126) BUG: Castle & other buildings setup at beginning of scenarios

[unmerged(23737)]

Castle support cost

I'm not really sure if this is wad or not:
After upgrading for example hill fort to a small castle you have to pay for both support costs. This means -5%(hill fort -2%+small castle-3%)!
Is it Wad or a bug?

As per the logic of CK, this is WAD, as all effects are always cumulative...

Sorry, Cat, but must object...

If you already have a small castle at start, you only pay the 3%

so either part is a Bug

Improvements are supposed to be cumulative. I am pretty sure the problem come from the fact that the later scenario only gave "small castle" as pre-existing at start and not "hill fort" and "small castle".

So, OK, there is a bug, but then it is in the scenario set-up.

Mmh, the 1187 scenario seems to be correct (verified a couple of provinces randomly).

Tracid, could you report me the exact province where you can see a small castle with non-cumulative maintenance cost ?

Thanks,

Cat

Alright, Cat, we got us a 1337 setup problem. and not a small one, either

Can´t find a province that´s right, from the spot

 

[Darth Tracid]

1066 effected, as well, though with the few small castles, it shouldn´t be that bad...

 

[Cat Lord]

OK Tracid, effectively, I found the same errors.

It is definitely a setup problem in the scenarios.

I will report it to the appropriate team in charge in the beta forums.

Thanks a lot,

Cat

It should be noted that the same is the case for other building improvements such as different size churches as well. E.g. Byzantion and several other provinces start with Domed Churches and pay just Domed Church upkeep.

However, due since the Domed Church (or was it Large Church?) does not entirely overlap the green icon for a Church [1-2 pixels high green outline), it is actually possible to build a L1 Church in the same province later on, a bit of tricky to control, but 100% reproducible for the dextrous, which adds Church upkeep. (And nothing else, since the piety bonus seems to be broken BAH!)

 

[Cat Lord]

OK, thanks.
