Warmonger said: These are not 'alternatives'. Original large dwellings come from vanilla game, before Conflux was added. Small 2-hex dwellings are directly related to Conflux area, others can't spawn. No idea about Unicorn Glade, though - maybe campaign or discarded object?
Maybe I don't quite understand what you're saying, but all of these objects does in fact spawn in random maps in HotA as alternative versions of the same dwellings. I do understand when you're saying that there were elemental dwellings before Conflux, and that the 2-hex ones is from when Conflux were added in the AB expansion.

Object value for neutral Dragon dwellings:
Faerie Dragon 19580
Rust Dragon 26433
Crystal Dragon 39338
Azure Dragon 78845
If neutral zones in your maps do not reach these values, they will never spawn such dwelling. Hint: stock template values go up to 30K max.
Yeah, thats the problem crystal and azure aren't possible and I've never encountered Farie or Rust on G map (coz of bad luck I guess). I would like an algorythm better depending on map size. Would be also okay a hard coded cap like limited to 1 each every map but guaranteed. What do you think?

The algorithm does not depend on map size and will never do. It's template-based. If you want bigger treasures, choose different template - like Marathon, Clash of Dragons or Coldshadow's Fantasy.

Quote: [+] Hit by a missile animation has been introduced for Monks, Zealots, Titans, Liches
on sentry towers, Beholders and Evil Eyes
So, I think these new hit effects are a cool addition that I like, and the hit effects also seem to match the creature/projectile quite nicely in general.
However, and now I'm probably just asking what might be obvious, but will the Monk/Zealot get their own unique hit effect, too? It seems that they're currently using the exact same hit effect of the Titan which seems just a bit too recycled/too much the same - to me. I do realize that the two projectiles could be seen as quite similar, true, but I still feel that a visual separation would do some good.
It did of course cross my mind that the hit effect for the Monk/Zealot is just a temporarily placeholder which looks fine, and if so, I can understand that, naturally. I'm just checking.

I see that some Locations can be scripted into another location.
A good example of this is the map 'the challenge'. There is a minotaurs labyrinth in the rightbottom corner on the upper world. This 'maze' functions as a portal though.
Is there an option to use this myself when editing maps?
And another question. Hoe exactly does the hero specialisation works on creatures?
I have Drakkon the Gnoll specialist here. He is lvl 25 with an attack skill of 35.
The gnolls have a total of 43 attack skill now.....

Fairly simple, the Gnolls have 4 attack themselves, get +35 attack (to 39) from Drakon's own attack, then another +4 because of Drakon's speciality (5% increase per level of the hero after level 1). I'd guess Drakon's defence is also 35?

Bully for the HotA crew!
Elaborate additions all around.
Raider Picket and Experimantal Shop add diversity and mitigate the Angel/Wyvern/Firebird army collection.
Couldn't the reintroduction of the Pirate Cavern to random maps diversify this even further?
I'm not sure at the moment, was it just severely bad luck or aren't Basilisk Spits and Ivory Towers generated as of 1.3.5?

Possibly, in view that there isn't yet an animation for Mages/Arch Mages.

Yep. Just found that bug again. Strange that it returns. Change the victory condition manually in the editor. It should be 80 days

Just want to quickly report a bug: It seems Blood Obelisk and Cages of Warlords are mixed up in the map editor. If you customize and Fortress and build one, you get the other.

No. There is a limit for a number of conservatories when they turn from gameplay forming element to useless decorative object. That limit is almost exceeded (if not already). So, no more additions there.

They are not generated since 1.3.0
Quote: Yup, unfortunately error still pops out.
There should be a crashlog (can't remember exact location - either in root dir or in Maps folder)

Thx for reporting. Seems like a bug) (although we DO have a bug thread )
Quote: Shrine of magic mistery (Spell level 4) guarded only by hoard of gnolls? Isn't that a little to less for a level 4 spell?
Depends on a template. If weak guards are specified inside zone - it's quite normal (for example Jebus Cross starting resps). But weak zone guards are quite rare on conventional templates. Also overall modifier matters (that you specify before generation)
