HI,

I can't understand how the #LINK= parameter works in a Script Decision.
To test it I made 4 elementary scripts.
In the first script the Decision events 901 takes the value 1
This script is followed by 3 Decision events 902 scripts, each with different trigger conditions #LINK= 901[0], #LINK= 901[1], #LINK= 0[0].
But only the script #LINK= 0[0] is triggered.

Someone understands how the #LINK= parameter works ?

here is the code :

{
#NAME= Décision AI 901[1]
#POPUP=
#MESSAGE=
#IMAGE=
#SOUND=

#FLAG= 1

#TYPE= 2
; 2 = Sera tenté à chaque tour

#AI= 2
#LEVEL= 0

#COUNTRY_ID= 45

#TRIGGER= 100

#DISPLAY_ORDER= 1
#GV= 1[1,100]

#LINK= 0[0]
; 0[0] = Script toujours Activé

#DECISION= 901

#MPP_UPDOWN= 0

#MPP_TEXT=

#AI_RESPONSE= 100

The Previous image wasn't the good one
this one is correct

It is one of the conditions that needs to be met for a script to fire, along with any others set.

So if Decision 901 is the decision script:

If DE 902 has #LINK= 901[1] then the response to DE 901 has to be YES for it to fire.
If it has #LINK= 901[0] then the response has to be NO for DE 902 to fire, if all other conditions are met.

Is that what you mean?

HI,

yes you are right.

All options except the #LINK= parameter are dummy conditions.
The first script sets decision 901 to 1 (true)
As confirmed by the message LINK= 0[0] -----> 901[1] = True
From the line #AI_RESPONSE_POPUP= LINK= 0[0] -----> 901[1] = True
But if in the following script we test the value 901 by the line #LINK= 901[1] (the other conditions are dummy conditions) The script does not trigger.
It also does not trigger with condition #LINK= 901[0] (the other conditions are dummy conditions)
So with dummy conditions we have a script that does not trigger with #LINK= 901[0] or #LINK= 901[1].

I don't see how to explain this result.

You have #COUNTRY_ID= 45 (Axis, Germany) and #AI= 2 (AI games and only on Allied turn). I suspect it might work on #AI= 1 (AI games on Axis turn) but I haven't checked it.

Hello El Condor,

there are two scripts that work with #AI= 2 and #COUNTRY_ID= 45 so I don't think the problem comes from those conditions.
