No, it’s old, but there’s still a lot of other stuff written in between.

Just copied and pasted, the turns work, so I guess everything else will work too. And why was it -1000? Did you play it?

Yeah, I tested it. Seems to be working.

Hello everyone! I have a question, maybe you've encountered it before: I placed a lot of grass objects from the "Grass" tab on the map, but when I tested the map, the grass disappeared. What could be the reason for this?

It seems like you need to change the graphics settings. At low settings, the grass doesn't appear.

Yes, I thought so too, but the graphics are set to very high, with only anti-aliasing and filtering turned off.

Hello! Does anyone know how to make another hero follow the main hero using a script? Like in the campaign, following Freya in the first mission, when Laslo followed her on the map. Please help!

Try this:

SetAIHeroAttractor([script name of your hero (in quotes)], [script name of the enemy hero (in quotes)], 2);

Thank you! Unfortunately, it's not quite right. The hero who should follow me is an ally and should simply follow closely behind. Maybe you can suggest where to find the original maps from the game; I'm sure I can find that script there.

Ah, I understand you now. Well, to get the map from Hammers of Fate, you need the Hammers of Fate game itself. Then, go to the game folder/data/data.pak (open with WinRAR)/Maps/Scenario/A1C1M1/MapScript.lua (open with Notepad), and take a look there.

Thanks for the help, I'll try to find it there. By the way, can you tell me why this script isn't working for me? It seems simple, but only the first trigger works.
function gF ()
Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "g", nil);
MessageBox("/Maps/SingleMissions/Map_01/gF.txt");
end;

Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "g", "gF");

function goF ()
Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "go", nil);
MessageBox("/Maps/SingleMissions/Map_01/goF.txt");
SetObjectiveState("quest", OBJECTIVE_ACTIVE);
end;

Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "go", "goF");

function skelF ()
Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "skel", nil);
RemoveObject("goD");
end;

Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "skel", "skelF");

to be more precise, the first two triggers work, but the second one doesn't. The point is that when I approach the monster (skel) and interact with it (battle), the object (goD) is removed from the map during the interaction

Check the goF.txt file. Maybe it has a different encoding? Or perhaps the filename doesn't match exactly? I can't say for sure. It's best to debug scripts using the console: /topic/816/ All script errors are displayed there; you can also use the print() function to output parameter values.

Everything seems fine with goF, the last function isn't working, the one where
function skelF ()
Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "skel", nil);
RemoveObject("goD");
end;

Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "skel", "skelF");

What could be the problem? Could it be that it shouldn't be placed on a monster?

What is the monster's name? Is it "skel" or something else? Case sensitivity matters. Also, if you need the trigger to activate before the battle with the monster, you need to disable it first (SetObjectEnabled("skel", nil);), and then call MakeHeroInteractWithObject([hero], "skel"); to start the battle.

I understand your idea; you're right, it needs to be disabled so it doesn't work normally, and then enabled at the end to start the battle, but it's not working very well.
function gF ()
Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "g", nil);
MessageBox("/Maps/SingleMissions/Map_01/gF.txt");
end;

Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "g", "gF");

function goF ()
Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "go", nil);
MessageBox("/Maps/SingleMissions/Map_01/goF.txt");
SetObjectiveState("quest", OBJECTIVE_ACTIVE);
end;

Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "go", "goF");

SetObjectEnabled("skel", false);

function skelF ()
Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "skel", nil);
RemoveObject("gg");
MakeHeroInteractWithObject("skel", "Agata");
end;

Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "skel", "skelF");

The goF trigger works, displays a message, and sets a task. Then, I approach the monster, but the hero doesn't attack it; he just stands next to it, and the object isn't removed by RemoveObject("gg"); the monster is named correctly).
Please, tell me where the mistake is
