[NFP] Is there a Disaster Triggering function for lua now?

[Windflier]

With the new Soothsayer unit added, I was hoping there would finally be a way to trigger nature disaster however we wish, but I can't find any info about it for now. Does anyone knows yet?

 

[Gedemon]

there are functions for that since GS IIRC.

Really? I was searching through the doc and the CFC, resulting no luck.
Could you tell me where I can find it?

try the firetuner files (.lpt ?), in the debug folder

I was searching through them before, at the time GS just out. But maybe they change something after, I will try it again, thanks.

First, thanks a lot, I found this function: GameRandomEvents.ApplyEvent(kEvent), which can trigger disaster whenever I want.
Second, I would like to set a peculiar location to the disaster happend, for what I tested, I found out it's just default to random location.
There is a paramate for the input though, simply called "Location", but what I can't understand is this variable is just a integer, not a dyadic array which is supposed to be represent as X and Y. Could you figure out what this paramate is used for?

from the .ltp file

kEvent.Location = reactor.PlotIndex

so it's a plot index, not the coordinates.

you can get the index from a plot object

pPlot:GetIndex()

or from the x,y coordinates (and the map width)

local g_iW, g_iH = Map.GetGridSize()
local index = (y * g_iW) + x
