Curse of the Bikini Bottom Released!

Venris Here!
It took me more than 300 hours to make this update. An insane amount of work I have to say. But, in my opinion, it was worth it. There are too many changes to note all of them in this announcement, so grab the changelog here:
CHANGELGOG HERE
IMPORTANT: this update doesn’t work on CA’s Festag Update. Why?
1. The Beta Update changes many tables that the mod uses, so I will need to touch them again.
2. CA changed how lords’ skill trees are working. SFO adds more than 150 new skills, so I imagine that all of them need to be remade now.
An SFO Festag Update will be released in coming week or weeks. I will try to finish it before Christmas, but no promises. From what I know, CA won’t release it this year so we have time to polish it.
Submods made by me will be updated in the coming days.
Let's talk about some future stuff also.
1. Lokhir will get a ship mechanic, but not now, because adding just Black Arks’ buildings won't work. In SFO, Black Arks get many bonuses for their army because they lack lord skills. Combining those two things would be imbalanced and stupid tbh. Black Ark on land?
2. Horde mechanic will be added to Greenskins as a reward for high Greentide level. But it will be a small version of it only with a few additions and at the end game.
3. No plans to add it anywhere else beside a small addition that I don't want to spoil. I really don't like adding the same feature to all factions. It kills the uniqueness of each faction, and SFO always tries to avoid that.
4. Just before this update, Patrons decided which faction will get the next SFO campaign overhaul. Bretonnia won so... Fur Da Lady!
5. With Bretonnia overhaul: full traits overhaul and new heroes’ skills similar to what lords received few months ago. I want traits to be main game factor when picking new lords. All army buff skills will also be nerfed. It's quite a complex change that I’ve been planning for a long time, and will have a huge impact on the game.
6. I know that many of you wonder ‘what about things from the last future content list?’. My plans have to change because I became a father, and time is my main enemy now. Many people help me, but still I am doing 95% of modding fully alone. That's why I will be trying to expand the team with a new member that will be able to carry on SFO with me, and not just help from time to time. In the future, SFO will be expanding more and more, and not just as a mod. So this is very needed now because I have only 2 hands :(.
Side note: I received over 50 friend invites on Steam. I am not able to answer all of you, so please send messages on discord if it's important or if you just want to talk. I just don’t have a place on Steam anymore.
So I would like all of you to enjoy the new update. I am taking a break for a few days to spend time with family. They deserve it after these hard weeks.
As an ending note, I want to say a big thank you to all supporters, Patrons, and those that helped me during this time. Without you I would have left all of this a long time ago. You keep me going!
Venris out!

Thanks, trying at least :).
You're like a modding super hero - many updates break your mods, and you're still updating them, still adding, still fixing, and you have a kid? Incredible, I hope you get the help you deserve :)
SFO is the best thing that's happened since realese of first Warhammer. CA should pay You for doing their job, but knowing them it'd end as dlc or dlc's. Have a great time with family and know that many thanks You a lot.
