onSelectionGroupPushMission ???

[ruff_hi]

Does anyone know what 'onSelectionGroupPushMission' does in 'CvEventManager.py' or what the missions are?

def onSelectionGroupPushMission(self, argsList):
'selection group mission'
eOwner = argsList[0]
eMission = argsList[1]
iNumUnits = argsList[2]
listUnitIds = argsList[3]

if (not self.__LOG_PUSH_MISSION):
return
if pHeadUnit:
CvUtil.pyPrint("Selection Group pushed mission %d" %(eMission))

The MissionTypes are defined in XML/Units/Civ4MissionInfos.xml.

O, yea. When you say drag and click a unit to move in the game, you aren't accually giveing any orders directly to the unit. The mission is passes the the unit's selection group. There may only be a single unit in a selection group, but it is still in one.

I don't think it is used by the AI, but I'm not a 100 percent on that. I don't know that in all my tests, the GameUtils.py file's cannotSelectionListMoveInto doesn't ever seem to be called by the AI.

great - thx for the info. That is an XML list of missions. Is there a python connection in there somewhere? One of the parameters in this event is eMission (or similar) ... does anyone have a list of what these represent?

For all the default missions you can call the sdk enum. Using MISSION_MOVE_TO as the example you would, MissionTypes.MISSION_MOVE_TO

You could also use, gc.getInfoTypeForString("MISSION_MOVE_TO") and this would work for the default missions and any other missions added to the missioninfos.xml.
