J@mes' Kingdoms Scripts

Looks ok to me in the first look.
Did you see your log file? Scripting errors are logged in it.

Couldn't create a script from file mods/Stainless_Steel_6/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/campaign_script.txt
Not sure how to interpret this but it seem I made a typo in the expanded.txt yet I can't find one, Line 695 is "change_settlement_name Metz Divodurum" Divodurum is in Expanded.txt so is Metz, odd.

we need more than that

[KillerBee256]

there isn't much more but here it is, is there another log file?

Sorry I'm new at this so I'm still learning, thank you guys for all your help.

Paste the script from line 680 to 710 and mark line 695.

Is 'metz' in text\imperial_campaign...?

Well I found one bug, in the script for Exeter
monitor_conditions I_SettlementOwner Exeter = byzantium
change_settlement_name Exeter Isca_Dumnoniorum
terminate_monitor
end_monitor
I notced in expanded.txt Isca_Dumnoniorum was missing the underscore. So I was wrong about 695 being the line for metz it was for Exeter. However after fixing that it's still not working now the log is saying

It this sort of thing common when creating long scripts?

[Gigantus]

I am afraid that can happen when you try to implement repetitive scripts like this one. Simply writing a name in small letters instead of capitalizing it is enough to cause an error. Or the expanded.txt file (or imperial_campaign...) got changed without keeping this script in mind.

[KillerBee256]

I looked over the scipt and cut it after the offending line and it works, it only leaves out 8 of the cities or so. So I've been going throught and looking for bugs in the small part of script I cut out and I can't find any. So now I'm wondering if there is a limit to how many cities one can use this script on. Do you guys know if any one has tried a script as long as mine?

[Ishan]

I haven't used such a big script but it will run for sure don't worry.

Hello

I dont understand a thing...
with the city rename script..

so i dont understand, which name i have to write in the first line, and in the second line..

is it the name within the brackets (in the text file ) or the one without the brackets ?
i also wrote it into expanded.txt, so thats not the problem, but which name to put in the script..

monitor_conditions I_SettlementOwner Adana = turks
change_settlement_name Adana Ulumbeke
end_monitor

this is just fantasy script... but i marked the two, where i dont know, which name to take, and what to write in expanded.txt...

can someone explain this script bit more detailed for me i tried several variations, but it didnt work..

[nessj999]

i tried all variations now, ingame name, descr_regions name, and in both ways..
but when i conquer it, it does not work !

im a hopeless scripter

[Swagger]

monitor_conditions SettlementTurnStart I_SettlementOwner Adana = turks
change_settlement_name Adana Ulumbeke
end_monitor

[nessj999]

You need to post what you have entered in your script.
