Shrine of the Champion requirements

[TravellingHat]

Greetings all

Does anyone know the requirements for the Shrine of Champion. According to the paedia there are none, but in testing this, I got Alzakan killed but was not offered the Shrine of the Champion as a build option.

 

[reverend oats]

Hmm, maybe it was disabled for Alzakan becaese his mirror mechanic would have messed it up. Otherwise I don't know.

Is it in your capital? (without you building it, like it should be?)

 

[MagisterCultuum]

?
are you saying that it is created automatically now? When did that change?

 

[MacGyverInSpace]

Wait....I was thinking of RFC's 2/3 UHV building

 

[Tobbe_1]

Nope, it is not built automatically. You still have to build it and it works quite well for me: lost Rathus with Sidar and could build it (0.30f). Really seems to be a Alazkan-problem...

I've also never been able to build is as the Luchurip (probably due to the fact that you can rebuild their hero)

if eBuilding == gc.getInfoTypeForString('BUILDING_SHRINE_OF_THE_CHAMPION'):
iHero = cf.getHero(pPlayer)
if iHero == -1:
return True
if CyGame().isUnitClassMaxedOut(iHero, 0) == False:
return True
if pPlayer.getUnitClassCount(iHero) > 0:
return True





def getHero(self, pPlayer):
iHero = -1
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_BANNOR'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_DONAL')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_MALAKIM'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_CHALID')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_ELOHIM'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_CORLINDALE')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_MERCURIANS'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_BASIUM')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_LANUN'):

if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_KURIOTATES'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_EURABATRES')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_LJOSALFAR'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_GILDEN')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_KHAZAD'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_MAROS')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_SIDAR'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_RATHUS')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_HIPPUS'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_MAGNADINE')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_AMURITES'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_GOVANNON')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_BALSERAPHS'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_LOKI')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_CLAN_OF_EMBERS'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_RANTINE')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_SVARTALFAR'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_KAEL')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_CALABIM'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_LOSHA')
if pPlayer.getCivilizationType() == gc.getInfoTypeForString('CIVILIZATION_SHEAIM'):
iHero = gc.getInfoTypeForString('UNITCLASS_ABASHI')
return iHero



That is the code determining what the hero unit of each civ is (I don't feel like fixing the indentation). As you can see, it hasn't been updated for Shadow. The Svartalfar hero is defined as Kael, who no longer exists, and the Malakim Hero is still Chalid, who is now the Empyrean Hero.


Edit: I just reported this in the bug thread

 

[TravellingHat]

Ah, right oh, so it's just a coding bug. No worries. Thanks MC.

Mind you, the suggestion that it could be because of his Mirror ability shows a good degree of lateral thinking!
