How to filter on AMLA chosen in post advance event?

[lea]

how can I find out in "advance" and "post advance" events what advancement was chosen by player?

EDIT: there may be no point in doing so in "advance" event as gfgtdf pointed out

With [filter_wml]? Check with :inspect how the advancements appear in units, and write a corresponding filter which will match if the unit has advancement X.

[gfgtdf]

The "advance" event fire after the advancement is cosen but before it is added to the unit. Afaik there is no way to know which advancements waas chosen.

The "post advance" event fires after the modification was added ot the unit so you can just check the last [advancement] addded to that unit

I would like to detect that certain advancement was chosen, not if it is present on unit (perhaps from previous advances). is it possible to get a list of advancements from $unit variable or result of [store_unit] tag?

is it possible to get a list of advancements from $unit variable or result of [store_unit] tag?

You can use :inspect to find all the keys that are stored using [store_unit]. ($unit is the same, it's just automatically stored.) The key advances_to holds a comma-separated list of advancements. You can load that list into an array using [split] in [set_variables].

thanks, will last chosen one be always last in this list? experiments supply this assumption but could not find any info on that on the wiki

No, that list just contains the unit types the unit can level into. I think I was answering the wrong question, so this isn't what you need.

The [advancement] that gfgtdf mentioned is an array of AMLAs that you can access with [store_unit]. In that list, the last one would always be the most recently chosen. (Unless they are added in reverse order, in which case it would be the first. I don't remember which way it goes.)

[gfgtdf]

note that the actual tagnames has changes in 1.13 from [advance] to [advancement]to you miht need some
#ifdef here to make sure your code works in 1.12 and 1.13

it works and since my advancement can be removed (it has no lasting effects but I did not know that advancements can be removed with [clear_variable]) I can search for it in a loop

thanks to everybody for help
