Hi

This is not a bug. However i was wondering if someone (Vic) could help me with the programming of my victory event. It works al right. Only problem is when Germany have a major victory they also get the message that announces they have a victory, and that they have a minor victory. So there is basicly three messages. Here is the code. What can i do to change it.

sincerely

Tomas

tempvar1=0
 
if x<20 then
tempvar1=1
setmessage
end if
&nbsp;
if x<40 then
if tempvar1=0 then
tempvar1=1
setmessage
end if
end if
&nbsp;
if x>40 then
if tempvar1=0 then
tempvar1=1
setmessage
end if
end if
&nbsp;
kind regards,
Vic

Mhh, the original code has 4 Checks, but 5 EndCheck.
&nbsp;
And i think the first two checks can be true (<20 and <40 could be 18),
so this would give two messages.
The "BlockEvent" you added will probably let the whole event run only one time,
but not stop immediately. But i´m not sure here.
&nbsp;
Vics solution works. Would have done it similar, but with one seperate tempvar for each victory condition.
Vics way is better.

So. What kind of tempvar should you use. A "check" event?
&nbsp;
Also these "if" do they mean execevents? i am really sorry, but i am really crappy at programming. Could someone show it in code?`
&nbsp;
&nbsp;

IF X means your CheckDifferenceInDays.
&nbsp;
tempvar1=1 means you have to use the Setvar command.
&nbsp;
The event engine is for beginner not easy to master.
I learned it by studying existing events.
Good luck

Thanks. Its not that im stupid really. Ive just never had an interest in programming, but i do have an interest in AT, so the 2 clash.
&nbsp;
Also it doesnt make it easier when you guys use codes that arent in the manual. But im getting better.

Well, here is my new attempt. It didnt work. For some reason Germany had a major victory imediatly. I almost feel ready to give up unless there is some easy change to be made.

If its to difficult i will copy the event from the gothic line scenario instead, although it doesnt differentiate betwen minor and major victories.

Hi Grymme,
&nbsp;
Yes the scripter is a crime for non-coders.
&nbsp;
But i think you will fix your event by
&nbsp;
A) just replacing the CHECK tempvar1 == tempvar0 by CHECK tempvar1 == 0
&nbsp;
B) enclosing the whole code with a checkgamewinner == 0 (if germany is regime 0)
&nbsp;
kind reg,
vic

@Grymme
I don`t work with blockevent.I take than in your case three events.I think this is better for debuging.

Dumb question:

Is there an implied '=to' in these if statements ?

What if X=40 ?

In the end i skipped this event, it was to much for me to code. Instead i went with copying the victory event in the "gothic line" scenario. It seems to work fine.
&nbsp;
Thanks for the help anyways though.
