Metsuke_Fix_v2.pack

Sorry.

In the original fix, I forgot that the metsuke gained additional levels when recruited from a Library Chain building. The original mod resulted in agents at level 4 being recruited from the Magistrate upgrade. This was not my intention to have more powerful agents.

In this version of the mod, the increased bonus level for metsukes recruited from the Library Chain has been reduced by 1 to correct this.


Bug Fix for Metsuke Apprehension of Monks

If you have ever had your favourite Level 6 Monks apprehended by a Level 1 Metsuke, you will be familiar with this problem. It is not RNG. It is a bug.

The Level 1 Metsuke has a 95% success probability when apprehending a Monk of Level 4, 5 or 6. No matter whether the Monk is in an army, or a fort.

Typical success probability against various targets are:
Level 1 Metsuke vs Level 1 Monk 33%*
Level 3 Metsuke vs Level 1 Monk 57%*
Level 4 Metsuke vs Level 1 Monk 64%*

Level 1 Metsuke vs Level 2 Monk 17%*
Level 3 Metsuke vs Level 2 Monk 40%*
Level 4 Metsuke vs Level 2 Monk 47%*

Level 1 Metsuke vs Level 3 Monk 5%*
Level 3 Metsuke vs Level 3 Monk 23%*
Level 4 Metsuke vs Level 3 Monk 30%*

Level 1 Metsuke vs Level 4 Monk 95%*
Level 3 Metsuke vs Level 4 Monk 15%*
Level 4 Metsuke vs Level 4 Monk 21%*

The Level 1 Metsuke success probability remains at 95% for Level 5 and 6 Monk targets.

*Numbers will vary slightly depending whether the target is in the open, in a fort, or in an army.


The problem lies within the game not the database files so cannot be corrected. This mod provides a compromise work-around to stop players losing their precious high level monks to a metsuke straight out of the box.

The mod has Metsukes recruited at Level 2. They will receive their first Retainer and One skill point to spend. They will therefore be better than the default Level 1 metsuke for the first 7 turns after recruiting. They will not get the second skill point until they level up to level 3 which comes at the usual 60 experience point total.

After the first 7 turns they will not be as good as the default which would have already received its two skill points at 20 experience. By staggering the award of the skill points, the difference in income (most players use the metsuke for tax collection) over the period from recruitment to level 3 promotion (60 experience) is not significant.
