Why this unit never is able to move?

Hi, I have done this script in order to immobilize the ottoman unit in Basra if any other non CP unit is in a range of 2 hex from Basra. But somethig is wrong, because the ottoman unit never is able to move
Any idea about it?
Code: Select all
local basra = game:GetHex(157, 68)
local hexes = game.map:GetHexesInRange(basra, 2)
for _, hex in pairs(hexes) do
if hex.unit == nil
and unit.faction ~= 2
and basra.unit ~= nil
and unit.hex ~= nil
and unit.hex.x == 157
and unit.hex.y == 68
and unit.type == Unit.LAND
and unit.faction ~= 2 then
unit.mp = 0
end
end

Oh dear...your script is severely messed up.
Important: you cannot just set a unit.mp to 0 via events, this will not work but must be done in:
function SetUnitMovePenalty(unit)
which is in:
game_supply.lua
For the effect you described I would try add this to the end of function SetUnitMovePenalty(unit)
Code: Select all
local basra = game:GetHex(157, 68)
local hexes = game.map:GetHexesInRange(basra, 2)
for _, hex in pairs(hexes) do
if hex.unit ~= nil
and hex.unit.alliance.id == 1 then
if basra.unit ~= nil
and and basra.unit.type == Unit.LAND
and basra.unit.alliance.id = 2 then
basra.unit.mp = 0
break
end
end
end
By the way: the method GetHexesInRange(target, radius) always checks the center hex (in this case basra) too!

Thanks a lot Robotron. I already wrote the script in the right function and file, but it was wrong written as you say
Other question, what's the "break" command meaning?

break is used to exit a loop before the loop is finished.
in our case we have a "for" loop and the break is not really needed but I hoped you would ask so I could show you this link here and you learn something new
