Hi all. I'm trying some tests with interactions, but failing, so let this thread be Interactions Study Class.

here's what I tried - an interaction that transforms all dogs into cats. Should work at any biome - this part copypasted from generated resurrection interaction.

Code: [Select]

[INTERACTION:TEST_REGION_INTERACTION]
[I_SOURCE:REGION]
[IS_REGION:ANY]
[IS_FREQUENCY:100]
[I_TARGET:dog_m:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_REGION]
[IT_AFFECTED_CREATURE:DOG:MALE]
[I_TARGET:dog_f:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_REGION]
[IT_AFFECTED_CREATURE:DOG:FEMALE]
[I_EFFECT:ADD_SYNDROME]
[IE_TARGET:dog_m]
[IE_IMMEDIATE]
[SYNDROME]
[CE_BODY_TRANSFORMATION:START:0]
[CE:CREATURE:CAT:MALE]
[I_EFFECT:ADD_SYNDROME]
[IE_TARGET:dog_f]
[IE_IMMEDIATE]
[SYNDROME]
[CE_BODY_TRANSFORMATION:START:0]
[CE:CREATURE:CAT:MALE]
What have I screwed here?

[Quietust]

In what way is it not working?

[peregarrett]

In literal way. I took some dogs at embark and they didn't turn into cats.
Don't know how to debug it.
I thought it should work as undeads rising in evil biomes.

Hey terribly sorry to piggy back on your thread, but I was messing around with interactions and can't seem to get mine working either

It's meant to turn anything attacked by the "monster" into a sub caste of this monster called the converted, it's based of the vampire interaction and I can't get it to work I also tried using the werebeast as a template and wrote the whole thing up again and it still wont work. What's wrong with it?? (I of course, probrably just don't understand enough about this, and am making some stupid mistake) Help anyone?

You do know that your interaction is going to turn female dogs into male cats, right? >_>

Try changing the target identifiers to A and B--I haven't really tried anything other than those, so I'm not sure if they'll work.

Fixed male/female bug, changed IDs to A, B - still nothing. I guess I'm missing something here...

EDIT. Okay, I just give up this to someone who's more experienced. Screw you, interactions!

Interactions that target creatures have [IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE] rather than[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_REGION].
Second, looks like regional interactions work with [IE_INTERMITTENT:WEEKLY] only, [IE_IMMEDIATE] isn't supported.
Finally, if else fails, my test regional interaction had [IE_ARENA_NAME:].

Also make sure "[OBJECT:INTERACTION]" is at the top of the file

Greatly thanks!
IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE worked, along with IE_INTERMITTENT:WEEKLY. All stray animals, wild animals and embark team is slowly transformed into cats, one by one.
Strange, but when all of citizens transformed into animals, game doesn't stop

maybe I added too much IS_REGION's, but I wanted to make that sure.

Btw, is there any way to customize announcement that is printed when syndrome is applied? Found only CE_DISPLAY_NAME, that change name of creature.

[Putnam]

Nope.
