tjhkkr -> [ANSWERED] Technique to test scripts using Unit Damaged/Unit Destroyed trigger. (12/1/2017 4:12:44 AM)
Hello, I am trying to work through a lua script that is triggered by the Unit Damaged/Unit Destroyed triggers. Has anyone found a good way to test this? I am trying to set up the script that if two bridges are blown up, it shuts down the mission; I have the code, I simply need to test it. I do not know how I can do that from the LUA screen code tester. Anyone in the community have any ideas?

While game is running, open the Lua console, and run something like: ScenEdit_SetUnitDamage({side='SideA', unitname='Ship1', dp=xxx}) where xxx is the damage points The event should trigger.

Hi,tjhkkr

You can use the 'Message' action to test your code like this:

ScenEdit_SetEvent('destroy_event',{mode = 'add'})
ScenEdit_SetAction({mode = 'add', type = 'Message', name = 'destroy_action', SideId = 'LuaSideA', Text = 'Destroied'})
ScenEdit_SetTrigger({mode = 'add', name = 'destroy_trigger', type = 'UnitDestroyed', targetfilter = {TargetSide = 'LuaSideB',TargetType = '2'}})

ScenEdit_SetEventAction('destroy_event', {mode = 'add', name = 'destroy_action'})
ScenEdit_SetEventTrigger('destroy_event', {mode = 'add', name = 'destroy_trigger'})

hope it can help you.
