1. Introduction:
Ancordia v1.10 is the second major version of the module. While it still lacks some of planned features, which will be added in later versions, release 1.10 includes a lot of new features and bug fixes, as well as some class balance tweaks.
Notably, this version still spans only a single region of the realm of Ancordia, whereas the final version will feature nine regions. Another notable feature still missing is a player-managed city. I'm doing my best to make sure the final version is ready as soon as possible, though!
If you find any bugs, please report them to me. You can do so by contacting me on neverwintervault.org (where I am known as Grani), GOG.com (Taro94) or by sending an e-mail to my address:
stjasiewicz@gmail.com .
Check out
http://ancordia.esy.eswebsite regularly to be up to date with any news or updates to the module.
I hope you have fun and if you do (or don't!), make sure to vote on my module's vault entry to let others know what you think of my work!

3. Recommended game settings:
Auto failure on 1: OFF (0)
Allow localvault characters: ON (1) for LOCAL mode and OFF (0) for ONLINE mode (see below)
Item level restrictions: OFF (0)
One party: OFF (0)
Player pause: ON (1) for LOCAL mode and OFF (0) for ONLINE mode
Reload if empty: OFF (0)
Game difficulty: Hardcore D&D ruleset (3)
Max hit points: ON (1)

The module has two modes of operations. Its default mode is LOCAL, designed for solo play and an occassional LAN party with local characters.
The other mode is ONLINE, which makes the module suitable for hosting as a persistent world, 24 hours a day, with server vault characters.
To change the mode of operation, one needs to open the module in the toolset and edit its local string "MODE": proper values are "LOCAL" and
"ONLINE" and it will revert to "LOCAL" if an invalid value is specified.
In LOCAL mode:
-the first player who logs in become authorized (an "admin" of sorts), which gives them some control over the world,
even if they are not a Dungeon Master; an authorized player can authorize others if they wish to do so
-all players can learn about world difficulty level settings from a clerk in Greentree, even if they are not authorized to change them
-PCs cannot be deleted by talking to a clerk in Greentree (they are supposed to be stored in local vault anyway, so there's no need for this)
-house owners don't need to have their houses visited regularly to keep them
-miles travelled by PCs are stored on the go in PC databases (due to absence of the OnClientExit event in singleplayer games)
In ONLINE mode:
-Dungeon Masters are the only ones in control of the world
-regular players cannot learn about difficulty level settings from a clerk in Greentree
-PCs can delete their characters by talking to a clerk in Greentree
-house owners (or authorized persons) have to visit their houses at least once in 60 real-time days (can be changed by modifying a module's integer
"HOUSE_DAYS", or the house will be returned to the agency
-miles travelled by PCs are only stored on client's exit to reduce database load
-NOTE: in order for character deletion to work, servervault and database folders need to have their default names (i.e. "servervault" and "database")
It's highly recommended that solo players have patch 1.71 and NWN client extender (NWNCX) installed, to make use of all features and fixes the module has to offer.
On the other hand, in multiplayer (whether in LOCAL or ONLINE mode) it's recommended that the game is launched with NWNX with the following plugins:
-nwnx_connection: allows players to preload haks on connect, so that they can create characters without them being marked as illegal
-nwnx_files: required for ONLINE mode to make character deletion and housing work, not strictly necessary for LOCAL multiplayer
All connecting players also need "nwncx_connection" plugin for NWNCX, or "nwnx_connection" won't work for them.

15. Parry mode:

16. Levelling restrictions:
Player characters must advance in such a way, that they will have at least 10 levels in every class they have by the time they reach the maximum level (lvl40).
For example, a character with 30 levels of druid and 1 level of monk will be disallowed to take a level in any class other than monk, because this would make it impossible for the character to have at least 10 monk levels at character level 40.
