OXCE Suggestions DONE / Re: [DONE] [Suggestion] Geoscape pop-up events
« on: December 16, 2023, 03:07:11 am »More attributes added for events:All these new features are really wonderful
1. music - String ID of the music to play when this event pops up on the Geoscape.
2. everyItemList - A list of item IDs. When this event pops up they are all transferred to the HQ (within 1 hour).
3. randomItemList - A list of item IDs. When this event pops up one of them is selected randomly and transferred to the HQ (within 1 hour).
4. weightedItemList - A weighted list of item IDs. When this event pops up one of them is selected randomly (respecting given weights) and transferred to the HQ (within 1 hour).
Attributes itemList and randomItem have been deprecated (and will be removed in oxce 6.2).
Edit:
5. everyMultiItemList - A list of item IDs and their quantities. When this event pops up they are all transferred to the HQ (within 1 hour).
I hope you know that OpenXCom and OXCE are the best remastered game ever (in this I include both: the best game, and the best way to remaster a game)
I would have a question about eventScripts >> facilityTriggers
Definition of facilityTriggers is: A list of base facilities that can influence the execution of this script. Similar to research triggers; checks the presence of a facility (in any xcom base).
Apparently, it does not wait for a facility to be built. As soon as you build it, event is triggered, even if the facility will be available/functional in 1 month
Is it expected, or do I miss something?
Code: [Select]
eventScripts:
- type: STR_TRAINING_TICKET_MONTHLY_EVENT_SCRIPT
facilityTriggers:
STR_TRAINING_ROOM
eventWeights:
0:
STR_TRAINING_TICKET_MONTHLY_EVENT: 100
#firstMonth: 0
#lastMonth: -1
executionOdds: 100
EDIT: in fact, I think what I wrote does not work, as it triggers even if I don't build anything
I made other attempts writing it differently, unsuccessfully (i.e., the event is triggered after the first hour):
Removing 1 space before STR_TRAINING_ROOM
Code: [Select]
eventScripts:
- type: STR_TRAINING_TICKET_MONTHLY_EVENT_SCRIPT
facilityTriggers:
STR_TRAINING_ROOM
Using bracketsCode: [Select]
eventScripts:
- type: STR_TRAINING_TICKET_MONTHLY_EVENT_SCRIPT
facilityTriggers: [STR_TRAINING_ROOM]
Do as for researchTriggersCode: [Select]
eventScripts:
- type: STR_TRAINING_TICKET_MONTHLY_EVENT_SCRIPT
facilityTriggers:
STR_TRAINING_ROOM: true
EDIT2: forget that, I will do this differently by adding some research, making training tickets availble for purchase, with a monthlyBuyLimit

« on: March 12, 2023, 08:27:27 pm »
I made it work
It's not perfect, main inconvenients are:
- the tickets are sent to one Xcom base (Xcom base 1)
- it's a global amount of tickets (I mean, not depending on bases having such a facility)
- the tickets have then to be transferred from base 1 to other bases to be used there
- the transfertime has a minimum of 12 hours (cannot be set to zero or even one hour)
So, finally, I created a ticket for each training type, and will provide 1 ticket per training category each month
It's ok like that, I put this suggestion as solved
Thank you very much for your help, Meridian & Yankee!
And you really do an amazing job here, so many new features and possibilities, QOL, etc.
I love you both as much as I love SupSuper, Warboy & Co

Following your advice, I created an event system to trigger expected training tickets ("gym event")
1. An eventScript triggers a monthly event
2. This monthly event provides 5 training tickets
3. Training ticket is declared as an item that will be stored in the database (with no attributes, will see later if needed ; I made tests with some attributes but it does not change the error message)
4. Some extraStrings
Then I added this training ticket as required item in soldierTranformations
Unfortunately, it causes following error message
I tried to change the way to declare requiredItems (with or without brackets, the line after, the line after but with a minus... with same result)
Another question (in case I solve error above): would you have any idea how I could delete each month unused training tickets
Meaning: aim is to allow a "maximum" of 5 training per month but do not store unused training tickets
Example:
Month M: it generates 5 training tickets
Let's assume I train 2 soldiers, so I consume 2 training tickets (and so 3 remaining training tickets)
Month M+1: it generates 5 new training tickets
=> I would like to be able to use only 5 training tickets (and not : 8 training tickets = 5 new TT + 3 old TT)
Thanks in advance for your "science"

« on: March 12, 2023, 12:07:09 pm »If you want to limit the number of transformations, you can generate "gym tickets" via geoscape events every month and then use them as resources required for the transformation.
Oh god, Geoscape events, very nice!!
I will try that
You shared an example here
https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,7215.msg116753.html#msg116753
And the ruleset definition contains lots of very useful information

OXCE Support / [Solved] Soldier Transformation > Add a setting monthlyLimit?
« on: March 11, 2023, 05:02:38 pm »
Hi,
I had a look at ruleset definition (really great work!) unfortunately I did not find any answer to my need, so I finally decided to ask here
Context: I modded a facility that allows to train soldiers in different manners. I don't want to use standard system that provides a global improvement of soldiers stats, but provides instead some kind of specialization.
Request: I would like to set a monthly limit (i.e., not possible to train more than 5 soldiers per month)
The facility attribute "trainingRooms" doesn't help as it will allow "combat/martial training", that I want to avoid. In fact, I think some kind of "monthlyLimit" per SoldierTransformation should fit this expectation. I know there are already several such attributes for different puposes, as monthlyBuyLimit, etc. (very useful), but I don't know the level of difficulty ot implement it
I don't know if others may be interetested and if it could be considered as interesting/useful by our dear "developpers"

OXCE Support / [Answered][Question] Is there a way to "apply" minRank to items/armors
« on: March 03, 2023, 08:21:25 pm »
Hi,
I wonder if there is a possibility to apply some kind of "minRank" to items and armors?
Would be useful for example to make powerful weapons/armors require to be sergent or captain to use/wear it
No idea if it's possible to implement this constraint by script, if some of you have ideas how to deal with that request, I'm clearly interested

OXCE Suggestions DONE / Re: [DONE] [Suggestion] Soldier bonuses (from transformations and commendations)
« on: February 26, 2023, 03:15:00 pm »This is part of oxce already.
Meridian,
I read this full thread, your posts included, but I still would have two question about Commendations and SoldierBonuses
Let's assume I have a commendation as follow:
10 levels of commendation with 4 levels of bonuses:
- Commendation L1 to L4 => SoldierBonus L1
- Commendation L5 to L7 => SoldierBonus L2
- Commendation L8 to L9 => SoldierBonus L3
- Commendation L10 => SoldierBonus L4
Code: [Select]
commendations:
- type: STR_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED #Total number of kills across a soldier's career that meet the specified criteria
description: STR_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED_DESCRIPTION
sprite: 1
criteria:
killsWithCriteriaCareer: [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 75, 100, 200, 300, 500]
soldierBonusTypes: [STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED3, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED3, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED4]
killCriteria:
-
- [1, ["STATUS_DEAD", "FACTION_HOSTILE"]]
soldierBonuses:
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1
stats:
tu: 5
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2
stats:
health: 5
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED3
stats:
tu: 5
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED4
stats:
health: 5
Questions:
1) Do I need to declare
Code: [Select]
soldierBonusTypes: [STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED3, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED3, STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED4]
or may I perhaps make it shorterCode: [Select]
soldierBonusTypes: [STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1, , , , STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2, , , STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED3, , STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED4]
or even another solution ?2) In given example, will the 10th level of Commendation provide cumulative bonus of
- tu +10
- health +10
or only the bonus attached to the 10th level
- health +5
Said differently, if I want a cumulative result, would I have to declare
Code: [Select]
soldierBonuses:
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED1
stats:
tu: 5
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED2
stats:
tu: 5
health: 5
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED3
stats:
tu: 10
health: 5
- name: STR_SB_COMMENDATION_ALIENS_KILLED4
stats:
tu: 10
health: 10
(It may have to do with reset option, but not sure how to make it work properly)
PS: Commendation and SoldierBonuses modding is really great
