RegionIsOneOf for ancillary - no go?

[Gigantus]

I am trying to define a trigger for an ancillary where the character (a merchant) has to be in specific region for two rounds at least.
The example underneath does not work in that form, but it fires without "RegionIsOneOf".

WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition AgentType = merchant
and not EndedInSettlement
and IsRegionOneOf Region_Name
and TimeInRegion > 2
AcquireAncillary Ancillary_Name chance 100

Any ideas on how to handle it?

[Swagger]

WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition AgentType = merchant
and not EndedInSettlement
and TimeInRegion > 2
AcquireAncillary Ancillary_Name chance 100

this should do it (just remove that line)

It works but requires the region_id (number). I have found that it doesn't matter whether or not you add the name too, but the name alone doesn't work.

WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition AgentType = merchant
and not EndedInSettlement
and IsRegionOneOf Region_ID
and TimeInRegion > 2
AcquireAncillary Ancillary_Name chance 100

I hope that wasn't sarcastic:

@konny
Curious, it works only with the region name in the script. Will try just with the number.

Don't know for the script, but I use it frequently that way in EDA

EndedInSettlement + IsRegionOneOf 71, 123, 99

and the like. This saves me from making one trigger for each settlement. It definitly works.

Have I misread this, or can I write a single trigger like such...

WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition AgentType = merchant
and not EndedInSettlement
and IsRegionOneOf 99, 123, 50
and TimeInRegion > 2
AcquireAncillary Ancillary_Name chance 100

Checking for EITHER regions 99, 123, or 50?

sorry i missed that line :S


i dont have the ''RegionIsOneOf'' condition/event on my docudemons... why do you have it?

[Gigantus]

It worked for the EDA, thanks a lot.
I usually prefer the region name as it is a pain defining the Region IDs. No problem if it is just for two or three, after that it gets tedious. (And working with Geomod you might just shuffle the order in the descr_regions file)

Oh wait, are you able to define region IDs with Geomod? We have the problem that I have coded hundreds of titles based on those region IDs, but now changing anything on the map throws about those numbers.

[Swagger]

oh ok, i still use the old one

[Gigantus]

One has to go with the times, how else can one be glad?

[Gigantus]

No, you can't determine region ids with Geomod, it is determined by the order in the descr_regions file. But you can shuffle the order in the descr_regions file with Geomomd. That is needed for the definition of the starting capital:
Geomod takes the first city of the faction in descr_regions and puts it at the beginning of the city list in descr_strat, thereby making it the capital. Only way to beat that, is to move the desired settlement (region) in the list (descr_region) sufficiently toward the top of the list. Personally, I put all the capitals into the first slots of descr_regions, then I start with those traits and triggers.

[GrnEyedDvl]

No, you can't determine region ids with Geomod, it is determined by the order in the descr_regions file.

Actually I think region_id is based on how the map is created. The top left corner will always be region 0. Then it moves left on the top row, when it hits a new region it gives it a new region_id. Then it moves to the next row down and again goes left to right.

[Gigantus]

That is correct.

[konny]

Yup, this is very helpful when you have a trait or ancillary to be acquired in several settlements or provinces, so you don't need to make a trigger for each of it (also works the other way round, of course).

[Theodotos I]

I've done a lot of work with a regional combat mod based on this.

[Gigantus]

Just checked - it is correct.

Which means that once the regions on the map are established, no shuffling in descr_regions or descr_strat will change the Region_ID order. Only changing of the region border or the region itself will do that. That should give relief!
