I haven't used that one myself but from memory it only fires during turn end. So it won't fire during a turn when the update actually happens, if that's what you're after.

no, it doesn't work at all...

Why not do the same via script?

**SpyrosM91** · November 24, 2011, 01:27 PM

for the obvious reason: there isn't a "factionStanding" command in the scipts.....

Docudemons has it...

Code:

  Identifier:   set_faction_standing   
      
  Parameters:   faction, faction, amount   
      
  Description:   Changes first faction's standing towards second faction.   
      
  Sample use:   set_faction_standing England France -0.8   
      
  Class:   SET_FACTION_STANDING

hmmm strange... i had read the entire "command" sheet, but i missed that.... thanks! (+rep, when i can)

but, why the code i have in the descr_faction_standing doesn't work??? because this is not a "perfect" solution for the problem... eg. i have to write about 40 (yes, fourty..

) lines of commands, instead of just two... + other problems that i will have to face....

What are you trying to do?

i want to change a faction's standings to orthodox and catholic factions, when this faction and the papal_states become allies (+ an event counter is 1)...

SpyrosM91: My suspicion is that the ‘UpdateAttitude’ event may not work in the ‘descr_faction_standing’ file. If you want to change a faction’s standing with Catholic and Orthodox factions when they sign an alliance with the Pope, you should only need to do this:

it doesnt work either..... but does it have anything to do with the fact that i'm forcing an alliance through scripting: "console_command diplomatic_stance byzantium papal_states Allied" ???

PS: in the commands of that style " FactionStanding target_faction normalise 1.0 20", what do the last numbers represent??

Try:

Code:

Trigger blahh
    WhenToTest FactionTurnStart

    Condition DiplomaticStanceWithNewPope = Allied
    and I_EventCounter event1 = 1

    FactionStanding religion catholic 0.6
    FactionStanding religion orthodox -0.5
