Title: Horse speed bonus
Post by: Knute on October 22, 2011, 10:12:59 pm
I was moving at 24m per minute with a bunch of troops, sold them and bought 2 rouncey.

Now I have 1 troop, no trade goods, 2 rouncey and I'm moving at 32.175m per minute on plains.  Should be more like 43m per minute right?


- added horse speedup - if you have more horsies than goods and troops, you get a speed buff:
 sumpter horse *1.3, every other horse * 1.8
 ------------------------------------------

edit:  I now have more goods than horses but still moving 32.175 on plains.  I have 1 troop, 2 rouncey and 23 goods.

then it seems like it's a bug.
At fifteen, I had the will to  learn ; at thirty, I could stand ; at forty, I had no  doubts ; at fifty, I understood the heavenly Bidding ;  at sixty, my ears were opened ; at seventy, I could  do as my heart lusted without trespassing from the  square....

How did you sell your troops?  Or did you transfer them?

I transfered them to another player for cRPG gold.  It's a good time to be in the Bartering Brigade, business is booming.  :)

I'm at 60 meters per min with the sumpter with 1 troop.

In fact that make sense, a sumpter is better for transporting goods and long trip than a horse made for war.
Don't know if it was intended...

I thanks my sumpter, bandits like Brd could not raid my caravan anymore, i'm wondering if i will make a fast track into their lands just for the lulz (I'm not an official merchant in their eyes, i will spy!)

I'll try to keep a list of the changes in here so people don't have to search it from all around. Also, I'll unsticky it when I'm adding something, because no on reads stickies.

- changed upkeep formula
STRATEGUS_WAGE changed from 2.5 to 1.8
$wage = (pow(troops, 1.03) * STRATEGUS_WAGE - 100)/24

- added horse speedup - if you have more horsies than goods and troops, you get a speed buff:
 sumpter horse *1.3,
 every other horse * 1.8

- removed gingerpussy

- changed AI visiting fee from 5 to 1

it was not.

If all your band ride a horse the multiplier should be at least *5. You go really faster on horse. Try it IRL ;)

Actually no. Horses tire faster than humans, so for long marches humans are faster. But for the QUICK march, on the other hand!

Sorry to necro the thread, but is there a penalty for going over 1000 or 2000 troops that negates speed bonus? With under 1000 I was able to get the maximum bonus with more horses than crates, but currently I have 2000 troops with no crates and around 6000 horses, yet I'm moving at 24 meters a minute.

24 is still very fast, but yes, the more troops the slower you go after a certain point.  That's a mechanic in Warband SP.

The horse bonus multiplier remains the same BUT each troops have a virtual weight that decreases the base speed you have. So even with 1 horse per goods/troops (whichever is higher) you will be slower at 10000 troops than at 9000, than at 8000, etc... down to only 1 troop and 1 horse where you will go as fast as possible INGAME.
