Re: a small request to era-makers
It checks if you have TRAIT_ATTUNED, then adds the factions itself. This would work fine through ID changes, so long as you don't change the name of the EoM folder.

Re: a small request to era-makers
We could try to test this when I release the next version of Era of Myths, but I'd like some feedback from the EE maintainer before I do.
"There are two kinds of old men in the world. The kind who didn't go to war and who say that they should have lived fast died young and left a handsome corpse and the old men who did go to war and who say that there is no such thing as a handsome corpse."

Re: a small request to era-makers
I think this idea is excellent if it doesn't end up causing problems with era combinations.

Re: a small request to era-makers
Now the only other issue is if it kills its utility by being in a combined era (since the combined ID cannot really be updated).

Re: a small request to era-makers
Sure, that makes it so the keeping-in-sync thing doesn't work for combined eras, but is there any way it's worse than not having it? It seems like you're complaining about a lack of a feature rather than about a bug.Aethaeryn wrote:Now the only other issue is if it kills its utility by being in a combined era (since the combined ID cannot really be updated).

Re: a small request to era-makers
It might work most likely. The EE has a deteckt.cfg file, and this file could contain a macro including the ID. If it also contains another macro including the Version even the combined Era could stay sync.*Aethaeryn wrote:Now the only other issue is if it kills its utility by being in a combined era (since the combined ID cannot really be updated).
*I think you can use macros inside the ID,
Code: Select all
id=ee_eom_default_v{GET_EE_VERSION}_delta3

Re: a small request to era-makers
Hm, I would like to expand my original request that seems to have found some good use: only do it if the versions are incompatible (I assume that from time to time you make an art-only update, those should not cause OOS and so don't need a new id).

Would this still allow campaigns_client.py to automatically update installed addons?
