Campaign ruining bug will halt my total victory?

[Fluvius Camillus]

Fellow EB'ers,

Currently I am trying to achieve total victory as the Pahlava, which is almost done. However I fear I will be running into an inevatible CTD...

The problem I am facing is each time I reactivate the script, the next turn it will activate some kind of dummy victory (which the advisor is currently proclaiming). The problem is, it will spawn a victory building in Gawjam~Skandzawarjoz (the Vanilla barracks with white background, which also is present in Tuat).

The problem I fear is that the script will keep spawning these buildings every turn I play where I have to reactivated the script. I have heard of games ending in inevitable CTD's because the building is spawned so much it will make the game crash (max buildings or something).

I know this is not your everyday situation, but can someone tell me if I have already set the track for an inevatible CTD or not? And if so, can I do something about it?

Thank you for your time! ~D

Go to your EB\data\scripts\show_me\ folder and open the EBBS.txt file.

Then search for "PAHLAVA Victory Conditions" it should take you to this part:

Now either delete it all or just comment-out (adding semi-colon makes the script to skip and not execute the line after it) these lines:

Have fun with your very impressive empire! :charge:

Parthians in Germania and Scandinavia? Too cold, and bad country for horses, surely?

Thanks to you both for the kind and very fast replies!

It was actually a different script I stumbled upon after you pointed me in the right direction:

;--------------------------------------------------
;Section 8f: Pahlava Shahanshah
;--------------------------------------------------

declare_counter shahanshah

set_counter shahanshah 0


monitor_event SettlementTurnStart SettlementName Gáwjám~Skándzáwárjoz
and SettlementBuildingExists = hinterland_victory

set_counter shahanshah 1

end_monitor

and I_SettlementOwner Persepolis = parthia
and I_CompareCounter shahanshah = 0

; Use of the disaster_fire event causes a crash under some circumstances.
; We'll use the advisor to send the Shahanshah message instead.
;console_command test_message disaster_fire
advance_advice_thread Shahanshah_Thread
console_command create_building Gawjam_Skandzawarjoz hinterland_victory


terminate_monitor
end_monitor

By adding ";" I'll probably get rid of it. Thanks a lot for the quick help. I was afraid I had to abandon the campaign. I will report back to you when my victory is complete!

Today I confirmed that the bug has been resolved. Amazing! I am happy to see the aging community is still so helpful.

I'd be more concerned about the local bare chested soldiers, facing armoured horse archers and elite cataphracts... ~D

I am glad to be of some help even though I have missed the most relevant part. :bow:

Good that you figured it out yourself! :2thumbsup:

Soon you might try such conquest in EB2 and hopefully it will be as much fun as it is in EB1. :party:
