Warsim 0.8.1.3 (Defender Update, 118 features)
Hey everyone,
So this update is a special one and is almost entirely thanks to members of the Warsim community, chiefly Defender from Audiogames.net a community for blind or visually impaired gamers and one of Warsim's main longtime community strongholds. Defender had like many times in the past few years spent some time collecting a large list of bugs, errors, and suggestions from his playthroughs. The list was impressive and contained over 100 things and I've tried to clear through it all as best I can. Thanks Defender, and everyone who has helped make this game better!
SELF FIGHTING GOBLINS! (4 features)
After reading a bug report from Misery on steam mentioning some units hitting themselves instead of their opponents I found it hilarious, it's now a feature. Now the goblins of Uktak have a strange passtime! Self-fighting, who can beat themselves up for the longest?
* Added ability to watch goblin self-fights in Uktak village (credit Misery)
* Added self-fights, brawls where the fighters hit themselves instead of their opponents
* Added pre-fight text for goblin self fight in Uktak
* Added post-fight screen for self fight survivor
MORE NAMES LORD? (2 features)
Can't ever have too many possible character names right? I checked for duplicates using a tool and added 21 new ones based on welsh and english names from the Anglo-Saxon period.
* Added 21 new human names (Geot, Godulf, Clydog, Rhain, Triffyn, Clotri, Aergol, etc)
* Removed 9 duplicate human names
I SEE ASCII! (5 features)
Thanks for bringing these to my attention Defender! Warsim's Ascii-less text only version for visually impaired players is mostly fine but Defender's identified a few bits of ascii that appear to have snuck through the filter and thus will be read aloud by screenreading software and annoy the hell out of the people playing. All fixed now!
* Fixed ascii art for Goblinwood berserkers not filtered by ascii blocker (credit Defender)
* Fixed ascii art for viewing wilderman saaroth camp not filtered by ascii blocker (credit Defender)
* Added Gro'lok's stump names visible when ascii is disabled (credit Defender)
* Fixed ascii art for general's new helmet creation screen not filtered by ascii blocker (credit Defender)
* Fixed ascii art for minor goblin clans visible when ascii is disabled (credit Defender)
DISCOVERING BAIAA (3 features)
I'm not going to spoil things too much for those who haven't found it yet but upon being reported a few bugs from Baiaa I ended up reworking the discovery screens and expanding them a bit.
* Reworked text for discovering the Baiaa (credit Defender)
* Added new screen with sfx for knight placing flag in newly discovered Baiaa door (credit Defender)
* Fixed text bug in attacking Baiaa text (credit Defender)
BLACKMARKET CAPTURE IMPROVEMENTS (4 features)
Defender pointed out there's no immediate feedback when capturing the Blackmarket and defeating the guards, now there are a few new screens!
* Fixed being allowed into the Blackmarket when asking why you're not
* Added new screen for capturing Blackmarket initially (credit Defender)
* Added new visible indicator of bandit level drop from defeating the Blackmarket
* Added new screen for flag being raised over the Blackmarket with Sfx
ROCK JUMPING IMPROVED (5 features)

* Added notification for nomads losing a troop during a rock jumping match

VASSAL RECRUITS IMPROVEMENTS (2 features)
It was pointed out by Defender that this text was showing 'You are sent 0 troops by VassalName' now it's been improved a bit.
* Added new text if vassal only sends a single unit
* Added new text if vassal cannot send any troops instead of just showing normal text with you are sent 0 troops (credit Defender)
MORE SOUND EFFECTS (5 features)
Can never have too many sound effects in game, now more areas that were devoid of sound have it!
* Added burning and screaming sounds to burning Rihhm Village down in a raid (credit Defender)
* Added burning and screaming sounds to burning Smallhaven Village down in a raid (credit Defender)
* Added sound effect to recruiting troops from Rihhm village (credit Defender)
