Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

Magnificent! Actually, this is exactly what I was searching for

One downside is that if a siege lasts more than 5 turns then the GS will be reapplied to that settlement, adding further units. There might be a way around that, though I haven't seen other garrison scripts avoid this either.

The real benefit is the lack of monitors. Other than (once) during the slave turn - which will happen every turn - nothing happens until somebody actually attacks somebody else's settlement (or fort). Compared to a script that has one monitor for each GS settlement, checking its besieged status and other things, this is very lean. And even the monitor that is doing all of the heavy lifting - the last monitor - is mostly just IF statements.

What you call downside, someone else can call "a feature that makes the human player to not exploit prolonged sieges" or "fresh reinforcements arrive :tongue: ".

Edit: Here is a version without the "downside":

Code:

declare_counter gs_turns_byzantium_Nicaea declare_counter Nicaea_siege declare_counter gs_turns_byzantium_Caffa declare_counter Caffa_siege ;other settlements... monitor_event Transgression TransgressionName = TC_INSTIGATE_SIEGE ; and not TargetFactionIsLocal ; not absolutely necessary, but may help if I_SettlementOwner Nicaea = byzantium and I_IsFactionAIControlled byzantium and I_CompareCounter gs_turns_byzantium_Nicaea <= 0 and not I_SettlementUnderSiege Nicaea set_counter Nicaea_siege 1 end_if if I_SettlementOwner Caffa = byzantium and I_IsFactionAIControlled byzantium and I_CompareCounter gs_turns_byzantium_Caffa <= 0 and not I_SettlementUnderSiege Caffa set_counter Caffa_siege 1 end_if ;other settlements... ;campaign_wait 0.1 inc_event_counter gs_create_now 1 end_monitor monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionType slave inc_counter gs_turns_byzantium_Nicaea -1 inc_counter gs_turns_byzantium_Caffa -1 ;other settlements... inc_event_counter gs_create_now 1 end_monitor monitor_event EventCounter EventCounterType gs_create_now ; and EventCounter > 0 campaign_wait 0.1 if I_CompareCounter Nicaea_siege = 1 if I_SettlementUnderSiege Nicaea and I_CompareCounter gs_turns_byzantium_Nicaea <= 0 console_command create_unit Nicaea "Contaratoi" 1 0 0 0 ;other units... set_counter gs_turns_byzantium_Nicaea 5 end_if set_counter Nicaea_siege 0 end_if if I_CompareCounter Caffa_siege = 1 if I_SettlementUnderSiege Caffa and I_CompareCounter gs_turns_byzantium_Caffa <= 0 console_command create_unit Caffa "Contaratoi" 1 0 0 0 ;other units... set_counter gs_turns_byzantium_Caffa 5 end_if set_counter Caffa_siege 0 end_if ;other settlements... end_monitor

Now, to explain how it works: Nicaea, Caffa are settlements. Let's say that the TC_INSTIGATE_SIEGE refers to Nicaea (that is, our "target_settlement" is Nicaea). Then, in the Transgression monitor, Nicaea is not yet under siege. In the EventCounter monitor, Nicaea is under siege, so we do the create_units. If Nicaea was already under siege when the transgression takes place, then when the script reaches the EventCounter monitor, Nicaea_siege = 0, so no garrison reinforcements for Nicaea :). Also, even if somehow script had been blocked due to the "campaign_wait", our garrison_reinf will "arrive at the next execution of the EventCounter monitor; for this case, it might be useful to repeat in the EventCounter monitor the "I_SettlementOwner" or any other of the conditions of the first monitor.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

I 've updated my previous post, with a tweak that I believe makes Withwnar's previous post's GS not to add further units if a siege lasts more than 5 turns.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

Good stuff. However, it introduces a new downside: if Nicaea's turn counter is, say, 2 when a siege happens then they won't get the garrison 2 turns later while that siege is still under way. i.e. Another siege of the same settlement before the previous siege's timer has run down will block the garrison spawn. Again, that's either a "downside" or a "feature" depending on point of view. It could be argued that a garrison appearing midway through a siege (my way) is also a downside.

"inc_event_counter gs_create_now 1" instead of setting it 1 and 0. That's cleaner. :thumbsup2

; and not TargetFactionIsLocal ; not absolutely necessary, but may help

I agree. It will avoid triggering the last monitor unnecessarily assuming that garrisons aren't created for the player faction (as they aren't in this script).

~~~

Meanwhile I have been doing some testing, to investigate the possibility of two sieges happening within that 0.1 campaign _wait...

I spawned two AI armies and made them lay siege to two AI settlements in quick succession. I spawned them first (facing them south) and positioned them on the north adjacent tile of the settlement in question. i.e. The game does not need to walk them anywhere or turn them around in any way. Then made them lay siege in as close to the same time as possible:

Code:

siege_settlement dale_attackers1, Grasgard, maintain siege_settlement rohan_attackers2, Athrad_Angren, maintain

i.e. No other script in between these two actions. "Follow AI Movement" was off and both of these settlements were in my fog of war.

I added a "log always" to the Transgression monitor, removed its campaign_wait and set_event_counter so that it was only logging, then checked the log to see when they each fired. The test was repeated three times.

Result: about 0.6 seconds between the two Transgression firings.

I'm not sure that it proves anything because this might be less on a faster machine, possibly less than 0.1 for all I know.

To verify this...

So the last monitor won't execute for the second assault and won't create a garrison for that second assault's settlement.

...I put the campaign_wait back in and made it 1.0 - longer than my 0.6 result. Sure enough, the Transgression monitor only fired once.

I then tried moving that campaign_wait to the EventCounter monitor instead (removed from the Transgression one) and added a "log always" to there as well ... as expected this time the Transgression monitor fired twice but the EventCounter monitor fired only once.

So either way, wherever the campaign_wait is, the garrison-spawning script won't fire on a second siege if that siege is happening too fast - faster than 0.1 seconds since the first siege.

And so the question becomes: what is the fastest that two sieges can happen in a row on any machine? And even if it could happen within 0.1 seconds, how often would it happen?

At the end of the day I don't think that it's all that critical anyway. Worst case scenario is that:
1) some garrisons may not appear for AI attacks until the slave turn
2) some garrisons may not appear for AI attacks at all if the AI uses a direct assault (no siege: artillery or gates opened by spies). Hmm, actually that one might be "critical" but how often does the AI do this?

For player attacks: no problem. There's no way that the player can launch two sieges within 0.1 seconds.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

hallo sorry too thunder this thread but i was testing the garrisson script from Withwnar from post 40 here,made it a little bit difference,i tested this in a new campaign with england and when i besiege Paris the capital of france there is no units spawned in the city,i show mine log and script,as the error says somethings it does not regonise a unit type and say the settlement is already full garrisson,when it is not?

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

1) You can do all this work in only three monitor, if follow exactly the instructions given by Withwnar. Your script adds a rather significant delay to your game, as from each of these Transgression monitors a campaign_wait 0.1 is issued
2) You haven't typed the correct form of the "console_command create_units"; it's not the same as without the console_command.

Code:

console_command create_unit Paris "Armored Sergeants" 4 2 1 0

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

thank you gsthoed i did not see that,but about the you can do all in one monitor seems good but will it not have a chance that the event_counter gs_create_now will conflict ,as this one will chance it's counter if one of the 30 faction capitals are under besiege,so better make a new event_counter for every (30) capitals of the factions?

Yes, each needs it own counter:

...and so on for the other faction+settlement combinations. (I only did your first three.)

And use the "console_command create_unit" way of creating units - as gsthoed said - otherwise it can interfere with spawning and recruiting units in that settlement, as mentioned earlier in this thread (post 32 & 33).

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

The "Transgression" monitor should contain exactly two lines (except if you follow my last approach) : the campaign wait and the set_event_counter. In the EventCounter monitor you can add the check for every capital. From what Withwnar reports about repeated sieges, I doubt too that the process can stuck, but if, by any chance, there is this conflict, the reinforcements will "arrrive" at the next instigation of a siege or at first FactionTurnStart of the slave faction (depends on which one comes first). Second, Withwnar's script demands approximately 0.1 seconds between two siege instigations; your script demands this 0.1 second +30·0.001sec, so it has higher chances for this conflict.
Also, if you are interested for the real capitals of each faction and you use any spawnpool faction, check this tutorial:

I am covered from your analysis, Withwnar, about the TC_INSTIGATE_SIEGE transgression and its use for garrison script. I believe you should put it in separate tutorial, as it deserves it (and to move discussions for garrison scripts to another thread :tongue:).
Also, the downside you refer in my last script is what you refer in your previous post "Typically garrison scripts have a cooldown period so that a garrison won't spawn until at least X turns since the last time it did in that settlement"

EDIT: I see it took me too long to write this post..

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

I got a question - if I have monitor with many ifs, which should fire its effect once during campain, and then I have no need of it, may I terminate it like this

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionIsLocal

if I_EventCounter abc_event = 1
.. or some other conditions, when no effect fires
end_if

if I_EventCounter abc_event = 2
... or some other conditions, when effect fires
terminate_monitor
end_if
end_monitor

I expect this way I will terminate this entire monitor after it fires necessary effect after some conditions.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

With that particular monitor it will fire at the beginning of the game and terminate, that would only be useful if the 'if' events only correspond to what faction the player controls in a single player game. For any other situation you'll want to put the terminate_monitor inside each possible 'if' event, to get the results your looking for.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

It will only terminate when "abc_event = 2" which is what he wants. Your script is correct, bitterhowl.

terminate_monitor instantly stops and kills the monitor.

I often use them at the beginning of monitors, in IFs, in situations where the monitor is no longer needed (or never was). For example, a monitor that is only required when england is not an AI faction...

Code:

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionType england if I_IsFactionAIControlled england terminate_monitor end_if ;...a bunch of script ... it can safely assume that england is the player... end_monitor

It is equivalent to - but cleaner than, in my opinion - this...

Code:

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionType england if not I_IsFactionAIControlled england ;...a bunch of script ... it can safely assume that england is the player... end_if if I_IsFactionAIControlled england terminate_monitor end_if end_monitor

Common practice is to just do this...

Code:

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionType england and not I_IsFactionAIControlled england ;...a bunch of script ... it can safely assume that england is the player... end_monitor

...but it will never terminate if the player is not england, meaning that at the start of each faction's turn, for the entire campaign, this monitor is checking the faction type and whether it is AI controlled for absolutely no reason. No doubt this adds no noticeable lag so not worth worrying about ... but all of those tiny lags add up to a noticeable one eventually.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

Well, at this moment I got 2 situations. First is about some scenario events, when some armies invade and move using random counters to 3-4 random targets. Like this

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

if not I_IsFactionAIControlled milan
and I_TurnNumber = 5
and I_SettlementOwner The_Arbor = hre
and RandomPercent = 50

end
siege_settlement hre2, Three_Towers, maintain
end_if
if I_EventCounter arbor_base1 = 1
and not I_SettlementOwner Sun_House = hre
and not I_SettlementUnderSiege Sun_House
spawn_army
faction hre
character random_name, named character, x 29, y 16, label hre2a
traits GoodCommander 1 , GoodAmbusher 1 , Brave 3 , Hatescatholic 2
unit Norse Axemen exp 4 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit Norse Axemen exp 4 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit Norse Axemen exp 4 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit Norse Axemen exp 4 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit Dismounted Huscarls exp 4 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit Dismounted Huscarls exp 1 armour 1 weapon_lvl 0
unit English Huscarls exp 1 armour 1 weapon_lvl 0
unit English Huscarls exp 1 armour 1 weapon_lvl 0
unit English Huscarls exp 1 armour 1 weapon_lvl 0
unit Viking Raiders exp 2 armour 1 weapon_lvl 0
unit Viking Raiders exp 2 armour 1 weapon_lvl 0
unit Viking Raiders exp 2 armour 1 weapon_lvl 0
end
siege_settlement hre2a, Sun_House, maintain
end_if
end_if
if I_TurnNumber = 6
and I_EventCounter arbor_base1 = 1
and I_CharacterExists hre2a
and I_SettlementUnderSiege Sun_House
siege_settlement hre2a, Sun_House, attack
end_if
if I_TurnNumber = 6
and I_EventCounter arbor_base1 = 0
and I_CharacterExists hre2
and I_SettlementUnderSiege Three_Towers
siege_settlement hre2, Three_Towers, attack
end_if

So, after 6-th turn I have no need in this monitor, how to terminate it correctly?
Second situation is about assimilation script, when player capture settlement he can't recruit elite units from the begining if he doesn't own the whole geographical region (some key settlements in it). So, when he once conquer the region if he lose 1-2 key settlements he shoudn't lose recruit ability, because nobility and people of region are already on his side. It looks like this

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

monitor_event FactionTurnStart not FactionIsLocal
set_event_counter has_stormlands 1
end_monitor

monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType slave
and I_EventCounter no_stormsend = 1
set_event_counter has_stormlands 0
end_monitor

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionIsLocal
if not I_IsFactionAIControlled spain
and not I_SettlementOwner Storms_End = spain
and not I_SettlementOwner Griffins_Roost = spain
and not I_SettlementOwner Felwood = spain
set_event_counter no_stormsend = 1
end_if
if not I_IsFactionAIControlled spain
and I_SettlementOwner Storms_End = spain
and I_SettlementOwner Griffins_Roost = spain
and I_SettlementOwner Felwood = spain
set_event_counter no_stormsend = 0
end_if
end_monitor

monitor_event SettlementSelected SettlementIsLocal
if not I_IsFactionAIControlled spain
and not I_SettlementOwner Storms_End = spain
and not I_SettlementOwner Griffins_Roost = spain
and not I_SettlementOwner Felwood = spain
set_event_counter no_stormsend = 1
end_if
if not I_IsFactionAIControlled spain
and I_SettlementOwner Storms_End = spain
and I_SettlementOwner Griffins_Roost = spain
and I_SettlementOwner Felwood = spain
set_event_counter no_stormsend = 0
end_if
end_monitor

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionIsLocal
if I_EventCounter no_stormsend = 0
set_event_counter has_stormlands 1
end_if
end_monitor

So, when event_counter "has_stormlands = 1" units are avaliable. For AI they're avaliable all the time, for this matter I had to include second event_counter "no_stormsend" to indicate to retorn first counter to 0 at player's turn. I need to set it to 1 when player has all 3 settlements, and then it should have value 1 during the end of campaign. Where should I set terminate_monitor in that case?

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

1) Either a) in both of those last two IFs, b) add another IF below them: "if turn = 6 then terminate", or c) an IF at the start: "if turn > 6 then terminate"

2) In short I would add another counter that is set to 1 only when the player has reached the goal, then add an IF to the start of all of those monitors saying "if goal_reached_counter = 1 then terminate". Maybe you could use no_stormsend for that purpose but, being an event counter, I don't know if you're using it in other files.

Anyway, I think that your script could be simplified a lot which also simplifies the terminate_monitor question...

Code:

declare_counter stormlands_done monitor_event FactionTurnStart not FactionIsLocal if I_CompareCounter stormlands_done = 1 terminate_monitor end_if set_event_counter has_stormlands 1 end_monitor monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType slave if I_CompareCounter stormlands_done = 1 terminate_monitor end_if set_event_counter has_stormlands 0 end_monitor monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionIsLocal if not I_IsFactionAIControlled spain and I_SettlementOwner Storms_End = spain and I_SettlementOwner Griffins_Roost = spain and I_SettlementOwner Felwood = spain set_event_counter has_stormlands 1 set_counter stormlands_done 1 terminate_monitor end_if end_monitor monitor_event SettlementSelected SettlementIsLocal if not I_IsFactionAIControlled spain and I_SettlementOwner Storms_End = spain and I_SettlementOwner Griffins_Roost = spain and I_SettlementOwner Felwood = spain set_event_counter has_stormlands 1 set_counter stormlands_done 1 terminate_monitor end_if end_monitor

I'm assuming that no_stormsend was not being used by any other part of the script / other files.

The third and fourth monitors (yours and mine) trouble me. In hotseat where spain and (e.g.) england are both player factions those monitors will also fire during england's turn, setting has_stormlands to 0 or 1 during their turn. I don't know if that's an issue but as this seems to be aimed at player spain only I would add a "and FactionType spain" condition to both of those monitors.

P.S. Please use the [code][/code] tags (# button in advanced editor) instead of spoilers for script/code. It keeps the indentation intact which is much easier to read.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

Thanks for assistance!

As for first situation I have a large nested ifs script of AI behavior, so it seems to use your a) variant.

As for second, I need to script all factions, not only spain for assimilating. And I asked users, they want no hotseat but only single campain, so I began to do it in that way.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

Hello everyone, sorry to necropost but I'm working on the SSHIP scripts and trying to keep them clean and lights, following all the advice in this thread. I just have two questions:

1) we keep track of every faction turn with this:

Code:

monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType venice set_event_counter faction_turn_venice 1 set_event_counter faction_turn_catholic 1 set_event_counter faction_turn_southern_european 1 log always Turn Start venice ============================================================== end_monitor monitor_event FactionTurnEnd FactionType venice set_event_counter faction_turn_venice 0 set_event_counter faction_turn_catholic 0 set_event_counter faction_turn_southern_european 0 log always --- Turn End venice end_monitor

Would it be better to use "monitor_event I_event_counter faction_turn_venice" instead of "monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionType venice?
If I understand correctly the first version would be tested only 2 times (when faction_turn_venice is set to 1 and when it's set to 0), where the second version would be tested at each faction start.
But of course we don't have any record exported with the first version, so I would not work with all conditions.

2) what is the impact of other files like EDA and EDCT? They're full of tests happening for every characters. Are monitor that much slower than WhenToTest condition, or is it not worth it to go beyond a certain point in optimizing campaign_script?

For exemple I'm thinking of refactoring the previous FactionTurnEnd to this version, allowing to have only one monitor and multiple ifs

Code:

monitor_event FactionTurnEnd TrueCondition ; here stuff that has to be done for any faction if I_EventCounter faction_turn_FACTION = 1 ; to finish a specific faction turn set_event_counter faction_turn_FACTION 0 set_event_counter faction_turn_RELIGION 0 set_event_counter faction_turn_CULTURE 0 log always --- Turn End FACTION end_if ; duplicate for all factions. end_monitor

thanks in advance for any hindsight!

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

1) Pretty sure the performance impact of "monitor_event EventCounter" is higher because it has to check for a counter name each time any event_counter is changed. The difference is probably minimal, but if we are talking optimization, your version might be better.

2) EDA & EDCT can definitely have an impact on turn times the same way the campaign_script does. It becomes very noticeable after adding a lot of new traits/ancs, especially later on in a campaign when there are more characters.

You could just do it like this instead of a FactionTurnEnd monitor for each faction:

Code:

monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart set_event_counter faction_turn_FACTION 0 set_event_counter faction_turn_RELIGION 0 set_event_counter faction_turn_CULTURE 0 end_monitor monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType venice set_event_counter faction_turn_venice 1 set_event_counter faction_turn_catholic 1 set_event_counter faction_turn_southern_european 1 end_monitor monitor_event PreFactionTurnStart FactionType milan set_event_counter faction_turn_milan 1 set_event_counter faction_turn_catholic 1 set_event_counter faction_turn_southern_european 1 end_monitor ;etc.

Re: what´s better? use many "if" condition or use many monitors? (which process less information)

You have a logic issue I think - the event counters you are referencing (and wanting to put into IF loops) need to be created first. I am not sure but I think SSHIP already has those faction monitors and there simply is no way to 'clean them up' as it requires a monitor for each faction.

The primary purpose of the faction monitors is to provide event counters, eg faction_turn_start_[faction] which then can be used to reduce monitor counts when referencing factions and their 'exports'. The log entries are useful for bug hunting.
You can create more event counters within those monitors, but you will not be able to merge the monitors as desired.

As to the 'monitor_event EventCounter' use - needs to be tested if TrueCondition can work, but I can't see why not. Caveat: afaik (more testing) the monitor will only 'fire' if the state of the event counter changes, it doesn't check for the 'static' value of the state, something to be kept in mind.

Code:

monitor_event EventCounter EventCounterType TrueCondition if I_EventCounter sample_counter = 0 default state (value) of counter do stuff end_if if I_EventCounter sample_counter = 1 other state (value) of counter do other stuff end_if if I_EventCounter sample_counter = 2 other state (value) of counter do other stuff end_if end_monitor
