I know we did this before but I can't find an example that isn't mixed with a ton of code I still can't follow trough. Please, make a script giving something/anything to a visiting hero, with a timer that resets everyday and uses the window vars.

What is window var? You mean hero variables, (w1-w200)?
Yes, that's what I am not getting to work. w vars. Couldn't remember the name.
Ops, is for the timer to reset everyday for every hero, not to work once a day.

The "script 58 - week of monsters" has a terrible bug I already reported here but it's even worst then I thought, cause an addiction it looks for creatures present in some player's army.
It doesn't store the actual parameters of the selected creature (that someone has in his army), it restores the original ones. So, if you've been enhancing a creature trough Emerald Towers all those changes are gone.
I thought I knew how to fix this but the script is confusing and messes with a lot of global vars, so even if succeed I won't dare to publish the fix...

I don't think that is hard to fix, you need a SN:W var to flag each creature being improved in the emerald tower, then ignore this creature in week of monsters. Do you use custom scripts for tower and week of monsters or regular ones?

"Week of monsters" is still regular, the Emerald Tower I customized it to work every week.
If someone credited does that, there is a test in the Emerald Tower that stops being useful. It tests is you are trying to improve the creature of the week...

I looked at, it isn't a quick fix, flagging all the instances in week of the monsters, compare them with the tower pick then test if no crap happens would require several hours.

Why not store the values of the creature in W vars and restore after the week is over? This was my initial idea and I think it would solve the problem. But to restore it without problems you need to be able to follow the script and check if nothing is missing and I'm still too rusty not to screw that up... (from experience)

Week of the monster script doesn't have one line where creature stats are modified, it parses them through 250 lines and you have to flag them all. This is what is tedious, maybe someone else has a brighter idea, try asking Rerry or Bersy. Russian forums for final solution.

How does one check if players choice is a certain town? I thought it was on !!OW but if it is I don't get what to use.
Sal: If I mess with the alignment of towns AI starts with, will that affect BAI creature growth?

fred, replace:
!!VRz941:S^Nest^;
!!OB1&y1<>18:Hz940;
!!OB1&y1=18:Hz941;
With
!!VRz942:S^Nest^;
!!OB1&y1<>18:Hz940;
!!OB1&y1=18:Hz942;
I forgot z941 was assigned to utopias.

So, I can give an artifact to an hero in the heroes poll, at the start of the game, is that it? I thought I couldn't do that but now that you mention it, I managed to give them to an hero in a prison and that one isn't owned either.
Can you answer the previous one, please?

No, because I don't understand the question. Player town choice is always made in pregame actions, where erm doesn't work.

So, let me explain. Mod is mostly about Castle but I want to make some changes to other towns too, namely auto improve creatures in general and one for town in particular (let's say it's the Fierce Thunderbirds from Emerald Tower but this one gets a ton of bonus not one).
So, I want to enforce players choice to be Castle. If mod checks player isn't Red or Castle exits, only if these two conditions are filled can the mod be used.
You say this can't be done?

Why not simply tell player (message start game) to play castle if he wants better creatures?
