Small editor issue

Post by Grymme »

Hi

Here is a screenshot of what i think is at least a text error in the editor. Because there are no models in ATG and it doesnt open research it opens gamevar or regimevar.

Also i am wondering what this feature does?

Actually i just found what i think is another issue.

When i use "oldstyle message [depreciated]"-exec and i set the regime to recieve the message to 0 (regime1) then i get a error message. When i set it to 1 it works fine. Tried a workaround by setting it to a tempvar checking for turn but that didnt work either.

And also i can add a couple of questions while i am at it

1) Is it possible to combine checkhex type checks with check units so that the event only check units within the parameter defined by the checkhexes?

2) Does --=+ work in the editor? That is to say subtracting a negative number should increase the number.

I wanted to illustrate the issue with the actioncards i was talking about. So here is a screenshot showing the bug.

EDIT: turns out that i hadnt described the actioncard issue before. I had written a post but not posted it. The deal with the actioncards is that when you play an actioncard the actioncards shift so that the marked card does not correspond with the card shown in the closeup. This is a clear bug and its been there since AT times.

thanks for the reports Grymme.  As always!

As for the question: you can use those regime fields in statistics2 to set resource costs for building a specific location.

Yes and adding negative numbers is equal to subtracting.

as for the actioncard issue make sure you have a message pop up for each card that can be played then this will not happen.

Thanks for the workaround. However its not usefull in my current scenario since there are several actioncards that might have to be played 3-5 times each round and it would just become to tedious to have to watch the same message and click it away each time. I tried execing a message to neutral regimes but that didnt help.

Anyway, hope this issue is fixable for real.
