Works

[Andrzej127]

I tried Works ability from WML Abilities and it didn't work for me. I put first two pieces of code to my abilities.cfg and the last one to my unit file. I gave Works ability to my faction leader. Did I do something wrong or this code is obsolete and no longer works?

[Andrzej127]

I changed:

Code: Select all

[filter]
	#your filter here... for example type=Peasant
[/filter]

to:

Code: Select all

[filter]
	type=my_unit_id
[/filter]

Maybe this is the problem?

Ability and event are not connected. Event should check units with peasant_works, not by type. Also, dont use [leadership] unless it is intentional to provide immunity to negative leaderships.

[Andrzej127]

I did:

Code: Select all

[filter]
	ability=peasant_works
[/filter]

It's still not working.

I also used [dummy] instead of [leadership]. Did I do this correct?

[Ravana]

Yes. Then use the common debug ways, such as checking that inspect includes the event, debug messages, temporarily disabled filters and so on.

I put second piece of code (event) into:

Code: Select all

#define WORKS_EVENT
#enddef

I put {WORKS_EVENT} into my scenario code. The ability works now.

The problem is it's giving gold to every player on the map. How can I fix it?

[Ravana]

Specify side to whom you want to give gold.

[Andrzej127]

I did:

Code: Select all

[filter]
	side=$side_number
	ability=peasant_works
[/filter]

It works perfectly now. Thanks for help.
