Oooh.. I need an egg object? Thanks Sy! You should make a Tutorial with things like "How to create a new weapon", "How to add a new Unit" and stuff like that. XP

[Sy]

Ok, here is what you need to do and I'll use my Nazgul code as an example, I'll try and explain it as best I can.

Start off with an upgrade definition, this goes in upgrade.ini, the upgrade is used to trigger the spawning of the new object.

Upgrade Upgrade_SauronNazguls
Type = OBJECT
End

Next (SpecialPower.INI), we define the superweapon, notice the reuse of the SPECIAL_SPAWN_OATHBREAKERS enum, really doesn't matter. The superweapon tells the engine what to do when the superweapon is created and how long between instances of it.

SpecialPower SuperweaponSummonNazgul
Enum = SPECIAL_SPAWN_OATHBREAKERS
ReloadTime = 360000 ; in milliseconds
InitiateAtLocationSound = NazgulScreech
RadiusCursorRadius = 100.0
PublicTimer = No
End

Now we define two OCL's (ObjectCreationList.INI), the first is a `egg' object which spawns or more appropriately hatches the actual object(s) what we want to summon.

ObjectCreationList OCL_NazgulEggSmall
CreateObject
ObjectNames = NazgulEggSmall
UseJustBuiltFlag = Yes
Count = 1
Disposition = LIKE_EXISTING
IgnoreCommandPointLimit = Yes
End
End

ObjectCreationList SUPERWEAPON_SpawnNazgul
CreateObject
ObjectNames = MordorFellBeast_Summoned
Count = 1
FadeIn = Yes
FadeTime = 2000
IgnoreCommandPointLimit = Yes
Disposition = LIKE_EXISTING
Offset = X:15 Y:15 Z:15
End
CreateObject
ObjectNames = MordorFellBeast_Summoned
Count = 1
FadeIn = Yes
FadeTime = 2000
IgnoreCommandPointLimit = Yes
Disposition = LIKE_EXISTING
Offset = X:-15 Y:15 Z:0
End
End

Now we can define the buttons that will action the use request to summon the Nazguls. (CommandButton.INI)

CommandButton Command_SummonNazgul
Command = SPECIAL_POWER
SpecialPower = SuperweaponSummonNazgul
TextLabel = CONTROLBAR:SwoopAttack
ButtonImage = SBEvil_Plus1Nazgul
Options = NEED_TARGET_POS CONTEXTMODE_COMMAND
RadiusCursorType = SUMMON_OATH_BREAKERS
CursorName = Bombard
InvalidCursorName = GenericInvalid
ButtonBorderType = ACTION
DescriptLabel = CONTROLBAR:TooltipSwoopAttack
InPalantir = Yes
End

Add the button to the command set used by the object that will summon the nazguls. (CommandSet.INI) Ignore SummonBalrog, I did this in exactly the same way.

CommandSet SauronCommandSet
1 = Command_Guard
2 = Command_SummonNazgul
3 = Command_SummonBalrog
13 = Command_AttackMove
14 = Command_Stop
15 = Command_Guard
End

Now add the following code to the object that will summon the nazguls, in my case Sauron. This pulls it all together, it should be reasonably obvious how this works.

Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_SauronNazgulEnabler
SpecialPowerTemplate = SuperweaponSummonNazgul
TriggeredBy = Upgrade_SauronNazguls
End

Behavior = OCLSpecialPower ModuleTag_OCLSpecialPower1
SpecialPowerTemplate = SuperweaponSummonNazgul
OCL = OCL_NazgulEggSmall
CreateLocation = CREATE_AT_LOCATION
StartsPaused = Yes
End

Finally, we need to actually award the upgrade to the object, this is done with experience. So edit ExperienceLevels.INI and add this:

ExperienceLevel SauronLevel6
TargetNames = MySauron
RequiredExperience = ARAGORN_LVL6_EXP_NEEDED
ExperienceAward = ARAGORN_LVL6_EXP_AWARD
LevelUpFx = FX:GandalfLevelUp1FX
Rank = 6
Upgrades = Upgrade_SauronNazguls
AttributeModifiers = HeroLevelUpDamage9
SelectionDecal
Texture = Decal_hero_good
Style = SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
OpacityMin = 50%
OpacityMax = 100%
MinRadius = 40
MaxRadius = 200
MaxSelectedUnits = 40
End
End

MySauron is the name I gave to my version of the Sauron object in my mod. He gets this upgrade at level 6.

You will also need to add three objects, they must be in the correct order, for simplicility I have posted them here....I put these in MYSAURON.INI along with the MySauron object.

W00T!

Thanks Sy! You should make a website with tutorials on these things. Now to add custom graphics.. *downloads MIP Map plugin for Photoshop* *makes a new image and MIP Maps it* *adds it to the file with all the images and the minor spider's art parameters* *uses TibEd 2 and runs the mod launcher* *image shows up as a purple square*

GAH! >_>

[DeeZire]

Sy please use the 'code' BB tags, it get a little frustrating to scroll through messages that only contain reams of code

[Sy]

Np, will do!

[Twin Matrix]

Is it also possible to make him summon more than one? When I change Count nothing happens.


TM

[Sy]

In my example, he spawns 2 nazgul. You should modify the SUPERWEAPON OCL not the Egg OCL.

There is a seperate CreateObject block for each Nazgul spawned, the count is not relevant.

[Twin Matrix]

So I just copy and paste the hatched object to create more of em? Sweet.
