Cantos I've added the link to the repo, in case you want to use it

I've updated the names and descriptions, thank you so much by the way!

I heard that you have ended your activities as a modder on Vintage Story and are offering the mods.
It might be better to make this clearer by putting up a warning, or a “discontinued mod” banner, so that people are aware and might want to continue their mods.
Personally, I love your work on Vintage Story.

The idea as said is awesome in concept, likely the best and most accurate; but if you haven't some NPC that represents those citizens(or guards) you're basically "making it up" that they are there and exist, kinda like an immaginary friend.
I don't think that adding a random  number  of NPCs from Sabre au Clair tho is the definitive solution because they need to be proportionate  to the food rations you're giving at your stronghold  to maintain it.
Something like X food = X npcs, X+1 food = X+1 npcs (food needed is proportional to the number of npc and vice versa).
We don't even need a fancy A.I. for the NPCs either, they can be client side holograms for what it matter for  a simpler implementation, but they have to be there somehow to back it up the core concept of the whole thing.
Of course if they (or just some of them,  like 50% [additional guards]) also have a role in the defense system may be even better.

The idea behind using food as material is both realism and balance. You can't just make an unreachable fortress without a single parcel of farmland and still hope to be safe without a single member logged in and therefore not a single food consumed by players. Players have to maintain and protect large agricultural areas to maintain their stronghold. NPCs can be added using Sabre au Clair which is has some compatiblity features with this mod, but anyway, almost everyone part of a city or stronghold are / were non-fighters

Thanks for the suggestions

"They require high quantity of food to be kept active (up to 4 containers containing food can be placed around the flag)"

Lastelle

are the strongholds full of NPCs that maintain it? otherwise using food as resource to maintain them results to be almost silly; its members already provide for their food.
With some NPC guarding the strongold it would be  instead an awesome thing, other than a  pretty accurate one. And in that scenario, the more NPC you want to have the more food you must provide.
Otherwise other materials for maintenance should be considered as wood and stone as a simplier fix.
Or even more simple if the food requirement is disableable by the config.

btw for the siege mechanic;  even cooler would be if the siege must be triggered as a whole event when the invaders choose to commence.

Heya, after some multiplayer testing here a feedback:

-Peoples can't see the flag going up
-The flag go directly down after being up

-Say there is no more food even with container full of food aroud it

Thanks a lot, sorry for all the trouble I will try to experiment this ^^

Here's an example (for oreblasting bombs)

Check https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php/Modding:JSON_Patching for more informations

Is there a place where I should add the "siegeEquipment: true" exactly or at the end of the attribute list is fine? If I do that server side player don't need the mod file with the patche? I'm trying to add the siege gun from Rusty shell and some woods block, sorry to ask you all of that I'm not really familliard wit tweaking thing in file other than configs ones ^^'

Lastelle Thanks a lot for all the information it will help me greatly to make my server ^^

Samino2

A really stupid mis-typing was causing that haha, this is fixed!

Thank you for the feedback and crash report!

Samino2

A log would be great!

Allowed blocks can be added easily via patching by adding an attribute : "siegeEquipment: true"

About leagues, they are simply a reference to a given vanilla groups (/group)

Hi, I got a crash when right cliking Gabion do you need log?

It's just an idea but is it simple to add a config file to add allow block to be placed inside claim? Same about the claim size?

how to join or add someone in a league?

McTaco

Thanks! Mainly making sure group features actually work (access granting, siege notifications) since I could only test features that didn't involve multiple real players, as well as finding exploits

Super Interesting, What do you need from us to help you with this?

This looks very promising.

wow this can actually create an awesome kingdom based experience

This sounds pretty fricking neat!
Interested to see how it develops further :D
