But make sure you have the right log in the cfg file

Code:

[log] 
to = mods/your mod name/system.log.txt 
level = game.script* trace
file = game.script* mods/your mod name/logs/your mod name.script.log.txt

you will have 2 options one in the mods/your mod/system.log.txt
and another one in the mods/your mod/log sub folder.

Why ? if Scotland owns Dublin , and engalnd owns edinburg , and builds a brothel in edinburgh , then scotland will get the money

So , i suggest the last monitor looks like this :

Code:

monitor_event BuildingCompleted SettlementName Edinburgh
   and SettlementBuildingFinished = brothel
   and I_SettlementOwner Edinburgh = scotland

   console_command add_money scotland, 1000

end_monitor

Yes good point i need to be more spacific thanks.

Do you use an editor like Notepad++? If not you should, errors like that are going to come up all the time in scripting, you need to be able to see a line count in the txt file and skim to the line the error log indicates to check it for errors(and surrounding lines/monitors).

**Killerbee** · July 06, 2009, 12:49 AM

ZOMG , AL ! Your name turned from blue to some kind of orange i've never seen before

Nice job !

But they seemed to have fired.. London is full of troops and I have mountains o cash... completed? I say for the most part.. Funny how a comma can screw things up so badly.. Lesson 2 tomorrow!

**Augustus Lucifer** · July 07, 2009, 12:21 AM

You don't have a space after the > in and Treasury > 15000

**Subuatai de Bodemloze** · July 07, 2009, 09:03 AM

Maybe not but it did fire. I checked it in the console.

don't recognise this token: and

Usually when this happens you have a bad condition or a typo just above it, and when it hits the next line in the script it fails.

Example:

Code:

monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionIsLocal
     and FactionType
     and Treasury > 10000
         some_commands
end_monitor

As you can see I left out the faction name after FactionType, so the next thing it encounters is the word "and" when its looking for a faction name. this will throw one of two errors, it will either tell you invalid faction name or cant recognize the token AND.

The best advice I can give is to write your scripts one portion at a time, get it working in sections.

I really have to thank AL for helping out here as I have been buried with other stuff. I am going to try to catch up tonight on everyone.
