Hallo,
I like to create my own spanish civil war campaign with 5 scenarios. Inside the campaign I create an message in the first scenario that one of the Heros killed by an spion. Its possible to remove this core unit hero at the start of the next scenario with an Lua script and replace him with another ?

Thanks in advance!

I tested out this here - but dont work:

function IsRodrigez(hero)
return hero.name == NSLOCTEXT("scenario_Madrid", "Tentente Rodrigez", "Tentente Rodrigez")
end

function FindAndUnassignRodrigez(player)
for _, hero in pairs(player.heroes) do
if IsRodrigez(hero) then
return hero.id
end
end
return -1
end

function RetireRodrigez()
local player = world:GetPlayer(0)
local Rodrigez_id = FindAndUnassignRodrigez(player)

if Rodrigez_id ~= -1 then
local dismiss_action = world:MakeDismissHeroAction(player.id, Rodrigez_id)
world:Exec(dismiss_action)
end
end

function ReplaceRodrigezWithDíaz()
RetireRodrigez()

local player = world:GetPlayer(0)

local hero = NewHero()
hero.portrait = "/CivilWar36-38/Gui/Common/Heroes/SP/Tentente_Díaz.Tentente_Díaz"
hero.name = NSLOCTEXT("scenario_Madrid", "Tentente Díaz", "Tentente Díaz")
hero.extra_traits = {UnitTrait.FirstStrike, UnitTrait.Leadership}
hero.unit_classes = {UnitClass.Infantry}

local new_hero_action = world:MakeNewHeroAction(player.id, hero)
world:Exec(new_hero_action)
end

this won´t work.
the easiestway to search for heros is by a unique trait combination.

in the editor folder of the game is a file called properties.txt. in there u can see what u can acces via lua regarding heros.

if u want to stick with the hero.name method print it via messagebox to check how it looks. my guess is that it would be like

function IsRodrigez(hero)
return hero.name == {"Tentente Rodrigez"}
end

but i haven´t tested that yet.

Thank you - I know! But can you give a short example - how to search for an Trait combination?
{UnitTrait.TenaciousDefender, UnitTrait.FastLearner} is the to remove hero.

function FindItemInTable(table, item)
for index,i in ipairs(table) do
if i == item then
return index
end
end

return -1
end

function IsItemInTable(table, item)
return FindItemInTable(table, item) ~= -1
end

function findhero(hero)
if (not IsItemInTable(hero.extra_traits, UnitTrait.TenaciousDefender)) then return false end
if (not IsItemInTable(hero.extra_traits, UnitTrait.FastLearner)) then return false end
return true
end

this will find all heros with said trait combination

Thomas

Thanks! This is my Lua script yet:

function FindItemInTable(table, item)
for index, i in ipairs(table) do
if i == item then
return index
end
end
return -1
end

function IsItemInTable(table, item)
return FindItemInTable(table, item) ~= -1
end

function FindHeroesWithTraits(heroes)
local heroesToRemove = {}

for _, hero in ipairs(heroes) do
if IsItemInTable(hero.extra_traits, UnitTrait.TenaciousDefender) and IsItemInTable(hero.extra_traits, UnitTrait.FastLearner) then
table.insert(heroesToRemove, hero.id)
end
end

return heroesToRemove
end

function EliminateHeroesWithTraits()
local playerID = 1
local heroes = GameWorld.GetPlayer(playerID).heroes
local heroesToRemove = FindHeroesWithTraits(heroes)

for _, heroID in ipairs(heroesToRemove) do
GameWorld.GetPlayer(playerID).DefeatHero(heroID)
end
end

function Turn0()
EliminateHeroesWithTraits()
end

Editor:
Trigger name: EraseHero
Count: 1
Lua function: Turn0
Actions: StartTurnAction
Lua function: EliminateHeroesWithTraits()

Any ideas ? - it dont work.

You can try to talk to a brand new user who ends their user name with 2 numbers and immediately ask questions about modding, but I'm guessing this will be deleted as soon as the right people figure out who this is. Again.
