2. Can you write a sample script that works automatically for any mines? That is, if you add a gold mine, the effect is automatically applied to it.

Ah, and yes. You don't need to name the mines; GetObjectNamesByType creates them all without any issues.

Jewill, I asked our friend Dolgiy to write a script only because I know it's not just a couple of lines, and the advice "just select resources in the trigger for a new day" might not help someone who's not familiar with it.

Everything looks good. I can suggest a simplification:
Create a table with resource coefficients based on the weeks:

multiplies={[UNION_WEEK_ID]=3, [IDLE_WEEK_ID]=0.5}
weekMultiplier=multiplies[GetCurrentMoonWeek()] or 1

 

Disabling the standard operation of the mine shouldn't prevent resource generation (if it's captured). And indeed, resources are calculated before the trigger for a new day activates.

I asked my friend Dolgiy to write a script.

This is sad, although logical. I just think that these manipulations with subtraction are not the right solution.
Although, based on my personal experience and the experience of this entire thread, sometimes there is no right solution, or rather, there is, but it is not feasible.
In any case, thank you, I won't waste time trying to bypass the Nival events.

I don't remember being asked to write a script, but my idea is generally similar to Jewill's script. Only, I'm not a very good programmer (I don't really understand tables; 2D arrays are closer to me). It should be taken into account that there are also weeks of mining 2x (wood + ore), as well as the same for Sulfur + Mercury and Crystals + Gems, the names of which I don't remember. And another week for gold.

You can also do this using a while 1 do loop. Where mines that don't pass the check for the presence of creatures become neutral.

--Name all mines with the same name plus a number starting from 1 and onwards: For example, mine1, mine2, mine3, mine4, etc.                                                                                                                  
                                   

while 1 do
 sleep(10);
 for i = 1,"number of mines on the map" do  --"number of mines on the map" replace with the number
  if GetObjectCreatures("mine"..i,"creature ID") == 0 and GetObjectOwner("mine"..i) ~= 0 then --replace "creature ID" with the desired creature ID
   SetObjectOwner("mine"..i,0);
  end;
 end;
end;

However, something is needed to stop the mine from becoming neutral when a hero captures it and places creatures in the garrison. Otherwise, the mine will become neutral, and you will have to fight these creatures. Something like a region around the active tile of the mine and a condition that if there is no hero in the region, then SetObjectOwner("mine"..i,0) is executed. But I think there is a better idea, but it doesn't come to mind yet.

Hello everyone!
I've read many times that TalkBoxForPlayers corrupts save files in Multiplayer. And just as many times, I've read that it doesn't.
Is there any truth to this? And if it does, does anyone know the approximate reason?
I'm not really hoping for a solution
Because it's a great tool.

I haven't had any problems with TalkBoxForPlayers. The only thing I can say is that the game version should be 3.1. The player ID is not counted as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, but as 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and the two arguments: IconTooltipRef and AddTextRef should only contain quotes without a link "", as the link text is not displayed anyway (a bug, etc.). You can see examples of TalkBoxForPlayers working stably on my map "White Temple". And yes, I recommend editing the .lua code only in the HoMM5MapScriptsEditor program.

I just checked the map in online mode. The first time it worked normally, but the second time it crashed. Hmm.

Dolgy, "can you write a script" was the request. You clearly didn't notice.

Your version with checks is extremely inefficient in terms of execution time. It results in a constant cycle running throughout the game, with another N iterations per tick. At the same time, you need to strictly track the number of mines and number each one. Yes, such a script might be easier for a beginner than tables (by the way, they are still two-dimensional, in Jewill's version), but then the user will end up solving everything in a brute-force manner and will hit a dead end in more complex situations.
Moreover, the automatic reset of the mine's owner will trigger... immediately after it is captured! Unless the player manages to quickly click on the mine and assign the desired garrison (and it's not easy to carry it around)... Plus, the computer will lose the ability to control these mines at all.
So, despite all due respect for your experience with Multiplayer, which still delights the eye, the script you proposed in its current form is simply not working.

Jewill, I can't definitively say whether they can cause crashes, but I haven't encountered such a problem myself, just like Dolgy.

P.S. Since we're talking about advice, I recommend looking at how talkboxes are structured in the "Path of the Hero" map (in the talkbox.lia scripts) or in MCCS
