Items, Research, and Requirements.
« on: August 04, 2014, 05:34:03 pm »
Okay, having a little issue.

I added a new research spot called 'Alloy Manufacturing'.  Once that is researched, you can produce a number of things, including alloy ammunition.

Code: [Select]
  - name: STR_ALLOY_MANUFACTURING
    cost: 200
    points: 20
    needItem: false
    dependencies:
      - STR_ALIEN_ALLOYS

So I added

Code: [Select]
    requires:
      - STR_ALLOY_MANUFACTURING

To my items.  However, it seems that it's being ignored, because I can see all the items that require it right from the start.

What am I missing?

It's rather huge but sure.

you have TWO entries called research (line 307 and 551)
in the same rul file
only one of these is used (likely the second one)

Fixed that with no resolution.  Does the research name need to match the item name?

you manufacture STR_..._UC armors you need to manufacture the "storeItem"

STR_ELERIUM_SHOTGUN_SHELLS needs a research called STR_ALLOY_SHOTGUN_SHELLS there is none
STR_ALLOY_SHOTGUN_SHELLS manufactrure needs a research called STR_ALLOY_SHOTGUN_SHELLS there is none
ufopeadia STR_ALLOY_SHOTGUN_SHELLS needs a research called STR_ALLOY_SHOTGUN_SHELLS there is none

I'm going to fix the shotgun issue momentarily,

What am I missing via the armor again? What should it be manufacturing?

The first issue is solved, thanks for pointing it out. I needed the required in the UFOPEDIA as well

instead of
Code: [Select]
armors:
  - type: STR_IMP_KEVLAR_URBAN_UC
...
    storeItem: STR_KEVLAR_URBAN
...
manufacture:
...
  - name: STR_IMP_KEVLAR_URBAN_UC
...
you  need
Code: [Select]
armors:
  - type: STR_IMP_KEVLAR_URBAN_UC
...
    storeItem: STR_KEVLAR_URBAN
...
manufacture:
...
  - name: STR_KEVLAR_URBAN
...
you have to manufacture the storeItem
