why can not change income

[ERROR1025]

Code: Select all

[event]
	name=start
	first_time_only=yes
		[lua]
			code = <<
				side1.base_income = side1.base_income + {S1G}
			>>
		[/lua]
[/event]

the WML can not work,i hope "side 1 turn gold +{S1G}"
S1G is variable

Base income and income are two different things. I don't use lua for changing income. I do this:

Code: Select all

    [side]
		side=1
		gold=150
		income=3 #            bonus added to base income 2
		village_gold=2 #      default=1	
		...etc.
    [/side]

I'm not sure if this helps. Good luck.

i need it work on other map or cfg,not have help

Even if S1G is variable, {S1G} is table. Adding table to income does not do anything useful.

Are you sure you want to use Lua?

I didn't find a way to modify "turn/gold" in WML, I think only LUA can do it

[Lord-Knightmare]

Code: Select all

[event]
name="turn 2"
    [modify_side]
        income=12
        gold=50
    [/modify_side]
[/event]

Even if you wanted to do that in Lua, you're doing it wrong. There is no such variable as side1. Also, it looks like you're trying to substitute in a macro with {S1G}, but the Lua code is wrapped in `<< >>` which prevents macro substitution.

If for some reason Lord-Knightmare's suggestion doesn't do what you want, you could try this:

Code: Select all

[event]
	name=start
	first_time_only=yes
	[lua]
		code = "
			wesnoth.sides[1].base_income = wesnoth.sides[1].base_income + {S1G}
		"
	[/lua]
[/event]

Although, substituting macros directly into Lua code is generally not a good idea, so it would be better to write it like this:

Code: Select all

[event]
	name=start
	first_time_only=yes
	[lua]
		code = <<
			local args = ... # this line just lets you use anything from the [args] tag in your code
			wesnoth.sides[1].base_income = wesnoth.sides[1].base_income + args.add
		>>
		[args]
			add={S1G}
		[/args]
	[/lua]
[/event]

On the other hand, you mentioned that S1G is a variable. I'd assumed you were misusing terminology and it was actually a macro. However, if I'm wrong and it really is a WML variable, then you would have to write it like this instead:

Code: Select all

[event]
	name=start
	first_time_only=yes
	[lua]
		code = <<
			wesnoth.sides[1].base_income = wesnoth.sides[1].base_income + wml.variables["S1G"]
		>>
	[/lua]
[/event]

And if it's a Lua variable, which I assume is unlikely but is not impossible if you had other Lua code somewhere that assigns it as a global variable, then you would need to write your code like this:

Code: Select all

[event]
	name=start
	first_time_only=yes
	[lua]
		code = <<
			wesnoth.sides[1].base_income = wesnoth.sides[1].base_income + S1G
		>>
	[/lua]
[/event]

But there's no need to do any of this if [modify_side] does what you need.
