[Stainless Steel 6.4] SS All Factions

[joerock22]

Is anyone else having trouble with the game, i.e. the campaign map moves very slowly and it freezes for a few seconds every time you try to move an army or agent? It seems like it got worse from turn 1. If it continues to get worse I won't be able to continue playing in this hotseat. Scouting is already taking me at least three times longer than it should, probably more.

Maybe there is a fix for this that I don't know about?

[zender9]

Is it just our hotseat campaign? I mean do you have the same problem with your other SS hotseats or single player campaign on SS ?

[joerock22]

No, it seems to be just this campaign.

Edit - it seems to work better on the Steam version as opposed to my old CD version. So I think I'm okay. Turn should be up sometime in the next 15 hours.

[saleska2]

I have not been experiencing any problems :O Ill see if I can find anything that might help ya.

[joerock22]

Extension please. Will get this done tomorrow.

Umm, I think I am missing half a stack at Rheims. Any pictures from BerryKnight?

Edit:Alright, did my own investigation and looks like BerryKnight broke some rules. One of his 2 starting spies still has 3 stars (which has 50% chance to infiltate in a fort with a default general inside)

and he didn't recruit a single spy in Paris, Rheims or Dijon on turn 1. (Turn 2 pics)

So it was impossible for him to take out any of my fort (2 spies 60% each required per fort).
Also, there was a second fort, which disappeared too. I believe it could be bribed, but who knows. Asked the admin to clarify the situation

[BerryKnight]

*Feeling a bit embarrassed*
I was too busy searching for a cool pony pic, that I forgot to post the odds... (I think?)
Anyways, here ~ http://imgur.com/a/z4ZbT ignore the last 2 pics. I'm surprised I still have these tbh, good thing I do though.
Apologies for the confusion, and bad form here on my part.

[Ramble12]

That's really weird. Why does Febre have 60% chance to infiltrate when he does not in a simulation? There is no chance he could get upgraded to 4 stars on turn 1. And he did not assuming he still has 3 stars on turn 3.
On your second infiltration pic he is not the selected spy, so the percentage is not his. I still want the admin to check the case.

[BerryKnight]

I understand what your saying. I tested it myself as well, and Febre only has a 50% in a regular test run. On turn 3, that 50 turned to 60% for me, which IS kinda weird.
Nonetheless, I've checked, and on my turn both spies have 60% to infiltrate. Admin can confirm it, as I need to retire for the night.

[saleska2]

Well from what I can see as England there are no spies in the HRE fort. How the hell he got the 60% I have no idea, ill test some stuff I guess.

EDIT: move seems to be legit, I easily reproduced it: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0By...TU5Q3ZDNUxjQ0U

I am gonna guess its because of homeland that spies get increased % of infiltration, ill ask Mith about it.

[Ramble12]

Oh, I see, this homeland stuff makes sense. A crappy feature, though

[General Dragon.]

Did you had any general in the settlement before? And if yes, did you moved him out? Generals can effect infiltration depending their security levels.

[Mithridate]

Saleska is correct, if you're the owner of the lands you're gonna perform an infiltration action you've got better odds.
Also applies to allies and allies themselves are very easy to infiltrate as they trust you not to stab them in the back^^

I am unsure what other agents and actions it applies to, assassins at least and likely priests n mercs but prolly not princesses.

[saleska2]

I actually think I like that feature, having a bit of an easier time to defend your own lands seems fair.

[Ramble12]

So the spies infiltration chance is multiplied by 1.2. Same multiplier applies to assassins and priests for converting the population. But what you mean by mercs?
Does this apply only to SS or vanilla too? I've never experienced this and am sad because of my inattention again

[Mithridate]

I do not think it's x1.2 but rather a flat +10% before multipliers are added to the total.
Mercs as in merchants^^ This is from vanilla so should be in all mods unless tweaked.

There is ALWAYS something to learn in this game, this is why its so interesting.
Never heard that before myself, never tried it out never would have guessed it is a feature. Impressed by it really.

[zender9]

I knew it works on assassinations but didn't know it also works on spies too.

[BerryKnight]

Always something new with this game... Just look at this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5j...NGd0V4S2M/view
A princess stealing an entire army. Who would have knew?
