Modify the scripts about lord decision ai. It's very possible, as I did it to make the lords not leaving the tournament town if they're still compete in the tournament.Cozur said:
It's as hard as telling the guys to use search button or google. As The questions about always war and always peace between certain factions are here so many times.djogloc02 said:How do you tell to a guy to use the modify button?
If you read carefully module system files, you will find that certain lords are made having absolute loyal to their faction. Just do the same thing with some degrees of tolerance to another lords.Commando said:I need help in Mount & Blade Warband Version 1.153 the lords always leave there kingdoms so fast & join another Kingdom & that make game bad so is there any way to edit some thing to make them more loyalty for the lords ?!

Read script_get_trade_penalty. It applies your trading skill and your relation to the merchant's center to final price.
If there's one mystery I can't figure out with Mount and Blade, it's got to be this one.
How does the engine evaluate party strength and decides who chases whom on the map?
There are modsys-side scripts and (troop level based) calculations for party strength, but they are not hardcoded/callbacks and therefore usable by the engine (or are they?), so the engine has to have its own hidden formula. Aggressiveness and courage are applied as modifiers, but what determines base strength?

Got a couple more questions.
Been making a template for adding in lore-based NPC's, simply because I've run out of other stuff to do. Basically, the player can walk up to them, talk a bit, and then hear about events taking place.
So did this:
However, the second time I talk to the troop, I get this. The dialog works the first time, but not the second.
Think it's got something to do with this:
So basically, what I would like is being able to have a curt, short, response pop up the second time you talk to the troop, something along the lines of "**** off" or whatever, but being able to customize the dialog for every individual troop, and not have them reply like a regular soldier.

You're supposed to have another one linking to the conversation state sandor_master_talk for other values of $g_talk_troop_met. If you want another fallback dialog, do something like this
Code:

So Ive found myself another problem I cant find solution to. Im replacing trees on the worldmap, the ones for plains are ok (map_tree_a,map_tree_b...). I have brf with these, the names of them are the same as Native obviously and I comment out the line in module.ini that loads brf with Native trees so the objects dont collide (there are errors if the line remains uncommented). So far so good, trees are displayed correctly, there is randomness. Now I try to also load custom trees for other biomes (snow, steppe) and here goes trouble. None of the biome trees get used and there are only map_tree_a all over the place. Also sometimes, and this seems to be random, it throws error at me that it cannot find map steppe tree "name" (this error pops up when trying to start a new game or load, not on startup. Also it doesnt crash the game like other missing object errors do, rather the models are just missing on the map)
Help pretty please?

As far as I know, that is what the engine uses. Back when I was working on Hiridia, I was able to override the party strength calculations and the aggressiveness of parties. Maybe there is some engine-side code but those scripts still effect the AI.MadVader said:

Well my memory isn't the best and I don't have my module system at hand right now but I think that the engine calls that script somehow. However, it may be indirectly (through another script or trigger).
So is it like battle advantage?
I think it's all done by engine, although we can make a trigger to loop certain parties calculate their own strength and parties they saw around by our calculation then force them to attack what we count as weaker by (party_set_ai_behavior, <party_id>, ai_bhvr_attack_party), and (party_set_ai_object, <party>, <our calculated weaker party>),

Sorry for (almost) doubleposting but I got one more question. Where does MnB take the snowy hilltop texture from? Cause its not the same snow it uses when you explicitly draw snow material on the map. I need to override it so it is the same texture as mountain = there is no snowy top even though the mountain is already in the height where the engine automaticaly makes it snowy. And please dont suggest moving the whole mesh down, thats what Im doing now and the problem is there appears some kind of fog if you zoom in all the way as the camera gets "under the sea level" (I dont know what it really is, but Im sure its because the camera is too low).
Thanks again
Thanks again
