Well, is this a recurrent error, it comes whatever you do? The code is from adventure cave script and in general that script is safe.
If is only a "one time error" there is no need to report.

Salamandre, can I ask you if you know any ERM tutorials/posts I could read to start ? is it worth learning it (I have already average programming knowledge, is it a hard/subtle language ?).

There is a very well documented manual, then you have tons of mods, maps and stand alone scripts where you will find almost all you want to copy/paste, then modify. Then depends mostly on what you want to do.

i've been searching on here to no avail. is the WoG creatures' abilities hard-coded? is it possible to just remove/add a line of code to an existing script to disable an ability?

@fred79 - if you can add that hability with the Emerald Towers is a flagged hability. See !!MA:X and !!BM:F and Format FL.

@ bloodsucker: thanks for the help, but that's greek to me, man. do i have to create my own code, or are WoG creature abilities part of an existing code that can be simply gotten rid of or changed?

Each creature has its own code, so you must make a precise list, then submit it to OxFea, he alone may answer you.

i do still have my unfinished list of objects/creatures that need scripted for my object patch; maybe i can include it, since the creatures i want to change are in the patch. he will certainly have his work cut out for him, though.

Is it just me, or does Snowman produce 72 Santa Gremlins every day?
Is there a way for Snowman to stop producing Santa Gremlins every day and get a fixed weekly growth (say 8)?
Anyone?

I checked and it produces daily 4 SG. That option is hardcoded, maybe Bersy could fix it for next release.
But with a manual script it is possible to do it too, I guess. Try to do it on post visit !$OB[snowman-ID], check if any gremlins inside, and if not, set PO998 to greater than 0. Everyday, loop snowmen, and if PO998 value>0, set SG to 0 number. Then in timer, set PO to all snowmen to 0 each first day of the week.

I changed Santa gremlins in my mod with a much stronger unit (upgraded Lizard Warriors) and 72 each would amass a crowd. I wonder why was it changed.
I could live with 4 daily, cause 4x7=28 and this isn't that big a deal. I don't think I will add the script though.

I have found a problem about multiple creature recruitment window set by CA#: D.
Though it works fine to me, AI won't recruit any creature from the new recruitment slot.
It seems that original AI recruit system doesn't recognize slots added by CA#: D.
Please solve that problem, thanks!

Yes, that feature is for human only, AI will not use it and I see no one available to fix it.

Thanks Salamandre it works OK. It doesn't accumulates creatures though if the "dwellings accumulate creatures" option is on. I don't use it myself anyways so it is no big deal.
It's just that I wonder what went wrong and the 4 per day bonus was transformed into the whopping 72 per day growth. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I disabled the guards:
!?PI;
!!UN:C7721205/4/222; ***Guards***
!?GM0;
!!UN:C7721205/4/222; ***Guards***
Since the creature was changed I thought the Santa Guards should go. Do you think that's why the hardcoded growth malfunctioned? If so there may be a roundabout, since i don't really mind the +4 per day, it's just that 72 is way too much

Well, the snowman is clearly bugged so for now all we can is set its growth to normal. No way I can make it work with "creatures cumulate", because we don't have a precise number of growth, you say 72, I got 4. Bugged.

I encountered another bug that may not be erm related per se, but still bothers me.
I use crexpbon.txt to change some of the creatures special abilities around. So here is the tricky part.
No matter what I change to this txt file the creature bonuses are the same as the ones before.
For instance, say I gave (in the past) Air Elementals the fly ability through crexpbon.txt and it works OK, no worries.
Now, If I want to delete this ability, or edit it, or even add a new one, I go again to the txt file and edit it accordingly.
When I enter the game however, Air Elementals still have the Fly ability. Nothing I did was found in the game.
Here is the insane part. Even If I completely delete the txt file, the abilities for my first edit are still there! Note, the file is missing but the abilities are there.
The only solution would be to edit the abilities through erm, but I seriously can't figure out why (and seriously HOW) is this happening.
I tried deleting the file, reinstaling my mod, even copy the original crexpbon.txt file but still, the experience bonuses are set as default in my first edit. Truly mind-bending.
Does anyone know why could this be happening? It doesn't really make sense.

This could have two reasons to exist, I think. One is that you replaced core files in Heroes3.lod (or whatever the name is)or you placed modified txt in core data. Another reason could be that your cache isn't cleaned properly, have you tried to reboot computer?
And a thirst reason, basic inattention. It happened me by the past to observe paranormal events when working on mods, as changing the data 1000 tiles and still have the old one pooping, reboot computer, same, it drove me crazy.
And finally it was just that I was changing the files in other mod, not in the one I had to.

No it is not any of those reasons. I encountered it too many times to be a mistake and I double check any action. Furthermore my mod is top priority on mod manager so it wouldn't matter if I had an older crexpbon.txt file in one of the other lods.
I am just saying it is one of the mysteries. just like the Santa growth set to 72

Hello! I have few questions about ERM:
1) Is it possible with ERM to display battleground animation in other way than with !!BM:V ?
2) Is it possible to extend the list from Format SI?
3) Is it possible to change cursor when I *hover* mouse pointer over a creature in combat? Like on Tent turn, cursor changes to First Aid cursor when mouse is over creature, but changes to "cannot" when it is not.

1) I saw chinese examples where they do it with UN:C hacks. But good luck to find infos in their forums, this is harder than adding a 10th town. (if Hawaiing see this, he will give them I think)
2) Pretty sure not, no one added a spell till now.
3) Yes, try MM, example:
!?MM0;
!!MM:D?i; get mouse position in battle
!!FU|i<1/i>188:E; exit if outside battlefield
!!BU:Ei/?y1; get stack at position
!!if&y1>-1:; if stack there and alive, change cursor to gnoll flail
!!UN:R7/0/0; (enable cursor change)
!!UN:R5/4/9;
!!en:;
