Welcome, lords and ladies of KINGDOMS!
Today is new Friday and new fixes are coming! Before you'll look at fixes list I would like to comment few things. In the last update I've changed max wall size to 500m and some player find out that their walls are disappeared. to solve the problem I made "was wall size" customizable - now it can be changed in game settings. Careful though - big walls still have significant affect on performance, so use this carefully!
As I mentioned before in one of updates announcements - my plan is to finish war mechanics by adding them to Friday's fixes. So here we go - alongside with numerous fixes for sieges new important and very useful thing was added - banners for soldiers. Now player can see enemies on the battlefield more clearly. I decided to play with perks here a bit too - there are 3 tiers for banners to display and it depends on commanding perks.
1) No perks - no banners or "enemy-ally" color icon are visible;
2)"Recruit" - only banner is visible;
3)"Sergeant" - banner and color icon are visible. Icon marks allies with green and enemies with red;
The full list of changes follows. And again - thank you all for reporting bugs - this is really important for development of Kingdoms, and I really appreciate that! Now, have a nice play!

PATREON

IMPORTANT
1) Please, feel free to use built-in bug reporter (F11) - it will help development a lot.
2) If something is broken make sure you have verified game files and started new world, remember -KINGDOMS is still EA, I try to make saves compatibility for every new version of the game, but can't guarantee it all the time.
3) The game is still in development, it's NOT finished product, updates are coming 3-4 times a week and that will inevitably cause various issues. Updates for game in development and for finished game - are two absolutely different things, remember that. Game mechanics come and gone, bugs are being fixed and new ones appear all the time. Its a normal thing for development process. If you want to experience KINGDOMS as it was initially designed - smooth, without bugs and full of working mechanics - please, wait till final version will be out.
4) You can support development of KINGDOMS on my official Patreon page.
Thanks for your support, see you very soon!
