Thread: CoHSpeechManager.exe30 May 2019, 17:15 PM I've gotten quite a few requests for this file recently. I managed to dig it out of an old hard drive and uploaded it to Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1SGroHmlNMkZHAhteTkZalrH9NT9Nibgn Here's my original tutorial for how to use it: https://web.archive.org/web/20140914170056/http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?235764-Tutorial-Merging-Faction-Speechfiles If a mod could sticky this, I'm sure it will be beneficial to all who need it. NOTE: This only works for CoH1. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: win condition that will balance resources based on team size30 May 2019, 14:38 PM So, the assignment operator is not the same as the equality operator. `if Player_GetTeam(i)=1 then` should be `if Player_GetTeam(i)==1 then` Also, unless it just cut off, you don't have an end for your function. You should really use local variables to store anything that you use more than once. For example, you call World_GetPlayerAt multiple times. Function calls can become expensive in loops. You should also indent for readability. I highly suggest using Visual Studio Code or some other IDE to help with that. Here is a cleaned up version of your script: g_CheckAnnihilate = true function OnInit() team_a = 0 team_b = 0 for i = 1, World_GetPlayerCount() do if (Player_GetTeam(i) == 1) then team_a = team_a + 1 else team_b = team_b + 1 end end if (team_a > team_b) then b_ratio = team_a/team_b a_ratio = 1 else a_ratio = team_b/team_a b_ratio = 1 end for i = 1, World_GetPlayerCount() do local player = World_GetPlayerAt(i) Player_SetPopCapOverride(player, 350) if (Player_GetTeam(i) == 1) then Modify_PlayerResourceRate(player, RT_Manpower, a_ratio) Modify_PlayerResourceRate(player, RT_Munition, a_ratio) Modify_PlayerResourceRate(player, RT_Fuel, a_ratio) else Modify_PlayerResourceRate(player, RT_Manpower, b_ratio) Modify_PlayerResourceRate(player, RT_Munition, b_ratio) Modify_PlayerResourceRate(player, RT_Fuel, b_ratio) end end end Scar_AddInit(OnInit) In: Modding and Tools

Thread: Spawning units in a building15 May 2019, 03:14 AM You could lock just the squad or squads using AI_LockSquad or AI_LockSquads. http://www.fortresseuropemod.com/scardoc/index.html#AI_LockSquad In: Modding and Tools
Thread: How to use the Print() command15 May 2019, 02:49 AM That means SCAR has not yet initialized. So, as a general rule of thumb, you want all of your code to start after that has happened. For example: `Scar_AddInit(function() -- put code here end)` This is also mentioned in the SCAR documentation: When the game engine reads your *.scar file, anything in the global scope will be immediately called. This may cause problems as some functions are not meant to be used until the game has loaded up all of its components. The function Scar_AddInit( FunctionName ) can be used to kick off your script. This tells the game engine "When you are ready, call the function FunctionName first." http://www.fortresseuropemod.com/scardoc/index.html And yes, you would just call print, like so: print('hello world') or print('hello', 'world') It takes n arguments.

Thread: How to use the Print() command14 May 2019, 14:08 PM Jump back to quoted post14 May 2019, 07:14 AMjcbarth I'm currently using Sublime Text to edit my SCAR code, but I am unable to get the Print() function to return the values I am trying to track. Does anyone have any idea on how to get this set up? Would make debugging so much easier. For some reason CoH2 does not output calls to print to a scarlog as CoH1 did. This is what I wrote for use in my own mods: `_G.print = { cache = '' } setmetatable(_G.print, { __call = function(self, ...) local args = {...} for index = 1, #args do self.cache = self.cache..tostring(args[index])..'\t' end self.cache = self.cache..'\n' PersistentMode_SerializeResults('userdata:logs/scarlog.txt', self.cache) end })` Feel free to use it. Jump back to quoted post14 May 2019, 09:08 AMelnur009 it's not python WriteLn('Hello world'); No, it's Lua. This was neither helpful nor correct. The function is print. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Nil value on SGroup_IsUnderAttack and Entity_Kill()14 May 2019, 14:05 PM It's actually right there in the error: attempt to call global 'Entity_kill' (a nil value) The k in Entity_Kill should be upper case. So, the nil value refers to the fact that Entity_kill does not exist. In: Modding and Tools
