Hey David
Can't you translate it over to Swedish, just for the fun of it

But seriously this was some really heavy stuff. Seems like you has to learn C/Javascript for the more complicated functions =/ But what don't you do for the cause

Right, especially the 147 pages function list, eh?

The manual clarified some last bits I was still wondering over, and the function list will clearly come in handy. Don't think I'll print it out though.

This is great, there's a lot of things you can do with this script editor. Kinda down on the fact that there isn't much in the way of eye candy. Hopefully they can patch it, or put it in an expansion pack.

The link should be fixed now. We changed the name of the folder for our downloads the other day. Thought we had made the changes everywhere, but I guess we missed this one. Sorry about that.

I'm designing in Conquerors and it's good fun. I want to purchase RON but would eventually spend more time editing than playing so........?

Is the editor good or what? Cos this forum is tiny but the game is new, and games aint cheap here...

RoN Scenario Editor & Script Editor are very easy to use, self-explanatory almost, you just need a push in the right direction and the rest will be as easy as reading a book.

YOu can set game rules to Custom, which lets you choose about 10 conditition like Musical Chairs, Assassin and Barbarians at the Gates. You can also set it to Scenario, in which case you'll need to find a victroy command.

Either script them in or download one of the many mods on this site that allow you to use CTW units.

There's a really good mod out there. I use it too.

Do you have TaP?

AFAIK, .sce is RoN only, .scx is TaP only.

Look, I know I'm a complete idiot, but HELP!

I tried to program a scenario, but the code won't work.

That, and I don't know how to put combat units from a different Age into the map at a certain time and I'm clueless on how to put messages onscreen when you meet up with the time-displaced units.

Hi Obsidian,
Can you please tell me how can I create entirely new nations with totally new unique features and get them in the conquer the world map as well as in the single player list???? Many thanks in advance.

you can't create new nations, but you can find ones that you don't like and overwrite them with new stuff.

i'm not that familiar with the code, i'm just good at scripting scenarios. although i have the attention span of a wombat so i never finish that many scenarios.

anyway

good luck
