Usage of [terrain_mask]?

[Legolad]

I'm trying to create a simple 2-p scenario in which the players are on opposite sides of a chasm. During gameplay, bridges will open across the chasm. For some reason, the bridge code is not working. I use [terrain_mask] to create a bridge at 4,8 on turn 1 ( to make sure it works ), but nothing happens. Here's my [terrain_mask] event:

Code: Select all

[event]
	name=turn 1
	[terrain_mask]
	x,y=4,8
	mask="border_size=1
usage=map

Aa"
	[rule]
   	use_old=no
	[/rule]
	[/terrain_mask]
[/event]

Am I doing something wrong here?

I believe "turn 1" is an invalid event. Use "start" or "turn 2" or later.

[zookeeper]

Indeed.

turn X: (for X some number) this event triggers at the start of turn X. X cannot be 1.

Feel free to post a feature request at gna asking to remove that limitation.

I add a question:

If I have a map like this:

Ww,Ww,Ww,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Ww,Ww,Ww
Ww,Ww,Ww,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Ww,Ww,Ww
Ww,Ww,Ww,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Ww,Ww,Ww
Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs
Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs
Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs
Ww,Ww,Ww,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Ww,Ww,Ww
Ww,Ww,Ww,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Ww,Ww,Ww
Ww,Ww,Ww,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Gs,Ww,Ww,Ww

Is possible to put "Fog" only on "Ww" hexes, usig a [terrain_mask] Tag that modify "Ww" terrain with "_f" or there's another way to do?

If is possible to do that, how i have to set "fog" attribute in [side] Tag..?? (yes or no?)

Thanks... Bye!

It's not possible to place fog with terrain_mask.

It's not possible to place fog with terrain_mask.

Or shroud, read the terrain WML wiki.

Cool. I didn't know about the "turn 1" limitation. TYVM!

i think if you want it on turn 1 use prestart

[opensourcejunkie]

well, if you're making it happen on multiple turns throughout the scenario, it might be useful to use a single "new turn" event, and then just use a bunch of if statements to determine which turn it is.
