At first glance, everything seems correct.

unexpected, right?))

I'll check this huge feature now and see how it works.

Yes, it worked. Thank you very much for your patience and understanding!

It turned out that there was another small error in the script, related to DoNotGiveTurnToPlayerAIIfNoTownsAndActiveHeroes(4, true)

Here's the thing. I set the second argument to true, and everything works. But as soon as I need to disable this function and set it to nil, everything breaks. What should the second argument be to disable this command?

0, probably.

Is there any point in disabling it?

I believe there is. I'm not sure if it will work well with MoveHero.

If the hero is disconnected and doesn't have a town, then yes.

Yeah, that’s what I thought. Yes, everything worked out, thank you.

decided to reread the scripting manual again; I'm glad there aren't that many questions left.

RazeBuilding(objectName); -- does this destroy dwellings? Or not? And what does it turn them into?
SetStandState -- what are "stands" and how do they work? What is this even about?

RazeBuilding destroys a dwelling, leaving nothing behind. I have repeatedly mentioned stands in this thread and in "current issues." It is an object of type AdvMapStandShared.

That’s what I thought. Thanks.

Oh, and here’s something else I’d like to know. How do I stop the sound from playing?
And is it necessary in this situation?

SOUND_EFFECT_WALL = "/Sounds/_(Sound)/Spells/FireWall.xdb#xpointer(/Sound)";
---
Play3DSound(SOUND_EFFECT_WALL, GetObjectPosition('Nymus'));

I don’t really understand how to do this. I’ll look for it in other maps, but no one has used StopPlaySound in the campaign maps.

Choose a non-looping sound.

This is problematic. The wall burns around Nimus for a while, then goes out.

Okay... I'll do it with a fire explosion instead.

I read the manual. Judging by what is written there, you can do the following: ``` sound_id = Play2DSound("sound") -- or 3D ... StopPlaySound(sound_id)

Ah, yes, that’s right, that’s probably a good way to do it. (I don’t have sound in the game, so I can’t check.) ;)

Could you please tell me why this piece of script isn't working? The creatures are created as expected, but everything that follows their creation is not executed. ``` elseif IsObjectiveVisible("Sec108", 1)==nil then SetObjectiveState("Sec108", 2, 1); SetObjectiveVisible("Sec108", true, 1); SetObjectiveState("Sec109", 2, 1); SetObjectiveVisible("Sec109", true, 1); MessageBox(GetMapDataPath().."pald1.txt"); pald=1; CreateMonster("palasd1", 12, 1, 20, 43, 0, 0, 0, 270); CreateMonster("palasd2", 12, 1, 135, 55, 0, 0, 0, 90); CreateMonster("palasd3", 12, 1, 123, 125, 0, 0, 0, 0); CreateMonster("palasd4", 12, 1, 158, 130, 0, 0, 0, 270); CreateMonster("palasd5", 12, 1, 84, 182, 0, 0, 0, 270); CreateMonster("palasd5", 12, 1, 88, 149, 0, 0, 0, 270); if k==0 then CreateMonster("prots1", 42, 60, 18, 43, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots2", 56, 60, 137, 55, 0, 1, 1, 270); CreateMonster("prots3", 84, 60, 123, 123, 0, 1, 1, 180); CreateMonster("prots4", 105, 60, 156, 130, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots5", 130, 60, 82, 182, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots6", 91, 40, 86, 149, 0, 1, 1, 90); elseif k==1 then CreateMonster("prots1", 42, 100, 18, 43, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots2", 56, 100, 137, 55, 0, 1, 1, 270); CreateMonster("prots3", 84, 100, 123, 123, 0, 1, 1, 180); CreateMonster("prots4", 105, 100, 156, 130, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots5", 130, 100, 82, 182, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots6", 91, 70, 86, 149, 0, 1, 1, 90); elseif k==2 then CreateMonster("prots1", 42, 150, 18, 43, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots2", 56, 150, 137, 55, 0, 1, 1, 270); CreateMonster("prots3", 84, 150, 123, 123, 0, 1, 1, 180); CreateMonster("prots4", 105, 150, 156, 130, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots5", 130, 150, 82, 182, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots6", 91, 100, 86, 149, 0, 1, 1, 90); else CreateMonster("prots1", 42, 200, 18, 43, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots2", 56, 200, 137, 55, 0, 1, 1, 270); CreateMonster("prots3", 84, 200, 123, 123, 0, 1, 1, 180); CreateMonster("prots4", 105, 200, 156, 130, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots5", 130, 200, 82, 182, 0, 1, 1, 90); CreateMonster("prots6", 91, 150, 86, 149, 0, 1, 1, 90); end; sleep(4); for i=1,6 do SetObjectEnabled("palasd"..i, nil); SetObjectEnabled("prots"..i, nil); end; sleep(4); for i=1,6 do SetMonsterSelectionType("palasd"..i, 0); SetMonsterSelectionType("prots"..i, 0); end; sleep(4); for i=1,6 do PlayObjectAnimation("palasd"..i, "attack00", IDLE); PlayObjectAnimation("prots"..i, "attack00", IDLE); end; for i=1,6 do SetRegionBlocked("pasd"..i, true, 7); end; Trigger(6, "pasd1", "pasd1F"); Trigger(6, "pasd2", "pasd2F"); Trigger(6, "pasd3", "pasd3F"); Trigger(6, "pasd4", "pasd4F"); Trigger(6, "pasd5", "pasd5F"); Trigger(6, "pasd6", "pasd6F"); ```

I think I found the error; you can delete the message
