Creating Garrison Script.

[daud.fr]

Thanks Atilius, i'll try redo it as you adviced.

You can use my Garrison script if you want. Mine is based in the Garrison script made by LorDBulA (included into SPQR mod).
Here it is the code:

script

;console_command toggle_perfect_spy
;very useful to debug

declare_counter City1Besiged
set_counter City1Besiged 0
declare_counter City2Besiged
set_counter City2Besiged 0
;...per settlement

monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType [faction1]
and I_LocalFaction [faction1]

   if I_CompareCounter City1Besiged = 0
      and not I_SettlementOwner [city1] = [faction1]
      if I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] general,  2 x1,y1
         set_counter City1Besiged 1
      end_if
      if I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] family,  2 x1,y1
         set_counter City1Besiged 1
      end_if
   end_if
   if I_CompareCounter City1Besiged = 2
      and not I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] family, 2 x1,y1
      and not I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] general, 2 x1,y1
      set_counter City1Besiged 0
   end_if

   if I_CompareCounter City2Besiged = 0
      and not I_SettlementOwner [city2] = [faction1]
      if I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] general,  2 x2,y2
         set_counter City2Besiged 1
      end_if
      if I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] family,  2 x2,y2
         set_counter City2Besiged 1
      end_if
   end_if
   if I_CompareCounter City2Besiged = 2
      and not I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] family, 2 x2,y2
      and not I_CharacterTypeNearTile [faction1] general, 2 x2,y2
      set_counter City2Besiged 0
   end_if
   ;...per settlement

end_monitor
;...a monitor per possible local faction

monitor_event SettlementTurnEnd SettlementName [city1-mapname]
   and I_CompareCounter City1Besiged = 1
   and GarrisonSettlementRatio < 0.5
      if I_SettlementOwner [city1] = [faction1]
         console_command create_unit [city1] "unit name" 4
         console_command add_money -2000       
         console_command add_population City -1500
      end_if
      if I_SettlementOwner [city1] = [faction2]
         console_command create_unit [city1] "unit name" 4
         console_command add_money -2000       
         console_command add_population City -1500
      end_if
      set_counter City1Besiged 2
      ;...an if per faction
end_monitor

monitor_event SettlementTurnEnd SettlementName [city2-mapname]
   and I_CompareCounter City2Besiged = 1
   and GarrisonSettlementRatio < 0.5
      if I_SettlementOwner [city2] = [faction1]
         console_command create_unit [city1] "unit name" 4
         console_command add_money -2000       
         console_command add_population City -1500
      end_if
      if I_SettlementOwner [city2] = [faction2]
         console_command create_unit [city1] "unit name" 4
         console_command add_money -2000       
         console_command add_population City -1500
      end_if
      ;...an if per faction
      set_counter City2Besiged 2
end_monitor
;...a monitor per settlement


while TrueCondition
end_while

end_script

You need to change all words in brackets, I tried to use your same nomenclature. And copy-paste the code where it says ";...per faction or settlement"

Note: The condition "SettlementName" needs the name of the city that it is shown in the map, not the internal name.
You can see it in the file: data\text\imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt

ie:{Lepcis_Magna} Lepcis Magna
[city1]=internal name, ie:Lepcis_Magna
[city1-mapname]=name show in map, ie:Lepcis Magna

I also recommend you to read the Intermediate Guide to Scripting, By Epistolary Richard & Myrddraal. (if you didn't already read it)

Note2 - Important thing not said in this guide: When you use an "if" or "while" statment, you can only use conditions starting by "I_" . All other conditions need some Trigger requirements, and they can only be used with monitor_events. (the "Trigger requirements" of the condition must be in the "Exports" of the event)

start very simple, make sure what you have works, then add on. Writing more than a half-dozen lines of script without errors is difficult, particularly if you haven't done a lot of scripting.

Wise words. It is almost impossible to write the full script and get it working at the first attempt. I suggest you to test it with one city and 2 factions until the script is working. Then, you can add lines and adjust the script.

I hope this helps

Bardo thanks a lot, i really appreciate your help! I'll start exprimenting right away!

[daud.fr]

Bardo, i got confused a bit with your instructions :(.
Could you please just clarify this for me.
Am i right here:
[city name = map name = Acre, faction1 = sassanids, faction 2 = franks, unit name = crusader latin knigts (just for testing)]

script

This For each Settlement

declare_counter AcreBesiged
set_counter AcreBesiged 0

Repeat For Each Faction

monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType sassanids
and I_LocalFaction sassanids

;;;;;;;Repeat For Each Settlement;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
   if I_CompareCounter AcreBesiged = 0
      and not I_SettlementOwner Acre = sassanids
      if I_CharacterTypeNearTile sassanids general,  2 151,162
         set_counter AcreBesiged 1
      end_if
      if I_CharacterTypeNearTile sassanids family,  2 151,162
         set_counter AcreBesiged 1
      end_if
   end_if
   if I_CompareCounter AcreBesiged = 2
      and not I_CharacterTypeNearTile sassanids family, 2 151,162
      and not I_CharacterTypeNearTile sassanids general, 2 151,162
      set_counter AcreBesiged 0
   end_if
;;;;;;;^^^Repeat for Each Settlement^^^;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

end_monitor

This Monitor For Every Settlement

monitor_event SettlementTurnEnd SettlementName Acre
   and I_CompareCounter AcreBesiged = 1
   and GarrisonSettlementRatio < 0.5
      if I_SettlementOwner Acre = sassanids
         console_command create_unit Acre "crusader latin knights" 4
         console_command add_money -2000       
         console_command add_population Acre -1500
      end_if
      if I_SettlementOwner Acre = franks
         console_command create_unit Acre "crusader latin knights" 4
         console_command add_money -2000       
         console_command add_population Acre -1500
      end_if
      if I_SettlementOwner Acre = slave
         console_command create_unit Acre "crusader latin knights" 4
         console_command add_money -2000       
         console_command add_population Acre -1500
      end_if
      set_counter AcreBesiged 2
end_monitor

while TrueCondition
end_while

end_script

Did i understand your instructions correctly?
Thanks Bardo.

[daud.fr]

Bardo
Thanks bro, i made it work!
The problem was i forgot to add
"declare_counter loop
set_counter loop 0" in the begginning

and

"while I_CompareCounter loop = 0
end_while
end_script

in the end".

Also thanks a lot for letting me use your kind. It was very kind of you. Hopefully it is going to be included in a new patch for the Crusades!
Now i'm gonna have to copy it for all the factions))) A lot of boring work to do))

[Bardo]

Did i understand your instructions correctly?

Yes, you understood right.

Also thanks a lot for letting me use your kind.

No problem, man. In fact, mine is just an evolution from LorDBula's.
And I'm happy if my work is useful to other people.

The problem was i forgot to add...

Weird, because this code has the same effect:

while TrueCondition
end_while

than that:

declare_counter loop
set_counter loop 0
while I_CompareCounter loop = 0
end_while

Now i'm gonna have to copy it for all the factions))) A lot of boring work to do))

I agree... really boring.

You can pm me if you have some other doubt, or if you find some bug in the script.

[Hoginator01]

I followed Bardo's guide and it works. Thanks!
