Short summary of your issue
Mass ransom blocked by prisonners ineligible to paid ransom

Game Version
1.3.1 (open beta)

What OS are you playing on?
Windows

What platform are you using?
Steam

Do you have mods enabled?
No

Have you tried verifying your game files (Steam only)?
Yes

How much "pain" is this causing you?
1

Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
I have 41 prisonners, I can ransom some of them individually, but the "Mass ransom" action is greyed out.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Start as any Norse character, raid away for a while.

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
In the savegame, Scule has his ransom refused, Natsluaig and Culdub are unlanded with no liege and no ransom to pay, that is what I call "being inneligible to paid ransom".

If I liberate or execute them, mass ransom becomes available for 1 prisonner, so the 4th in the original list, but then the next character is inneligible to paid ransom, so rince and repeat.

The action seems to count from the top of the list the number of consecutive characters for which the Ransom action will be accepted in return for money.

Any character for whom the liege will refuse ransom (not for lack of funds) or any character for whom the ransom is a Weak Hook (presumably unlanded characters with no liege and no money) interrupts the count.

If count = 0, the button is greyed out, and if count > 0, the mass action is only applied to the characters before the 1st non eligible one in the list (so it's not merely a problem with the button incorrectly updating, but with the action itself).

I have attached a save game
Yes

A workaround is filtering by Rulers only. Do the action. Most times it will get everyone.
Filter by Not Lowborn only. Do the action. Most times it will get everyone.

Hold on...

Are you telling me there's a filter on the Prisoners menu ?

Ahhh, that legit made me laugh. I imagined a voice and a facial expression and everything.

Only thing I find missing from the prisoner screen, other than this bug being fixed, is sorting by prowess.
 
I am flabbergasted. I don't exactly know what the word means, but I'm sure it's appropriate.

How many times have I found myself with 60 prisoners, but not wanting to execute the Norses in there, and having to...

man, I can't even...

Thank. You. I love you.
