Europa Barbarorum 2.08e is released!

[QWE_asd]

change from 2.02a, I capped battles won at 5 and regions gained at 3:


;
; * FORGIVENESS OR RECOGNITION EVENTS
;
declare_counter baktria_battlewon
declare_counter baktria_regionstaken
;

terminate_monitor
end_if
end_monitor
;

inc_counter baktria_regionstaken 1

if I_EventCounter ecBaktriaIsAI = 1 ;;; save monitor if Baktria is AI-controlled
terminate_monitor
end_if

if I_CompareCounter baktria_regionstaken = 3
terminate_monitor
end_if
end_monitor
;

end_if

and I_CompareCounter baktria_regionstaken > 1
historic_event HE_BAKTRIA_FORGIVEN true factions { f_baktria, }

while I_EventCounter HE_BAKTRIA_FORGIVEN_accepted = 0 ;;; while-loop to pause the script until a decision is made
and I_EventCounter HE_BAKTRIA_FORGIVEN_declined = 0
end_while

if I_EventCounter HE_BAKTRIA_FORGIVEN_accepted = 1
console_command diplomatic_stance f_seleukid f_baktria alliance
set_faction_standing f_baktria f_seleukid 0.5
set_faction_standing f_seleukid f_baktria 0.5

end_if

if I_EventCounter HE_PAY_TRIBUTE_TO_SELEUKIDS_declined = 1
set_counter baktria_tributeunpaid 0
set_event_counter HE_PAY_TRIBUTE_TO_SELEUKIDS_declined = 0
end_if
end_if

if I_EventCounter ecBaktriaRebellion = 1
and I_CompareCounter baktria_battlewon = 5
and I_CompareCounter baktria_regionstaken > 2
historic_event HE_BAKTRIA_KINGDOM factions { f_baktria, }

set_faction_standing f_baktria f_seleukid 0.0
set_faction_standing f_seleukid f_baktria 0.0
set_event_counter ecBaktriaKingdom 1
set_event_counter ecBaktriaRebellion 0
terminate_monitor
end_if
end_monitor


---------------------
It seems the player can get infinite colony pts by accident and AI always gets infinite colony pts.

Can someone explains this:
;
; Re-enable the event counter after the player has clicked the end turn button. If this isn't done, the colony builing will never complete.
;
monitor_event ButtonPressed ButtonPressed end_turn
set_event_counter ecMakedoniaColonistsOn 1
end_monitor

I've changed both of those battles_won/regions_taken conditions to > rather than = it's more reliable, apparently.

It now looks thus:

    ;

            terminate_monitor
        end_if
        
        if I_CompareCounter baktria_battlewon > 5

This might solve the colony bug:
;
; Re-enable the event counter after the player has clicked the end turn button. If this isn't done, the colony builing will never complete.
;
monitor_event ButtonPressed ButtonPressed end_turn
if not I_IsFactionAIControlled f_makedonia

I pulled it just after putting it up - just a few more changes then ready.

monitor_event ButtonPressed ButtonPressed end_turn

set_event_counter ecMakedoniaColonistsOn 1
end_if
end_monitor

That looks to me to be it. There was check that the faction was being played by a human player - that should do it. We've been using that same logic elsewhere to tell the script to do something when it's an AI faction.

Incidentally, the same issue was there in Roman and Carthaginian colony management - something triggered by the end_turn button, but no check that the faction was human-played. Which of course it has to be, since the AI factions can't press the button.

Can AI build colonies after these changes (and before)?

--------------------
"EDIT: The placement of Hellenistic Poleis and Colony buildings has been adjusted. Emporion, Arbela and Sousa lose their Poleis building; Rhegion, Messana and Chersonesos gain one. Demetrias, Alexandreia and Antiocheia lose their Colony buildings, Seleukeia, Ipsos, Sardis, Rhagae, Edessa and Memphis are upgraded to/have added the second tier colony, Baktra gets a first-tier colony."

I didn't see any colony in baktra.

The colony changes were in 2.02b before I pulled it. So you can't see them yet in 2.02a.

[QuintusSertorius]

I've updated the first post with some more of the coming changes. Just doing final testing, then 2.02b should be ready.
