Error on EDB

[neo_deus]

What can this be?

[PopePopo]

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 :)

[Aradan]

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.

[Makanyane]

is

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

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

[neo_deus]

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

[Red Spot]

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

[SubRosa]

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.
