Corbeau posted:Does anyone - anyone - think indie zotz are a good thing to have in this game? Because I'm tempted to do cave province indies manually rather than risking another game setup without the no indie zotz mod. You could do this and make it the default option in a checkbox or something because indie bats are indeed really dumb.

More iterations, and I think that I'm 90% done with mountain and cave provinces. Might make small tweaks and need to make some cave-variation mountains, but other than that I think this version pleases me:

I was pythium in that game, I think it was my third game of dom4 I was having an awesome time. Then the harpies came and they were in too deep and destroyed me.

How about bright pink comic sans font that says "CAVE" Working on the theory that people are more inclined to like you if you display one fatal flaw and are otherwise perfect.

The maps are looking goddamn gorgeous but the busier they get the more I wonder how much that interferes with the ability to see your dudes, especially in mountainous and swamp provinces

A reasonable concern. Playtesting will tell. So far it hasn't been a problem. Mukip posted:I'm supposed to be doing a cave sprite but I wasn't happy with my previous attempts. I have an alternate idea that I'm going to try mocking up with my usual programmer art. If you still want to do sprites but want to do something else, would you be interested in doing Peliwyr-style houses? I've had an idea for how to implement farmlands so they're likely next.

Second farmlands take after the first completely failed (  ):  Still need to add more variation imo, including buildings. Also have been getting a bunch of bugs that I need to track down, because they have implications beyond farmlands.

Solved my aforementioned bug. It's frustrating when both a data entry function and the function that references it are wrong in the exact same way, meaning they work perfectly together... as long as nothing else needs to reference that data. Turns out farms needed to check that data.

OK, so when you station the same kind of commander as you start with in another faction's fort, it generates a site that allows recruitment of 3 of that faction's units, until they leave. Information-dense example image:  Really intended for Disciples games, although it occurs to me that if you enslaved, wished for, or charmed a commander it would also work.

Defacing Mukip's mountain sprite(s) as a step toward making cave provinces read as cave provinces at a glance: It's a bit crude on my part, but I think that I'll expand it to the rest of the mountain sprites that get spawned in a cave provinces.

Algorithm tweaks for mountain and desert provinces: Probably going to do some UI cleanup next. Waiting on house sprites and considering how to do desert rocks (if I do them at all). After that, well... it's nearly ready for a beta release.

So Mukip sent me some buildings today. Combined with some algorithm wizardry, we now have proper towns.   Color generation still needs tweaking (I'm not entirely pleased with the range it spits out yet), but I feel extremely pleased with the overall effect. Also implemented most of my little UI tweaks today, so we're nearing beta release. Probably later this week. For real this time.

Reduction in color options based on discussion:   Opinions? Right now blue only occurs in (some) coastal towns. Should it occur it all? Should there even be color variation? Maybe the red needs to go even if blue stays? Questions that need answering! Corbeau fucked around with this message at 06:28 on May 16, 2017 |

This is really good. Your progress is amazing, and I will definitely be using it once it's finished. Coastal towns being blue is nice, it's always helpful when you can recognize these things with one glance.

I too find myself unreasonably excited at the prospect of having better looking background images for a game I play for 30 minutes every month, keep up the good work.
