Scar questions

[CoDiEx]

hey

just a quick question
is it possible to make the win condition to capture the enemy command point
instead of destroy all enemy buildings

and without buildings in start
only with a start squad and maybe a vehicle

or just make the buildings invicible

but still with the command point
likes the british command point
there is coming instead of the building

is that possible?
and how can i do that?

and sorry for my english.

It is possible. You would have to learn how to program using the Lua language and then edit or create a new win condition SCAR script (located in data\scar\winconditions\). SCAR is basically just Lua with a fancy name.

[CoDiEx]

okay thanks
then time to learn

edit:
do you know a place to learn it?

[CoDiEx]

how will it maybe look like?

or why not just make the buildings to a control point
there is capture able
and get squads from there instead of the hq

and win by capturing the enemy flags

[eliw00d]

This is how I learned:

http://www.lua.org/pil/

http://lua-users.org/wiki/TutorialDirectory

Open up the Relic win condition SCAR files to see what it would look like.

I am not really sure what you are trying to say. You will have to use a mixture of Corsix Mod Studio (for editing RGD files) and Notepad++ (my recommendation for any kind of programming).

sorry, all i want is no buildings on the map (exept for the envirements) and you can win by capturing enemy command point

I just use Corsix mod studio (for coding and editing RGD's) I recommend looking at Sando's scar tutorial BTW, and also maybe just make the strategy point into an egroup or something, then make your own win condition where to win the enemy has to capture the egroup, once ALL the egroups are captured (so if it's a 4v4, once all the points are captured for one side) then you win. I don't know how you would get them into an egroup though, im no expert on this.

WoW i just looked at it: http://forums.relicnews.com/showthre...+scar+tutorial
there is alot of coding, i dont know anything about.

okay, how can i make ai buildings capture able (like a control point)
and change the win condition to say that if the ai has no more buildings then it will lose

[CoDiEx]

and how can i remove the commander tree (doctrines)

[ChickenNuggets]

That's an odd question, maybe go into each doctrine and for widget_suffix put 0 instead of what its at now (I think panzer_01 for SE and it is like that for all factions, change it to a number value)

[CoDiEx]

okay

----------

i finnally got what i want
just copy the strategic_point_ext form the manpower point
and paste into all hq
(but how can i do that for the commonwealth? or change the vehicle to a building?)

[CoDiEx]

how can i make the ai load abilities like a call in ability?

edit:
instead of buy soldiers from the barracks

[jalle4554]

yes how is it possible to make the ai load a call in ability from the start?

[CoDiEx]

i found this script and i want to know how i can apply that instead of kill enemy HQ

is it possible?
and how?

For all players
With this:

UI_EnableResourceTypeKicker(RT_Action, false)
UI_BindingSetEnabled("company_commander", false)
