Event Help

Hello,

I cannot seem to get this event to fire.

Here is picture of Colonists in Norfolk.

Any help appreciated!

How often did you test the event?

Two remarks I noticed (not sure this is the reason)

* You have no start date for event, you should make one (you screen shows 1745 as a date, but I wonder if, in absence of date, internal engine date starts before 1750)
* You have only 1 occurence, may be increase it to 2 (because if you are unluncky, the kill attempt of settlers does not occur in 25% of the time )

My 2 cents

Okay,

Changed code slightly (see attached) and event fires off.

The Militia units is formed, loyolty change executed, but the error I get on creating a structure is strange, says I am trying to build in the sea!

From ScriptReport.txt:
Line 24: => ApplyCreateStruc command Structure cannot be build in a sea.

I have $Norfolk, so why is that the sea?

Philippe,

I can put date in, don't really care as this event can fire anytime, and just once. Will try that next. Event did fire now. Just strange Sea error.

Essentially the kill on the Colonist is 75% for that unit to be used up and changed to Militia. So, it is a bonus to player if Colonist is not killed off, as then he discovers settlement and gets a militia, and then can use his Colonist again.

I had no examples on CreateStruc, so I change code to mimic an example from 1755-1763 Campaign where Norwich Settlement is founded.

WIA code was modified to allow turn dates as early as 1600.

AFAIK, all othe AGE engine games have a 1750 earliest start date limit....

Any ideas on this?

Upload all the reports from Scripts folder and all logs from Logs folder. I may have some time to look at it today

[paw1776]

Lodi,

Here is scripts stuff.

Lodi,

Here is scripts stuff.

Where?

[paw1776]

Duh! Will have to reload tonight.

[paw1776]

Here they are!

[lodilefty]

Try adding
SelectRegion = $Norfolk

just before the command to create the settlement...

sometimes the game engine loses track of 'where'....

[paw1776]

Lodi!

That did it mate!

I am on my way now.

Thx for all the help!!!!!!!!!!
