Error on EDB

What can this be?

https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...eus/erro-1.jpg

have you made that new building , or is it from a mod (the spartacus mod apparently) ? If it's from a mod , it's best to ask on their forum :)

It's pretty clear actually. ;) The building tree's first level (ie shrine) is not available to a faction, while a level above that is, so it's causing an error.

Neither the temple the error referes to is not available to romans_julii on any level. The temple above it, is available for all the leves. I've checked and re-checked it, thats why it doesn't seem to make sense. Also, the line the error points to, its the last line on the EDB.


It is from a mod, PopePopo. But one that I am creating: Spartacus, Total War.

Could you post the entire section of code for the temple_of_governors?

Here it is.

is

Quote:

---

temple_of_governors_pantheon requires factions { }

---

the right way to say no factions can build that level? maybe its reading that as all factions?

I've seen that written elsewhere as

Quote:

---

temple_of_governors_pantheon requires factions { , }

---

Also, the line the error points to, its the last line on the EDB.

If the above doesn't work - you can sometimes get really weird EDB errors if you've made changes to resources / things Carthaginian's can build without fixing their look up first, and haven't deleted your map.rwm

I believe the right way is

temple_of_governors_pantheon

nothing added in front of it, because there are other temples like that. I checked it when I made the changes.
My mistake, I pasted after making some changes to try and see if it would work.
Here is the "correct" one:

I think you will find, and as Mak rightly guessed, that your syntax is being read as "all factions". The Julii are being reported because they are the default report faction I believe. Change it to the syntax Mak suggested. This is how I do it, and it is how other mods no doubt do it - check other mods and learn from them rather than guessing :yes:

I can confirm the syntax isnt the issue, had to dig trhu some back up folders, but from my EDB:

edit: .. er .. I used 2 spaces instead of 1, so perhaps it could be a syntax error ... lol

If you do not want pontus or macedon to have the pantheon level, why not just remove it?

This ought to do the trick (I think)

It is the syntax. I tested a building from a mod. Use the "requires factions { , }" to block out any higher levels you do not want; you can just remove the level but sometimes that means hunting through and changing references elsewhere (and of course you may choose to use it later).

I have used this in FATW for years and it has never caused any reported errors, CTDs or instability.
