Ideas to enhance general scripts

**Druvatar De Bodemloze** · December 12, 2009, 02:11 PM

hi all'
I do have the know-how-myself
but am working on learning but I think:
I would like too incoporate in my mod a script which triggers a historic event
(just like when your told a pirincess has come age or regent has been appointed
in the major mods like DLV and SS)
whenever these things happen anywhere:

1. a settlement is converted to a castle
2. a settlement rebels
3. ports are commisioned
4. a faction has expanded to 5 or more settlements under thier command
thank you

those should all be very simple to do

Time to introduce you to the Docudemons, I think. It is an Excel spreadsheet with a lot of stuff listed. Scripting commands, events and other things to enlighten the novice.

I will learn but this is a horribly written document! there is no introduction ( which explains where you need to make your entries, overall this document is usless ! for someone like myself ! being the only "real" propenant of my mod)(job for a scripter not a mod leader)
but thanks and again no thanks

Horribly written? Ouch! I might have to go cry now!

Its just a reference tool, its not designed to be a tutorial. All my tutorial stuff is in threads. If I had included stuff like that in the file then it would be 100 megs or more in size, though there are a few sample scripts included.

I have posted extensively in the area of scripting, and have released several full blown scripts that can be dropped into any mod. 90% of my work in that area can be found here, and I also suggest you look up Alpaca's scripting stuff. Between the two of us there is a TON of scripting info out there.

It isn't exactly for beginners, I admit.

The first three tabs are for commands, conditions and events

Examples
Events: GeneralCaptureSettlement

Conditons:
SettlementName

Commands:
historic_event

Which would go into a monitor like this:

monitor_event GeneralCaptureSettlement
and SettlementName Rome
historic_event Rome_has_fallen
end_monitor

Once you know how, it isn't that difficult

GiGantus` I understand what your saying! but my point is I think ( I have proven, A serious commitment to my mod) and I haved learned alot and more to learn! no problem but example I have done faction describtions for L`O I mean ex but when I asked for scripts the answer was "why should I" so it seems I am on my own! my mod has seen more progress and work than more than half of what is "hosted" but I was declined nonetheless...........................

lol

i'm not here to flame this, but you asked me to make scripts that give much more trouble than to make some goddamn descriptions everyone can do

and right after i posted my post (see 2nd post on this thread) i heard this of you

so just do those scripts I posted in the workshop for me forget the ones I spoke of before

that wasn't much cordial to ask, specially when you seem to be demanding

so why haven`t you?

I think you mis-interpret I was going on the presummption we had reached an agreement already and since these are more easier than the others I suggested I thought I was making a better offer
sorry you disagree

**Druvatar De Bodemloze** · December 13, 2009, 01:05 PM

sorry GiGantus and Greeneyed` you are both right

**Druvatar De Bodemloze** · December 13, 2009, 05:01 PM

monitor_event SettlementConverted
and SettlementName pisa
historic_event Castle_comissioned
end_monitor

this would be my castle event correct
(and I would repeat this for every Settlement)
thank you
