According to the current plan, I want to upload the new version separately, and leave the old one as is - for normal people :)

No, you shouldn't switch to the dark side, Rince...:smile39:

But seriously, we're waiting:)

Wouldn't such changes depress ordinary players too much?:)

Eco, like Dandy, casually brought down the "ordinary enthusiasts")).

I strongly suspect that after 32767 turns, the weakening beam and the viper's poison may stop working, but I don't have the patience to check, and I'm too lazy to search the code. Maybe RoseCavalier can shed some light on this?

Just like Dundee casually took down the "ordinary enthusiasts"))

wyvern: HP reduction is not a spell, it is a separate entry that does not have a counter - just a % multiplier which is used each new round to calculate creature HP - so it does not wear off, except Cure.
(cre + 0x4A4)

weakening ray: similar, the decrease in defense is not read from the spell, it directly decreases creature defense - never wears off during battle
(cre + 0xCC)

(apologies, easier to explain without translator)

@Rince
In general, I'm trying to provide an "disable" option for most changes in SoD_SP. If there is a specific one missing, it can be organized.
In the future version (1.16), the map creator will be able to forcibly enable or disable some options.

@wenwell
You are right, I did not test Titan + Peasant vs. 2 Behemoths in Deeply Inundated Dungeon, the Peasant is removed in v1.06. Nice find though!

Haha, I predicted that something like this answer can be possible :D

I tested the earthquake bug in different scenarios and found a strange quirk. If Phoenixes are in the first stack and the bug kills them, after the attack on their "phantom" stack, they seem to revive and can move and act. However, the game crashes afterward (without HD, I didn't test with it).

I also tested this, but nothing crashed for me (HD+ with SoD_SP). You just need to kill the resurrected Phoenixes one more time, and then they won't revive.

And if you cast Berserk on a "bugged" stack of units, it revives them, although 20% of their health remains. This doesn't seem to work with other units.

Errm, what do you mean by that and what exactly are you talking about? I'm sorry, English is way more understandable for me than Google-translated Russian :)

in the end, Rosekavalier suggests finding another way to win... This is either tied to a specific item (which I no longer believe), or to a different sequence of actions. I'll have to keep testing).

well, then there's this option: https://imgur.com/a/9zUoNKt

I was thinking about it even in the first version of the map, but I didn't try to implement it because there were other options. The looping tactic is found quite quickly, but after that, everything becomes quite monotonous in terms of movement.

Or is this not the right option either?:)
