Lone wolf - free squire
I am at level 11, day 21, and 18000xp. No brothers recruited. Waiting for the free squire, but haven's got that event yet. Always camp at large city when needing armour repair or heeling. Anyone know if there is a possibility that he never shows up?
I did get the free squire event early in the game, but reloaded a save because he had bad stats with just a few stars that where in less desired attributes. Also bad traits including dumb.
In Skyrum, if you buy something in a shop, then reloads a save prior to the buying, the item you bought is not in the shop's store. Could it be the same "mechanism" in Battle Brothers? (If you reload a save after the free squire event, the free squire event is registered as "done" and not "in event pool".)
Update: Now at level 12, day 23. Still no free squire event.

That's most unfortunate since it makes the event "an iron man event" even if you don't play iron man mode.

В следующий раз не перезагружайте сохранение, а отредактируйте при помощи редактора от Лорда Шэнка!

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattleBrothers/comments/a1yc2t/bbedit_110/

Next time, do not reload the save, but edit with the save editor from Shank Lord!

Thanks for tip :-)

Yep, it's not that it marks the event as done; it's just that events are randomly triggered. Since there is no roll seed, like in XCOM, and instead every roll is randomly generated independently, if you reload the save the event might not trigger at that moment.

OK, so is that to say that the event will take place at some tiime? If so, this event has to come before day 25 to make any sense. It did not for me.
In order to survive increased enemy difficulty, I had to start recruiting at day 25.

К сожалению, Вы ошибаетесь 8( У этого события ограничение: оно происходит один раз!

lone_wolf_origin_squire_event.nut:
10 this.m.Cooldown = 999999.0 * this.World.getTime().SecondsPerDay;

Unfortunately, You are wrong 8( This event has a limitation: it happens once!

To be honest, I'm not sure about this event in particular, I can only say that as far as I know, that is how events work in general.

@Centurion-x, not saying that this event can happen more than once, only that it's very likely that the game does not count it as done if you reload a save. :)

Всё зависит от того, когда было сделано сохранение! Если до того, как нанять оруженосца, то, конечно, событие сработает вскоре снова. Если наоборот, то уже не сработает, пока игра не будет запущена заново. У меня эта ситуация случилась в прошлом году. Я прождал 50 дней 8) Без результата 8))

Then it all depends on when the save was made! If before as hire the squire, of course, the event should work again soon. If on the contrary, already it will not work until the game is restarted. This happened to me last year. And I have waited 50 days 8) Without result 8))

The save I loaded was a couple of minutes before the event took place. My lone wolf was around level 5 at the time. At level 12, day 25, and still no free squire event, I started recruiting. If the event should have taken place after the reload, then the game need a patch to make sure it actually happens before the lone wolf reaches level x, where x is lower than 11, and preferably 6.

Это странно 8( В событии не проверяется уровень персонажа. Скрипт содержит проверку только на количество братьев в Вашем отряде (не должно быть никого, кроме самого одинокого волка), а также на расстояние до города (не более 4 клеток) и отношение к игроку.

This is strange 8( The event does not check the character's level. The script contains only a check for the number of brothers in Your squad (there should be no one except the lone wolf), as well as the distance to the city (no more than 4 cells) and town's attitude towards the player.

Not sure how you messed this up. Have got the free squire everytime I did a lonewolf start.

For what its worth the free squires I have got have always had stars in the wrong spots and sucked. Much better off recruiting a squire if you want one.

This is my 2nd lone wolf game. In my first, I got a free squire with 3 stars in melee attack. That is why I reloaded a save when getting a useless one in my 2nd game. If bad stats/stars are the normal, I guess I was just lucky in my first game.

yes it will still trigger again so long as you have zero party and going near cities and did not ahd the event yet }so reload prior it still make it available)

However it is not at all guaranteed it will trigger prior day XX and randomized again once you reload.

I suggest just go between all big cities on map and it will eventually trigger at some.

Имеется некая система очков. Каждому событию в списке задана своя вероятность срабатывания. Так у события "оруженосца одинокого волка" = 75 баллов. То есть, насколько я это понимаю, если в перечне событий оно одно, то сработает с вероятностью в 75%.

lone_wolf_origin_squire_event.nut:
238 this.m.Score = 75;

There is a some point system. Each event in the pool has its own probability of being triggered. And this event (a squire for the lone wolf) has 75 points. That is, as far as I understand this, if there is only this event in the event pool, it will work with a probability of 75%.
