Hello Everyone, I've got some exciting updates to share with you today! On a technical level, the biggest news is the [b]unification of all campaign logic[/b]. Before this update, there was a distinction between how custom campaigns and normal campaigns worked. They are now the same. You can even open the default campaign in the campaign editor to see how it was made. In addition to this, I’ve improved the look of [b]water and winter effects[/b] and enhanced how height works to make custom and official campaign maps more beautiful.

[/i] I've also greatly improved unit variety by introducing mixed weapons for a lot of units. For example, militia units now come equipped with melee weapons, bucklers, shields, and other equipment alongside their polearms. This creates a more realistic representation of a 13th-century medieval formation while maintaining their original battlefield functionality.

I know you’ve been asking for this! You can now raise a multiplier to increase formation sizes. Note that there is a technical limit of 5000 units—exceeding this will cause units to stand in place. [b]WARNING: I DON'T OFFER SUPPORT FOR CUSTOM BATTLE SIZES. PERFORMANCE AND CRASHES CAN BE EXPECTED AT LARGE BATTLE SIZES.[/b] [b]All options are below and should be added to the game.ini located in:[/b] C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local\FormationSystem\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\game.ini [code][/Script/FormationSystem.FMConfig] BattleSizePercentage=1.0 CavalryHealthMultiplier=1.0 CavalryDamageMultiplier=1.0 RangedDamageMultiplier=1.0 GlobalSpeedMultiplier=1.0 GlobalHealthMultiplier=1.0 MinUnitScale=0.96 MaxUnitScale=1.04 MinHorseScale=1.03 MaxHorseScale=1.05 LordUnitScale=1.05 WaterInfantrySpeedModifier=0.6 WaterCavalrySpeedModifier=0.5 AntiCavalryRearChance=0.7 AntiCavalryRearThreshold=2.0 AntiCavalryArrowDamageBonus=1.5 AntiCavalryArrowHorseRearChance=0.75 LadderDamageMultiplier=999999.0 EnemyDuelAcceptChanceEquals=0.35 EnemyDuelAcceptChanceUnequal=0.18 ArmySpawnDistance=23000.0 ArmySpawnDistanceSiege=19000.0 BattleWinMargin=0.1 BattleWinMarginSiegeAttacker=0.3 ReinforcementSpawnTime=80.0 ReinforcementSpawnTimeModifier=40.0[/code] Finally, the [b]campaign editor[/b] has received significant upgrades and will continue to be improved as needed for official campaigns.
