Badok’s Utilities
A collection of various utilities. You can freely pick from the mod’s features thanks to a configuration event that will show up at the start of each game.
Please ping me on Discord or on the Steam page of this mod with requests for QoL stuff you’d like to see in the game. If I deem them viable, I’ll implement them in this mod.
All players get access to a number of new strategic spells, allowing them to bring a location to other players’ attention. Use sparingly and warn in voice chat first, as this could be used as a tool for griefing due to camera movement.
– Global ping – will work on ALL players;
– Enemy ping – will work on all players the caster is at war with (e.g. for declaring attacks)
– Friendly ping – will work on all players in alliance or defensive pact with the caster
– Discreet friendly ping – as above, but without a visual effect (for stealthy war coordination)
This functionality is disabled for single player games.
This functionality adds a number of spells that create markers on the world map. They come in two varieties – public pins will be globally visible to all players, while private pins are visible only to the caster and truesight. Important note about private pins – due to implementation details they must provide vision on their hex, so could potentially be used as a scouting tool – for this reason all players are also given tools to remove pins, no matter who owns them. Please don’t abuse this too much.
This section will contain additional game settings (like income/price modifiers of various resources, handicaps/bonuses for specific players, etc.). Currently you can:
– Change map reveal settings at the start of the game. With this you can reveal additional area around each player’s capital or uncover the entire map for all players.
– Set global income modifiers separately for all resources, to have more control on game pacing than base realm settings allow. You can modify each resource from -80% up to +400%
– Set per-player income modifiers to allow taking handicaps
– Tunnel terraformation – adds an optional spell that makes an underground tunnel province habitable
