Hi everyone,


There was a request for some additional tags in the AoW3 workshop, so I went ahead and added some. Here are the tags and what I though you can use them for.

When uploading the creator specified if the item is a:

• Scenario A handmade map.
  
• Campaign A series of handmade maps with an overarching story.
  
• Mod Any other change to the game.

The new tags allow us to add some more details about mods,

There is a set of tags to indicate what type of changes made in the mod:

• Balance Update Changes to stats to address game balance
  
• Mechanics Overhaul Large sweeping fundamental changes to how the game plays
  
• New Content Added new units, heroes, abilities, skills, etc.
  
• New Visuals Added new graphical assets to the game
  
• Visual Update Updates of graphical assets in the game

There is a set of tags to indicate which type of things were changed in the mod:

• Abilities Mod does something with unit abilities
  
• Audio Mod does something with sound effects and/or music
  
• Buildings Mod does something with structures, cities or city upgrades
  
• Diplomacy Mod changes something with Diplomacy, Relations, Alignment, Race Relations and/or the Vassal system.
  
• Heroes Mod does something with heroes
  
• Interface Mod changes something about the interface
  
• Items Mod changes something with Items or the Item Forge
  
• Leaders Mod does something with leaders
  
• RMG Mod made changes to the options in the rmg, or how rmg generates maps
  
• Skills & Spells Mod does something with skills or spells
  
• Terrain Mod does something with layers, themes, overlays or decorations
  
• Units Mod does something with units

And there are some generally useful tags:

• Convenience Changed a small thing that annoyed you or others
  
• Compatibility Merged or updated mod to resolve mod conflicts
  
• Used by RMG New things in the mod have been set up to be used by the RMG

The idea is that a mod can have several of these tags to describe what changes or additions were made.

We'll be going through a bunch of the mods to add tags. If you are a mod maker you can request tags - or changes to ones we've assign - for your mods in this topic. Please add a link to your mod in such requests.

You can set tags for your mods in the Package Manager from patch 1.705 onward.

I hope you'll find these extra tags useful.
