Hacking GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged, checking the EntityType of GUI.GetSelectedEntity(), and call XGUIEng.ShowWidget("Selection_Leader", 1)

Where should i place it?

HELLO?

GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged is a function called by the game itself whenever the interface changes.

"Hacking" now means that you want to do something like this:

OldFunction = OriginalSettlersFunction

function OriginalSettlersFunction(_possibleParameters)
  -- call the "original function"
  OldFunction(_possibleParameters)

  -- place your code here
end

That way you are able to call your own code before the original functions code is called. For example:

Edit: Thanks mcb. I just corrected my mistake.

In this case you have to call the original function before your code, because the original hides Selection_Leader.

OldFunction = OriginalSettlersFunction

function OriginalSettlersFunction(_possibleParameters)
  -- call the "original function"
  OldFunction(_possibleParameters)

  -- place your code here
end

I think i am too stypid. Can u replace it? Im really new in something like that"code".

I haven't tested it yet, but this should work:

function FirstMapAction()
    --[...]
    GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged_Old = GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged --the function "GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged_Old" contains the original function now.
    GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged = GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged_New --whenever the game calls "GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged", the function "GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged_New" will be called instead.
    --[...]
end

function GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged_New() --we define the kew function here
    GameCallback_GUI_SelectionChanged_Old() --firstly, the original function must be called. We only want to modify a few lines, not the whole function.
    local selected = GUI.GetSelectedEntity() --the local variable "selected" gets the value of the ID of the currently selected entity; this ->local<- variable will be deleted at the end of the function automatically.
    --is the selected entity a leader?
    if Logic.IsEntityInCategory(selected, EntityCategories.Leader) == 1 then --yes!
        XGUIEng.ShowWidget("Selection_Leader", 1) --shows the buttons
    else --no!
        XGUIEng.ShowWidget("Selection_Leader", 0) --hide the buttons (e.g. for buildings, serfs etc.)
    end
end

It says its error. I dont have debug script cuz i cant find it so i dunno where is the mistake

Why don't you add this simple " -debugscript" behind the settler shortcut's path? You have made the mistake because my script works perfectly!

I copied and pasted and it says error . And where can I add this?

I added this -debugscript but nothing showed up. Nothing changed.

Right-click at the Settlers-schortcut at your desktop and click Properties. In the first text field you append " -debugscript" (without " but with the space).

Here is the screenshot polaster64 sent me via PM:

This path seems to be ok so I have totally no idea why it doesn't return an error.

Or has this problem been solved already? Then you probably didn't copied the function correctly. Please post your script in this case.

This seems to be the original game. You should add this at the shortcut for the addon you using for your maps.

Muss der Ziel Pfad normalerweise nicht eher so aussehen:
Blue Byte\DIE SIEDLER - Das Erbe der Könige - Gold Edition\extra2\bin\settlershok.exe
Oder spielt das keine Rolle?

I did it. And still nothing..

Look here http://screenshooter.net/100248758/ovhefdo i did it like that and now notihng happens.

It is still the basic game. You have to add this to the shortcuts of the addons' too!

I also did. Nothing still happens.

Try to add some Code causing an error to test if its work. Maybe this:

assert(false, "If you see this as Dialog, everything works;)")

assert(false, "If you see this as Dialog, everything works;)")

http://screenshooter.net/100248758/ycxhidm I did something like that, still errsyntax.

You should get a Message in a Dialog Box saying what Syntax-Error you have, when you start the map.
Text is something like this:
Error: LUA_ERRSYNTAX:

I fucking copied all Zedeg's script even with that FMA and replaced it to script. It says LUA_ERRSYNTAX. There must be a mistake. And can script really begin from "--" ?

A line starting with -- is a comment. You should really learn some Lua...
