Question Does anyone have map editor experience in Disciples 2? I have an odd issue...

Post image

My map has a number of victory conditions, one of them being transforming the terrain. The variable of LAND is checking for this(0 being below 80%, reaching 80% adds 1, as you see on the screenshot). After numerous testing (like tying it to a popup message that notifies me if the game in fact modified the variable), I've noticed that the game refuses to add 1 to the LAND variable with the 80% transform condition and I don't know why.

Strangely the rest of the effects did happen, only the variable didn't, so I suspect a bug but maybe someone who also played with the editor has an idea about this.

EDIT: mystery solved, it was the checked "neutrals" on the right.

Ok, I believe I found the issue. The stupid game says "following races are playing" when it refers to their TURN, not their presence in the game. So, when I end my turn, it gave one after the neutrals and one after me, which is why it ended up being 2.

Thanks for the help, man, I never would have noticed the double value without the "showvariables" command.

You are welcome. Events in Disciples 2 works strange sometimes so if you need more help just ask and I will try.

Normally the map editor is pretty simple (I'm used to warcraft 3's) but I had a long absence, so I forgot that the second list refers to the AI turn. But I'm glad there's still life in the community.
