Scenario Design

Post by IainMcNeil »

The Scenario Design forum is a forum dedicated to mission design and ideas. It's easy to begin building missions using the in-game editor, and we hope everyone will give it a try.

If you have any questions, this is the place to put them to the team. Or share ideas and tips on how to create great custom missions, and enjoy the admiration of your peers!

Feel free to use this forum to share your custom maps with other users. You can't host the files here as the forum software does not allow it but you can host them elsewhere and link to them here.

Have fun making maps and campaigns!

If the updated editor tutorial is ready, it would make a helpful sticky for this section.

You've to copy the "ScenarioEditor.exe" to your Panzer Corps main folder and replace the older one.

Hi - great game!
A few questions about the editor:
Roads don't seem to work on mountains, etc and bridges won't work on sea or am I doing something wrong?
I'm thinking the terrain is read by the game rather than the overlays?
Is there a max number of slots/units allowed?
What are aux slots?
Best

Hi,

the hexes you edit in the editor under "terrain" are determining the specific terrain in-game. Usually the overlays match that, so that for example "hill" terrain shows hill graphics. This is also the standard when you hit "generate tiles" in the editor, but via "tiles overlays" this can be changed manually so that a certain terrain displays as something else.

Also, roads, railroads and rivers are set separately under "terrain features" in the editor. Here it works similarly - you set road connection for certain tiles under "terrain features", but the graphics for display in-game are separately under "tiles roads" "tiles rivers" etc. These are generated automatically too, but can be changed manually as well.

Aux slots sets how many non-core (so auxilary) units you could buy (additionally to those present on-map at the beginning) in a certain scenario. Unlike you core units those aux units cannot be taken over to the next scenario.

Hope that helps. I don't know about max units etc.

Hi Brebro - thanks for that.
So in multiplayer maps Aux slots are redundant?

Is there a way of copying scripts from one map to another?

Tell me, please: if the parameters of the script in the victory put the Axis flags in All map More than 20.
The 20 flags will be just the key to the gold trim or even all flags on the map?

Could you please rephrase your question ? Your meaning is unclear (at least to me). :shock:

I write with the help of an translator.
In the Script Editor: Edit-Options-scenario victory conditions-conditions scenario
Opt as a condition of winning - Number of Axis flags in All Map More than 20.
What is meant by these 20 flags? All the flags on the map or just the key marked with yellow flags?

All map = all flags on the Map (if 20 then 20, if 100 then 100, etc.)
Primary objectives = Victory Flags
Secondary objectives = None Victory Flags
