Missions stop triggering after small change in campaign_script

**R.P. Gryphus** · March 14, 2020, 08:14 PM

As the title says, I've made some changes in the text file and it seem to prevent missions to triggers. It does that to every faction even though the modifications concern only the Cao clan.

Here are the original lines first and then the modded one :

Code:

Thank you! Now I need a break, been working on my submod all day!

PS : And in case you might wonder, I did add the names to the faction list of name.

Always get a warm, fuzzy feeling seeing my scripts being worked on

The question here is: does the script run at all? The appearance of the radar map restriction would be an indication of that.
If you set the log to trace you may get something useful by way of what was processed last.

The bodyguard units are fine, the names are from the 'venice' faction so simply copying them to 'france' will suffice. Can't see anything obvious so I would suggest to comment out the trait lines to see if the issue lies there.

"The appearance of the radar map restriction would be an indication of that."

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by that. ^^

"comment out the trait lines"

What do you mean by that exactly? ^^

Here's is the log :

Oh, I must have miss it in the log, but it seems it's caused by the male attribute. It is used in descr_strat, not in campaign_script for family tree. ^^ When I find myself in these situation, I feel my avatar picture is most accurate.

**Gigantus** · March 22, 2020, 10:28 PM

Glad you found it.

Just for info then: the radar map restriction is shown by default and requires a line in the script to remove it. Hence the appearance of that radar restriction indicates a failure of the script:

'Commenting' is done by putting a semi-colon in front of a line of code, the semi-colon stops the game from reading anything beyond it. It is called 'commenting' as this method is used by coders\scripters to add information to their code\script.
