RoMgameUtils.py
I have a rather specific question. My group (fx artist, animator, modeller and programmer) has been enjoying updating our medieval exclusive version of "A New Dawn" for our pastime enjoyment. We have graphics unit artists with Maya/Max animation suites and make commercial level unit animation and texture maps from high resolution normal bakes. We redid the combat in our old Bts mod and tried to translate my python scripts to "A New Dawn." I have never worked with the Bug mod. Simple changes were easy to integrate in the RoMeventmanager.py but I can find no documentation for CvgameUtils.py. After 5 hours, I have concluded that there was a RoMgameUtils.py loaded from the configuration file only prior to the Bug mod being integrated?
http://sourceforge.net/p/anewdawn/c...nd - A New Dawn/Assets/Python/RoMGameUtils.py
It appears that the BUGeventmanager has most of the functionality of the the CvgameUtils.py that was in Bts and it should be an integration of all of those original features. But in the mod itself there are more than 30 files to read through (such as UnitUtils.py etc...). I could find no direct tutorial for the Bug mod (which is incredible and self-explains why we wan't to use it). Particularly time consuming is the activation of the utilities scripts? I am not even certain that the python callbacks are correct.
Would it be possible for the modding community to showcase a simple example tutorial for the BUG mod? Just telling the BUG mod to accept a independent gameutility file that does something simple ..."like change the upgrade cost." Activate that in the configuration file .ini and python callback?
Can anyone (Zapata?, Afforess?, Playtyping?) elucidate how to translate my proven scripts (works in Bts, brokenstar, final frontier, next war...etc...) regarding the GAME UTILITIES only (the RoMevent manager is trivial but acts on ON functions and not on the pre-ON functions and variables accessed through the old CvgameUtils.py).
Can I directly code into the BUGeventmanager to access the old CvgameUtils.py?
Thank you for your exchange of information, our team appreciates your hard work,
