Dynamic Disaster [BETA for testing]
This is a beta version of the next update of Dynamic Disasters. Mainly for testing changes when they break currently running campaigns. Also, any third party disaster will need to be updated to work with this update.
NOTE THAT SWAPPING BETWEEN THIS AND THE STABLE MOD MAY BREAK RUNNING CAMPAIGNS. Also, this is for testing. Once we’re done testing this will be hidden until a new beta is needed again. If you don’t want to test, but to just play a normal campaign, use the other version.
Current changes vs the stable version:
- Internal cleanup and update of all disasters to remove legacy code and old, no longer needed, workarounds.
- Fixed lag spike on the turn the declare_war_to_all function is triggered.
- Fixed weird shroud glitches caused by reveal_regions not actually triggering reliably.
- Updated internal documentation.
- Rebalanced buffs for all disasters.
- Implemented disaster validation, to ensure disasters loaded at least will not break the mod if they error out due to missing data/functions.
- Implemented internal logic to mark disasters incompatible with others, so they don’t trigger at the same time.
- Implemented "Short Victory is Min Turn" feature for relevant disasters.
- Implemented "Long Victory is Min Turn" feature for relevant disasters.

- Generic Endgame for the Empire. Similar to other endgames.

- Skaven Incursions: Fixed a few bugs resulting in missing armies on disaster end.
