Lesson 1

**Pendragon** · June 21, 2009, 06:53 PM

I have a problem: My PC has crashed, it's the only Computer I have that will run TW. It should be fixed soon, but I'll be behind on the lessons.

**★Bandiera Rossa☭** · June 21, 2009, 08:21 PM

well here is my try.. I copied it from my campaign script in N++ so I do not know if formating is 100%

;Campaign Script
;Slurricane-for class (money scripts)
;script=

;add money to timurids if under 10k
monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType timurids
and not FactionIsLocal
and Treasury > 10000
console_command add_money timurids, 10000
end_monitor

;event money base for hre conflict
monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType hre
and not FactionIsLocal
and Treasury < 100000
console_command add_money hre, -10000
console_command add_money hre, -10000
console_command add_money hre, -15000
end_monitor

;Add money england
monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType england
and not FactionIsLocal
and Treasury < 2000
console_command add_money england, 10000
console_command add_money england, 10000
console_command add_money england, 10000
console_command add_money england, 10000
console_command add_money england, 10000
end_monitor

;mongol reduction

In the first two monitors your > and < are backwards, other than that it looks good.

**Killerbee** · June 22, 2009, 07:34 AM

It looks good , shouldn't give any errors or stuff

Only 1 note :

When you have 20.001 coins , you'll lose 19K , and all that rest is 1.001 coins

**Romanos IV** · June 22, 2009, 07:40 AM

Cool, isn't it?

**Killerbee** · June 22, 2009, 07:41 AM

Sure is

is it possible to have a port blocked event?

Edit: sorry just say the right tread for this question

It's a little small but I hope it's good.

Code:

;
;campaign script
;script

monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType france
 and FactionIsLocal
 and Treasury >1000
 console_command add_money england 10000
end_monitor

monitor_event FactionTurnEnd Faction Type poland
 and not FactionIsLocal
 and Treasury >100
 console_command add_money hre 2500
end_monitor

monitor-event FactionTurnStart FactionType hre
 and FactionIsLocal
 console_command add_money venice 900

end_script

There's a few issues with this one besides the one GED mentioned:

1) You commented out(with ; ) script at the top. That's a command that needs to run so the script is initialized, so the script in current form should never initialize.

2) You don't have the command wait_monitors above end_script.

3) In the second monitor you have Faction Type which should be FactionType (without spaces). Scripting is very particular about capitals and spaces and underscores. It's also very particular about exactly using the wording of the DocuDemon, you will find a few with mis-spelled words(like Seige), but you must use Seige as that's what it is registered as.

4) The conditions utilizing an operator(>, <, >=, <=, ==) should be separated on either side by a space, or it's possible the game will not parse it properly. So Treasury >100 should be Treasury > 100 and so on.

You also commented out script at the top of the file, and need to add wait_monitors between end_monitor and end_script at the end of the file.

There's no problem with using a Kingdoms command, I noted it for the benefit of other users who, if they don't use Kingdoms, should not be using that command in place of the console command.

Good except for two things, you're missing end_monitor on the last two monitors.

Good except you have an extra n(add_monney) on the second monitor.

-------------------------------------------------------

As an aside, I encourage all users to make sure their scripts work in-game. If they don't work, before telling us they don't work, go back through your scripts and see if you can find what's wrong with them. 9 times out of 10 your problem will be having misspelled an event, condition, or command. Double-check the DocuDemons for the exact spelling(including capitalization and underscores), insure you start and close off all your monitors, insure you start and end the script including wait_monitors, and insure that if you tried to play with a new condition the exports/requirements match up. We can keep pointing out the problems most of the time, but learning to be tolerable to debugging your own scripts after finding they don't work as intended, perhaps multiple times, is integral to being a good scripter.

After Lesson 1 I'm not going to point out these types of mistakes but will instead say how many mistakes there are, potentially where, and ask you to debug it. I'll still point out any issues that are of an advanced nature.

Sorry for (accidental) spamming

**Killerbee** · June 22, 2009, 08:52 AM

Too late AL

Still the issue that GED mentioned, last monitor should be monitor_event rather than monitor-event. Otherwise I don't see any problems.

 console_command add_money venice 900

Fixed, and sorry for being so slow today

Yes, that's fine. The only thing I see is two spaces after the first monitor_event, which I'm not sure if will cause issue or not, as I don't make a point of trying different formatting combination's. Anyways added you to the list as having completed Lesson 1.

**Stephan** · June 22, 2009, 10:48 AM

here is mine
in the naval blockade event there is still x and y, thats because we dont have the definitive position of the port yet.
