A few more things please

from Elemental Forums

1. Is there a way to limit the number of a particular strategic summon[say a dragon] to 1?

 

2. Is there a way to summon the same creature in tactical battle multiple times?

It just currently says "This unit has already used this spell" or something like that.

 

3. Is there a way to change hair color of a sovereign with a trait?

 

4. Is there a way to extend the hotbar to fill the entire width of the screen?

 

5. Is there a way to make sure a particular resource [say mana, or something else] doesn't exceed 100?

Since there will only be a few possible sources of that resource, perhaps it would be possible to use abilities to detect current resource? I don't know :/

 

Thanks in advance.

You mean forever, even if it dies?
Create a hidden "New Resource". Give 1 "New Resource" to all factions (Using an Ability or an Event). Use that resource as a SpellResourceCost.
Alternatively, use CasterMustBeSov tag, have the spell summon the creature, but also have it UnlockUnitAbility ABC. Use RestrictedAbilityBonusOption ABC as a spell Prereq. Result is your Sovereign can cast the spell once, but once you've done so, the spell is removed from the Spellbook.
Could also try the Tireless March set up, but generally the spell is available again if you dispel it

 

Sorry, no. I meant only 1 at a time.

 

I remember the vanilla had something similar, but no matter what I tried, it always allowed me to keep summoning it.

 

 

 

Change <CanStack>0</CanStack> to <CanStack>1</CanStack>
Doable with an item (Style + Color), see: Commander's Wig (WigHelmet_Commanders, Black Market Bazaar MOD).

 


Thanks!

 

 

 

Tactical Hotbar? Probably possible if you create a new .dxpack using DesktopX from Stardock

 

 

 


Eeesh, that's too much for me XP

 

Thanks very much anyways!

Remove all the references in the quote tags. For example (Without the dots):

[.quote]text[./quote]

Tyvm, so would <canstack>0</canstack> work to limit the dragon summons in the strategic map to 1 at a time?

not 1 at a time per caster, since the game is already set up like this)

How about using a ResourceType + Improvement? (e.g. Wild_Dragons + Camp_FellDragon). You can unlock the resource (CreateResourceHoard) through an Event, a GoodieHut, an Improvement, a Spell, etc

 

D'oh, 1 at a time per caster :/

 

Double D'oh, I just found the  canstack tag on almost every spell but not mine. 

 

Sorry for wasting your time :(

 

Thanks again though!
