Title: [SOLVED] Setting a mission in a specific city.
Post by: efrenespartano on October 28, 2018, 04:27:39 pm

Hello there!

 I would like to make a specific mission of a city. I know that I can place missions in particular regions using "regionWeights", but I would like to assign missions to cities. I have planned to do rescue missions of important characters in Vladivostok and to recreate the rocket launching bases of Cape Canaveral and Baikonur for some space missions. Thanks in advance!

This is the simplest method:

Code: [Select]

regions:
  - type: CHEYENNE_MOUNTAIN
    missionZones:
      -
        - [252.694, 252.694, -38.989, -38.989, -100, STR_CHEYENNE_MOUNTAIN]
Then, you use missionScripts to run a mission on the CHEYENNE_MOUNTAIN region, and the alienMission must be set to run on MissionZone 0 (by setting spawnZone: 0)

Using regions.rul is also possible:

Code: [Select]

regions:
  - type: STR_NORTH_AMERICA
    missionZones:
      -
        - [192, 212, -62, -56]
        - [195, 225, -70, -68]

Again, you use missionScripts to run a mission on any region that contains the specific cities, and the alienMission run must be set to run on MissionZone 6 (on this case)

What Hobbes said...
... or you can use an existing region and define an additional mission zone in it with just one city and assign this mission zone to your special mission.

Both should work.

I'm glad that there are many ways to do it. Thank you so much, Hobbes and Meridian!
