V9.0 / Follow-up: Bunch of warnings a...

Related topic (v8.* but inherited to v9.3):
"Re: Unmotivated practice melee fighters in arenas" by me

Warning-lines displayed at the beginning of melee fight at arenas. They block the normal message for 20 - 30 seconds.
----
SCRIPT WARNING ON OPCODE 505: Invalid Agent ID: 0; LINE NO 6:
At Mission Template mst_arena_melee_fight trigger no: 33 consequences.

As I wrote in the self-reply to the thread above on 2023-12-12, it is too early to set all 40 agent slots before they spawn.

I experimentally removed the try-block and moved the "agent_set_slot" operation just before the "try_end" of the next trigger 34's exit, and there seems to be no problem. This prevents the warning from appearing and allows normal messages to be displayed without delay.

(Please note that this does not correct the "unmotivated fighters" I pointed out in the topic above.)

V9.0 / Re: Melee (crowd) fight at are...

Last post by tos1 - April 15, 2024, 05:45:30 PM

Follow-up.
After doing hand-disassembly of v9.3, I've just found the cause.
In the mst_arena_melee_fight, "$g_arena_training_num_agents_spawned" is increased twice in total at trigger 34 and 37 (counted from 0) per spawning.

I don't know if it's okay to simply delete one or the other, but after I experimentally deleted the latter, the number of remaining fighters returned to normal (finishing at about 40).

(Among the other issues above, I have also made progress on the WARNING, so I will write a follow-up on another topic.)

Help & Support / WSE2 version 9 update installa...

Last post by jwlbigdog - April 09, 2024, 04:56:15 AM

I'm reposting this from the moddb forum. In summary, when the 9.0 update was released, I was not able to update WSE2. Eventually, I reinstalled after the 9.3 release. Now, although WSE2 correctly displays the version as 9.3, every tool tip says "STR NOT FOUND: ui_etc-etc". I'm not sure what is installed incorrectly at this point. I'm unable to attach a screenshot, as for some reason, the file size is too large.

Appreciate any assistance!

A pet dog blocks to retreat from battle field

It is about an issue where we cannot use the Tab key to leave the battle field when the pet dog is nearby. I disassembled the code and have just found out the cause and the solution.

----

Currently, the code block for dog/wolf is OR of 4 conditions, so when loop variable L2 is the pet dog agent and there is no wolf in the party, it badly proceed to the distance check.

A correct logic should be:
"if (A and B) or (C and D) then skip to next agent"
As you know, if we write this as code as is, we will need to add variables and registers for flags, so let's convert it to "not( AND of not(OR)s )" using De Morgan's law:
"if not ( (not A or not B) and (not C or not D) ) then skip to next agent"
In other words,
"if (not A or not B) and (not C or not D) then check distance"

I don't know if we can have the dog and wolf in the party at the same time, but that case also should cause no problem at the last logic above. That's because the loop variable ":L2" cannot represent two agents at the same time and "if (not TRUE or not TRUE) and (not TRUE or not TRUE)" never happen even if both animal is in the party.

In conclusion, it is necessary to add a try-block as shown below, and the judgement of "$player_wolf_agent_no" must be "neq" immediately after "$wolf_companion", and the 4 judgements and the distance checking must be in the newly added try-block.

A correct code.

After experimentally editing the relevant part of the txt file as shown above, I tried Tab key in cases below and found no problem:
"Only the dog is nearby", "Dog and ally soldier are nearby", "Only enemy soldiers are nearby", "Dog and enemy soldiers are nearby", "Only ally soldiers are nearby", "No one is nearby".

I haven't tried the case where both the dog and wolf are in the party at the same time.

- How to reproduce it/when/why it happens:
Play until you get the pet dog or pet wolf, start a battle, hit Tab key when the dog is near the player. Try that also for all conceivable cases.

V9.0 / Fatal hole in Lorathi arena

Last post by tos1 - March 30, 2024, 08:14:49 PM

I don't know if it was intentional, but the small triangular hole along the wall opposite to the big door in the Lorathi arena is so deep that the player character can't get out if falls into it.



- How to reproduce it/when/why it happens:
Visit "Lorath", "Visit the training grounds", start melee (crowd) fight. Walk to the point farthest from the big door, search for the hole nearby (one of 2 holes), and dive into it.

Last post by tos1 - March 30, 2024, 08:11:04 PM

When the player character (and also other agents?) comes into contact with the covered wooden deck (where the tournament master is standing) at the end near the castle, she/he gets stuck and cannot escape from it.

(We may have a chance to escape by taking a screenshot using Ctrl Insert.)

V9.0 / Beric Dondarion's "book" neede...

Last post by tos1 - March 27, 2024, 09:27:44 AM

(Spoiler)

In the quest "A Lannister always pays his debts" from Beric Dondarion at Hollow Hill:
1. It's hard that the player remembers the need for a book from the Beric's words "You lying ..." and the quest text "Beric Dondarrion has asked ...". (Especially when there was a real-week playing gap between accepting the quest and the battle.) Both texts should include words for the book.
2. The speaker of "You lying ..." and "The only one ..." must be Beric.

Last post by tos1 - March 26, 2024, 11:17:41 AM

The image above is of AWoIaF v8.2 but the code seems to be unchanged for v9.3.

As long as I did disassemble the code in the script dplmc_troop_political_notes_to_s47, it seems that the initialization for s45 is possibly not done before it is used for s47.

s45 is set only while the try_for_range loop (from 35 to < 38) as the 71st (from 0) operation in the script. When the two str_store_string here are skipped, s45 (global scope AFAIK) retains an old value before coming to this script.

V9.0 / Spawn point in the Lorathi are...

Last post by tos1 - March 18, 2024, 03:42:55 PM

During melee fights (crowd) in the arena of Lorath, some participants are trapped behind a large door and cannot enter into the arena, forcing the player to abort the fight using the Tab key. Sometimes also the player character is trapped at the initial random position. Either the spawn point is at wrong position or the closed door is wrong.

As I observed, the participants who were lucky enough to enter the arena seemed to pop out from within the wall near the door.



- How to reproduce it/when/why it happens:
Visit Lorath, visit the arena, take part in melee (crowd) fight, stand near the large door, face it, observe the wall in your left, and wait (i.e. fight) until participants emerge from the wall. As you repeatedly do the fight, there is a chance that you will see a participant or your character trapped on the other side of the door.
