Money

[Black John]

Just started the mod about two days ago, loved it after the first battle...massacare. So after changing battle tatics I began to win against the english as the scots. My one big snag is money. Im having a hard time grasping it.

So all the money in the treasury is actually the combined wealth of the lords? I can see how much they have but it doesnt seem to go down as i spend or am i just not noticing?

My only thought is that with the war in progress i am creating new troops are retraining when i can but i am not making that many units to over power the added income of acquired cities.

If someone would be so kind to enlighten me as to how the new money system works id appreciate it. not to be confused with economics of the game i get that portion.

Sounds like you might be using the BGR sub-mod. This generally is considered for experienced players. Read up on how it works HERE.
It adds a lot of immersion, but is also much more difficult.

yeah, BGR is pretty tough if you're new to it but it's real fun once you get the hang of it .... or turn it off. Up to you

BGR should be stickied in the main forum, these threads get created every other day.

IMO it's in its correct place in the submod forum. It's referenced in the submod manager, if people read what they're clicking. And instructions are given on how to get info on it. It's the only submod on there given this courtesy. It's a simple matter of reading something that people don't want to do because they're rushing to finish setup and geta game started.

Edit: Even if it was stickied on the mainpage, people would still install it without knowing what it is.

So true I gather that people tick random buttons on the setup and don't actually read the descriptions at all.

It's the first rule of internet forums. Any topic, when stickied, will become invisible to people who should read it.

I agree. Since its included in the main install of SS there should be a sticky of it on the main page.

By that logic, every submod included should be there too. There's no point in it, and BGR is stickied in submod forum and RR/RC has it's own subforum. None of this solves the problem of people not reading the SMM. Or the release thread. Or the FAQ. Or MSSC.

[k/t]

So instant permanent ban for anyone who doesn't read them?

[PerXX]

Yes!
Each Sticky should contain one part of a puzzle. Combined they should form a code that people should post in their signature. Anyone without the code will be banned!

[bɑne]

As such even the first few sentences of the release topic get skipped. Really only so much that can be done

[SirRobin]

There should be a "beware all who enter here" warning popping up when the checkbox to install BGR is ticked.

[k/t]

No, it should say "Virus detected", that way people actually pay attention to what they're doing and read up on what they're installing.
