Deleting a building with a script

[chrisb]

Hello,

I wonder if it is possible to delete a building using a command in a script in BI? It would be pretty much the opposite of create_building command. So far I have not found something relevant in bi_docs. There is of course set_building_health, but if I set it to zero, it just "paints the building red" in the settlement view, instead of removing it (which is pretty natural).

Why would I need it? I'm using a building to indicate a specific "state of affairs", so that a particular state is remembered after saving and reloading the game (when all counters have been reset). I know that similar "memory" can be created with e.g. traits of a character, but in this case a building would be cooler.

It isn't possible.

What if you script in a building that has a different religion effect? I know that's unlikely to be helpful, but building one frequently destroys another.

Thanks guys (both of you)! I was afraid it wouldn't be easy, but I may take a look at Quinn's suggestion later. I'm just not familiar with modding religions.

You're quite welcome. It can be bloody hard and isn't practical in the vast majority of cases (I certainly don't use it), but it's technically possible. If you look a couple of years ago in this forum, somebody (CaesarVincens?) and I got into a conversation about it.
