Questions about Personal Security and General Hitpoints

[SSJVegetaTrunks]

What are they at by default and how high and low can they go?

EDIT: Another VERY important question: how do you make faction-specific traits? If I remember correctly, you can do it by adding something like "IsFactionThrace" for the conditions of the triggers. Can anyone please confirm this?

[Makanyane]

For faction specific trait use

Condition FactionType vandals
in trigger or

Condition blah.....
and FactionType vandals

Personal security I've used up to 100 - embarrassingly that doesn't make generals immune from assassination in game though.

Hit points I haven't tried doing anything extreme with.

[SSJVegetaTrunks]

Ok, thank you! Does the "FactionType" condition work for RTW 1.5 or just for BI? Because I use RTW.

[SSJVegetaTrunks]

Anyone know? I suppose I could just try it to find out.

EDIT: Another question - can you make having a certain building in a city be a condition for a trigger that takes place when character comes of age? For example:

If I want to make it so that if you have an academy in a city, and a general comes of age in that city, that he will gain a certain trait?

EDIT: Yet another question - how does the GeneralNumKillsInBattle condition work? Does that mean that the general himself has to kill that many troops, or that his body guard unit has to? Is there a list of all conditions possiblef or traits?

Yes it works for rtw 1.5.

SettlementBuildingExists =>< buildingname

where buildingname is the name of the building in question in EDB.

The general has to kill that number of troops.


Is there a list of all conditions possiblef or traits?

Yes, if you dig around the downloads section its called BI_docs.zip, although it's updated for 1.6, everything works with 1.5 as well.

[BozosLiveHere]

Not everything. There are things that just won't work (like the PreBattle event) and others that only work in specific files (like FactionwideAncillaryExists and WorldwideAncillaryExists).

We used to have a thread just for discussing events, conditions and commands, you should be able to dig it up.

[Squid]

That thread is outdated, as many (all?) of the things introduced in BI do not even appear there, such as your two examples above.

[SSJVegetaTrunks]

Thank you! Now I wonder... How do I add new conditions, and where can I find a list of the Trait effects, and how can I make new trait effects?

EDIT: I'd like to see a list of ALL possible effects. I'm curious to see the kinds of effects these triggers can have.

[Squid]

As far as I know there is no complete list of effects, if you look through the traits and ancillaries files you will be able to generate a list of all the effects that CA used in their release.

You can't make create new conditions (such as checking if a player has a particular ancillary) or new effects (such as MissleCommand which would be similar to InfantryCommand or Calvalry Command)

EDIT: The file I suggested you find earlier in this thread will have a list of conditions as well as events that can be used.
