new production unit - barracks

wc_sumpton

Let's change the infantry for the Chinese:

<!-- Always True condition first -->
<attachment name="conditionAttachmentAlwaysTrue" attachTo="Chinese" javaClass="games.strategy.triplea.attachments.RulesAttachment" type="player">
   <option name="switch" value="true"/>
</attachment>

<!-- Now the triggers -->
<!-- Reset requiresUnits to be empty -->
<attachment name="triggerAttachmentResetInfantry" attachTo="Chinese" javaClass="games.strategy.triplea.attachments.RulesAttachment" type="player">
   <option name="conditons" value="conditionAttachmentAlwaysTrue"/>
   <option name="unitType" value="infantry"/>
   <option name="unitAttachmentName" value="UnitAttachment" count="unitAttachment"/>
   <option name="unitProperty" value="requiresUnits" count="-reset-"/>
   <option name="when" value="before:chinesePlace"/>
</attachment>

<!-- Add values to requiresUnits -->
<attachment name="triggerAttachmentSetInfantry" attachTo="Chinese" javaClass="games.strategy.triplea.attachments.RulesAttachment" type="player">
   <option name="conditons" value="conditionAttachmentAlwaysTrue"/>
   <option name="unitType" value="infantry"/>
   <option name="unitAttachmentName" value="UnitAttachment" count="unitAttachment"/>
   <option name="unitProperty" value="requiresUnits" count="-reset-barracks"/>
   <option name="unitProperty" value="requiresUnits" count="factory"/>
   <option name="unitProperty" value="requiresUnits" count="SmallFactory"/>
   <option name="when" value="after:chinesePlace"/>
</attachment>

The above is untested but should work.

Cheers...

@Numetalfan

To use the Chinese_infantry for China, because it has 'purchaseNoPUs', you need to add into the rules for China:

			<!-- Chinese Rules -->
<attachment name="rulesAttachment" attachTo="Chinese" javaClass="games.strategy.triplea.attachments.RulesAttachment" type="player">
   <option name="movementRestrictionTerritories" value="Chinghai:Ningxia:Sikang:Yunnan:Hupeh:Fukien:Suiyuan:Manchuria:Kiangsu:Kwangtung:Xinjiang"/>
   <option name="movementRestrictionType" value="allowed"/>
   <option name="productionPerXTerritories" value="2:Chinese_infantry"/> <!-- Add 'Chinese_infantry' here -->
   <option name="placementAnyTerritory" value="true"/>
   <option name="placementCapturedTerritory" value="true"/>
   <option name="placementPerTerritory" value="3"/>
</attachment>

That's it.

Cheers...

perfect, it worked!
yet, I could place 4 Inf in a territory, which means

got disabled

WW2v4-1941.xml

Numetalfan

the barracks can now - I don't know why- only be build in a country already containing a factory.

can you take a look why. thx

@Numetalfan yea I can't get your game to load. Can you upload the whole thing with sendspace or something similar ? I can't really test anything

ahh...looks as if you are making progress

tell me, if it's downloadable

@Numetalfan yea I was able to DL it but when I added it to triplea I get a polygon error. Anyway, I just redid the Military Base on a mod I was working on and made it Infantry only, but I'm not sure if it'll work with what you want.

Factories and Bases can't be built in the same TTy but in this mod they can. So that screws up how I was gonna do it. It looks as if you and wc made some progress though.

What's the current status ? Everything ok except for Barracks building 4 ? If still having trouble, I'd look at Cernel's 270 BC again. I'm gonna take a look myself

ahh...yea that makes things a bit different Guess I need to pay more attention before commenting.

I'm not sure how you can get China to buy and place a barracks. It might be easier to just give China a regular purchase phase. Idk

@belee

Chinese are no longer a problem, it works as usual, the program counts their countries and they get their infantry units.

the thing that does not work ist to place the barracks production unit in a country of my choice.
tripleA forces me to build the newly bought barracks in a country, where a factory already exist.

And this is very strange, because the other production units, the small factory and the shipyard, they can be build in any country.

But I will test what happens, if I reduce the maxFactory per territory back to 1.
I will report.

Numetalfan

problem solved!

it was the maxFactory per territory set to 1.

everything works now

@Numetalfan Sweet !
