Hi Sami, welcome back!  Screenies:

Hmmm, looks like I need help posting screenshots...  I put links to imgur above in the img tags above and nothing is showing?

Edit - Okay, you can see the links now, sorry I am a halfwit and can't work out how to embed them

Nope, I have been walking back and forth naked in my cabin so that's not a factor.

I am also a save scummer ahem, archival saver...  but I only keep the one back-up and it was done while I was already injured.

I can't see anything in news.txt

And Signatus, when you have an 8 kmh walking speed, you never need to run    I have got naked and walked up and down inside my cabin, so there should be no terrain or encumbrance effects.  I have also quit the game and reloaded and no difference.

This was a minor wound, my Finn has taken two serious wounds too, a sword to the face and an axe to the shoulder.  As my profile still shows my speed as maxed out, I wonder if the serious wounds also left effects on me that aren't so apparent as speed?  The shoulder wound made me do a lot of stuff one-handed, but that stopped when it healed.  But how would I know if it had permanently lowered dexterity or strength?

My Finn has speed maxed out and was walking at 8 kmh in his hunting gear...  until he took an arrow to the knee 

The minor puncture wound has healed but his speed hasn't, he is now at 7 kmh and that drops to 6 kmh with gear.

I am running version 3.52 and using the BAC mod.

I've been playing URW quite a while now and have never seen injury effects persist after the injury has healed.  Anybody got any idea if my speed will come back?

Modding / Re: Modding in valuable metals (Gold, Silver, Copper) for trade.

As I understand it, bronze weapons were still highly prized during the iron age because bronze can hold a sharper edge than iron can.  The reason iron took over was because it was much easier (and therefore cheaper) to produce and maintain.  I don't know if it is possible to mod how quickly weapons degrade, but if it is then a bronze weapon should be superior to iron but more expensive and degrade faster.  Gold and silver weapons are almost useless as weapons, but they look cool and right through history to the present day people have been happy to pay a lot to look cool   

Ingots for trading is a great idea!

Suggestions / Re: No harpoons? Unique ranged hunting weapons in finnish culture?

1) It would be nice to be able to attach ropes to the ango so as to attempt to hold a speared seal... though obviously if the seal weighs more than you do then it's unlikely to end well!  Maybe tying the bitter end of the ropes off on a tree would work, but it would often be a long wait to ambush a seal in range.

2)  That's a bolas, and I don't think one would be any use in a forest.  Where a spear or arrow may penetrate undergrowth to hit an animal's legs, a bolas won't.

3)  I have seen Sami people using lassos to control tamed reindeer, but I reckon you'd have to get very close to get an un-penned wild reindeer with one.
