Scenario doesn't load sides from previous
Hey everyone!
I'm a noob at this campaign thing, but I decided to research and try to build a two-scenario campaign just for fun. So, I picked up some scenarios I was building long ago and apply to a campaign.
I ran into problems, however. The first scenario plays perfectly, exactly as programmed. The second scenario, however, doesn't seem to load sides 1 and 2 (both human sides, allies, but not with separate turns). If I leave shroud and fog =yes for these sides (as I want), the map remains entirely black and turns just move in an endless sequence. I see in the status table that the AI enemy sides are recruiting and going about their business. If, however, I set shroud and fog =no, which I did as a test, it immediately shows defeat, as if the player leaders were killed. The objectives screen doesn't even appear, which is further indication that the sides are not loaded, for some reason. My intention was for the leaders, sides and full recall list, to carry over from the previous scenario.
So, in summary, it seems the problem is with loading the sides from the previous scenario. Can anyone give me hand to make this work, please?

Perhaps stirred by the foulness of walking death, or perhaps possessed by some cunning evil spirit, orcs came out of their holes and hideouts and raid unafraid upon human and elf prey alike.

Re: Scenario doesn't load sides from previous
Copy the side definitions from the first scenario to the second scenario, because they are complete, while the side definitions in the second scenario are incomplete.
Edit:
In addition, the enemy sides should have an id.

Re: Scenario doesn't load sides from previous
Thank you! Do you mean the type? I thought I shouldn't put that, in case the leader levelled up in the first scenario, would that revert its level?
I will add ids to all AIs too!
