Bug Fixes for SS6.4- DO NOT POST ANY BUGS IN HERE

[Used2BRoz]

Thanks for this Meloo.
I have updated the OP to show current version number.

As Meloo has indicated he won't be doing any more on this, I can add any further fixes to the OP.
Note : I'll just be collecting them as a simple data folder which you drop into the SS6.3 folder to replace existing files.

[Melooo182]

Hey Melooo - good work,
downloaded and compared with the old files - because of possible translation work and that small submod im working on. In the early campaign_script i saw:

    if I_IsFactionAIControlled mongols
    and I_EventCounter mongols_invasion > 0
    and I_FactionLeaderAttribute teutonic_order Command < 999
    and I_NumberOfHeirs mongols < 4
    and I_CompareCounter heir_mongols < 3

Don´t know if the teutonic_order thing will cause issues...

yeah that's indeed a mistake, should be and I_FactionLeaderAttribute mongols Command < 999

[Fred Putz]

Almost forgot - there´s still the monitor missing around the seljuk first turn AI reinforcements early and late if the player is byzantium. It starts with the "if". Have already changed it in my script - saw it while doing the great peoples ancillaries now.

[Used2BRoz]

I'm playing as Norway with SS6.4 with bugfix 1.27 compilation.
(Well it says 1.27 on the splash screen )

Early days but no CTDs yet
(Damn those Scots - they turn up unannounced with a huge army outside my only town.
I wouldn't mind but the English are defeating them in Scotland.)

@Meloo what do you want to do about any errors people spot - release hotfixes ?

[gsthoed]

There is no monitor, but it's not missing

saw it while doing the great peoples ancillaries now.

They are in descr_events

@Meloo what do you want to do about any errors people spot - release hotfixes ?

i suppose some addendums/hotfixes will do fine, i'll put the links in post #13
eventually i'll re-release 1.27 bugfree.

saw it while doing the great peoples ancillaries now.

They are in descr_events

yup, works much better like that.

[gsthoed]

Congatulations Melooo182 for the release of version 1.27. One bug report, in early campaign:

18:05:25.187 [script.err] [error] Script Error in ../../GAMES/Stainless Steel 6.4/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/descr_strat.txt, at line 5807, column 107
 you have chosen an invalid tile(338, 107) for Bertrand de_Toulouse (jerusalem)

In 338,107 is the tile north of Antioch and it is not a valid "foot" one.

About "Historical Crusader States Script pt2": When these generals are off_map, they can still die from old age. When they are dead and they come back though script, they do appear on map and with dead portrait. I did also a test in which "Raymond de_Toulouse" was starting at age 90 instead of 58. When we came back, he remained "ressurected" for one turn and next turn he died "by natural causes".

[Fred Putz]

Have seen that with the events - good idea. Didn´t know that the counter is set to 0 again if an event is fired the second time. At least i guess it works that way.

With the monitor - i meant this one:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

;---- Constantinople JIHAD garrison script

There´s an end monitor before and a start monitor after - so the monitor is not missing? How does it work? And if it works: would it be checked all the time?

[gsthoed]

Have seen that with the events - good idea. Didn´t know that the counter is set to 0 again if an event is fired the second time. At least i guess it works that way.

At the second time, it is set to 2. As long as the corrsponding trigger(s) in EDA is "and I_EventCounter countername = 1", it works similar to when it was set to 0.

There´s an end monitor before and a start monitor after - so the monitor is not missing? How does it work? And if it works: would it be checked all the time?

It is the same as declare_counter. It works only once, when the game still reads the CS and (if you don't block the CS at a point before the "if") before first PreFactionTurnStart. Just start a campaign, you'' ll see "Kasim" somewhere near Nicaea; remove this "if" and you'll see none.

[Melooo182]

@Fred: yeah it works, its only checked once, when the condition is true at the campaign starts and never more

BTW updated DL links with hotfixed version
so both errors pointed by Fred and gsthoed are fixed

[Battlefield]

Are campaign_script and descr_strat the only files that are changed in the hotfix?

[Melooo182]

Yeah which is good, but also means it's not savegame compatible :/

Also i started a new early campaign with the danes , only this bug fix compilation i am using, i want to ask how we can use 2 turns a year instead of 1/1.

Also about bug fixing:
1) Condition HasAncType can only be used in export_descr_ancillaries.txt. There are many traits that have this as condition.

[Used2BRoz]

@b0gia - if you install the bigix properly it should give you the 2TPY option in the option screen.

@Meloo - the Dublin garrison needs to moved to x31, y233 as that is where Dublin is now.
The Galway garrison needs to be deleted and replaced by a clone of the Dublin one, so that it also has Irish units in there.

Long time since I modded this but Inquisitors in 1100 ?
Inquisitions didn't start properly until much later in the 12th century.

For the bug you're getting, try reinstalling the bugfix, make sure to follow the instructions in the readme or post#13 of this thread.
as such description is in the export_vnvs.txt of both campaigns

HasAncType, seems to work just fine in the traits, never had issues with it...in fact i use it extensively in Titanium and no probs there.

Thanks for the imput anyway

Ok will do, is this for both campaigns?
About Inquisitors, not sure if that's a bug...but i'll take your suggestion for Titanium which is more concerned about historical accuracy.

No idea about the late campaign - never play it

thanks for reporting

however would you mind adding some spoiler tags to the log quote
and also provide additional info like which submods you were using etc?

Well you have right, i fought an ordinary battle and this happened. I am using only your compilation. I think it is a rare bug with Germanicu5 BAI.

[MuMu]

Thank you for your work, Melooo182!
I've been waiting for this.
I do not quite understand about the BAI 5.07... In 1.27 included some part of it?
