Help needed with new objectives.

Post by Zbrozlo »

Hi. How to properly design new objective that appears during the scenario? For example, primary objective from the scenario start - "capture the city". How to introduce a new objective after capturing city - "hold city and never lose it" until the end of the scenario?

Create the objective and clear the box to the left.
Then add a trigger enabling the objective.

There is a trigger effect which enables and disables objectives during the game. You have to pre-write the objective in the relative tab, marking it as inactive at the start.

Then you write a trigger which has whatever satisfies objective A as a condition, and in the effects you disable the old objectives and activate the new ones. It works well.

You can only have a total of 5 Primary and 5 Secondary objectives, though.

Trigger works, but I cannot set properly objectives. After recapturing city by enemy "objective fail" didnt works. Is it even possible? I haven't found solution in the original scenarios yet. This solution does not work properly:

You need to assign mirror primary objectives to the AI faction and have them fail/fulfill similar to player objectives.
This is not needed for secondary objectives.

It looks like it's not necessary. In the test scenario it works, but for some reason in the scenario I am creating it won't work for reasons unknown to me.
