Siege weapon changes:
- CATAPULTS AND TREBUCHETS:
- New algorithm now used for Catapults/Trebuchet projectiles that properly takes into account starting power, gravity and firing angle of the siege weapon:
- Starting power determined by number of winches for catapult, and loaded amount for trebuchet – power directly relates to starting velocity (so 20 winches is 20m/s).
- Arc of the projectile is checked along it for any walls, floors, bridges or fences it hits, otherwise it will travel the full arc until it hits the ground.
- Anything within a small radius of the landing position will take damage, radius depends on the size of the thrown projectile.
- Weight, quality, and final velocity of the projectile all add into how much damage it deals to the things it lands on – metal and stone projectiles do the most damage.
- Projectiles still have a maximum of 20 damage per shot.
- Added new actions to catapults and trebuchets to allow changing of the firing angle.
- Firing angle defaults to 45 degrees, can be changed to be between 5 and 85 degrees.
- Added messages when winching and changing the firing angle of a catapult or trebuchet that will give an approximate firing distance of the projectile.
- Action time for winching now takes skill into account, will be 33% faster at 100 skill.
- Projectile landing messages now give a full breakdown of everything they hit, and how many of each thing – as well as naming which structure(s) received damage.
- BATTERING RAMS ADDED:
- Minimum 21 body strength to use it.
- Uses the War Machines skill for skill checks – action time is 33% faster at 100 skill with a base timer of 30 seconds.
- Checks a short area in front of the ram for anything to hit, first thing it hits will take damage. Area should be closely lined up with the model.
- Can only be used by one person at any time, user must be quite close to be able to use it.
- Damage dealt increased by the ram quality and the skill check result.
- Ram does double damage to walls underground.
- Citizen or ally with destroy wall permissions will deal bonus damage.
- Cannot be used on steep slopes.

- Turrets and archery towers will now shoot faster based on quality – up to 33% faster at 100ql.
- Turrets that fail to fire anything when they have a chance to will now do a firing animation without sending out a projectile.
- Changed the projectile starting positions of turrets and archery towers to line up with their models – This should allow them to fire from anywhere they have proper line of sight to a target.
- Added a 3x bonus to damage when bashing arched walls manually.
