no, the default value is this:

Code: [Select]

const RuleItem *specialDamageTransform = attack.damage_item ? attack.damage_item->getRules() : nullptr;
int specialDamageTransformChance = 0;

if (specialDamageTransform
&& !specialDamageTransform->getZombieUnit(this).empty()
&& getArmor()->getZombiImmune() == false)
{
specialDamageTransformChance = getOriginalFaction() != FACTION_HOSTILE ? specialDamageTransform->getZombieUnitChance() : 0;
}


thanks again dude

Sorry, but I tried your script and the logs clearly indicate what's wrong.

Code: [Select]

[23-11-2023_07-09-43] [ERROR] Invalid variable name 'transform'
[23-11-2023_07-09-43] [ERROR] Error in matching arguments for operator 'var'
[23-11-2023_07-09-43] [ERROR] Error in parsing script 'damageSpecialUnit' for 'Global Event Script': invalid operation in line: 'var int transform 0;'

It says exactly, which line is wrong ('var int transform 0;').
And it says exactly what's wrong (invalid variable name).

And Nord's answer is also correct.
Once you fix the issue with the variable name, the logs will complain about the missing return too.

Here's a fixed script:

Code: [Select]

extended:
  tags:                                                               
    BattleUnit:                           
      LRF_IS_DEAD: int                       
                   
  scripts:
    damageSpecialUnit:
      - offset: 99
        code: |
          var int temp 0;
          var int transformx 0; 
           
          set temp transform_chance;
          #...magic...
          set transform_chance temp;
          debug_log "transform " temp;  
          battle_game.flashLongMessage "STR_TRANSFORM_STRING";
          return;


my bad god i was looking for errors at end of the log,thinking that the script would error after the attack and it would be at bottom of the file

thanks once again Meridian

You should know it, you have all available tools to debug this, look in logs and see what was there.

its is bit problematic,as the debug doesnt spam anything i try,nothign fires

you forget

Code: [Select]

return; in the end.

tried that,no dice,thnx for trying

first string is wrong, and you forget about @magic@ in a middle.
If you want make chances equal to 0:

Code: [Select]

set transform_chance 0;If you want set chances 15% less:

Code: [Select]

set temp transform_chance;
muldiv temp 85 100;
set transform_chance temp;And dont forget to define variable in a beginning of script:

Code: [Select]

    damageSpecialUnit:
      - offset: 11    # any number for counting
        code: |
          var int temp;

ok thnx for reply,i tried a few variasions of this

Code: [Select]

  scripts:
    damageSpecialUnit:
      - offset: 99
        code: |
          var int temp 0;
          var int transform 0; 
           
          set temp transform_chance;
          ...magic...
          set transform_chance temp;
          debug_log "transform " temp;  
          battle_game.flashLongMessage "STR_TRANSFORM_STRING";
they break the code,and the string dosnt fire

That's one of the worst feature descriptions I've seen in a long time.

Do you really expect I can do anything based on such vague and incomplete "bunch of words".
These don't even qualify as full sentences.

Please don't insult us like this.

O.o sorry it bugged,wasnt trying to insult anybody,

whats wrong with spawn item and delete item?

To create full list of script commands, you need to switch "verboseLogging" in options.cfg to "true", then launch oxce, then quit and open file "openxcom.log". It will contain not only log, but script help. Save it somewhere, and remember to update when upgrade to newer OXCE version.
Just as any variable,

Code: [Select]

set temp transform_chance;
...magic...
set transform_chance temp;
Like 0 is no transform at all, 100 - transform by any circumstances.

I Tried both of those,they both break the script

thnx tho for trying

1. modify amounts of elerium: use

Code: [Select]

alienFuel: [STR_ANYTHING_YOU_WANT, 10], where 10 is as much fuel will be placed in each alien power source.
2. modify amounts of alloys, cloning, etc: look here
3. modify type of special items on map - you need to modify terrain via special program, like MCDEdit. Look in the "Tools" subforum

edit maps,bit it thnx again
