Testing a Custom Legends Castle Editor

Hello Everyone!

I have been developing an AI Editor for Stronghold Legends.
The aim is to get as much liberty as possible over the design of an AI, making them more competent and fun to play against. I also hope that any user can have a smooth experience, while designing a dream castle!

This project is a recompiled and modified variant of the original Stronghold-Knights SH2 AI Editor, adapted for Legends.
Currently it knows a little bit more than its predecessor, with a few quality-of-life features added:

  • Working directory and save file history up to ten files.
  • Zoom in and out with the mouse wheel.

As the development's initial focus was to get a robust adaptation for a foolproof planning, the utility and its design in particular can still feel a lot 2005-ish. I have plans to upgrade the app with a lot more features and supply it a more up-to-date look and feel, with responsiveness in mind.

If you want to participate in testing, please message me on my profile!
Any remarks are also welcome under this post. 🙂

As an inspiration, see an excerpt of Mordred's slightly edited vanilla castle:

    • Trivia - Why Buildings Are Misplaced in the Shk Editor

      Behind the scenes In the original SHK Editor there is a weird quirk, when it comes to displaying buildings. Even not long after its release, people complained about the Engineer's Guild being off by one tile, when rotated east. Even though this itself is an easily fixable problem, delving into the buildings list reveals that almost every building has a whole slew of corrections applied on top. When adapting the Editor for the Legends buildings, all buildings got vastly different dimensions,

    • Introducing: the Stronghold Legends Ai Editor!

      Hello everyone! For some time now, @ Asophix has been working on refining and advancing the Stronghold Knights AI Castle Editor program, originally created to work with Stronghold 2. His intention is to create a program where the community can edit and create their own AI Castle Designs in Stronghold Legends. This is a truly historic moment and for the first time, you can now control aspects of Stronghold Legends which were previously never possible. The work far exceeds the orig

    • Pauses in an Ai Castle

      Stronghold Crusader for its time had a fun little Artificial Intelligence. Above all, that was - and still is - defined by a pre-defined castle template that varies per character. The AI tries to build a castle gradually, where each building has an order (1 being the first one, etc.), so the castle can be built starting with the essential buildings, with the less important ones added later. Some opponents build include a few pauses in their construction, allowing for a more gradual build-up
