I finally decided I was done waiting and tested it myself. It does indeed work with Medieval Overhaul's Messenger Table

Does anyone know if this will work with Medieval Overhaul's version of the comms console (messenger table)? I would love to use this with my medieval run, to ransom off enemy knights that I capture.

When I try to call a faction on the comms console to ransom their leader, it says I can't call them because their leader is unavailable (because they're in my prison). Am I missing something, or can you just not ransom faction leaders?

Is there a option to disable enemy raid when bargain failed? I did failed some time because don't know fail means 100% another raid now a tribe raid me nearly 20 times and they come waves by waves, their bodies have covered half of map, worst thing is my frame drop below 5. Everytime they came to raid me aaaaaaaaaa this make me crazy lol

Surprising everyone including myself.. update.
French and Russian translations
Fix for breaking the UI
Fix for long names breaking the ransom UI

And while not bulk ransoming.. it does send you back to the ransom screen after ransoming someone, that should make it easier at least.

Is there anything integrated into this mod that increases the ransom amount for a faction leader?
Syok (You) Sep 4, 2024 @ 4:09am 
tremendous mod
Narlindir Sep 4, 2024 @ 2:29am 
the difference is merely user comfort and conveninece :shrug:
erdelf  [author] Sep 3, 2024 @ 1:41pm 
what's the difference between it ? You already got the option to change the values for the calculation.
Narlindir Sep 3, 2024 @ 10:05am 
[BUG] when prisoners are being carried it breaks
cuz you cant sell them but can still make a demand

also +1 for a bulk ransome
also a feature to set the raid chance instead of the silver demanded
or have a "always ask for 0% raid chance amount of siver"

Any chance for a bulk ransom button? I just had to ransom off about two dozen prisoners.
kev675243 Jul 13, 2024 @ 9:27pm 
so not sure why, but currently trying to ransom back a prisoner but for some reason it won't leave the silver amount selection screen no matter what I do
erdelf  [author] Apr 3, 2024 @ 3:18am 
huh.. you are absolutely correct, seems my language files got lost somewhere while updating.
Thanks for the headsup
Sally smithson Apr 3, 2024 @ 1:16am 
I am playing this in 1.5. And the UI doesn't provide details about the silver amount.
I looked in the files, and there is no language folder present in the 1.5 folder.

So i put the 1.4 language folder in the 1.5 folder and now it shows the silver amount from the ransom. However the cancel button is gone now

I did, that discussion is fairly barren.
However, it seems I was wrong. It seems to work with RimWar :)

You may want to read the Conflict with Rim War? discussion thread above.

Had the same issue as AOITAKA. but just spam the ESC button, got rid of it.
AOITAKA Nov 1, 2023 @ 3:35am 
May you add a cancel bottom? I got a error when I tried to sell someone who was in a biosculpter pod, and I couldn't close the window even I pushed the ESC bottom.

definitely not a bug, but i ran into a funny encounter with this. I wanted to see how it would go if I kept ransoming one pawn at a super high prices until they accepted... note to self, do not do. a few days later a fucking army arrived and now my game won't open
erdelf  [author] Sep 24, 2023 @ 5:17am 
log or nobody can help
MasterCaT Sep 24, 2023 @ 4:16am 
whenever i ask ransom game crashes
Jawsh Sep 20, 2023 @ 12:44pm 
Ah I see thanks for clearing that up :) love this mod a lot
erdelf  [author] Sep 20, 2023 @ 12:31pm 
not deleted, just returned to their faction. You can run into them again.
And yes they instantly vanish because.. there was just no feasible way to not make that exploitable.
Jawsh Sep 20, 2023 @ 12:11pm 
Does selling prisoners delete them? Whenever they're sold they're not really "released" they kinda just disappear. I'm hoping they stay in the game with a chance of running into them again
erdelf  [author] Sep 1, 2023 @ 3:02am 
it does decrease their value though ^^
powerwordspirit Aug 31, 2023 @ 8:31pm 
Ransoming prisoners after harvesting their organs will be quite profitable.
Tom Jackal Jul 31, 2023 @ 5:35pm 
the axes are unlabeled for one
erdelf  [author] Jul 31, 2023 @ 5:24pm 
how so ?
Tom Jackal Jul 31, 2023 @ 1:29pm 
the graph is a mess to read, even as someone who can understand some of the math in it
erdelf  [author] May 26, 2023 @ 8:09am 
oh it's still using the alpha graphics even ^^ I didn't feel like making a new one.
selest19 May 26, 2023 @ 4:45am 
i find it funny the picture still uses the beta graphics
HAZRAD Apr 19, 2023 @ 12:34pm 
Good mod to have, just so you have the option to ransom prisoners, good job!
Artheus_7 Jan 18, 2023 @ 3:10am 
dude generates 10 raids at the same time, is mad when 10 raids come and attack him at the same time and crashes his game.
erdelf  [author] Jan 14, 2023 @ 8:45pm 
someone has a bad day. I don't decide how large the raids are.

I tell the game to generate a threat in form of a raid, from that faction, and that the raid strategy is immediately attacking.

Any raid the game would've thrown at you randomly would've had the same size.
The Guy in Your Closet Dec 28, 2022 @ 3:06pm 
It would be neat if they counter offered as another alternative to being raided
GarethTheGoblin Oct 25, 2022 @ 5:24am 
Can i also change the relation "gain" to negative so when i ransom prisoners i lose relation?
Miggy Oct 24, 2022 @ 12:08pm 
Thanks for the status on an update, nice to know it's being looked at :)
Compineer Oct 22, 2022 @ 4:57am 
Would love to see a 1.4 update on this!
erdelf  [author] Oct 21, 2022 @ 11:59am 
yep
MrSpacePenguin Oct 21, 2022 @ 11:37am 
will this get update for 1.4?
brucethemoose Oct 7, 2022 @ 8:35pm 
1.4?
Shade Oct 3, 2022 @ 2:50am 
Does this work with modded comms consoles? Like the tribal signal fire mod, or the medieval overhaul messenger bird?
martingolding96 Aug 30, 2022 @ 2:31am 
The line "There is a slight chance that they don't accept and raid you"
Should be reworded to "There is a slight chance that they don't accept and they send you more prisoners"
Plutoski Jul 16, 2022 @ 5:23pm 
i love this mod, though i think its unbalanced, selling each prisoner for 1000 or more is a lot of money, it feels like an exploit. i had to drop ransom mult. to 1x
HakoyuKaya Jun 9, 2022 @ 12:13am 
Are you talking about adjusting the transaction price through the slider?
This solution is very good
But if you have a large number of prisoners, it is quite troublesome to trade
erdelf  [author] Jun 8, 2022 @ 10:48pm 
It's not easy to drag the slider.. what ?
Also, with the trading interface, you loose half of the mods function.
HakoyuKaya Jun 8, 2022 @ 10:19am 
And it's not easy to drag using the slider bar
It would be good if you use the trading interface
HakoyuKaya Jun 8, 2022 @ 6:23am 
Can sell more than one prisoner at a time?
