How do you change the position of your hotbar abilities? I've noticed some characters have them out of order.

E: Figured it out; instead of dragging you uncheck and recheck abilities in the desired order.

I'd like it if the Quirks your characters gain after a mission actually had something to do with how the mission played out instead of being totally random.

What's really annoying is totally blitzing a dungeon, everyone full health, low stress, tons of treasure

and you still end up with negative quirks. one final 'gently caress you'

If they take out stunlocking, they need to tweak the annoyance enemies - wretches, courtiers - to have way lower accuracy or something. I'm already disinclined to run warrens missions, just because I don't really want to work around having characters getting Syphilis, the Runs, Coughing, etc, because of one dickhead (who always goes first) spamming its one attack until killed.

My bad, that was a typo. Supposed to read 'stunhealing'

..the point the other people are making is that you shouldn't get in a position where stunhealing becomes a thing you need to do. You made some sort of mistake earlier, either with party composition or how you handled the fights, but the game doesn't require you to do that to excel.
Those people can take their point and stuff it

Suicide farming is just as much an exploit but you don't see any arguments over it

Suicide farming is an exploit that fits the themes the game is going for. Life is cheap and you (the player) are a bastard sending men and women to their deaths at the hands of horrors they weren't prepared for.
Your lv0 recruits should straight up say "no gently caress off" and refuse to embark without at least 4 food, maybe 2-4 torches

I've never once had Battlefield Medicine fail on me, but it should definitely be a partywide effect. Along with a few other things to justify her inclusion in the party.

Classbased doesn't seem to work if that's the case.

Quirkbased doesn't sound very helpful either.

If a hellion uses the 'gently caress the gods' ability in camp or whatever, it says - stress to them, +stress to others. Does that count for other hellions?
Yes, everyone including nonreligious classes for some reason.

Cool idea: rework stress relief so that instead of it just being dump X guy in the bar or cloister for a week adventurers get a cut of the profit and will spend it at their own discretion on stress relief; you have no direct control outside of dungeons
Sounds like it'd be a decent option. Maybe have them learn skills on their own too.

Something to make adventurers more distinct from each other, less carbon copies... quirks doesn't seem like enough.

The Terror and Madness trailer showed a map with twisting corridors. Can we expect to see that in the future or was that phased out? That trailer also seems to have an older Crusader and a male Vestal.
