List of Known Bugs/Issues:
- Some rigging needs refinement
- Some LOD's are not properly done and might look visually displeasing from a distance.
- Artillery Cannon Rotation gets stuck at about 180° degrees (you have to turn around the other way then).
- Cannon mechanics are still a heavy WIP and Cannonballs might not behave like expected.
- Native Factions are the only ones listed in the Main Menu
- Faction Selection shows half-naked Men for NW Factions
- Multiple Factions may miss their icons in some menus due to some possible oversights.
- Native Factions remain selectable options if faction_polls are enabled
- Several Class Limits are not implemented
- Some external (not yet disabled/removed) features might cause the client to crash. Usually related to SAE. Please leave this DISABLED at ALL times.
- If you manage to get the Player Commander Game-Mode working, Expect that only admins can reliably use the recruiting function. It is very WIP taken-over from a different module.
- Commander Battle / Captain is currently not working as expected. I am unsure if the module works properly as it was untested after various work
- No Groupfighting / Melee-Only mode. ( Will come )
- Bots reloading Artillery Cannons seem to cause crashes (non-traceable)
- Bots don't work on all maps.
- You need to be logged in as an admin with AdminPassword to access the admin features, even when set as admin in your own config
- Reviving a Player in GameModes with a Respawn Timer Active might cause a you to freeze in the menu due to it loading twice (needing you to rejoin the server in worst-case)
- As Admin you have the ability to change to local-only maps which might not be installed on the server. Avoid this if possible and instead rely on using the proper Native / NWF Maps (when they are there)
- Certain Behaviours may seem like bugs (but are either not fully implemented or leftover code) including but not limited to:
 * Spawning in Warm-Up does not let you choose equipment
 * Being in God-Mode still lets you die (it only sets your life really high)
 * You cannot disable God-Mode properly (the health increase still stays)
 * You cannot shoot or reload while crouching (Future TaleWorlds Update might address this)
 * Using Native TW GameModes has a very likely chance of crashing the server or causing unexpected behaviour (REFER TO THE UPCOMING SERVERHOSTING GUIDE)
 * Various Interfaces which include the Animation Menu are placeholders and don't actually function since they aren't set-up
 * GameModes like Scenario, BattleRoyale and CvC and PvC are not implemented or lack support due to missing maps / prefabs to make them work.
