Scions of Patria: Seeking ideas, feedback for undead civ module

[Arctic Circle]

Been working on that

At least Jotnar will (I think) a lot easier. I am very structured and document like a maniac. I even have a file that describes how to do it with each file and entry.

Now I am just speculating. Any chance you can use the 'sick green cloud' from unhealthy cities, make it slightly more transparent and remove the color? Then you'd have a kind of fog on 'haunted lands'.

Could work with Sidar as well somehow...

That sounds pretty cool actually... Especially so if it's possible to incorporate that into the existing terrain...

It's a good possibility. The main impediment is still lack of knowledge. I've resized, recolored, and removed. Adding anything to a model is something I've yet to figure out.

agreed, that should look good and is quite fitting indeed

On the reqDarkC python - does the following still do roughly what you had in mind? The comments helped with actually understanding it, but I rewrote it to hopefully be a little easier to read in general - I just want to check that I got the functionality right...

def reqDarkC(caster):
	pPlot = caster.plot()
	iPelemoc = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNIT_COUNCIL')
	iThemoch = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNIT_COUNCIL2')
	iAlcinus0 = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNIT_MITP')
	iAlcinus = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNIT_MIT')
	iAlcinus2 = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNIT_MIT2')
	
	bPelemocPresent = false
	bThemochPresent = false
	bAlcinusPresent = false

	for i in range(pPlot.getNumUnits()):
		pUnit = pPlot.getUnit(i)

		if pUnit.getUnitType() == iPelemoc:
			bPelemocPresent = true    

		if pUnit.getUnitType() == iThemoch:
			bThemocPresent = true

		if pUnit.getUnitType() == iAlcinus0 or pUnit.getUnitType() == iAlcinus or pUnit.getUnitType() == iAlcinus2:
			bAlcinusPresent = true
			
	if bPelemocPresent and bThemocPresent and bAlcinusPresent:
		return true
	
	return False

I believe so. (And it's nice to see how it should be written.) I'll try it out to make sure.

Should probably make a new thread in the FF forum now that it's released, at the very least to explain the civ a bit.


Edit: Actually, turns out I have a question of my own lol. Why was Alexi's name changed?

Edit 2: Looks to be quite a few changes.... Any possibility of a log detailing them? Like to know what's going on lol.
