The way I understood it from its original post (viewtopic.php?f=127&t=175704) is that it does override. Guess I was wrong, good catch nolefan.

That makes me wonder if the "mandatory" takes are counted in the "required"? That's a very important part.


So Gilligan, do you think my post above would be correct?

I will wait to Beta. then we will see if it is clear or not :)

Gilligan, cairns thanks for all work around xml.

Mandatory regions are always mandatory to qualify for a bonus....the name is self explanatory ;)
So if you have any bonus collection with a list of required levels, you need to hold all the mandatory region(s) to qualify for that bonus(es). No mandatory region(s) = no bonus.
Mandatory are part of the required count also.
Bonuses always sum together with collections, they do not override. So instead of writing the total value you want as bonus value, you need to calculate how much is already given to you by previous "lower" level of bonuses. The higher bonus you can get from a collection is the sum of all bonus listed into the <bonuses> tag. The fact you qualify for an higher level doesn't mean you don't qualify anymore for the lower one.

e.g.

Code: Select all
<continent>
   <name>Bonus Name</name>
   <bonuses>
     <bonus required="2">1</bonus>
     <bonus required="3">1</bonus>
     <bonus required="4">1</bonus>
   </bonuses>
   <components>
      <territory type="mandatory">TerrA</territory>
      <territory>TerrB</territory>
      <territory>TerrC</territory>
      <territory>TerrD</territory>
   </components>
</continent>


If you hold TerrB and/or TerrC and/or TerrD but you don't hold TerrA --> you receive nothing
If you hold TerrA + 1 of the others components --> you receive 1 additional troop
If you hold TerrA + 2 of the others components --> you receive 2 additional troop
If you hold TerrA + 3 of the others components --> you receive 3 additional troop

Let me know if something is not clear ;)

p.s. remember that the bonus name is just one.

Looks like it, cairns. The uncertainty that I had was from the required tags and whether or not it included the mandatory tag. Thanks nobodies for clearing that up.

Yeah, it is correct. If you hold Praha and 4 towns you receive +1, with praha and 9 you receive +2 (total 1+1), with praha and 13 you receive +3 (total 1+1+1)

The only concern I have is the current bonus name. Actually it is printed in the log only when you hold the higher bonus (i know it's a stupid and unfriendly thing :roll: ) so the player will read that he holds Praha and 4 regions, when it's not....infact he holds praha and 13 towns in that case. read what i wrote as note in the guide for collections to give names to bonuses, at least till the moment I can obtain a fix to have a proper/dedicated name to list all bonuses into collections.

Oneyed, attached is the xml i have done so far.
But when run through the xml tool i get this warning...

Test results:

Warning: Territory Praha has border Kladno, but not vice versa

Warning: Territory Praha has border StČK, but not vice versa

Warning: Territory Bratislava has border Trenčín, but not vice versa

Warning: Territory Bratislava has border ZSK, but not vice versa

Summary: 0 errors and 4 warnings detected in FCSFR3_110113.xml (18 continents, 35 territories)


My question is....can Kladno attack Praha...and all the rest?

Also, in the map, you have both kraj and kraje...is this plural?

yes. capitals could be attacked from region they are in, from towns in the same region and from town adjacent by railway. and all these 8 teritories (StČK, Kladno, Beroun, Tábor, ZSK, Trenčín, Kúty, Nitra) are codded as starting positions. the rest teritories will be divided random.

Oneyed, i do think you should put on map something about kraj and towns being able to assault capitals in those regions and vice-versa...just to clarify for the players. :)

Oneyed, almost there...perhaps (my thoughts only)...
Praha - capital, borders Kraj and Towns in its Kraj
- is not included in town or Kraj bonus
+1...
-1...
...less wordy, yes?

see what others think also :)

so map will be without starting positions. there will be just Praha and Bratislava codded as neutrals n4. the rest of territories will be random deployment.

remember that it has to be coded without positions!

Hello cairns,

nobodies has posted why it has been taking so long for this xml...please read here. viewtopic.php?p=4061241#

The change is extremely small, yet extremely important. All you need to do is all <required> tags with the smallest required amount on each of your collections.

After you do that, I'll be happy to finally stamp this. Also, I see some xml chat up top - if you could please include the post with the final xml what has changed, I'd be very appreciative. :mrgreen:
