Messing with rivers in FE Modding Elemental Forums

I was wondering if it is possible to change the ending types of a river. I see in the xml that they have a cliff ending and a beach ending, is there a way to have a plains ending for the river. I wouldn't mind just designing a small lake that the river flows into. Basically if the river ends on the plains the river changes from a cliff waterfall to a lake. Specifically I know that Heavenfall has a storm river mod, so I wonder if this is possible and what needs to happen to get thi

I liking the progress on the changes thus far. I would like some word about the floating waterfalls during map generation. If that is on the bug list or you are not going to fix this problem before release. Just would like some word on the matter.

Reply to How difficult is this game to learn? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

The tutorial won't tell you much about the entire game. It just shows you "currently" at least that you can settle a city, build buildings around you city, research things, explore the map, pick up goodies on the map, build outposts to capture resources, hire heroes, fight monsters. Also, a quest shows up, but it doesn't talk about it and you are not required to go on it yet. From my understanding the tutorial will receive some fixing in the upcoming weeks so it will change.</

Reply to [Suggestion] To deal with injuries. in FE Beta Elemental Forums

This would be somewhat AI friendly. As they build this in their capital city, when they get injured they are warped back there... they should have the probability of losing that injury as they recover and others (with the proper facilities). The idea is that the hospital or healing station be a place to heal your heroes. Obviously I would put this building mid-game or late game. It would be nice if the AI gets a little boon when it comes to healing injuries. I just thought

I think this game is great and I look forward to a more polished AI. I now have to carefully consider engagements from time to time as the outcomes are not always obvious anymore good job there. Can't wait to play the game with some of the tool that you have hidden and locked away.

[Suggestion] To deal with injuries. in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Would it be possible to build a building called hospital (you choose the appropriate town, fortress, conclave upgrade) where there is a 25% probability that 1 injury from a champion is removed or healed magically per turn. It could be a late game upgrade, and I know it is a new feature, so I not expecting this to happen. For those that mod I know we can build buildings and define traits. Would this be possible? I know they have a restoration potion out there to heal all injuries.

Reply to [BUG][.981]Floating water falls in FE Support Elemental Forums

The problem with this bug is that they need to add another end tile to the rivers for land endings, which they don't have (look at the xml for rivers and you can see it). They have beach endings and cliff endings, but not land endings. They need a lake tile and I would mod it in myself if I thought the game would see it, but right now I don't think it can. I think that adding the third river end would solve the redering problem here, but I can&#

So I fought some mites with 21 hit points (turn 2). That is 3 of them in a group so 7 hitpoints a peice. But I fought darklings shortly afterward and they had 3 hit points. The warrior had 5...
