Warsim 0.7.4.4 (Masks, Three-Headed Everything, New Reactions And Aardwolves)
So another quick burst update, the main drive of this update was to continue developing the reaction system and testing the throne room, but it spiralled into a bit of spring cleaning my old warsim to-do list, I cleared it down from 1200 things to 1000 by a mix of (adding stuff from the list, merging ideas that were similar, removing things that are now in the game etc) As a result there are some interesting new things as well as some ideas that were suggested a while ago but are now finally in.
**NEW MAJOR FEATURES**
The major new features here are that now, any races that are Masked, ie Masked Dwarves, Masked Goblins, Masked Demons, will not have visible faces but instead use masks from a pool of 72 million procedurally generated ones.
They look like this

* Added new system for masked races (now instead of their default faces, they get a mask from one of 72.6 million possible masks)
* Added dynamic system for the arena to be upgraded when not owned by you
* Added new encounter 'Mercenary company visit' (4 different kinds of visit)
* Added ability for mistreatment of merc company leader to get you banned from hiring them forever
* Added certain crimes result in higher relation change when fugutive of other kingdom is accepted/killed/arrested etc (ie killing the rulers pet, treason etc) (credit Defender)
* Added ability to skip some or all guest introductions in celebration ceremony (with chance of relation drop)
**NEW RACE TYPES**
With these four suffixes there are now 5872 new races that can be found in your world, the three headed idea was on my to do list from a suggestion by Bookrage from Audiogames.net, the recently updated system for two-headed races made it surprisingly easy to make a three-headed face work properly. After getting the three-headed system in I tested to see if it worked with masks and to my surprise it did, so now there are Two-headed and Three-headed races that wear masks
A three headed race
* Added new race suffix 'Three-Headed' (half population, three heads graphic, +50 battlescore) (credit Bookrage)
* Added new race suffix 'Stout' (much lower population, slightly stronger)
* Added new race suffix 'Three-Headed Masked' (half population, three heads graphic, Wears masks, +52 battlescore)
* Added new race suffix 'Two-Headed Masked' (two heads graphic, Wears masks, +12 battlescore)
**THRONE ROOM TWEAKS**
A couple of tweaks to things in the throne room!
* Added some no gold reactions significantly or slightly increase the odds of public opinion change
* Slightly increased the odds of public opinion loss for having no gold when agreeing to pay
* Merged knight questing reaction system
**SMALLER FEATURES**
Some smaller but still noteworthy features, a hilarious suggestion from /u/chronoligcal, when in the scorpion fighting pit now there's a small chance the 'scorpion' that comes out is actually a goblin in disguise. Now the goblinstone in Wildwood can be captured and colonised by savages (only if there are enough savages elsewhere). Free slaves is now do-able from the laws screen too and the whole free slaves process has had a little facelift, and you can generate masks in the extras menu because why not!
* Added chance that scorpion in scorp fighting pit is actually a goblin holding sharp claws (questionable scorpion) (credit u/Chronoligcal)
* Made goblinstone in wildwood colonisable by savages (rare)
* Added seperate introduction text to celebration from throne room (so the single use festival you pay for from entertainment is a little different from the one every x years you declared)
* Reworked screens for freeing slaves and slave soldiers (+new graphic)
* Added ability to free slaves in social laws screen too (credit 71)
* Added random mask generator to extras menu
**NEW SOUNDS**
Not a huge sound increase but a few little ones, I've got a big folder full of new sounds I plan to add to the game when I can, just trying to find the right places for them.
* Added new Ahem sound effect (now when used the game picks one at random)
* Added new Yeah sound effect
* Added new chain break sound effect to freeing slaves
**NEW REACTIONS**
As with the last update a good focus on expanding the reactions system, I want to ensure it really does feel fresh and different and that you couldn't predict what would happen, any suggestions for reactions in the throne room are always welcome!
* Added 'I shall find glory in your name' knight reaction to questing
* Added 'Sword be guided' knight reaction to questing
* Added 'sweet throne' no gold reaction
* Added 'sorry sigh' no gold reaction
* Added dynamic sigh no gold reaction
* Added 'angry at himself' no gold reaction
* Added 'Sell the story to the paper' no gold reaction
* Added 'unexpected' no gold reaction
* Added 'awkward' no gold reaction
* Added 'YEAH' Deep voice shout reaction to thank you
* Added 'Nervous humble man' reaction to thank you
* Added 'Exaggerated power' reaction to thank you
* Added 'Feinting man' reaction to thank you
**AARDWOLVES**
Aardwolves are in the game now, a small foxlike creature from africa, Aard being afrikaans for earth, so really they are earthwolves!
* Added New Race 'Aardwolf Folk'
* Added New Race 'Aardwolfmen'
* Added New Race 'Were-Aardwolfs'
* Added New Race 'Evolved Aardwolfs'
* Added New Race 'Half-Aardwolfs'
* Added New Race 'Shapeshifting Aardwolfs'
* Added New Race 'Aardwolflings'
* Added new kingdom type 'Aardwolfdom'
* Added new creature 'Aardwolf'
**BUGFIXES**
Not too many bugs this time around but I imagine there are still tons unfound!
* Fixed missing 'an' in intro for old ruined village in wildwood
* Fixed mercenary groups 4 and 5 not being accessible if the first merc groups land was taken
* Fixed celebration text grammar
* Fixed celebration commedian text colour bug
* Fixed jester introduction line break bug
* Fixed typo in sudden death encounter 'for instead of force'
* Fixed sudden death robbery reaction not giving correct name to the man
* Fixed one of the 6 laughing sound effects not working
**EVERYTHING ELSE**
* Made demonic dialogue text match exactly what the overlord voice actually says
* Reworded killing a guard independent refugee encounter text
* Increased cost of Demon Shield by 100k (credit Defender)
And that's it, let me know what you thought guys!
