HUNT_BUILDINGS macro

#1 Post by Sloth »

@Geoff: The change to the HUNT_BUILDINGS macro has a bad side effect. Most monsters have the macros [[HUNT_BUILDINGS]] and then [[MONSTER_MOVE_ALWAYS]]. The new HUNT_BUILDINGS macro will always trigger the MONSTER_FLEET_MOVE_STACK stackinggroup even without any destination, which will prevent MONSTER_MOVE_ALWAYS to ever kick in.

For reference:

Code: Select all

HUNT_BUILDINGS
'''EffectsGroup
            scope = Object id = Source.FleetID
            activation = Not OwnedBy AnyEmpire
            stackinggroup = "MONSTER_FLEET_MOVE_STACK"
            effects = SetDestination destination = And [
                System
                Contains And [
                    Building
                    OwnedBy AnyEmpire
                    Stealth high = Source.Detection
                    WithinDistance Source.Detection Source
                ]
            ]

Thanks for the tip. I've restored the scope condition.

Is there a workaround that can still provide the same results or am I missing something (does it still work?)
