    Default Help with fixing Regicide payback

    Hi.

    I am having a problem. I was looking at this tutorial: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...faction+leader and trying to figure out how to fix the "regicide" mission so that success gives a major boost to your faction standing toward the target faction (and likewise, failure a penalty). But, I can't seem to get my head around it.

    All, I need to do is add the appropriate entries (corresponding to the null_paybacks in the desc. mission file) to the desc. faction standing file....

    But I don't know how to do it, have no way of testing it, and am afraid of breaking something.

    I hear some mods have fixed this. Can anyone provide me with simple instructions how to do the same?

    _____________________________________

    The desc_missions text is:

    payback_list faction_regicide_payback
    {
    reward
    {
    null_payback FACTION_STANDING_REWARD ;TBD add standing increase via export_descr_faction_standing.txt
    money 10000
    }
    penalty
    {
    null_payback FACTION_STANDING_PENALTY ;TBD add standing decrease via export_descr_faction_standing.txt
    }
    }

    (as you can see, it was never finished!)

    All I need is to understand how to format the corresponding desc. faction standing entries...

    _____________________________________________


    PS: I *think* the answer should look something like this:

    Trigger 0138_Sucess_Regicide_Mission

    WhenToTest LeaderMissionSuccess

    Condition PaybackID faction_regicide_payback

    FactionStanding target_faction 1.0


    ... but I have a lot of questions. How do I determine the name/number, to start with? (can I just make it up? since this mission already has text, is it something I can look up somewhere?) And what is "1.0" faction standing worth? (It would seem to be worth a lot, since incriments tend to be less than 1...) What would be a good value for this mission? I want a successful regicide to put you on good terms with the new ruler...

    As far as the trigger name, it can whatever you want as long as it isn't the same as another trigger name. I'm not sure about the points, but my guess would be it basically gives you either a significant boost or a perfect standing with the target faction.
