Sanginir Tribe

[obtuse orchid]

but i can find out

unitEffect?

i can copy poison code for this wait let me cook

should i make leech work if units are same hp

if i did, bats would dominate warriors

if i didnt, they would not dominate warriors as hard, and live with 5 hp

oh it does work on same hp enemies

nice

yall will ened to lock in

to beat sanginir

[versed whale]

bro why

literally

add 1 gld entry

and do unit.AddEffect(<youreffectenumcachedandall>)

[obtuse orchid]

💥

[obtuse orchid]

if this is in poison code i would copy it

btw

i know its not hard

[versed whale]

bro

its not in poison code

[obtuse orchid]

shut up ✋

🤏

[versed whale]

im converting my project omggg im shitting my pants will i lose 2 years of progress

ok thats anticlimactic i need to wait 10 years for the shaders to compile

[tacit pasture]

Also addpatchdatatype

[versed whale]

no need

its built into polymod

[tacit pasture]

Really?

Oh

[versed whale]

i think so

[tacit pasture]

I don't think so

I mean Militas had it

Long ago

Idk what now

[versed whale]

wtf

its not

and no tileeffect aswell

wtfff

thats so stupid

[tacit pasture]

So mention it to bananique idk exact syntax rn

Will be home in an hour

[obtuse orchid]

i have this

issues are "effectdata" cant be found and UnitEffect doesnt have a definition for it

which is an easy fix, gld

wait it must UnitEffect instead of EffectData

hmmm now type

[versed whale]

ok so u use UnitEffect.Type

first of all

second of all

[obtuse orchid]

.Type doesnt work

its not a thing

[versed whale]

fym

oh wait

yeah

just use UnitEffect

as is

[obtuse orchid]

that is in fact what i was doing

[versed whale]

i always mix this and unitability up

[versed whale]

im not sure effectData.Type suggests that but ok

[obtuse orchid]

refer to the image i literally just sent

how dumb do u think i am bruh

[versed whale]

not at all

[obtuse orchid]

ok so

is this fixed by gld

cuz how would the main.cs detect that

[versed whale]

no

[versed whale]

do exactly this

but without .type

[obtuse orchid]

cuz i had this

[obtuse orchid]

I ALREADY DID DAWG

im making it dosomething now

[versed whale]

then good, all u need to do is do gld and addPatchDataType

[obtuse orchid]

gld

and wtf is

addpatchdatatype

[versed whale]

ok first of all unitEffect not UnitEffect in gld pls, consistency is key

[versed whale]

1 sec

[obtuse orchid]

oh ye mb

[versed whale]

PolyMod.Loader.AddPatchDataType("unitEffect", typeof(UnitEffect));

[obtuse orchid]

i think sacrifice code still works right @tacit pasture so i should be able to just copy and paste that one

[obtuse orchid]

ty

[tacit pasture]

You have to do enumcache

[obtuse orchid]

wait does that go in the load method

[tacit pasture]

Yes

And the EnumCache is

EnumCache<UnitEffect>.getType()

I believe so

[obtuse orchid]

GetType

[tacit pasture]

No no

[obtuse orchid]

ripè

[tacit pasture]

The addpatchdata was okay

Just put it in Load

[obtuse orchid]

it is in load

[tacit pasture]

Yeah but the whole line was fine

Syntax wise

No need to put enumcache there

[obtuse orchid]

brooo

[tacit pasture]

That is for when you want to use the effect later

[obtuse orchid]

oh i understand now

mb

mb

mb

[versed whale]

literally polib code

now sanginir will be cursed to never work

mwahahaha

[obtuse orchid]

ok no errors

[obtuse orchid]

WHAT

NO

lol i dont need addpatchdata

ts works on its own

[tacit pasture]

you do tho

[versed whale]

not in game it doesnt

[obtuse orchid]

yall tried to trick me i knew you were tricksters

[tacit pasture]

obviously vs code wont show error

[obtuse orchid]

oh

[tacit pasture]

bro

cause it is runtime

[obtuse orchid]

wait how come

it needs to check in patch

for unit effect

but not for literally anything else

[obtuse orchid]

using ur goofy polib code

[versed whale]

cuz this one isnt built in by polymod

[obtuse orchid]

that makes empowerment break

[tacit pasture]

it has to check in enumcache for everything custom

[versed whale]

thats old polib

[obtuse orchid]

so can i be sent over a functional polib

pls

idc about verify

send it in dms

[tacit pasture]

and you dont need addpatchdata for usual custom stuff but uniteffects is not in enumcache by default

@versed whale can you do it im not at pc ig

[versed whale]

i cant be fucked to test my shit rn im doing gamedev with my 1 in 10 years burst of motivation

[tacit pasture]

bro what? just send over a single file

[versed whale]

ok fine i need to compile 3k shaders

[obtuse orchid]

what

shaders

[versed whale]

single file that doesnt work

[obtuse orchid]

oh

[obtuse orchid]

what are u making

[tacit pasture]

uh what???

[obtuse orchid]

brooo

[versed whale]

im in the middle of a change

[versed whale]

game

i mean i would

but

3k shaders

cuz i upgraded ue5 versions

anyways ig while compiling shaders ig i can fix polib after breaking it again

[obtuse orchid]

guys check out this ✨ method ✨ with this ✨ code ✨

ok wait

one small detail tho

if i make it remove effect there

does it remove when it attacks

[versed whale]

yes but it returns good number so its ok

[obtuse orchid]

or does it remove as soon as the possibility arises

wait no thats not an issue

cuz

it only applies the effect once leech healing triggered

[tacit pasture]

where does the effect get added?

[obtuse orchid]

(even if unit has max hp btw)

[obtuse orchid]

in leech healing

right before it checks for hp

:)

so hopefully

if it works as intended

leech healing detects the unit has less hp
effect gets added
right after, checks for the effect
it has the effect so it grants bonus attack
removes the effect

[versed whale]

wait actually

shouldnt banan patch prefix for battleResults @tacit pasture ?

yes he should

[tacit pasture]

uh idk this might also work

[versed whale]

im not sure

[tacit pasture]

oh yeah it would work inversely

i think

[obtuse orchid]

rip it doesnt work

[versed whale]

yeah

patch battleResults.<get battle results or whatever idk the name i forgor>

[obtuse orchid]

so all the stuff i did in the empowerment with getattack

is useless?

[versed whale]

BattleHelpers.GetBattleResults

[versed whale]

no

you gotta switch the prefix out for this method

not attackAction

im guessing

[obtuse orchid]

hey one small issue

leech is always triggering

even on high hp enemies

wait

it triggers when the enemy will have less hp than them when the battle ends

should it be prefix instead of postfix

[versed whale]

yeah ofc

you wanna do stuff before the stuff happens

[obtuse orchid]

so in that case

if the effect is applied before the attack happens

maybe the effect will trigger the attack bonus

but prob not

[versed whale]

the idea is: prefix to add effect --> attack calculation gets attack of unit --> postfix getAttack, check for effect, and if effect is there then put higher damage --> remove effect when attack is over (probably postfix the same method u prefixed or sum)

[obtuse orchid]

what i have now is prefix adds effect --> get attack postfix > checks for effect > put higher damage > remove effect

[versed whale]

main point is try to prefix patch this

instead of attackAction

[obtuse orchid]

rip

ok so i accidentally broke it

none of my units do any damage any more

and

empowerment doesnt work

should leech even increase attack tho

it seems a bit strong

and i dont want to get another headache from figuring ts out

so i am making the executive deicision

to make leech not increase attack

ok what to make next

probably sacrifice

i think i can just copy and paste from old sanginir

but tomorrow cuz today i dont want to work too hard

yeah so something went wrong

wtf

is going on

its so glitchy

when a leech unit kills another unit

it simply

doesnt

asfjaofjaoegj

prefix issue prob

im gonna switch it to postfix

[hasty zephyr]

This is a feature

Not a bug

[obtuse orchid]

no no no

perhaps healing after the other unit has less hp is a feature

[hasty zephyr]

The polytopian is still there it just doesn’t have any blood left c:

[obtuse orchid]

[hasty zephyr]

I saw that

[obtuse orchid]

saw what

[hasty zephyr]

👀

Uh

[obtuse orchid]

[hasty zephyr]

Nothing

[obtuse orchid]

@fluid walrus when jeptir

[obtuse orchid]

guys i need to lock tf in

i mustn't dwell on previous problems

i must move on to the next polyscript tomorrow

because waiting wont make fapingvin and wasd find the issue faster

tomorrow i plan to do sacrifice and more monuments

i hope to have sanginir done by next week

[hasty zephyr]

🩸

[obtuse orchid]

hi cleigh

[obtuse orchid]

wait i can literally do "hunger"

(when a unit with leech kills a unit inside city borders, it gets +1 hp)

i can literally do it by making an improvement that gives 1 population and is consumed and discrete

or maybe just discrete idk

i'll have to experiment

but i make it unbuildable

and when leech triggers, it spawns that improvement

i can throw it into the leech code

cleigh am i cooking

[hasty zephyr]

🥘

[obtuse orchid]

real shit cleigh

[tacit pasture]

ig it would work

did empowerment ever fix itself?

[obtuse orchid]

yeah, it was polib

[tacit pasture]

rip

really?

[obtuse orchid]

yes

i removed polib

works fine

i was on old version

[tacit pasture]

i think i tested it with polib

ohh

i see

[sour beacon]

RAHHHHHHHH

oops

wrong chat

mb

[tacit pasture]

lmao

[obtuse orchid]

lol

w klipi

[versed whale]

old effect code i suppose

[tacit pasture]

btw while touring polib code

i think we need to rewrite more thing than i originally thought

[versed whale]

like?

[obtuse orchid]

better bird design compared to last one or is it still bad

its more polytopia ish i think

better actually

[humble girder]

I like this newer one better, feels more polytopia-y

[obtuse orchid]

ty

ok i have a concern

i put leech in here

i put this in leech*

so if it works it should place the improvement

the only issue is

it will work in enemy cities

and i dont have gamestate in the parameters

so idk how to make it so it will only spawn in my territory

[obtuse orchid]

rip it doesnt even work

wait yes it does it just doesnt give pop like it should

[obtuse orchid]

i also cant find how poison does it

aaaaaaaaaaaand i forgot to keep the old sanginir dll to find out how to make sacrifice work

..

aa

aweaweaweaweawe

[versed whale]

thats not how you do that

do

GameManager.GameState.ActionStack.Add( new BuildAction(<fill out the parameters>) )

[versed whale]

waaay better

[obtuse orchid]

ok

[obtuse orchid]

yeah so the bot is simply misinforming me now

cuz i used bot code

[versed whale]

yes

also

wdyt

about the gradient

[obtuse orchid]

its awesome

[versed whale]

ok

[obtuse orchid]

im on the fence about that once

[sour beacon]

ehy gradient

[obtuse orchid]

on one hand it fits the theme

on the other it doesnt fit the polytopia field theme unless its elyrion

[versed whale]

idk, seemed cool

[sour beacon]

It doesnt look cool

i like ancients ground without it

i think gradient is ely gimmick

[versed whale]

fair

idk

i cant decide

ok i wont do gradient

i got a better idea

no im actually gonna leave it as is

[sour beacon]

bro we have a sprite which also matches the lote

do mountains

wait tf its not ancients chat

[versed whale]

yes

[tacit pasture]

Ancient sanginir

[versed whale]

man i thought we were moving the convo

[obtuse orchid]

what parameters dawg cuz this aint working to get custom improvement

[versed whale]

you can check by hovering over BuildAction

[obtuse orchid]

🤔

lets go dnspy

[tacit pasture]

if you start typing BuildAction(
inside the parentheses vs code will let you see all overloads (with a little arrow)

[tacit pasture]

somehow like this

[obtuse orchid]

oh um

ok

[tacit pasture]

bro can you take any smaller screenshots 😭

[obtuse orchid]

ok but dnspy tried to cook

i just have to like

fix issue

[tacit pasture]

System.IntPtr is one of its overloads and you generally dont want to use that one

i see

why it happens

[obtuse orchid]

so how to fix

[tacit pasture]

you have ⁨new BuildAction(new BuildAction(⁩ like you dont need to nest it

[obtuse orchid]

i want to get the owner btw

real

wait tf

it works now

lmao

i didnt catch that

mb

now i just need to switch

k im cooking

so

with this owner thing

does it make it so

only the owner of the unit

will trigger the placement of the improvement

if it is

wait

hold on

so

if its in enemy territory

[tacit pasture]

no it means that the improvement's builder is the ⁨owner⁩ id

[obtuse orchid]

will it still place improvement

[obtuse orchid]

so will it give pop to enemy city

if it is done

in their territory

[tacit pasture]

idk

[obtuse orchid]

rip

[tacit pasture]

lol i mean you gotta test these or read the code

[obtuse orchid]

will it work in pass and play so i can check? ik pass and play is buggy af

[tacit pasture]

but i dont know off the top of my head

[obtuse orchid]

k well im gonna try it

so i think after this i just need to do transform, vampire castle connecting to capital, and vampiric aura

and all the stuff related to bat swarms

and also reducing movement of bat on water

and also increasing movement of bat when leech triggers but i can just apply effect speedy

holy aura

no errors

sanginir production is hella high today

i got frenzy AND feast done in like 20 minutes

also

i also have to do sacrifice

and i know it has 2 parts, one to heal, and one to check if it is possible

and the one to check if it is possible is what i will be using for vampiric aura cuz u can track neighbours with it

and bat summoner

ez af

frenzy is a go

[tacit pasture]

There is an action that trains a unit you can use

[obtuse orchid]

hunger on the other hand does not work

it does not increase pop of city

[obtuse orchid]

k

[tacit pasture]

welcome to the vast world of polyscriptin'

[obtuse orchid]

the vast world that wont let me build improvements upon killing a unit

[tacit pasture]

it lets you it is just stubborn

[obtuse orchid]

wait i put the wrong tech for its unlock

yeah so um dont ever listen when i speak ever again

wait it spawned improvement

im locked in

SHIT IT GAVE POP TO ENEMY CITY

STOIP BRO I BEG

[tacit pasture]

[obtuse orchid]

ok wait

[tacit pasture]

(you can check if you are currently inside your own territory)

[obtuse orchid]

ez

fapingvin im locked in

but i had already given 3 pop to aquarion city... is it too late

[tacit pasture]

its aquarion they aint gonna suddenly become op just cause of 3 free population

[obtuse orchid]

real

its a level 1 city

most they get is an explorer (they dont pick workshop lol)

[tacit pasture]

i think they pick purely randomly (yes even in newest of versions)

[tacit pasture]

btw are you sure this tribe isnt too op?

[obtuse orchid]

WOW IT WORKS

[obtuse orchid]

not at all

[tacit pasture]

🔥

[obtuse orchid]

you guys are balance testing for me

but keep in mind i just did remove leech increasing attack

also im tempted to remove vampiric aura just cuz it would be a headache

or would it

[tacit pasture]

what is it

[obtuse orchid]

i think next i want to make sacrifice tho its a big part of the tribe's roots

[obtuse orchid]

when a unit without leech is standing next to a vampire, it gains leech

shit

so

my strat didnt work

enemy city still gains pop

[tacit pasture]

show code

[tacit pasture]

i mean wdym this will only build it in your territory

[obtuse orchid]

wait

hmmm

it builds it on the tile of the unit defeated

vamp here just killed unit on the water and improvement spawned there

but thats a non issue ngl

should i change workshop sprite for sanginir

[tacit pasture]

if you can ig go ahead

[obtuse orchid]

wait its cuz i forgot to build after changing this

thats why

well

i built

[tacit pasture]

i mean not all sprites are replaceable iirc yet

[obtuse orchid]

but didnt grab the new dll

[obtuse orchid]

thats fine

[tacit pasture]

also it is best to start new games after new dll (it will still apply but might sometimes break if you change something like that) imo

[obtuse orchid]

i was mostly just wondering if i could

[tacit pasture]

idk

[obtuse orchid]

but it messes with the vibe of the city

same with oarj

park

[tacit pasture]

but if you cant you can replace it with polyscripts for sure

[obtuse orchid]

nah, i'd win

AHA

no spawning in enemy territory

also frenzy only works if it kills the other unit

cuz then ur unit takes damage immediately

so i'll change the tooltip

wait tf

it was already on unit kill

holy aura

i predicted this would be a thing lmao

unintended success

you get invited to a party
the people at the party:

OHOHO HUNGER WORKS AND I MADE IT ALL BY MYSELF

klipi would be proud

(he wouldnt)

[tacit pasture]

btw i think you can just simply replace workshop image

i see no reason why it wouldnt work

[obtuse orchid]

tried to copy and paste old sacrifice code and it didnt work, rip

might as well start from scratch but idk how neighbours work

i'll need to learn if i plan on keeping vampiric aura in the game tho

[tacit pasture]

bro when there is an error why dont you post whole image? 😭

[obtuse orchid]

i dont quite understand how this works

[tacit pasture]

i have no recollection of how i wrote sacrifice code 1 year ago

[tacit pasture]

and dont want to mine it up from my archives

[tacit pasture]

dnspy cooked with that decompilation

⁨```
bool flag = !__result;
if(!flag)

😭😭😭

[obtuse orchid]

double negative lol

[tacit pasture]

so just ⁨if(__result)⁩

got it

[obtuse orchid]

thats not the issue

btw

[tacit pasture]

ok havent read whole thing yet

[obtuse orchid]

[tacit pasture]

i am a slow reader

[obtuse orchid]

mb

[obtuse orchid]

https://klipy.com/gifs/sorry-bro-hand-on-shoulder

ok wait

i understand how the neighbour thing works, if we disregard the error

and i can use

this

it gets a list of tile neighbours

and

goes through them 1 by 1

and checks for requirement

[tacit pasture]

yes

hover over error

[tacit pasture]

ok aosdfaspdoichasv

so it is decompilation issue

cause i am pretty sure

i used foreach

[obtuse orchid]

i can just put unitType enum cache shenanigans with vampire to get the vampiric aura

only issue is actually adding leech and ensuring it actually works

[tacit pasture]

so to fix it

there is a special type of cycle in c# that replaces ⁨for(int i=0;i<n; i++)⁩

if we want to cycle through a list we can use

⁨foreach(var item in List_of_items){ code based on item⁩

so you can cycle through a list like this.

You can use
⁨foreach(var tile in gameState.Map.GetTileNeighbors(tile.coordinates)⁩
which is very likely what i did

but this is technically just a workaround

[obtuse orchid]

?

[tacit pasture]

the real issue is technically that .GetTileNeighbors returns an il2cpp list. Which is not the same as a systemlist. You will hate il2cpp from now on

[obtuse orchid]

ok

thats the issue

[obtuse orchid]

idk what allat is about

well i do but why are u explaining something

that isnt the issue

[tacit pasture]

because it solves it

[obtuse orchid]

oh

[tacit pasture]

but like in a workaround-y way, kinda feels cheating idk

I mean I did that probably years ago, and it compiles correctly, but does not decompile correctly when viewed through dnspy

[obtuse orchid]

?

yeah im so confused now

u broke i

[tacit pasture]

bro

let me explain

so

[obtuse orchid]

soryryryryry

[tacit pasture]

first, put var before tileneighbors and it will sole it. second, there are no longer tileneighbor[i], instead it is ⁨item⁩, The i-th indexed item is ⁨item⁩ cause that is foreach. Goes through each item in a list of items

i mean you can do it with a normal for cycle too

if you dont want foreach

cause i kinda lied earlier, as i misunderstood

basically both solutions work

you just have to put var before tileneighbors

so you can copy whole old sacrifice code and put var before, or you can do foreach

[obtuse orchid]

do i replace tilenightbors(i) with "item"

[tacit pasture]

no need

[obtuse orchid]

oh ok

mb

[tacit pasture]

cause you use for(i)

not foreach(item)

[obtuse orchid]

i understand

ok

boom

[tacit pasture]

it is literally just a handy shortcut for cycling through a list

[obtuse orchid]

im gonna switch that name

[tacit pasture]

lol i remember naming that method

[obtuse orchid]

will it work is the question

[tacit pasture]

disbandunitaction gives back stars i believe

if you dont want that use KillUnitAction

[obtuse orchid]

k

wait

,false

should remove stars back

cuz

i put killunit there

and

[tacit pasture]

oh nevermind then

[obtuse orchid]

it became error

saying something about 3 arguments

the only difference is the 3rd argument

and

[tacit pasture]

idk, i don't know polytopia code by heart bruh

[obtuse orchid]

difference is

disband gives stars

kill doesnt

[tacit pasture]

nice

[obtuse orchid]

are these pro inferencing skills

also

i saw wasd do something similar

when he sent image of pactions

yeah so

not only does sacrifice not work

but

hunger is back to giving enemy cities pop

[obtuse orchid]

rip

[tacit pasture]

did you build and stuff?

[obtuse orchid]

i did in fact

build and stuff

must be a "cansacrifice" issue for sacrifice

hunger idk

wait it only does it sometimes

i'd have to investigate

...wait

lmao thats goof

so

if ur unit

is in ur territory

and it hits a lower hp enemy unit but doesnt kill it

the pop goes to the enemy

not to you

[tacit pasture]

cause you check on the tile of the enemy? the unit's owner

and if unit destroys enemy it moves there

[obtuse orchid]

oh

[tacit pasture]

what method are you patching?

it can be solved

[obtuse orchid]

the leech one

[tacit pasture]

no i mean

[obtuse orchid]

so

[tacit pasture]

polytopia code

[obtuse orchid]

attackaction

i know

i was cheking

checking

wait

its cuz

cansacrifice

checks if i have the tribeability

[tacit pasture]

yes

[obtuse orchid]

lemme just remove that rq

[tacit pasture]

i believe i tied it to tribeability

[obtuse orchid]

yup

u did in fact do that

[tacit pasture]

which was unlocked in a tech

[obtuse orchid]

so if i just remove that

i should be fine

cuz it only triggers if the improvement is built

and improvement is manual discrete etc

[tacit pasture]

btw for attacker one, you can check if tile2.unit.owner is __instance.attacker

or something

idk

to check whether attacker moved onto the tile

or not

you can also check with battleresults but idk how to get those atm

[obtuse orchid]

tile1 is target, tile2 is attacker btw

[tacit pasture]

origin is a coordinate that is for sure

[obtuse orchid]

wait

[tacit pasture]

basically

[obtuse orchid]

hmmmmm

[tacit pasture]

or check if origin tile is empty? actually i am not sure how that part works exactly

you gotta experiment

cause idk

[obtuse orchid]

no thats weird

ok so

umm

tf

ok i tried something

so the tileowner is the owner of the attacking unit, yours

wait that makes no sesnse

eflawkdpigjqwêkèhbq

nvm

ok so

if the owner of the tile

is the same

as the owner of the tile of the unit

then

it goes

which should work

but for some reason

it makes improvement on the attacked tile

wait i know why

tile.coordinates

should be tile2.coordinates

nvm

holy shit im cooking today

sacrifice can now always be used

aaaaa

ok so

i think i know why

i put the result as false if it is sacrifice improvement, but set it to true if it finds a unit without max hp

also nearly 6k messages wow

sanginir is #3 thread behind polib and my thread

AND IT WORKS

broooo this tribe is so fun

and these cities have so much aura

you can see the glowing red aura

k im done polyscripting for today

i acutally made great progress

actually*

fapingvin if you read this, thanks alot

[tacit pasture]

np and nice work

[obtuse orchid]

ty ty

[tacit pasture]

🤫

[obtuse orchid]

is this a reference to

HEY U DELETED THAT

I SAW THAT FAPINGVIN

[tacit pasture]

What

[obtuse orchid]

u said

[tacit pasture]

[obtuse orchid]

this

so i have 5 things i can get done

one is monuments

another is unit icons

another is bat swarm

another is ability icons

and another is vampire castle

[obtuse orchid]

@hasty zephyr @tacit pasture @versed whale i may have just created the most aura monument of all time

(its emperor's tomb)

[versed whale]

it is aura i can confirm

[heady adder]

pls @obtuse orchid why does your mod not work. do i need to unzip it ??

it's not even recognized by polymod

[tacit pasture]

This mod is currently under construction again to bring it to the newest version of polytopia

[heady adder]

Ah ok

Thanks faping vin

[tacit pasture]

np

bananique is still the one who makes it btw

[heady adder]

Ok

[versed whale]

no

u annexed the mod

[obtuse orchid]

the mod doesnt work, im working on it

also

i dont know if polymod works with .zip files

but to be safe either put it back as a .polymod (i dont know why you zipped it in the first plce) or extract it into a folder

[obtuse orchid]

ty wasd ❤️

[tacit pasture]

it looks realyl cool

[obtuse orchid]

ty fapingvin ❤️ ❤️

this mod is gonna be peak

my first tribe will become my best tribe

the only issue is the hardest parts are the only ones left

[versed whale]

it does

[obtuse orchid]

oh

ok

[heady adder]

just it downloaded as zip

[obtuse orchid]

oh

well the old version

doesnt work too well

so i dont recommend using it

until i upload the update + rework

which will be like a week depending on how available fapingvin is

[heady adder]

i respected them

[robust turtle]

Dude i called you fapking not fap

[heady adder]

you re tard

[robust turtle]

It's an upgrade

[tacit pasture]

ik

[obtuse orchid]

ok i hope to get

work done today

i want to do transformation but idk how it would work

tho i can poke in boat data and stuff

[versed whale]

upgrade? idk what you want

but boat stuff could also help

EmbarkAction maybe

or idk

what am i even saying ong

[obtuse orchid]

i want a manual ability

that turns any unit (unless specified otherwise)

into a certain other unit

however

the certain other unit

can change back

at any time

[versed whale]

uhh yeah embark

and disembark

ig

[obtuse orchid]

disembark is done when the unit hits land

or something

its not manual

[versed whale]

i think it can be no?

[obtuse orchid]

doubt

[versed whale]

idk check

[obtuse orchid]

i am

i have no clue how this works

it doesnt mention terrain type

idk how i would even turn unit back

and also

i cant make it the same as boats cuz then only one unit will be able to upgrade and i dont want to make 125912591 copies

[obtuse orchid]

tile.SetUnit(passengerUnit);

lemme cook

later

[tacit pasture]

Wait

Oh nevermind

[obtuse orchid]

its for transform

if i understand correctly

then

i turn it into a unit with carry

then an ability (manual discrete improvement btw)

sets the tile unit back to the passenger unit

this would work right

[tacit pasture]

Idk gn

I'm very tired today

[obtuse orchid]

ok

gn

[obtuse orchid]

yeah so i have no clue how i would even attempt to do this

[obtuse orchid]

how do i detect when a manual improvement is used

idk what method to patch either

i doubt it would be embark

[versed whale]

BuildAction

execute

[obtuse orchid]

hmmm

so

that means

i can put it in the leech code too

wait no

but i can put it in the sacrifice code

wait this is useful

UnitState unitState = ActionUtils.TrainUnit(gameState, playerState, tile, unitData);

k im locked in

[obtuse orchid]

for bat train ability tho

[obtuse orchid]

i cant transform unit tho

with buildaction method

i need something else

[obtuse orchid]

how come wasd when you answer one question... you only answer one out of the two or three that i ask

[versed whale]

whats the other 3

[versed whale]

how come? u use manual improvements right?

[obtuse orchid]

yeah tahts what i did

i cant use a unit that uses "upgradesFrom" because thats only one unit

[obtuse orchid]

which method would i need to turn a unit into another unit like the embark but it can also detect when a discrete improvement is activated

[versed whale]

what

dude

my guess is

just patch

buildaction

and like call embarkaction or idfk what

[obtuse orchid]

again, i cant transform the unit from there, because i need unitstate and stuff

[versed whale]

tile.unit

[tacit pasture]

with nullchecks ofc

(idk what the convo is about just saw tile.unit)

[versed whale]

gameState.Map.GetTile(__instance.WorldCoordinates).unit

[versed whale]

yeah ofc

[obtuse orchid]

shitttt i forgot about this

mb

[obtuse orchid]

but worldcoordinates literally doesnt exist in buildaction patch

instance.Coordinates works tho

[versed whale]

ok then coordinates

[obtuse orchid]

yes

[versed whale]

do keep in mind i say these things from memory so idk details

[obtuse orchid]

im trying to get the embark details and stuff cuz thats what i'll be using but

[versed whale]

its usually WorldCoordinates, Coordinates, or if multiple: Origin, Target

[obtuse orchid]

the issue is

wait

nvm

[versed whale]

bro cant you just call the action?

[obtuse orchid]

yes wait

stop

unitdata doesnt work, and i tried putting "unitData" and "unitState" at the start

state.GameLogicData.TryGetData(type, out unitData);

this is what code uses

the polytopia code

[versed whale]

um

[obtuse orchid]

wait

hmmm

no

[versed whale]

what

[obtuse orchid]

thats not a variable

thats why

[versed whale]

yeah

[obtuse orchid]

nvm

that didnt fix shit

[versed whale]

send entire code

good practice

i mean

method

[tacit pasture]

or the errors that vs code shows

[versed whale]

the entire method

[tacit pasture]

i mean they are pretty descriptive

[versed whale]

i'd appreciate a screenshot pookie

[versed whale]

thx

[tacit pasture]

bruh why is everyone using pookie?

[obtuse orchid]

🏳️‍🌈 ?

[tacit pasture]

idk what that even means

(the word not the flag)

[versed whale]

its kinda flirty, idk

[obtuse orchid]

im telling yall

i need a diff method

cuz build action has nothing to do with units

[versed whale]

no u dont

[obtuse orchid]

🙏

💔

[versed whale]

lemme finish

[obtuse orchid]

its over guys

[versed whale]

no

stfu

lemme finish

so

ok replace type with unit.type

and between UnitState unit... and gameState.GameLogicData... put this: ```cs
if (unit == null) return;

and for unitdata just place "var" between out and unitData

more in depth: what we do here is make sure our input actually exists, and we dont just make it up from nothing, and we also check if unit is null so the game doesnt crash and we dont get that lovely null error! we also put var there so we tell c# that unitData is a variable

[obtuse orchid]

hmmmm

ok so that works

but here i need to get playerstate

im trying to make a variable

but this doesnt work

wait

nvm

i got this

im locked in

https://klipy.com/gifs/geeked-geeked-vs-locked-in

i sure hope this works ngl

[versed whale]

you can remove "var playerState =" and "UnitState unitState ="

also

something better

is to use

[obtuse orchid]

i cant remove unistate

[versed whale]

gameState.ActionStack.Add( new TrainUnitAction(<fill out>) )

[obtuse orchid]

actually i prob can

bat

ok i need to find something else

wait i understand

[obtuse orchid]

no i cant

i need it for everything that comes after

[obtuse orchid]

this doesnt even work dawg

ok i know the issue

the bat swarm isnt working cuz i never used the type (batswarm) from before

[versed whale]

or TrainAction

idk

[obtuse orchid]

u mean like this? lmao

[versed whale]

no cuz

like

unitState is not correct

also

those are not the correct params

[obtuse orchid]

yeah ok but i dont care cuz i got it working

now all i need to do is remove bat, dagger bat, and bat swarm from the list

:D

well not from list

but prevent them from using this

ez

so i have a dilemma

wait nv,

nvm

[versed whale]

polibrary mentioned 🔥

[obtuse orchid]

idk if i have this update tho

cuz i couldnt use transform at all with this

[versed whale]

thats interesting

it should work tho

idk dude im too tired honestly

[obtuse orchid]

so batswarm has a problem

as soon as the unit moves

boom

it transforms back

ok well this is a problem for later

[versed whale]

its not a bug its a feature 🔥

[obtuse orchid]

polytopia feature can die fr

[versed whale]

but you could do some extremely destructive shit and just replace entire method using prefix just to put a single line of code in the middle or idk

[obtuse orchid]

idk

i'll do all that tomorrow

today im playing civ

i got transform working already so we chill (i didnt check if the special one for vampire worked)

[versed whale]

on paper blacklist should work

at least on internal version

[obtuse orchid]

what im thinking is making it blacklist the leech and carry abilities

this way, the bat swarm (it doesnt have leech) will not be transformable

and neither will the bat

only issue is vampire

but im thinking i can just whitelist the vampire

as a specific unit

idk if that works

[versed whale]

oh wait

i think i know the issue

[obtuse orchid]

i prob dont have the update

[versed whale]

no

its my dumbahh

[obtuse orchid]

this is the date i got the last one

5 days ago

[versed whale]

no its not working on paper

im stupid

[obtuse orchid]

rip

[versed whale]

so like it defaults to anything that isnt in the list is false

which is ok from whitelist perspective but not from blacklist

bc i only used whitelist i never realized

[obtuse orchid]

lol

[obtuse orchid]

ok so

i want to hopefully

get some stuff done on this tribe

to get transformation to work i need polib update, right wasd?

[versed whale]

ig

[versed whale]

wait @obtuse orchid i literally forgot to push

the changes

oops

[obtuse orchid]

yeah so i cant use transform at all

rip
