Does anyone know how the isEqual function works? When I call it, the game freezes.

I just forgot to set the sleep timer. Thanks. The encoding is correct; I've been creating maps here for years. Thank you very much.

In principle, the sleep timer isn't even needed there - while you're reading the first message, the sleep timer will end, and the question will start. Modality is better. Although you only have 2 messages, so it will work anyway. If there were some kind of action, it would trigger immediately (for example, some sound). In general, I meant the syntax - there's an extra then and no comma in the last trigger. :smile01:

Where did you find that function? :confused:

Oops, it still doesn't work. Whether I use a sleep function or not, whether I use "then" or not (which, in theory, should trigger a sleep function automatically), it still doesn't work... I'm at my wit's end :(

`isEqual` can be found in the list that occasionally appears in the built-in script editor. Regarding message windows: Mine always appear in order without any delays or modal behavior.

isEqual I found it in the list that occasionally appears in the built-in script editor.

Most likely, it is simply not used. I didn't find anything about isEqual in the manual, and the script editor doesn't provide any information. Fan guides also don't mention it. The built-in script editor is quite flawed and contains errors. What is this function supposed to do?

IsEqual literally translates to "Equal," meaning this function should equalize something.

The game crashes, and that’s it. How am I supposed to know what it’s supposed to do? :(

Well, for example, like this

And what do you need it for if you don't even know what it's for, and whether it's even used at all?

Hello everyone!
I have a question. Is it possible to enhance a specific spell using combat scripts?
Best regards.

Through combat? I'm not sure. You can do it through a mod; I think I found the necessary files somewhere. And of course, modders and balancers like Nargott know how.

Thank you. How are specializations changed through combat scripts? Sincerely.

Well, for example, it's not difficult to implement a special ability like Zephyr. You place a combat script on the desired hero, and in it, you write that when a unit dies, a summon should occur. However, you'll probably also need to create a list of all units at the beginning of the battle so that no summoned units appear in place of the killed ones.

How can I use scripts to make reinforcements arrive during a battle?

Looks like it's done through SummonCreatures... There was definitely a function for it in the manual. Best regards.

AddCreature(side, type, number, x = -1, y = -1);
Side - the faction, x and y - tile coordinates. Number - the number of creatures, type - presumably, the unit name. I'm not very good at combat scripts yet, so I can't say anything definitive, other than quoting from the manual. Best regards.

Thank you very much! Maybe I'm being annoying, but I have another question - is it possible to make the game remember the number of summoned creatures remaining at the end of the battle for a specific faction?
Best regards.
