Warlordocracy Demo v26
Big old list of updates. Still working on the pathfinding, but it's slightly improved. Main priority. I also really improved mouse selection priority, like how you select mobiles over items under their feet before anything else, and added some quests. I'm still not gonna develop past the first 10 maps (the demo maps) until I know everything is perfect.
Complete list of updates:
-Slightly improved pathfinding.
-Murag in Bandit Camp now gives one quest.

STORY FILES: (requires starting a new game)
-(PANAMA) Fixed problem in Panama Farms and changed "Metal Door" to "Sealed Metal Door" (now requires hacking).
Warlordocracy Demo v25
Redid the pathfinding a bit, improved mouse selection precision, added a Total Party Level stat in the Journal window for when you import your party into new stories (and there are limitations). The party limit is based on how many members you have, and their accumulated skills and abilities, as well as leftover karma points (skill points). Not sure if I should also include wealth and total inventory value in this as well. Added two new quests. Finished the Streetwise ability so you can summon the black market in town and gather info. Updated maps a bit. Lots of new script commands. Still need to work on the pathfinding.

Future Plans for Warlordocracy
I am still working on another couple of side-quests in the Warlordocracy demo and finalizing the class balance (gotta add in some bluff dialogue options, etc.). Then I'm gonna playtest through the demo with every class, then hopefully update on Fuck Napoleon III day, March 5th.
The demo is going to stay restricted to only 10 maps, so I'm done with the demo maps. I just need to make sure that the classes are balanced, finish some more dialogue and side-quests, and hopefully improve the pathfinding a lot more. Then I can keep working on the full version.
You can import your entire party and list of reputations into different stories with the script commands already, so I think the first full paid release will be the first four chapters. There will be a satisfying conclusion but obviously some loose ends. Then there will be a couple DLCs that add two more chapters each that you can import your party and reputations into. So there will probably be a total of 8 chapters before the party gets too overpowered. I have tons of story notes and an ultimate ending, and now I just need a way to conclude the base game in a satisfactory way before the optional expansions.
There, I made the outline of my outline. Time to get high.

Version 9.6
Malwarebytes helped me a while back, but now the problem is back. For now, just disable Ransomware protection on Malwarebytes while playing Brigand or your saves will be fucked. I'm talking to them again but it's gonna take a while.
Meanwhile, here is another update. Mainly, F4 now hides/shows the HUD. Included *.X versions of all models in the COMMUNITY DLC, because they are easier to work with than *.DBO files for modders. I also decreased value of 30-cal ammo to make sniper rifles more viable and increased the Tsunami Pulse Rifle damage.
SOURCE CODE:
-Fixed Steam starting options (removed Exclusive Mode and added Player's Manual, Builder's Manual, and these updates).
-Added new hotkey to hide/show screen HUD (F4).
SCRIPTS:
-Player now spawns behind oil platform in the final chapter to make it easier to hide from sniper (but not in NIGHTMARE).
-Silencing pistols now drains pistol ammo instead of replenishing it in all stories.
-Decreased price of Sniper ammo in all stories and stores from 50 to 40.
-Increased Tsunami P-Rifle damage in all stories from 8 to 10.
RESOURCES:
-(COMMUNITY) Added X versions of all models in the Extras/Stuff directory in case people want to edit them for mods.
Version 9.5
SOURCE CODE:
-Fixed mouse look speed on "smooth" framerate setting.
SCRIPTS:
-Fixed bug where Rolland would give you an objective in Chapter 6 to talk to Uncle Bob even though you already did it.
-Fixed bug where Gomez would have the wrong dialogue after moving to South of Pochutla.
-Fixed error message with poison and cursed weapons when you kill a target (it was only a pointless error message in the bottom window).
-Fixed hacking turret window with Brillo del Sol Apartments terminal, now says 35 instead of 50 required Software.
-(PANAMA) Removed useless functions on Dr. Lee's terminal in the Deep Canal.
