Pompey Update (1.1) - New Version Out!

[Trin Tragula]

The Pompey Update Branch has now been updated on Steam and GOG.
It is available as a beta branch for the game that you have to opt into yourself on your chosen platform.

Among other things this update fixes the dreaded occupation bug, where sometimes enemy armies would take control of cities they should not be able to.

As before we are interested in your feedback on the changes in the patch and potential issues found.

Known Issues:

• Some localization is not ready in non-English languages
• Pirate fleets now acquire heavy ships over time, making them a bit more dangerous than intended. This is not intentional and will be fixed in future versions.

Note:
One of the changes in this patch is that the in game Console has been disabled by default. To enable it, launch the game using -debug_mode launch command.
Older saves will not be valid with 1.1.

Any interface mods made for a version other than 1.1 will most likely no longer work! Please turn them off before running the new version or you may have problems with missing text and missing functionality.

Is this the fix for instant desieging or something else?

That is what this is

@Trin Tragula , should we start new games or can the old saves still be played that were made with the first beta?

Should still work

@Trin Tragula I dont know what you've done but instead of nerfing the number of big ships pirates have, they have trippled now. Im glad you no longer capture them, but pirates have now three times the big type ships as before so you got some how the opposite effect of what you wanted. It forces you to constantly having to spend loads of money to refill your navie. Impossible if youre a small nation.

As it says in the first post it’s a known issue that Pirates now get heavy ships.
As per design they should only ever use light ships so this is a bug and will be fixed

With a new version out I am now locking this thread.
