You say it doesn't work with SR3? what do you mean? I could look into it.
I used the value of 5 for the command in every mission yet it seems like the AI creates ways more recruits than 6.

in your mission? did the AI build, smart build or not build at all? i noticed the RECRUIT only works in missions where the AI smart builds, not normal build (1 building of each). didnt remember what it did with NO_BUILD. So if u had a mission with normal build or NO_BUILD, try to make it smart build and tell me if RECRUIT works then...

Yeah they are all NO_BUILD, but the command is used in the original missions in NO_BUILD maps. But then again it doesn't really matter what the exact limit is for me as long as the AI doesn't stack 80 recruits in his barracks.

U mean in the single missions? indeed they are used there, but they have no effect at all (if i remember good).

Well from the top of my head I remember it being used in mission 1 and 9 TSK but probably also 18 TSK and some more I can't remember.

Hi All,
In the first place I would like to humbly apologise for not releasing this version sooner. I could have done this mid January, but I kept putting it off.
Anyway, version 0.9 has been released and guess what? Troops are now displayed on the map!!
Download:
http://lewin.namsys.com.au/kam/downloads/KaMEdit-0.9.zip

Changes: (I didn't keep a record, so this list may be incomplete)
- Troops displayed on map
- Added new command, AI Aggressiveness (!SET_AI_CHARACTER ATTACK_FACTOR)
- Wares a now limited to 30000, because once they reach 65536 they reset to 0 (thanks to Kuba11100)
- Fixed lots of bugs

Things for next release:
- Group members of troops and AI defence displayed (rather than just the leader)
- AI Attack Range, once I've tested it properly
- AI attacks displayed on map


As always , please report bugs here or by email or whatever.
Lewin.

Nice, this could be helpful in finishing the single mission fixes. :D By the way, you included a .ini file with the archive putting the language as Polish and a preset game path, should be removed.

I also noticed the "weird INI file", but it's easy to fix yourself..
But it's cool! I hope you'll find more time for it

Oops! :oops: That was from my beta testing, I forgot to remove it.
I have fixed it now, so if you were having weird problems then please re-download it.

Thanks for the complements!
Lewin.
P.S. Feel free to make suggestions regarding anything and everything.

When you're placing buildings and stuff, is there a shortcut to select an other team?

RECRUT_COUNT doesn't seem to get syntax-highlighted, is that by design?

Not at the moment. You mean a keyboard shortcut? Well I guess I could implement that. Like 1-8 for team numbers.

No, I have tried but for some reason it won't highlight. I have no idea why, it is in the list of constants. I spent a while trying to fix it but then I gave up.

I've found some small things to change, mainly related to limits:
- goals, lost goals and messages; attacks and defense positions - it's mentioned in help file, but I think most people just don't read it (or don't know English - as there are some who don't know what to do when Krom's editor is showing big white squares, and translating the whole file would take a lot of time). Editor doesn't stop from making too many of them
- attacks: it's not mentioned in dialog window that Repeating Combo (2) and Choose Troops Randomly work only in TPR
- soldiers in one troop - 80 is max. - if more are coded, the game will make 80-soldier troop and more single soldier troops.
I think that the TPR-only buildings are so obvious that they don't need "(TPR Only)" text added (however, house 6 works in TSK with !SET_HOUSE_DAMAGE 350 parameter :D ).

Some other text changes, like "recruit factor" instead of "max recruits", as the amount is usually bigger than the number set and it depends on amount of watchtowers. When I was testing it the amounts were different than Nick's ones (0-0 recruits, 1-2; 2-3; 3-4; 4-5; 5-5; 6-7; 7-8; 8-8 - it was the same as value in 0 and 5, 8, 11 and so on, otherwise it was value+1; amount was bigger when watchtower was added and it wasn't 5=5, 6=7, 8=8 )

I was also thinking about small modification to set_unit_by_stock - now it's like: serf serf serf serf serf serf serf serf serf serf serf serf serf serf - what about something like set unit type + set amount dialog window? So that will look similar to the add_ware window?

Could you please explain more clearly? I don't understand you. Where is the black window? Is it in KaM?

There are a number of things that could be causing this, and I can help you with it but I need more information first.

If you would rather email me then my address is: lewinjh@gmail.com
