As you know, I made a trigger that fixes the problem of CKO troops sometimes not showing up with all the weapons they're given. Unfortunately, it becomes outdated every time a new version of the mod comes out, and I'm back to square one. To put a stop to it, I decided to create this thread. Sure, I'd just post it on the CKO thread in a perfect world, but after seeing people repeatedly fail to find a lot of this kind of stuff and ask for the same questions time and time again, I came to think a new thread is easier to find.
The reason the script stops working is that the troop order in troops.txt changes with every new version. The troops trp_player_knight, trp_player_sergeant, trp_player_knight_save and trp_player_sergeant_save are used in it, so you'll have to find their correct IDs all the time.
Once upon a time, my script was like this:
The operation troop_get_inventory_slot means you're looking for the item a troop has in a particular inventory slot. The commands using it always go like " 1541 3 [item to return] [troop] [slot no] " (with leading and trailing spaces). Which means the second number after " 1541 3 " strings refers to the troop. There are 4 such commands in the code with the first referring to trp_player_knight, 2nd trp_player_knight_save, 3rd trp_player_sergeant and the last trp_player_sergeant_save.
Whatever hex version of the script you have, you can follow these steps if it stops working:
- Search for these " 1541 3 "s in the script and jot down the 2nd numbers after these, because they must be replaced. Don't forget the order.
- Open up troops.txt and search for these 4 troops (their verbose versions starting with trp, not the numbers). Subtract 3 from the line no you find the results on and then divide it by 7, which gives you the troop ID. Then add the ID to 360287970189639680.
- Replace the old numbers in the script with the new ones you just calculated.

- Profit!
