      FAQ

      I have 100+ mods installed and your mod is causing a crash!

      Nothing I can do about it, I'm not going to install 100+ mods to debug your issue, you narrow it down to the mods in question and I'll be much more inclined to take a look.

      I encountered an issue, what should I do?

      Post the information in the correct mod channel on Discord. The more information (screenshot, logs, reports, actions, etc.) provided the easier and faster it will be to resolve the issue.

      Why is the bugs tab disabled?

      It is too hard/time consuming to manage all the bug sections on my mods. Use Discord.

      Is it save game compatible?

      Yes, it can safely be added to an ongoing save game. It should be safe to remove from a save, but you should always backup your save before attempting any game/save modification.

      Are you going to update to x.x.x version?

      Maybe, it really depends if I am actively working on Bannerlord modding or not. I try to make a conscious effort to update for every version but sometimes life happens.

      Can you add this feature?

      Maybe, it depends on if it's possible, but I would love to hear your suggestions on the community Discord server.
