Barony V4.3.1 Direct

The modding API has been bumped to version 3.1. Any mods that hook into AI movement or multiplayer state will need to be recompiled. The monster_ai.lua hooks have changed; refer to the official Discord’s #mod-dev channel for the migration guide. Final Verdict Barony v4.3.1 is not glamorous. It does not add a new playable race (no playable Skeletons yet, sorry). It does not introduce a 100-floor endless mode. What it does is transform Barony from a "lovably janky" roguelike into a "tightly wound, punishing but fair" experience.

Prior to 4.3.1, long co-op sessions (Floor 15+) would often witness a gradual unraveling of reality: a friend walking into a wall on your screen, but fighting a Lich on theirs; a chest that contains a Storm Hammer for you, but a Rotten Apple for them. The modding API has been bumped to version 3

If a discrepancy is found (e.g., entity positions, trap states, or inventory counts), the client now performs a soft-resync without dropping the connection. The result is a noticeable reduction in the "Ghost Mimic" glitch—where a Mimic is dead on the host’s game but alive and hungry on yours. Final Verdict Barony v4
