Aleha, you probably messed something up in the map properties tree for this player. Please check the "players" branch and remove anything suspicious.

Hey guys, another question about scripts. How can I make a certain number of units appear in a specific city on a specific week? And is that even possible?

If a specific week is simply week number N, then it is possible. See the following functions:
Trigger(NEW_DAY_TRIGGER, 'handler_name');
GetDate(ABSOLUTE_DAY);
AddObjectCreatures('city_name', creature_type, quantity, slot_number);

Trigger(NEW_DAY_TRIGGER, 'handler_name');
GetDate(ABSOLUTE_DAY);
AddObjectCreatures('town_name', creature_type, quantity, slot_number);

I'm a bit slow, but what is "handler_name"? Is it the player number?
And in the second line of the script, should I write "ABSOLUTE_DAY" in parentheses?

So, for example, if I want 15 Paladins to appear in my town on the 3rd week, what would this script look like?

Grimrock, sorry, I don't write ready-made scripts; I'm all about self-education :)
"Handler Name" - the name of the function that will be called when the trigger is activated.
ABSOLUTE_DAY - it must be written exactly like that. 3 weeks is approximately 15 days. So, you need to check if the value returned by GetDate(ABSOLUTE_DAY) is equal to 15.

Can the function name be any name, or is there a specific requirement?
And how do you check that the value returned by GetDate(ABSOLUTE_DAY) is equal to 15?

after capturing objects

Trigger(OBJECT_CAPTURE_TRIGGER, functionName);

The enemy hero has become an ally

SetObjectOwner(objectName, playerID);

What is a resource database, and where is it located? I want to display a message, and the message needs to include its ID from the resource database.

Could you please tell me: in the SetRegionBlocked script, what should be entered in the "status" field to set the region to be blocked?

Thank you! I already had a chance to look at the scripts from the campaigns)

So, here's another question: in the "GetPlayerResource" script, there's a player and a resource type, but how do you specify the amount of resource received?

The function returns the current amount of that resource. This function and the one that sets the resource amount are described in the manual.

I have a problem! How can I make it so that at the beginning of a new day, a battle starts between creatures (Archangels) and the hero (Arantir)? It doesn't seem to be working. ``` function bar (hero) if hero=="Arantir" then StartCombat(Arantir,nil,5,14,1,14,1,14,1,14,1,14,1,nil); end; end; Trigger(NEW_DAY_TRIGGER,"bar"); ``` I've tried it without the `if...then` statement, but it still doesn't work. Can you help me?

The function that handles the new day does not receive a parameter with the hero's name. Therefore, the if...then statement should be removed, as well as one of the end statements. In StartCombat, the hero's name also needs to be enclosed in quotation marks.
