Ok, has this been done to date? Specifically, I really need to know what happens in the following cases:
(building or unit) requires factions { blah, blah,} AND a AND b AND NOT c OR d AND e AND NOT f OR g
How, exactly, do the OR operators affect this? Has anyone done any comprehensive testing? Or would be willing to?
For example, does "A" or "B" and etc represent say.. Marian_reforms, or "X" building, or "X" population and whatnot? And will these be in expor_descr_unit and expor_descr_building?
Finals are over and I'm going to have a clear week till next weekend with all the free time in the world, before a day to travel back and more free time, but I'm going to need a bit of direction pointing to get started as I don't have a great amount of experience modding the files besides small little personal adjustments.
So it would be a better idea to get a more experienced person to do this, but if needed I could do various experiments with regular vanilla and report any findings to help light the way.
A and B represent any building or unit conditional. An easy thing to test might be some combination of hidden resources. So "and hidden_resource A" and so on. Or "and building_present_min_level complex_name building_level." Really, any conditional that works.
Cheers!
I can't say i have done extensive tests on this, nor that this is something have used to great extent, but from my limited experience, the game engine reads the code like this:
(building or unit) requires ( factions { blah, blah,} AND a AND b AND NOT c ) OR ( d AND e AND NOT f ) OR ( g )
I haven't done any tests with this bit exactly, but I would be pretty sure that that's how the game reads it.

If that's the case (interpreting NOT then AND then OR), that's perfect. We could do anything we wanted with it.
Havn't modded EDB for a while...does brackets work in RTW though?
Nope. We wish.
