add_money not working

[Danya82]

I want to check if AI will get money, so decided to use my faction and made the script:

monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart not IsFactionAIControlled
if I_CompareCounter turn_fid = 10 (turn_fid 10 it's my faction turn)
and I_TurnNumber = 0
add_money russia 10000
end_if
end_monitor

But money not add, what's wrong?

[Callistonian]

Try using:

console_command add_money russia, 10000

You should also check to make sure your turn_fid counter is being set correctly for russia's turn. I'm also suspicious of the turn 0 condition. I don't use it myself. If the intention is for this money script to fire as soon as russia's first turn starts, then you don't need the two turn conditions at all. Just say:

monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType russia
and not IsFactionAIControlled
...

I use GrnEyedDevil 12 turns per yer script with all features. I wanted to give money AI each year, using counter month (noy sure i completely understand, how it works) or using just I_TurnNumber condition, becouse i thought that counting begin from first turn. I decide to check will it work or no, giving money my(LocalFaction), but tried all ways, i didn't get result, i can't give money my faction. But the purpose is give AI money regularly. Can you, please, explain me, what i have to do.

Increase the King's purse in the descr_strat for the factions you want to have more money ... That will give them more money every turn.

[Danya82]

Thanks for the answer, but is there are any way to give money through some periods (if 12 turns per year, year for example)? But, i hope it will help

[Alondite]

I think you can just increase the King's purse (+10000) of the target faction, then decrease it (-10000) after 12 turns, for example, so everything only occurs in that period.

[Danya82]

Why money not added to my faction?

monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType russia
and not IsFactionAIControlled
if I_TurnNumber == 1 (or if I_CompareCounter month ==1)
add_money russia 10000
end_if
end_monitor

It requires you to have set up event_counters which log the seasons and who's turn it is (useful for all sorts of things), but here's an example of a spring money boost in EBII:

    monitor_event FactionTurnStart TrueCondition
        and I_EventCounter ecSpring > 0				; spring is in the air - ie after the winter recruitment glut
        and Treasury < 5000                            ; faction is low on funds

I aready interested, it's medieval engine that's you can't add money your faction

[QuintusSertorius]

    monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType russia
        and not I_IsFactionAIControlled russia
        if I_TurnNumber == 1 (or if I_CompareCounter month ==1)
            add_money russia 10000
        end_if
    end_monitor

You've missed the I_ and faction (in red above).

[Alondite]

There are absolutely no such limit.

Use the command:

console_command add_money 10000

It will add 10000 money to the player faction.

If you're not sure whether it's the problem of monitor trigger or command, try to call a historic event. If the historic event is shown but money not added, it means that command doesn't work. If you cannot even see the historic event, it means that your trigger and conditions have some error.

monitor_event [whatever]
    historic_event it_works
    console_command add_money 10000
end_monitor

in historic_events.txt:

{IT_WORKS_BODY}Triggers and conditions are correct!
{IT_WORKS_TITLE}Triggers and conditions are correct!

[Callistonian]

    monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType russia
        and not I_IsFactionAIControlled russia
        if I_TurnNumber == 1 (or if I_CompareCounter month ==1)
            add_money russia 10000
        end_if
    end_monitor

You've missed the I_ and faction (in red above).

IsFactionAIControlled is a valid event condition when the event exports the faction ID (which PreFactionTurnStart does). You don't need the I_ condition but either will work.

[Danya82]

It's not work

[Lusitanio]

Try console_command add_money, 10000

[Danya82]

i did

[QuintusSertorius]

What does your script look like now?

[Danya82]

I deleted it becouse i tried all ways, i don't know, may be i missing something

[Danya82]

Someone ever tried to give money his faction. I tried (if i no mistaked) all variants - to check will it work with the AI:

monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType russia
and not (I_)IsFactionAIControlled russia (FactionIsLocal)
If I_CompareCounter month ==(=) 1 (if I_TurnNumber ==(=) 1
(console_command) add_money russia 10000
end_if
end_monitor

In brackets all variants, that's i tried. So why i can't add money to my faction, where is mistake? Or it's impossible?

[QuintusSertorius]

It clearly isn't "impossible" when virtually every mod has a finance script giving money to AI factions. I posted an example of something that works in my mod.

[Danya82]

I've got the working script through the GrnEyedDevil's 12 turns per year:

monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionIsLocal ; set the season for each month
if I_CompareCounter month == 1 ;January
if not I_IsFactionAIControlled russia
console_command add_money russia, 20000
end_if
and I_CompareCounter winter_severity == 1 ; normal winter
console_command season winter
historic_event month_1
end_if

The question: will the counter month work for the AI? There are FactionIsLocal in monitor. Or i have to use historic_event month_1?.. For purpose to give AI money each year. And why not work I_TurnNumber
