priest character traits please help!

**sputnik** · January 17, 2011, 04:46 AM

I am trying to create a script in export_descr_character_traits. I would like to have Scottish catholic priests that visit my new region Stornoway to have +1 piety. This is to reflect visiting the Iona monastery. This is my script which has had no impact in-game:

;------------------------------------------
Trigger Priest_Visit_Iona
WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition CharacterReligion catholic
and AgentType = priest
and IsRegionOneOf 102 Stornoway_Province
and FactionType scotland
and TimeInRegion > 1
and Trait PriestCatholicDoctrine = 0
Affects PriestCatholicDoctrine 1 Chance 100
;------------------------------------------

is this script right? if so which other scripts should i edit and how?

and IsRegionOneOf 102 Stornoway_Province

Use either the ID number (can vary if you add new regions) or the name (is fixed) of the region.

and Trait PriestCatholicDoctrine = 0

this line isn't really needed, else everything looks fine

Im afraid it still doesnt work

This is my script entries:

export_descr_character_traits:

;------------------------------------------
Trait PriestVisitIona
Characters priest

Level PriestVisitIona
Description PriestVisitIona_desc
EffectsDescription PriestVisitIona_effects_desc
Threshold 1
Effect Purity 1
;------------------------------------------

;------------------------------------------
Trigger Priest_Visit_Iona
WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition CharacterReligion catholic
and AgentType = priest
and IsRegionOneOf Stornoway_Province
and FactionType scotland
and TimeInRegion > 1
Affects PriestVisitIona 1 Chance 100
;------------------------------------------

export_descr_vnvs_enums:

PriestVisitIona
PriestVisitIona_desc
PriestVisitIona_effects_desc

export_vnvs

{PriestVisitIona} Pilgrimage to Iona
{PriestVisitIona_desc} This priest has visited the renowned monastery on Iona and has witnessed some of the finest religous documents in Western Christendom.
{{PriestVisitIona_desc}_effects_desc} +1 Purity

?

Only error I can see: {{PriestVisitIona_desc}_effects_desc} +1 Purity

It would take more then one round for the priest to get the trait:
1. arrival in the first round
2. stay in the second round = presence equals one round
3. stay in the third round round = presence is more then one round (and TimeInRegion > 1)
4. can leave the region in the fourth round with the trait

Have you tried using Squid's Trait checker with this? ATVTW - Trait/Ancillary Validator

Thanks, clearly i missed that error.

Still not working

I have tried using the Trait checker but im working on Sicilian Vespers mod and there is an error as export_advice.txt is missing and it wont proceed.

Just grab a converted export_advice.txt and you should be good to go.

**sputnik** · January 21, 2011, 06:50 PM

where can i find this?

**irishron** · January 21, 2011, 07:04 PM

In the data\text folder after you have used the string.bin convertor in cojunction with Python 2.5.

**Squid** · January 21, 2011, 09:41 PM

or python 2.6

Thanks.

I have some other more pressing scripting issues in another thread. Once i get these out the way I will try with the advice you have all gave and let you know the outcome.
