hey...

i need to close some slots of the civilian buildings in one of my missions.
there shall be only one place for infantry, can anyone tell me how to do this ?

It's actually pretty easy.

Create or edit an existing map.ini and add the following lines for each house that you want without or reduced MaxGarrison value:

Object [ObjectName]
 ReplaceModule ModuleTag_XX
  Behavior = GarrisonContain ModuleTag_XX_[AlternativeName]
    ContainMax          = 1
    ;ContainMax          = 10 ;standard value
    EnterSound          = GarrisonEnter
    ExitSound           = GarrisonExit
  End
 End
End

An example:

Object AsianTrainStation
 ReplaceModule ModuleTag_03
  Behavior = GarrisonContain ModuleTag_03Alt
    ContainMax          = 1
    ;ContainMax          = 10 ;standard value
    EnterSound          = GarrisonEnter
    ExitSound           = GarrisonExit
  End
 End
End

Wouldn't you need to edit the building's CommandSet to take off all those extra buttons for occupying units as well?

[NukeWinter]

afaik ,if you want it to look good, yes

[2312222]

Well if you check civilian buildings that are using the GarrisonContain module you won't find a CommandSet line.

I think the game either automatically displays 10 exit command buttons whenever a GarrisonContain module is present or it dynamically changes the amount of buttons depending on the count of slots set in the GarrisonContain module.

[CodeCat]

It hides the buttons for the slots that are missing. So you don't need to edit the CommandSet AFAIK.

Thanks CodeCat, that's what I thought. I wonder whether EA really wanted this to happen, or it's just a useful side-effect

[Dibelius]

i guess it's a useful side-effect which EA really wanted to happen

[SmokeyDaBear]

ok i tried to hold it in, but i just cant n e more...what does AFAIK mean?...it sounds familiar

[NukeWinter]

afaik=as far as i know
and that is an interesting side effect, wonder if it works for anything else
