Thorgrims allow you to paint whatever terrain you want, wherever you want. It is, hands down, the best world map editor.

 

[Antonis]

In terms of painting the terrain yes, but for making the map geometry and moving around parties, Swyter's cartographer(with Blender for sculpting) is your friend.

I have a grenade, how when it collided with the ground it will go away, my grenades work as Light_Throwing_Axes items I've added a few lines of code, as mentioned how it disappears when collisions with ground

thank for anyone help me :V 
sorry my english bad

 

[FantasyWarrior]

Please, do you have an idea for a better lighting for my toch ?
It work at one meter max 

It's not my codes, but i've made the toch is based on a shield (left hand + weapon).

More color ? like 350,230,170 ?
Or more big or more intense ? add_point_light, 10, 30 ?

Spoiler

Thank you.

You can take my codes...

 

[Antonis]

Well, I think that this: (set_current_color,150, 130, 70) is just the color of the light that emitts from the torch, I cannot see how you can have more light if it was another color(say, deep red or deep yellow). Increasing the radius(add_point_light, 10, 30),) probably will have it shed more light.

Thanks, i was work on the red part 
It is possible to add a "light_red" scene prop at the torch ? 

I cant see the "light" scene prop codes, it is hardcoded ?

Nevermind, i'm stupid

Edit: wow  i think it's possible to make : a weapon at Lhand, and a weapon at the Rhand !

By every mission template, (if item equiped= weapon left hand) /right click = play anim (left hand attack), agent deliver damages to agent at a specific distance...and a "left hand weapon" based on a shield

[Random Peasant]

Apologies if this is more of a "how do" than a question, but, is it possible to change the "Deaths" column in multiplayer to accumulate a score instead? My intention is to have a score column that replaces deaths and lists the number equivalent to the damage dealt by a player to enemies minus team damage and loss of HP.

I am trying to make it so the encountered party (the player owned town) will join the player's team, and they will both be fighting the artificially generated "elf natives" template, but it just ends up with the player's party fighting his own garrison. Everything else works though.

 

[Pumpkin Lord]

You are literally doing nothing for the teams that will be fight. Do a check by getting the teams of the agents that eill be fighting and set their relation to -1 after setting them alarmed.
