[BETA] Script Pack Download and Instructions

[Magnar]

This pack is not available on Steamworkshop as it requires more than just clicking subscribe.

To ensure that people read and follow the installation instructions properly I've created a separate thread for it.

This pack is optional. The mod will work without it.

Installaion and Download Link
1) Download the script pack from source forge https://sourceforge.net/projects/r2m.../Magnar%20Mod/

2) Extract the contents of the pack to Rome 2/Data folder

3) Select the script pack from the mod manager when you play.


Included Scripts

Punic War Scrip
For Carthage and Rome: If either go to war or tresspass against Syracuse, then the other should declare war.

Roman Socii Etruscan Script
Rome: If Rome defeats the Etruscans then Rome can recruit 2 new Etruscan Socii units.

Iberian Reform Script
Rome and Carthage: If either capture 3 Iberian provinces, then all celtibarian and Iberian factions will get a more united roster
Iberian or Celtibarian Faction: If one of these factions owns 6 or more regions in Iberia, the united roster reform will trigger.

If there is only 1 Iberian or Celtibarian faction remaining, the reform will also trigger.

Advisor text for Punic War Script (advisor may be buggy but the script should work)

[Magnar]

There seems to be a number of bugs with this script pack. So consider it a early beta version.

[Balbor]

maybe just setting Rome and Syracuse as defensive allies at the start, you'll soon be asked to go to war with Carthage

[Magnar]

wont have the desired result as it has to go both ways, if rome declares on syracuse or if carthage does

[Balbor]

Does the script view the shared sea as territory?

[Magnar]

i dont think it takes the sea into account. though im not sure 100%

[elbomberoloco]

Two things :
1. What are the names of the 2 Etruscan Socii units?
2. Is the script with punic wars supposed to come up after every turn ? Does in my current campaign...

[Magnar]

The scripts are not working properly atm

the unit names are
Socii Hastatorum Etruscorum
Socii Peditum Etruscorum



but i dont think they are working

[elbomberoloco]

Those units show in my recruit options but it says restricted to prolog so I can not actually recruit them, seems like a cool concept though.

[Magnar]

That is strange indeed. Im pretty sure its a script bug but the scripts wont be fixed till much later as our scripter has left and other areas are more of a priority for me to start scripting just yet.

[elbomberoloco]

No worries just giving some feedback. Thanks for your work on this mod.

[elbomberoloco]

Just a little more feedback, I started a new campaign and both of those units are available as soon as an auxiliary barracks is built...

[Ettore953]

I tested srcipts yesterday with 12 live and, again, war with Cartago is permanent

[Magnar]

Yes scripts are broken and wont be fixed for some time. I recommend not using them for now.

[Causeless]

Why would you need to download these separately? Doesn't DeI have scripts that work just through the workshop?

[Magnar]

Because these have bugs and are not polished and it is actually best not use them atm. Also these allow for debugging

[Causeless]

Oh, right! I thought it was a limitation with R2TW modding... thanks for the quick reply!

I'm really convinced that once/if (hopefully the former) we get music, campaign map and battle map modding, Rome 2 will be the most versatile TW game for modding yet.

[Magnar]

Well the limitation with the modding is that it wont write a debug file unless the text file already exists.

so having it separately downloadable means we can get them to add the log text doc as well

[Causeless]

But that's only really important for development, isn't it?
