If i add new troops to Warband Singeleplayer and want them to appear in the taverns along the normal mercenaries, what do i have to do? I suspect that there is a script called whenever you entered a tavern, placing the troops. So i have to lokk into the Scripts file or what?

Module System 1.134 is out...with something that should be of help to you:
(agent_get_item_slot, <destination>, <agent_id>, <value>), value between 0-7, order is weapon1, weapon2, weapon3, weapon4, head_armor, body_armor, leg_armor, hand_armor (the appropriate ek_slots)
Possibly also useful for this:
ti_on_item_picked_up
ti_on_item_dropped
ti_on_item_wielded
ti_on_item_unwielded
Excellent! You have helped me get one step closer to world domination. When I'm done with my conquest, you will receive a charming fruit basket and a gift card to Olive Garden.Caba`drin said:

You will never accomplish it. As I type this my men a closing in on your position.
Anyways, I am getting some weird problems with a simple loop that I have and all that I can figure out is that prop_instances are not numbered right.
Code:
(scene_prop_get_num_instances, ":max_bullets", "spr_bullet_a"),
(try_for_range, ":cur_bullet", 0, ":max_bullets"),
(prop_instance_get_position, pos3, ":cur_bullet"),
(position_get_distance_to_ground_level, ":ground_distance", pos3),
(le, ":ground_distance", 0),
(prop_instance_stop_animating, ":cur_bullet"),
(scene_prop_set_visibility, ":cur_bullet", 0),
(try_end),You haven't actually gotten the instance IDs, only the instance indexes. You need to add this in your loop. make this the first line inside your loop.
and replace the other uses of ":cur_bullet" with ":bullet_id"
Code:
(scene_prop_get_instance, ":bullet_id", "spr_bullet_a", ":cur_bullet"),ithilienranger

Thanks, now I feel stupid. 
You wouldn't be the first one to do something like that
I'm having problems with custom "use" strings. I'm trying to make it so that the use string changes depending on what item you're wielding and the state of one of the scene prop's slots. The part that confuses me is that the code works on a local server, but not a dedicated. Is there something I'm missing? Here's the code that I've added to script_game_get_use_string:
The problem that happens on the dedicated server is that it only seems to cycle through the first two possibilities.
Code:
(multiplayer_get_my_player, ":my_player"),
(player_get_agent_id, ":player_agent", ":my_player"),
(agent_get_wielded_item, ":wielded_item", ":player_agent", 0),
(try_begin),
(this_or_next|eq, ":scene_prop_id", "spr_mp_cannon_3lb"),
(this_or_next|eq, ":scene_prop_id", "spr_mp_cannon_6lb"),
(eq, ":scene_prop_id", "spr_mp_cannon_12lb"),
(scene_prop_get_slot, ":reloaded", ":instance_id", mp_cannon_reload),
(try_begin),
(eq, ":reloaded", 0),
(this_or_next|eq, ":wielded_item", "itm_cannonball_3lb"),

It looks like you can load any size cannonball into any size cannon with your code. Also, you can output or store literal strings using @. (str_store_string, s0, "@Cannon is loaded"),
Try this or if the items are in a row you could shorten it with a try for range.

(try_end),OK, my first problem with the tavern is solved. But i hav one other question: is there a possibility to add new bodies? There are existing one body for men, one for women, and one for Undead. Can i add more in some way? And is it possible to give multiplayer troops this body then? i dont mean the bots, i mean the troops the player can play. Or do i have to add these bodies just as armor, like it is in Fantasy-PW for example?
Quick question, what character encoding does M&B use?
Edit: when it displays strings and such in-game?

Like a land mine? The approach I'd take is to make an item and a scene prop. After throwing/placing the mine item, spawn a scene-prop mine at the placement position. Then have a trigger in mission templates to check every frame (ie, 0 in the time spot) if an enemy agent (or anybody, if you want friendly-fire mines) is within a certain radius of any mines. If there is an enemy close enough to a mine, move that specific mine prop below the ground (you also may want to script a disabling variable too, just in case), deal damage to the agents in the blast radius, make a nice explosion using particles, and voila, you've got yourself a working mine!

If you can go through walls then you either aren't including the collision mesh or you have an ai_limiter flag on the prop.
Try rename your meshes to "HK2" & "bo_HK2". Game naming convention uses .X at the end of mesh names as a multimesh indicator, maybe this gets in the way, as colmeshes can't me multyBeobart said:
