Casualty Healing/Recovery rates...

Traits are generally not save game compatible, if you want any shot of the change being save game compatible, add the new trait to the bottom of the trait list, the trigger can go anywhere, as can the descriptions in export_VnV. As an aside there are a couple of mistakes in the trait code above, the trigger is incorrect, as the affects line isn't correctly formed, also you are missing the level name entries for the three levels.

Fixed.

I thought some parts of that script looked kinda funky when i compared it to the other scripts. Thanks a bunch guys, i'll go implement it and check it out. I'll start a new game and see if that fixes the wierd traits issue too...

ARGGGHHHH.....

I followed all the suggestions... The trait works now for my saved game (the only thing is that it doesn't send me a message saying that he got it...not important though). My trouble is that i can't start a new game at all. I get another CTD...

THis isn't a huge issue at the moment, but it would be nice to fix it now ahead of time. THanks.

(I feel like i'm playing a sick and twisted version of "Wack a Mole" right now. One thing fixed, another breaks!)

To get the message you do need to add a line to the level/s you want the message for eg:

	Level HealingTouchLevel1
		Description HealingTouch1_desc
		EffectsDescription HealingTouch1_effects_desc
                GainMessage HealingTouch1_gain_desc
		Threshold 1

and

{HealingTouch1_gain_desc} Message blurb............

in the text file

If you can't start a new campaign I'd suspect a problem in descr_strat, check any changes you made in that.
(have fun mole whacking!)

Where the heck do you put this? You didn't exactly say, and i can't find where it might go:

"{HealingTouch1_gain_desc} Message....."

and whats the file path for "descr_strat"? I can't find that either...

Sorry, but like i said, i'm still learning the ropes for this.

(And just a reminder... I'm using Europa Barbarorum incase any1 missed that in first post)

Search is your fried, search the EB directory to find descr_stat, and the gain message goes in the same place as all the other messages.

oh well, if you hadn't found descr_strat.txt before (in .../data/world/maps/campaign/campaign_name...)
then you can't have made an error in it!

Did you remove any old traits while you were doing this? Note also that the trigger can go anywhere in the trigger section at the bottom of the traits file. But don't put a trigger in amongst the traits or you'll stop the traits below it being read (If it accepts it at all).
