The problem exists in both games. It occurs at the very beginning of the first turn before movement. As player 2, I could see beyond the 9 tile limit and view player 1's forces. Once movement began, the LOS dropped to 9 tiles and remained at that range. I unsuccessful attempted to fix this in V3 an...

Here's another look at the work in progress. It's a very slow process, directing the AI, and it often has to redo things several times to get it right. I've narrowed down the wolf and working on the goblin legs atm.

I've created a couple of challenges in Ancients to test V5. Here's link to the current build, if you want to try it out. The mod folder should be copied to both your campaign and multiplayer folders. I've gone to just using a single copy of the mod rather than SP and MP, since the files are identica...

Well, V4 proved worthless; it didn't even function as well as V2, which at least limited LOS properly after the first move. So, I took the question to Grok, dissatisfied with Claude's solutions so far, and this is what it recommended. Please completely replace your current ResetViewDistance function...

kronenblatt suggested I share background on the mod development, which might promote feedback from others, so here's what transpired in my discussion with Claude AI in preparing V4. I've slightly edited the transcript for easier reading and deleted a few AI command comments. The patch works in singl...

Unfortunately, V3 has not squashed the first turn bug. A test MP game I'm playing replicated the problem on turn 1. I will have another look at the alternative code I got and do some testing with that.

Here's another shot of the work in progress. With the free tier, I get about 20-30 minutes of AI-assisted modeling. You have to be very precise in directions, and even then, you often have to give follow-up directions to tweak the exact distances to shift elements you're working with to fit together...

Given the generally poor historical accounts of the Etruscans, does that mean you will be running away soon?

Low_LOS V3 is available now as an ingame download. This hopefully closes an occasionally appearing bug where LOS is not limited on the first turn. Please download this and use this mod for future new games your post. Remember you'll need to install two versions for Medieval as well. Do not delete V2...

Regular Karvon's Burgundians 1430 AD defeated Bagatrix1805 Libyans 549 BC 42 - 11. We initially deployed a heavy foot command in our center, a medium foot command of mixed crossbows and longbows on our left, and a smaller medium foot command on our right. Our knights and sergeants formed up in the r...

I've redone the warg using rectangles, so it looks less like a plushy toy. This is a very slow process and only able to do so much work in one session at the free tier.

I have updated both Medieval and Ancients to V3, incorporating the suggested fixes. Initial testing shows the mods are working, so nothing's been broken. As the bug is an occasional one, I guess we'll have to wait and see whether the patch actually has taken care of the issue or not. In any case, I'...

I checked the current script with a couple of AI, ChatGTP and Claude. Both of them pointed out potential issues. Claude corrected a suggested fix by ChatGTP, so I'm going with it. Here's what Claude reported: The Bug: IsAITurn() Returns Wrong Value on Turn 1 The problem is in the ResetViewDistance f...

1. Please make the huge white banner and the two large green morale % bars in the upper left much, much smaller. It takes up way too much screen real estate, and they are very distracting. I'd actually prefer an option to use the simple Ancients display and do away with the slider bars altogether. ...

Yeah, I'm thinking I may have it redrawn using rectangles as a base. It's a rather laberous process though, so I may wait to see how it turns out first.

Here's a look at the work in progress.

I have played about a dozen games of Medieval using Low LOS V2 and not had any problems so far, so clearly this isn't a common issue. Some of the screenshots I've seen are clearly not the whole board, but more than 9 squares. At 9 squares, you should be able to see from your most forward deployed li...
