Changes: Monarch

Revision as of 02:21, 5 August 2020

For the Dead Lands Monarchs, see: Monarchs (Dead Lands).

The Monarch is the playable character in the Kingdom series. The Monarch runs the kingdom by traversing it upon their mount, and organising the work of their subjects, using coins.

Appearance

The King wears the Crown and a coloured cape while the Queen wears a Tiara and coloured dress.

Players choose their monarch's appearance when first starting the game. By pressing the S or ↓ button (or by tapping the screen in the mobile version) during the loading screen, sex, skin colour, and the colour of the cape or dress will be randomised, letting the player decide on their preference. Once selected, players cannot change their character unless they start a new game.

Players also get their character a banner with random tinctures, ordinaries and charge after they establish a camp in game. The colour of the banner will be the same with the colour of the character's cape or dress.

PC – The pause screen allows the player to alter the banner manually. For details, see Coat of arms.

Cooperation

This is about Kingdom Two Crowns.

#Multiplayer

Cooperative, commonly abbreviated as co-op, is an alternative way of playing Kingdom Two Crowns, where two Monarchs cooperate with each other within the same Kingdom.

For further information, see: Co-op.

Bug

On online co-op, whenever the second Monarch rejoins the campaign or when they travel to a new island, his/her pouch is completely emptied. See the work-around on history.

Trivia

So far there is no defeat where the Monarch outright dies, although they are implied to have died since the Ghost has the colour of the previous monarch's dress/cloak.

History

Date	Platform	Version	Change
Apr 28, 2020 Bad “date” format	All	1.1.0 - R9972	Four monarchs with their own specific abilities replace the regular monarchs on Dead Lands. BUG: On online co-op, whenever the 2nd Monarch (client) rejoins the campaign or when they travel to a new island, his/her pouch is completely emptied. All coins and gems disappear. According to dev. Angelica on Discord and on Steam: "the coins and gems are not completely lost, but sort of invisible and unusable." And suggests the following work-arounds: Let the hosting player hold the valuables when you transition between islands or when you take a break from the game. If you're playing on Steam, you can try using Steam's Remote Play functionality to avoid this bug altogether and play split-screen. The issue does not happen in local co-op sessions (which Steam remote play is using, even though it's online). If the issue occurs, the coins and gems are not completely lost, but sort of invisible and unusable. There is a way to get them back - if you let a greed hit the ruler they will magically pop out of the bag and become visible and usable if you pick them up again. So go stand by a portal, let a single greed spawn, and hit you a bunch of time and the coins and gems should return.
