Laws & Decrees

Playing as GB I have a Law & Decree: "opt_tile_cmn__money to CSC".

There is nothing else - no information or Selection of icon available.
Must be important to allies and self :confused:

It concerns British options only. It is supposed to be present in the last patch. When you say "nothing", do you mean no image (only) or nothing at all (just a text without explanations and without image/button to select it)?

Thanks for prompt reply.

Just the text only no image/button or explanation.

I think the text you have shown may be incorrect. I cannot find it anywhere in the game files. Also, the game never used strings of text with spaces in them for designating references to texts to be displayed.

Please check it again an post the exact text as displayed in the game. For example, I'm fairly sure it says 'opt_title_CMN_Moneyto...' and not ..'tile'..

You are correct, I mistyped "title".
Took a screenshot but have forgotten how to attach :bonk: Must check up.

Presume yet another item for patching!

With the current forum configuration, you can only add attachments, which pictures are if you upload them here, in the AAR, Mods, and Technical Support sub-forums.

The only way to post a picture currently is described here: How To Make Screenshots and Post them in a Thread

Thank you, Captain Orso, for the explanation.

Thanks. As posted above, it was a typing error.
Do you know what this Decree enables if only it would correctly appear? Sorry to continue with this but I feel that this is important to GB and fellow MP players.

Thanks again.

If you give me the original text string, I can search for it. Having just part of the string is of little use.

I already know that there are no spaces in the names of AGEod text references, so "opt_tile_cmn__money to CSC" cannot simply be "opt_title_cmn__money to CSC", and I have already searched for "opt_title_CMN_MoneytoCSC" and it doesn't exist.

There are a large number of text-names beginning with "opt_title_CMN_Moneyto.."; but which one?

Thanks for prompt reply.

String: opt_title_CMN_MoneytoCSC.
The string only is showing as item 6/8. :confused:

I cannot find any reference to 'opt_title_CMN_MoneytoCSC' in the game files :(

What patch level do you have installed? You can see the patch level while starting the game in the lower right hand corner, or from the main menu open the Credits window and it's at the top of the pop-up window.

I wasn't going to suggest that. I wanted to know if I needed to install a different patch level to look for your string, but I already have 1.02 installed.

Can you post the .hst file from the scenario at a date where you see the text? Thanks.

Well, I'm at a total loss. I see the option in the hst file

Code: Select all

5031|1&0&Event-Img_Opt_PayRecruits.png&opt_title_CMN_MoneytoCSC&opt_desc_CMN_MoneytoCSC&opt_hint_CMN_MoneytoCSC&0&0&0&2500&0&0&0&0&0&NULL&NULL&NULL&NULL&NULL&GBR_MoneytoCSC&0&0&0&0&0&1&0&0&NULL&0&NULL&NULL&NULL&NULL&NULL&|

and the events in the EventState section

Code: Select all

  Name=evt_nam_GBR_MoneytoCSC_On
  Occurences=1
  MaxOccurs=1
  {/EventState}
  {EventState}
  Name=evt_nam_GBR_MoneytoCSC_OFF
  Occurences=0
  MaxOccurs=0
  {/EventState}
  {EventState}
  Name=evt_nam_GBR_MoneytoCSC_AIActivate
  Occurences=0
  MaxOccurs=999
  {/EventState}
  {EventState}
  Name=evt_nam_GBR_MoneytoCSC
  Occurences=0
  MaxOccurs=999
  {/EventState}
  {EventState}
  Name=evt_nam_GBR_MoneytoCSC_Regen
  Occurences=0
  MaxOccurs=999

but I can find no reference to them in the game files.
For example, in the first code section above, the option definition uses the graphic 'Event-Img_Opt_PayRecruits.png', but this doesn't exist.

Could it be that you started this scenario at an earlier patch level?
