These are just lines describing the state of the building. You can leave them as they are.

attempt to call a nil value - in both cases, with accepting and declining the question box.
Also, the blue player refused to capture nearby dwellings during their turn, although they might not have wanted to.

I completely forgot! This error shouldn't affect anything. To remove the error message, you need to slightly modify the last two functions.

function burnok(hut)
	Trigger(4, hut, nil)
	hutt = hutt + 1
	HAVEN_DWLS[hut] = nil
	return function()
	end
end

function burnno(hut)
	SetObjectEnabled(hut, 1)
	Trigger(4, hut, nil)
	sleep(1)
	MakeHeroInteractWithObject('Nymus' , hut)
	sleep(1)
	SetObjectEnabled(hut, nil)
	Trigger(4, hut, "BurnHavenDwelling")
	return function()
	end
end

Thank you very much! I will definitely try to complete a feat and continue studying Lua.

Yes, and here's another question: if you click "OK" after the question, will the trigger never be activated again on that object? And will it become completely inaccessible to everyone?

And one more thing - about icons. Let's say it's possible for resources, but not for creatures. What about spells? Is the icon display also done through something else?

yes, by the way, if you click "OK" after the question, will the trigger never be activated on that object again? And will it become completely inaccessible to everyone?

Yes. You can also set a low priority for the AI so that it doesn't keep clicking on it.

and another thing - about icons. Let's say you can do it for resources, but not for creatures. What about spells? Is the icon display also implemented in a strange way?

A crash is unlikely. Maybe we can add pop-up text saying "such and such spell has been learned"?

Yes, that's what I did. It just looks nicer with icons, though.

Well, and the last question for today. WHERE do I create AdvMap dialogues? I usually replace these things with regular cutscenes, but today I felt like working in NivalStyle.

The "dialogs" property in the map's properties tree. One of the topics in this section describes how to create them.

But it's all quite simple. After struggling with the videos))) I was interested in whether I had created it correctly and how the editor names the created scene.
Thank you very much again)

Is it possible to set a very high priority for Player 4, for example, but for a moving object, such as another hero of Player 3?

It is possible, but the attractor doesn't work well with heroes. It's better to use MoveHero.

Can anyone describe the structure and properties of the talkbox function? I can't find a proper description.

Copypasted from a fan manual.<col width="41" style="width: 31pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 1450;"> <col width="249" style="width: 187pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 8846;"> <col width="177" style="width: 133pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 6286;"> <col width="518" style="width: 389pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 18432;">

func	TalkBoxForPlayers		Opens a dialog with several response options (from 1 to 5) for selected players (playersFilter). The function does not issue error messages because if parameters are incorrect, default values are used
	playersFilter	PlayersFilteringConstantsID	Identifier of selected players
	iconRef		Reference to the icon texture
	iconTooltipRef		Path to the icon tooltip text
	textRef		Path to the dialog text
	addTextRef		Path to the dialog text (additional)
	callback		String with the name of the lua function, whose first parameter conveys the player's response (number: 0 - cancel, -1 - closed by player, 1.. - number of the response selected by the player)
	mode		Mode type: 0 - with OK button, 1 - OK/Close
	titleTextRef		Path to the window title text
	selectTextRef		Path to the header text before selection options
	defaultOption		Number of the response highlighted by default (number: 0 - none, 1.. - response number)
	optionTextRef		path to response text № 1
	[ optionTextRef]		Path to response text № ...
	…		[Response number]

The player who answered the question and the response number (responses 1-5, non-natural values indicate that the window was closed) are passed to the function with the name provided as the callback parameter.

It's possible, but the attractor doesn't work well with heroes. It's better to use MoveHero.

MoveHero isn't very good either, as it somehow doesn't find a suitable path, and I can't understand why...

This can only happen if there is an obstacle in the path (static object, region, disabled garrison, etc.), or if there is no path at all. Monsters should not be an obstacle.

Region? What region are you talking about?)))

Even a region that isn't suitable for that hero and player, and even with the WITHOUT_STOP_TRIGGER, will still be an obstacle?!

No, of course, it's just blocked.

What path does it follow? Just a road, or are there portals, stairs...?

Before sending it, you can check if the cell is reachable using CanMoveHero(hero, x, y, floor).
