Cantona66 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I really want more country slots, in my mod i expect that i need approx 80 countries. One question, when a country has surrendered, is it possible for the country to reappear as a free country? Exampple: Norway surrenders to Germany and then 1 tile in UK becomes Norway.

Bill101 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 The easiest solution would be to have a tile in the UK that contains a town, and is set to be an alternative capital for Norway. This does mean that Norway won't surrender, but a LOOP script could always be used to remove all Norwegians units in Norway from play when Oslo is captured, and a DECISION event could be used to provide the Germans with plunder.

Cantona66 Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 Thanks for the answer, how does loop scripts work? I do not want only Oslo to be taken before this happens, Narvik, Bergen and Trondheim should also be taken out, is it possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kommandant Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Does making Norway have a place to live in UK let you buy norway units after germany takes over everything... It makes no sense to let you buy the units of an army made of norwagians if there is none to be recruted... You could just take away every pnit norwy cn buy, but that could lead to, if norway is liberated, you can't buy more units... About your second question, as far as I know, you can make a secundary capital for norway in all these towns and the last one in britain... It's like serbia in WW1 where all the towns are secundary capitals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cantona66 Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 I wonder, i of use this loop script to remove all norwegian units, i still need to move in German units in every norwegian cities/towns to make them German, since i do not want to use territory scripts (then it will not be norway anymore).

Bill101 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Yes, the Germans would still need to occupy whatever capitals you set for Norway, so it may be that a loop script is unnecessary if the Germans have to occupy all those places. I was assuming that Norway would surrender when Oslo was taken, but if that isn't the case, then just having their last alternative capital be somewhere in the UK should work, and it will also allow for Free Norwegian units to be built there.

Cantona66 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Yes, but it will be a problem to have the germans to occupy every town in Norway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cantona66 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 How about the loop` Shall i put all map positions as start positions for the country in question in the loop and no finish position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 It will need a finish position, but if you set the length as a number of turns longer than the campaign, then the units should be gone for long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cantona66 Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Thanks! One more question, does anyone have a simple solution for addiong all Start positions to the scripts? I can use the editor and chose F6 to mark all positions but the they will be named map_positions and i will need to change every one to start-position=very big manual work.

I use the notepad++ for editing scripts. With that, it is easy to replace strings and navigate in big files, not mentioning changing map position in all files at one click etc. You can even define a new language and you get visual aid and possibility to expand/collapse events in the file...

There are many scripts that needs range in GOLD. One idea if you using notepad++ to do with 2 subsequent replace (e.g. if you want to insert RANGE after LINK line): first set search mode to: regular expression find: ^#(LINK)(.*) replace with: #\1\2\3<#RANGE = 1 then set search mode: extended find: < replace with: \r\n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
