Adding a Codex: go for realism or gameplay?
🕑 Added 2024-07-30 11:10:15 +0000 UTCOne feature that has been asked for many times in the past was a place where you'll be able to track the amount of children sired, as well as find information of all deities, fiefdoms, buildings, Karder's stats etc. So in version 0.13 we'll add Codex containing all the information specified above (let me know if you'd want anything not specified!)
But I'm wondering where to put this Codex. From a more "realistic" approach, putting it in the palace would be the coolest. You go to the palace and you click a link, like going to the Dungeons or the palace yard. However, we could also make it always available from the left menu, so if you're in a middle of a quest and wish to remember who Chiroz is or if you're in the world map and would like to learn how buildings exactly work, it would be easier to have that info exactly where you are.
So what do you think? Realism to Quality of Life? Have the codex accessible only from the palace or from everywhere?

Personally, I'm in favor of the immersive codex where it is available from the palace rather than always accessible. However, I can certainly understand the desire for ease of access to information that other players would appreciate. If it wouldn't be too much additional effort, you could perhaps implement both and make a toggle in the settings for Immersive/Convenient Codex similar to how there are options as to which combat system is used. It'd take more time and effort, but it would allow you to appeal to both the players that would enjoy the realism of having to visit the library as well as those that would prefer the quality of life afforded by the quick, easy, and constant access to the codex via the menu.

Make it available from everywhere but a 'physical' codex is visible next to the throne at the palace. A small (or big) tome you can click on to open the codex would be nice.

You could make it available in the bedroom, make a room dedicated to the bedroom with a table in it with the codex in a book form on it. Would be cool
