SOE AI Guard events with #TRIGGER= 0

[DarkHorse2]

Hey guys,

A number of your AI\Guard.txt events have a #TRIGGER= 0

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\SteamApp\steamapps\common\Strategic Command WWII War in Europe\Campaigns\_1939 Storm over Europe\Scripts\AI\guard.txt (4 hits)
	Line 3415: #TRIGGER= 0
	Line 3449: #TRIGGER= 0
	Line 3483: #TRIGGER= 0
	Line 3517: #TRIGGER= 0

I am aware that, under certain conditions, the #TRIGGER may be ignored. But I am not sure that is the case here:

Ah... here it is...

#TRIGGER is ignored when "#TYPE= 0", but that is not the case in what is occuring in "Guard.txt".

; #TYPE= Value range [0, 3]
; Event check type, with all other fields satisfied:
; 0 = Single check, on or after #DATE
; (ignores #TRIGGER)
; 1 = Multiple checks, on or after #DATE, until #TRIGGER is satisfied
; 2 = Multiple checks, on or after #DATE, until end of game (*** not valid for UNIT events ***)
; (not removed from event queue)
; 3 = Single check, only on #DATE

Thank you and we'll get this fixed as well.
