attempt to filter attack for an event with no attack data

[Gwledig]

Hi I have an error in game logs which is

attempt to filter attack for an event with no attack data

I seem to have been able to isolate it by removing stuff step by step, to an event which occurs every turn to remove 'projectiles' off the map or remove them after they have 'attacked' an enemy unit, these are units recruited which look like bullets/arrows/missiles in my Chaoz mod, the idea is that the recruited 'projectile' if unused, is removed on turn refresh -

I think it looks like one of the basic parts of the below, i.e the kill on turn refresh, the issue doesn't seem to happen on other parts of the macro -

just wondering if anyone can see anything which might be causing the error above please?

Code: Select all

#define CHAOZ_KILL_PROJECTILE
#kills projectiles on turn refresh - i.e. unused projectiles
[event]
name=turn refresh

I guess [kill] with fire_event could fire combat event which expects attack data.

Is there anything really generic I could add in there to make it a real attack or something, bear in mind I'm only trying to clear a unit off the map, perhaps there is another way to do it, I wonder if it's because this ia fog clearer type unit...

The error is being triggered in EVENT_WEAPON_SPECIAL_PICKPOCKET, and can be avoided by adding another filter to that event:

Code: Select all

[filter_second]
    [not]
        x,y=$x1,$y1
    [/not]
[/filter_second]

Found it by checking for which events are using a [filter_second_attack].

The [kill] tag has optional subtags [secondary_unit] and [secondary_attack]. If [secondary_unit] isn't present, the variable second_unit in each of the die and last breath events is always the same as the variable unit (the dying unit).

Thanks I'll give it a go....
