Making a new EVENT/DILEMMA, having issues!
Hello, as the title suggests i am in the process of trying to make a new dilemma/event for the Warriors of Chaos faction.
The idea is simple, a dilemma is to be triggered by the condition that 3 battles have been won. This will give you a window with 4 choices, one for each god of the pantheon of Chaos, with different bonuses.
After some tries, having disabled the "GEN_CND_MIN_BATTLES_WON" in the "cdir_events_dilemma_option_junctions_tables" to see if it would proc at all ive had a rudimentary sucess as shown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdXBV5X7L-4
The problem here are twofold. Firstly, i cannot make the conditions stick to the dilemma, it now just procs every single turn instead despite me having added in stuff like "CND_ROUNDS_UNTIL_NEXT" "VAR_DELAY_MAX" "VAR_DELAY_MIN", it just won't listen to any of them. According to the table "cdir_events_options_tables" which lists what all the conditions do, "CND_ROUNDS_UNTIL_NEXT" is "Specify the number of ROUNDS that must elapse before the SAME EVENT can be GENERATED again. The EVENT cannot be UNIQUE." So that should be it, but it just ignores it.
Secondly, i cannot get all four choices to appear, it sticks with the same 2 choice window when what i really need is the Beastmen Moon Window or Grombrindal's Ancestor Window, that can support 4 choices. Im not sure if its locked by CA in some way but it is annoying for sure. It should be in the "dilemmas_tables" where you set what kind of ui_image you get when it pops but once again it keeps ignoring any changes i make there and goes back to 2 choices, the same image every single time.
I can live with the latter not working, i'd just weave in another event with two further options, popping up alternatingly with the first event so you get access to both. I feel im missing something obvious here, but i have no idea what.
That is why im here, im looking for someone who knows how theese things work more accurately so theres less fumbling around in the dark.
I'll add the mod via dropbox here if you want to have a look at it yourself, currently all the tables are unchanged from the data_core default because im in testing mode. I have also not deleted all the other vanilla values so to look for my event you'll need to scroll down to the bottom of every table. They are all following the dilemma key of "wh_main_chs_favour_of_the_gods".
