Trouble making a civ change to another while using same Team Number in WBS!

GUSTAVUS II · May 16, 2009

I'm making a mod called All History.
I need to make a civ become a another civ while using the same world builder team
number. I won't have the limitations of total civs in my game if I figure this out!

Code:

#TURN 200: CARTHAGE CHANGES TO VANDALS
		elif(iGameTurn == 200):
			#Carthage Changes Leadership
			iNewPlayer = 0    # Player ID (= player's position in list) in your Map
			self.CarthagebecomesVandal(iNewPlayer, 13, 36)[CODE]


[CODE]def CarthagebecomesVandal(self, iNewPlayer, iX, iY):
                pNewPlayer = gc.getPlayer(iNewPlayer)
		if(pNewPlayer.isAlive()):
			#Create new Player
			pNewPlayer.setPlayable(True)
			g.addPlayer(iNewPlayer, pNewPlayer.getTeam(),pNewPlayer.getPersonalityType(), pNewPlayer.getCivilizationType(pNewPlayer,1))
         		pNewPlayer.initUnit(gc.getInfoTypeForString("UNIT_WORKER"), iX, iY, UnitAITypes.NO_UNITAI, DirectionTypes.DIRECTION_NORTH)
                        #Add a message on screen
			CyInterface().addMessage(g.getActivePlayer(),true,15,"Year %s: The (%s) have had a revolution !" %(g.getGameTurnYear(), pNewPlayer.getCivilizationDescription(pNewPlayer.getCivilizationType())),'',0,'',ColorTypes(11), 1, 1, True,True)

                return[CODE]

I AM SPECIFICLY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS LINE ONLY:

[CODE]pNewPlayer.getCivilizationType(pNewPlayer,1))[CODE]
 THE NUMBER ONE IS SUPPOSEDLY THE INTIGER I NEED TO SPECIFY THE SECOND CIV IN MY CIVILIZTION_INFOS LIST                                                             

I get "Argument Error: Python argument types in
  CyPlayer.getCivilizationType(CyPlayer,CyPlayer,int)
did not match C++ signature:
  getCivilizationType(class CyPlayer{lvalue})

I tried to figure this out on my own, I could find nothing on google or fanaticsforums
about this problem. Please Help.

Without checking the other code-parts:
getCivilizationType works without any arguments, just

PHP:

pNewPlayer.getCivilizationType

It's a read-function, not a write-function.

You know the API/or this API?

GUSTAVUS II · May 17, 2009

I'm looking for a write function that will change a playing civ's complete idenity mid-game, I saw something in Rhye's Mod similar that just changes leaders midgame.

Code:

BeginPlayer
       (no change wanted)-Team=1    
  (change wanted)	LeaderType=LEADER_RAGNAR
  (change wanted)	LeaderName=Ragnar
  (change wanted)	CivDesc=Empire viking

  (change wanted)	CivAdjective=Viking
  (change wanted)	FlagDecal=Art/Interface/TeamColor/FlagDECAL_Viking.dds
  (change wanted)	WhiteFlag=0
  (change wanted)CivType=CIVILIZATION_VIKING
  (change wanted)	Color=PLAYERCOLOR_LIGHT_PURPLE
  (change wanted)	ArtStyle=ARTSTYLE_EUROPEAN
	PlayableCiv=1
	MinorNationStatus=0
	StartingGold=0
	StartingX=23, StartingY=39
	StateReligion=

	CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_LABOR, Civic=CIVIC_TRIBALISM
	CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_ECONOMY, Civic=CIVIC_DECENTRALIZATION
	CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_RELIGION, Civic=CIVIC_PAGANISM
	Handicap=HANDICAP_NOBLE
EndPlayer[CODE]

By the way sorry for the strange formatting, the scripts for the fonts 
haven't been working.

EmperorFool · May 18, 2009

The closing tag at the end needs a / in it: [/CODE]

The_J · May 18, 2009

Not sure, but addPlayer with the right arguments shoud do it.

GUSTAVUS II · May 18, 2009

Not sure, but addPlayer with the right arguments shoud do it.

I'm searching for those right arguments, I'm sure it's easily doable with addplayer
plus the right civinfos number argument.

The_J · May 19, 2009

Ah, sorry, didn't really see the problem.

Your last argument for addPlayer has to be OldPlayer.getID (), so you might have to check the ID first before calling your function, or you have to give the function the old CyPlayer instance as an argument.

GUSTAVUS II · Sep 11, 2009

I Still haven't found something that works yet.

Let's say you have two civs in XML one being Rome, other being Papal States.
If you wanted to change the civ idenity(Team ID in Worldbuilder Save) for
Team 0 from Rome to Papal State, what would a be a good sample code for
this?

The_J · Sep 11, 2009

There's no direct way to do it.
You would have to create one or two new players, switch all the units, cities, etc. from the old ones to the new ones, and then move them switched back.

Why do you ask? I can't see any real usage for something like that.

GUSTAVUS II · Sep 12, 2009

I am making a historical world mod called All History with a plan to have the non-player controlled civs change artwork and names according to historical dates.

Something Like This Would be an Example:

ANCIENT MEDEVIL MODERN

ISRAEL UNDER DAVID---KINGDOM OF JERUSALEM ----MODERN ISRAEL
RAGNAR'S DENMARK---CHRISTIAN IV'S DENMARK
VIKING SEDEN--------MEDEVIL SWEDEN
ROME----------------PAPAL STATES----------------MODERN ITALY
SAXONS--CHARLEMAGNE--HRE/BRANDENBURG/PRUSSIA---GERMANY
ANGLO-SAXONS------ENGLAND--------------------GREAT BRITIAN
MACEDONIA----------DUCHY OF ATHENS---------MODERN GREECE

This allows for an more authentic historical game.
Could it be done by killing off a civ then immediately replacing
its artinfos or civinfos?
I would like something similiar to the dynamic of Rhye's and Fall(The
Leaders change over time). Do you understand my goal now?

The_J · Sep 12, 2009

We have also talked here about it.

I guess, it's really time to do it and put it in the database.

Here's a simple hardcoded example:

PHP:

	def onBeginPlayerTurn(self, argsList):
		'Called at the beginning of a players turn'
		iGameTurn, iPlayer = argsList
		if iGameTurn ==2:
                        if iPlayer==1:
                                pPlayer = gc.getPlayer(iPlayer)                                
                                PlayerTeamID = gc.getTeam(pPlayer.getTeam()).getID()
                                iciv = pPlayer.getCivilizationType ()                                
                                leaderid = gc.getInfoTypeForString( 'LEADER_MEHMED' )
                                CyGame().addPlayer(17,leaderid,iciv)
                                otherPlayer = gc.getPlayer(17)
                                NumCities = pPlayer.getNumCities ()
                                otherteam = gc.getTeam(gc.getPlayer(17).getTeam())                                                              
                                otherteam.addTeam(PlayerTeamID)                                
                                for i in range (NumCities):
                                        TheCity = pPlayer.getCity(i)
                                        otherPlayer.acquireCity(TheCity,False,False)

This will "replace" the leader of the second civ in the second turn with mehmet.
I'll have to change the units, etc, make the ID dynamic, etc,
Shouldn't be too hard, i'll probably do it in the next days.

Sad thing here: It doesn't work for the human player

.
If anybody has an idea, how to do this...

The_J · Sep 17, 2009

I hope somebody else will look in here.

The automatically change of leaders works nearly, but i have several problems, which i don't understand.

1. problem: Some stats are not re-applied.
Like you can see here:

Spoiler :

PHP:

for iNumTeams in range(gc.getMAX_TEAMS ()):                                                        
                                                        if iNumTeams == NewTeamID:
                                                                continue                                                        
                                                        LoopTeam = gc.getTeam(iNumTeams)
                                                        if LoopTeam.isOpenBorders(NewTeamID):
                                                                OpenBordersStatus.append(True)
                                                        else:
                                                                OpenBordersStatus.append(False)
                                                        if LoopTeam.isVassal(NewTeamID):
                                                                MasterStatus.append(True)
                                                        else:
                                                                MasterStatus.append(False)
                                                        if NewTeam.isVassal(iNumTeams):
                                                                VassalStatus.append(True)
                                                        else:
                                                                VassalStatus.append(False)
                                                        if NewTeam.isAtWar(iNumTeams):
                                                                WarStatus.append(True)                                                                
                                                        else:
                                                                WarStatus.append(False)
                                                        if NewTeam.isDefensivePact(iNumTeams):
                                                                DefPactStatus.append(True)
                                                        else:
                                                                DefPactStatus.append(False)
                                                        WarWearinessStatusOwn.append(NewTeam.getWarWeariness(iNumTeams))
                                                        WarWearinessStatusOther.append(LoopTeam.getWarWeariness(NewTeamID))
                                                        EspionageStatusOwn.append(NewTeam.getEspionagePointsAgainstTeam(iNumTeams))
                                                        EspionageStatusOther.append(LoopTeam.getEspionagePointsAgainstTeam(NewTeamID))

i save all the diplomatic values like open borders, vassal status, espionage points, etc. in several lists (yes, stupid, should have made a new class, i know it).

After that, i kill the old player, and give the new player these values:

Vassals: Works.
Master of somebody: works.
Declaring war: works.
Re-signing defensive pacts: doesn't work.
Re-signing open borders: doesn't work.
Adding the espionage points: doesn't work.

I have really completly no idea, why the last 3 things don't work.
Does anybody have an idea?
(intendation is right, only appears wrong here)

Another problem: How can i sign a treaty about resource trading?
Haven't found anything like that in the API

I don't need to do the switch for human players, but thanks for the help.

I entered the following code:

Code:

# When a turn begins :
	def onBeginGameTurn(self, argsList):
		iGameTurn, = argsList  

#TURN 1 : CIV SWITCHING
                #Vikings Changes Leadership
		if (iGameTurn ==1):

I GET THIS ERROR:

PHP:

Do you understand the problem?

Are you using a custom DLL that added a 4th parameter to CyGame::addPlayer()? BTS 3.19's function takes only 3 int parameters as you have in your code. This error messages means that the C++ function takes a 4th int.

Someone should update the API to the latest version :mischief:

...

I don't to do the switch for human players, but thanks for the help.

You should look better in the attached files, because there i've added more things, but with the mentioned problems.

I checked the C++ code itself before posting that, and it only takes 3 int parameters (both CyGame and CvGame). :confused:

The_J · Sep 21, 2009

Ups, sorry :blush:

.
I have also the downloadable API from Zebra9 here, and this says, that the addPlayer function took 4 arguments (last one: teamid) in the sdk version when the API was created.

GUSTAVUS II · Sep 21, 2009

Is there way to just change the "CivType" with a number or
gc.getInfoTypeForString"CIVILIZATION_CARTHAGE" in the right line of code?

Or could you change all of the artwork and infos for a particular civ on a set
turn?

I was using standard DLL. No C++ modifications.

EmperorFool · Sep 21, 2009

It says it wants another int parameter. Try adding 0 as the 4th parameter and see what happens.

I've tried that and got

PHP:

RunTime Error: unidentifiable C++ error

as a
result.

Trouble making a civ change to another while using same Team Number in WBS!
