accessed with a new list at its corresponding type or its extensions, for example, use SiegeEngineTypes.All instead of DefaultSiegeEngineTypes.All. SiegeEngineTypes.All will include all of the Siege Engine Types in the object manager. Lists like DefaultSiegeEngineTypes.All were mostly hardcoded.
  • Skill effects are now registered to the object manager which means that SkillEffect.All now includes skill effects added by mods.
  • Modifying which basic volunteers a hero gives out can now be changed through a game model (VolunteerProductionModel). The only way to achieve that previously was by rewriting the RecruitmentCampaignBehavior.
  • Campaign event receivers are now moddable (modders can add their custom campaign event receivers through Campaign.AddCampaignEventReceiver).

Did TaleWorlds backtrack on their decision to nerf javelin throwers? If so, then good. I was genuinely worried that they'd follow through with what they have planned.

To those unfamiliar, they were thinking to reduce the melee weapon proficiencies of the Recruit, Skirmisher, Brigand and Wildling while also making the Throwing Spears a javelin replacement in non-captain modes. This would break a lot of things to the point where the faction balance would be screwed up even more than it already is.


Never mind, i saw the beta patch notes. I'm hoping that the nerfs to javelin infantry won't follow through because that's probably gonna worsen the faction balance overall.

Added 3 different icons for Devastate, Pillage and Show Mercy options.
The settlements do not need new icons, but a remedy for hunger and extinction: for more than half of the settlement dies from lack of food. Without plundering, wars and storming, settlements die on their own ...
Vlandia
  • [Pro] 5% more renown from battles. 15% more income while serving as a mercenary.
  • [Pro] 10% production bonus to villages that are bound to castles.
Wow! An unprecedented generosity for Vlandia! ???
It is still economically unprofitable to maintain garrisons in castles and cities. The settlements have only problems: with hunger, with loyalty, with safety. What's the point of building buildings that increase loyalty if loyalty drops automatically after 50 points?
I believe that before making changes to the blacksmithing from the beta version to the main version, it was necessary to first solve the problems with workshops and taxes. And without solving old problems, we get a bunch of new ones.
 
Great changelog, but I'm worried about multiplayer as usual. Since for several years of development, little attention has been paid to it in general. This time, both 1.6.0 and 1.6.1 are in for positive changes, I would like to see them every patch, or at least through the patch.

I am not a fan of the duel mode, but it is definitely a great mode and a useful tool for newbies and veterans. I don’t know how it comes out, but it seems that this mode was done by another team. It is very well designed and has great functionality, everything is done with attention to detail, there is almost everything that one could imagine and want to see in the duel mode. There are only group fights left, but I heard they will do too. I would like to see such an approach to the modes that we already have, as well as to newer ones, especially in the battle mode, if it appears at all.

Order UI still disappearing while enemies are fleeing?
Unfortunately, it does seem so in a first test☹️.
It means you still always have to order all troops to full-out attack before your infantry/archers broke the enemies moral, otherwise you are the only one hunting down fleeing enemies while the rest of your troops is busy celebrating?..

I'm afraid the reason why they wouldn't revert is is beyond my understanding... I hate it so much that I only played 2 battles on 1.5.10 beta and didn't even try 1.6.0. Not gonna do it until they fix it. No idea what they tried to do by disabling this ability. I don't get what was broken, what was it supposed to fix.
 
otherwise you are the only one hunting down fleeing enemies while the rest of your troops is busy celebrating?..

Be cautious while doing so. Yesterday I had a 1000 vs 1000 battle and enemy started retreating way earlier than I had expected so I couldn't order my guys to charge in time. Then I was like "meh, then I'll farm some XP on my own" but when I started chopping, they stopped retreating, regrouped and attacked me. Then they took position on a nearby hilltop and next 10 minutes, they just stood there ready to fight while my army was still celebrating. I couldn't resist further though and pressed tab eventually. Thank you Taleworlds.
 
Played today in two versions 1.6.0 and 1.6.1 beta: both versions do not save the names of weapons created at the forge. The same problem was a week ago back in the 1.6.0 beta version. While I'm downloading version 1.5.9.10 back, I want to ask the developers from TW: when will you start fixing bugs and problems on beta versions of the game before introducing new mechanics to the main version of the game !?
 
As of this patch I can no longer create a new party using a clanmember who is not in my party from the Clanmember menu. It says they are busy. I have to run all over the map to pick them up in my party first.
Is this a bug or a new feature?

My top annoying bugs during battles that need a fix for the sake of tactics and immersion.

1. Teleporting reinforcements into battle in larger battles, this needs to go. Find some other way. I do not want to use sci fi tactics in anticipation of where the enemy reinforcements are going to be teleported in.

2. Sieges being so bad, I often end them with Alt+F4 and go do something else. So many troops, so much to do and so little to no control. Why?

3. Loss of the UI after the enemy flee, I pay and feed and train them, I tell them when they should cheer!

4. Cheering monkeys, I expect disciplined troops, if I have troops that cheer, they will be court martial afterwards and kicked out of the Army

5. Banners man, give me banners so I can brag on the battlefield with my banners.

Sorry to Tag you, but Idk where to put this, some arts have been too small, one example is a Sigil of a Clan Prienicos, the clan in southern empire with a Spear and laurel wreath as symbol, being too small on the banner.

Another for me is a small icon on equipments and gears, and sometimes Smaller Icons on maps as well beside some clans Sigils
 
My top annoying bugs during battles that need a fix for the sake of tactics and immersion.

Funny you call it a bug (as almost all the players seeing this behavior change would)! This is a feature according to the devs.
