build village

[ERROR1025]

I hope use [set_menu_item] add a "use 14 gold build village on map any" and "have build village",but WML is not work
use village WML in build.cfg and ANL.cfg(use ANL define)
edit:
and i hope player can any time(only need in player turn) give other player village,but I have absolutely no idea how to do it.(Alliances_Mod not have reference)

Did you post all your files? I don't see an event tag that activates the code in build.cfg. The [set_menu_item] tag must go inside an [event] tag. You can use a prestart event for this. Also, you have $x, $y, and $side in build.cfg, but I don't see any place where these variables were defined.

In the future, please don't tell us that "the WML doesn't work." Tell us what you want to happen, and what actually happens.

in mian cfg start:

{~add-ons/ProWesnothStart-modf/ANL.cfg}
{~add-ons/ProWesnothStart-modf/ability.cfg}
{~add-ons/ProWesnothStart-modf/build.cfg}
i try use $x $y $side get player's side and hex,or is need other WML?
add [event] can not work,and game report bug:
[if] didn't find any [then],[elseif],or [else] children.
i know the report is expected(use change Gold/V WML)
not have other bug info.
For the needs behind "edit", I need similar WML reference,i don't know how do it.

{~add-ons/ProWesnothStart-modf/build.cfg}

This line adds the code to your project, but it doesn't run that code. The code must be in an [event]. Otherwise, the code will never run.

game report bug:
[if] didn't find any [then],[elseif],or [else] children.

This is not related to a new event, it is a problem with every [event] in main. The simplest [if] tag must look like this:

Code: Select all

[if]
	# condition
	[then]
		# commands to run when the condition is true
	[/then]
[/if]

I know you have other problems, but you need to make _main.cfg run without errors first, then you need to make the menu item appear. When that works correctly, you can focus on the next problems.

i try use $x $y $side get player's side and hex,or is need other WML?

The side currently playing is stored in $side_number, not $side. Inside [set_menu_item], the hex the user selected in stored in $x1 and $y1, not $x and $y. But, this information is not useful until you get the menu item to appear.

Edit: I should also mention that the code for the sliders is going to do nonsensical things, even if you fix the errors so that _main.cfg can run. You should probably just remove the slider events for now so you can focus on the menu item. That is the easier problem to fix.

is work,but is can not work:if gold <14,player can build villvge(i need block player gold < 14 build)
and auto delete forest,if have forest in hex,i hope only add villvge

[Ravana]

Greater_than_equal_to is not recognized key of [variable].

[ERROR1025]

Greater_than_equal_to is not recognized key of [variable].

you sure?wiki have
https://wiki.wesnoth.org/ConditionalAct ... ariable.5D
if it,how check gold >= 14?

[Ravana]

That one has greater_than_equal_to but no Greater_than_equal_to.

You also need to somehow fill variable of gold, possibly by storing.

[ERROR1025]

How get play gold?use value=$side_number.gold in event not work.

You should go to the wiki and read the list of the tags that are available on the right side of the screen. That works better than guessing, which seems to be your current method. One of the tags in the list is [store_gold]. You can use something like this:

Code: Select all

[store_gold]
	side=$side_number
	variable=current_sides_gold
[/store_gold]

Ok,is work,but auto delete forest,if have forest in build hex,i hope only add villvge.

Wouldn't a person cut down trees to build a house?

You seem to want one hex to be forest and village at the same time, which can't happen in the game. There must be separate terrains in each hex. If you mean that you want to see a building with trees surrounding it very close to its walls, you would need to draw that yourself, and create terrain codes for it too. I don't think anyone has done this before because it would be a lot of work: There would be thousands of possibilities of tree and building types mixed together, and it wouldn't really benefit the game very much.

I use code check variable ovwer
var GVL:

Code: Select all

		[store_locations]
			x=$x1
			y=$y1
			variable=GVL
		[/store_locations]

Use GVL:

Code: Select all

            [variable]
                name=side_number
                numerical_equals=$GVL.owner_side
            [/variable]

But can not check owner(if have the code,all is false ,else not have the code,all is true)how fix?
I'm read wiki [store_locations] and [if] but can not fix.

The code you posted works. The error must be somewhere else. If you post the whole scenario, we will probably be able to find it.
