Scripted Interventions

There are few misions implemented.
Makedons and Seleucids (i think) can return body of Alexandross back to Macedon. Other script lets you assist at capturing some province (sorry dont remember specifics, i wasnt making this one).

If you want to make some you are more then welcome.

ER wrote two excellent guides for scripting in RTW

This is basic one:

Its the bible for scripting. As it contains list of all avaible console_commands, monitor events etc...

There is also intermediate guide, you can find it in scriptorium.

If you know anything about programing or scripting you can start doing scripts in 5 minutes
If you dont know anything i would advice spending 1 hour in library.
Take handbook for some very simple programing language (even old one like QBasic) and read first few chapters. Dont go to deep, read about loops, variables, if conditions, logic statements. This is all you need because RTW unfortunately doesnt offer much more.
For example in my book for C++ everything you need is in second chapter (first is Getting started chapter), 23 pages in total out of 1200+ in whole book.

Good luck.

Ranika and I are considering some scripting options for getting the other Gallic tribes more involed in the civil war.

Thanks LorDBulA.

Qwerty, are you talking about ways to include some of the independent tribes? That could be pretty cool if you could make it work well.

Yeah that is what I'm talking about, and I too hope it works and will be cool

Is there one for "Hellenes go bonkers if dirty Romans take the Delphic Oracle"? or was it just the KH seeing an opportunity to shank my tired field force?

There is. Anyone messes with Delphi and they won't be able to keep the KH from attacking them. Hope you liked it.

I suppose they'll get REALLY annoyed if I knock it down? *coughs*

It's been great fun for war-crazy Cotta at least, although I've had to move my other "consul" and his legions over to keep the Makedonians and Getai off my back. I'm just relieved that the Averni and Aedui seem to be taking pottery classes or something! :)
