Posts from Scripts Auto-translated

I encountered some kind of mysterious problem... almost mystical. In the script, I made a transformation of a town of one faction into another, and after that, I prohibited building certain structures in it. However, after the transformation, these structures are still available for construction. Here's an example of the code:

function transformation()
  Trigger(OBJECT_CAPTURE_TRIGGER, 'town', nil);
  TransformTown('town', TOWN_NECROMANCY);
  SetTownBuildingLimitLevel('town', TOWN_BUILDING_BLACKSMITH, 0);
end;

Trigger(OBJECT_CAPTURE_TRIGGER, 'town', 'transformation');

... hmm, will it help? I mean, the transformation doesn't happen instantly, and I'm setting the limit in the old city? And how long should the delay be? Thank you in advance.

Added 7 minutes later
didn't help.

I initially gave it a 5, but after the delay, I checked the city's allegiance, and by that point, the city was already Necropolis, so it's not about the slips...

Okay, try this: use the same script, then exit the town after capturing it, and then re-enter it by clicking on it twice. Is TOWN_BUILDING_BLACKSMITH the marketplace, or what?

either a slave market or a trading guild (you can check the resources for a more precise answer).

Okay, but try this: after capturing a town, exit it, then double-click on it to enter it again.
Is TOWN_BUILDING_BLACKSMITH the marketplace, or what?

smithy, so after capturing a castle, the hero doesn't immediately teleport to the castle, what's the point? The castle is captured, transforms, and the hero stands near it; go inside, go outside, it's still the same :smile39:

No, that's the thing, if it automatically logs in, the building doesn't have time to be destroyed. After logging in again, everything is fine. I'm sure of it because I did this with dwellings and a tavern. So, I must have made a mistake somewhere else. :)

Well, it was something like this (found it in an old map draft :). Basically, it destroys the tavern and dwellings for the player and restores them for the AI after capturing the town. It's designed for 6 towns. It worked fine.... I don't think I missed anything.
Oh, I noticed that the function is completely different for you :D

That's the thing, my building hasn't been constructed yet, and setting a limit on its construction doesn't work... after the transformation.

It doesn't really matter if the building is constructed. The function imposes a limit, in this case, a prohibition. If it is built, it destroys it.
DestroyTownBuildingToLevel - I am talking about this function.
