Great! It's looking awesome.  Just one more artifact to go!

I was reading in a tutorial that integers must be whole numbers, and not decimals.  So I'm struggling with an Exlir of life artifact that gives 50% health bonus, plus regeneration to living, non-living and undead creatures.  How can I tell the system to round up to the nearest integer?

It will round it automatically, can't do it other way. For increase HP by 50%, check the stack health and add bonus. For regeneration, you don't need to worry, just give back the lost HP points.

Man... I think you need to open some wog maps and look closely to scripts and also read the Help (I feel like parroting someone else here, do I?)

1) A trigger (!?) can't trigger another trigger. So !?FU407 followed by !?BG means nothing.
2) BM means stack. Which stack, then you need BM#
3) It seems you don't understand W vars yet, just leave them, you don't need here.
4) Battle commands cannot be placed in other than battle triggers. !?AE followed by !!BM will give you an interesting error message.

But first, start by using "disable smileys" icon on your left, so one can read your codes without thinking you are drunk.

I am trying to give free movement on water, but I am stuck on diagonals, as they require >100, compared to vertical/horizontal. I tried also OxFea code but on water the pathfinding becomes chaotic with this script, while movement point are kept safe, no matter diagonals or not. Weird...seems like I will have to give 140 points/tile then reset to previous value on anchor point, to prevent exploits.

Sorry, there are just so many different help sections that I can't find ones that are in-depth with specific tutorial examples for me to learn. I trust your advice.  Have you written a tutorial section that I can learn from? I have found with other help sections, they just give an example or two and I learn the pattern, but not the method.  I just have this one script to try and figure out and my scripting troubles will come to an end.  But on the plus side, I did learn how to disable smileys just now lol.

It is explicit. When you use a receiver (!!) as BM, check BM column. A trigger as !?BG, check BG. If you can't find something in the columns, click on Triggers or Receivers boxes in the upper right corner, you will get a detailed list. I wish we could mix them as we like, but there are restrictions. Try easier scripts first, you want to use everything after 1 months in, wanna beat some record?

I am not sure if I understood you correctly, but I think you need to store the value of movement points while the hero is in boat and then restore it with each step the hero takes.

Yes it is a possibility, I will store when hero jumps in boat, restore on anchor point type. 10 years later I learn that diagonals take more points, heh.

@fanofheroes

For your script there are two choices. One uses EA-# commands to give regeneration (used in Alexander map), but I noticed bugs if AI has it, high chances that stack will freeze.

The other use a special ERA function, which I never used so I am not sure I did it right, however the script works correctly (tested it on archangels, trolls and wraiths).

Thank you so much!!!  I tried getting the wheels rolling.  I understand the triggers and receivers now, but as you can obviously tell from my progress, it would've been a very long time from point A to point B.

And if I want the effects to also show on the adventure map do I take the same script used inside the battle trigger and add it outside?

Forget it, too many problems. If your hero changes boosted creatures with another, or leaves them in mines or garrisons, you will need millions of codes to avoid chaos.

Cool, good point.  I don't like chaos hahaha.  Thank you so much for helping me through this.  Now going to play the scenario that i made, or rather I made with a lot of your help more accurately.  Although I did create the map completely on my own.  It's my version of Middle Earth from lord of the rings.  The scale isn't accurate in terms of geography but it's pretty close.  With some minor add-ons and adjustments.  But the art is cool.  

Thanks again!! =)

First of all hi. I'm an long time Homm 3 - WOG player that i left the game a few years ago but not i'm back at it I forgot all my ERM but i made a few scripts and now i need help with a few things i wanna do.

I Want to make the new caves (The ones that appear in the map editor on the towns section right next to the adventure cave) to appear when i wogify any map replacing other things.

I added this to script00.erm:

**

!!VRy20:S0; [initialize object counter to 0]
!!VRy20&y3=1:+1; [add one to object counter]
!!VRy11&y3=1:Sy20 *7; [number to add to index variable]
!!VRy10&y3=1:S593 +y11; [new index number]
!!VRvy10&y3=1:C63/59/3/-1/0/1/0; [adventure cave2]

!!VRy20&y3=1:+1; [add one to object counter]
!!VRy11&y3=1:Sy20 *7; [number to add to index variable]
!!VRy10&y3=1:S593 +y11; [new index number]
!!VRvy10&y3=1:C63/60/3/-1/0/1/0; [adventure cave3]

!!VRy20&y3=1:+1; [add one to object counter]
!!VRy11&y3=1:Sy20 *7; [number to add to index variable]
!!VRy10&y3=1:S593 +y11; [new index number]
!!VRvy10&y3=1:C63/58/3/-1/0/1/0; [adventure cave4]

!!FU671&y20>016/1/3/y20/40; [replace 40% of dwarven treasuries]
!!FU671&y20>055/0/3/y20/40; [replace 40% of mystical gardens]
!!FU671&y20>084/0/3/y20/10; [replace 10% of crypts]


But it's not working. Any ideas why?

There's not enough information to do more than guess (TLI as opposed to TMI), but guessing is my middle name.  I'll attach the original section of script code from script00 at the end of my comments.

As you can see below, there is a long list of objects which will replace Dwarven Treasuries, etc., in the script.  I don't know if you actually added (appended) your code after the original code (below) or replaced the original code entirely with your code.

In either case you need to set y3 to 1 to enable the replacement of your objects.  In the original code, y3 is set by interrogating the WoG option (UN:P) for each new object, to see if the player has enabled it.  You may wish to re-define some of the P-codes to apply to your objects, or just enable them all automatically (!!VRy3:S1;).  In the latter case you could just remove all the y3=1 conditions.

I am assuming, without checking because it's not my script so I don't have to, that the objects you are replacing are a match (RYR - red, yellow, red square objects) for the objects which are being replaced, and that your terrain/back wall/edge x/edge y parameters are correct.  Otherwise the replacement may not work.

Case 1:  you added your code after the original code.  In that case, 80% of the Dwarven Treasuries, etc., have already been converted to Arcane Towers, etc., and you are telling ERM to replace 40% of the remaining 20% = 8% of the original counts.  Suppose there were only 10  Dwarven Treasuries on the map to begin with.  8% of 10 is zero, in integer arithmetic.

Case 2:  you replaced the original code.  Then maybe you forgot to set y3 to 1.

Case 3:  you did neither of the above.  I won't speculate on that.

** table fields: type/subtype/footprint/terrain/back wall/edge x/edge y
** footprint values:  0 = Y, 1 = RY, 2 = YR, 3 = RYR, 4 = other
...
