`wl.map`¶

Common functions¶

Some map objects share the same functions and attributes:

Common properties for objects with ware storage

Common properties for objects requiring workers

Common properties for objects garrisoning soldiers

Common properties for objects requiring production inputs

Common properties for objects with ware storage¶

Functions for objects which can store wares. Supported at the time of this writing by Flag and Warehouse.

For objects which consume wares, see: Common properties for objects requiring production inputs.

wl.map.MapObject.get_wares(which)¶

Gets the number of wares that currently reside here.

Parameters: which – Can be either of:

The string "all".
In this case the function will return a table of {ware_name=amount} pairs that gives information about all ware information available for this object.
A ware name.
In this case a single integer is returned. No check is made if this ware makes sense for this location, you can for example ask a lumberjacks_hut for the number of granite he has and he will return 0.
An array of ware names.
In this case a table of {ware_name=amount} pairs is returned where only the requested wares are listed. All other entries are nil.

Returns: integer or table

wl.map.MapObject.set_wares(which[, amount])¶

Sets the wares available in this location. Either takes two arguments, a ware name and an amount to set it to. Or it takes a table of {ware_name=amount} pairs. Wares are created and added to an economy out of thin air.

Parameters

which (string or table) – Name of ware or a table of {ware_name=amount}` pairs.
amount (integer) – This many units will be available after the call.

wl.map.MapObject.valid_wares¶

(RO) A table of {ware_name=count} if storage is somehow constrained in this location. For example for a ProductionSite this is the information what wares and how much can be stored as inputs. For unconstrained storage (like Warehouse) this is nil.

You can use this to quickly fill a building:

if b.valid_wares then b:set_wares(b.valid_wares) end

Common properties for objects requiring production inputs¶

Supported at the time of this writing by ProductionSite and TrainingSite. These functions allows to set workers as inputs. These workers are consumed by the production or trainings programs. To access workers that do the work, see: Common properties for objects requiring workers.

wl.map.MapObject.get_inputs(which)¶

Gets the number of wares and workers that currently reside here for consumption.

Parameters: which – Can be either of:

The string all.
In this case the function will return a table of {ware/worker_name,amount} pairs that gives information about all ware information available for this object.
A ware or worker name.
In this case a single integer is returned. No check is made if this ware/worker makes sense for this location, you can for example ask a lumberjacks_hut for the number of granite he has and he will return 0.
An array of ware and worker names.
In this case a table of {ware/worker_name=amount} pairs is returned where only the requested wares/workers are listed. All other entries are nil.

Returns: integer or table

wl.map.MapObject.set_inputs(which[, amount])¶

Sets the wares/workers available in this location which will be consumed by the production/training programm. Either takes two arguments, a ware/worker name and an amount to set it to. Or it takes a table of {ware/worker_name=amount} pairs. Wares are created and added to an economy out of thin air.

Parameters

which (string or table) – name of ware/worker or {ware/worker_name=amount} table
amount (integer) – this many units will be available after the call

wl.map.MapObject.valid_inputs¶

(RO) A table of {ware/worker_name=amount} which describes how many wares/workers can be stored here for consumption. For example for a ProductionSite this is the information what wares/workers and can be stored in which amount as inputs.

You can use this to quickly fill a building:

if b.valid_inputs then b:set_inputs(b.valid_inputs) end

wl.map.MapObject.set_priority(ware, prio[, cs_setting = false])¶

Sets the priority for the given ware inputqueue.

Parameters

ware (string) – ware name
prio (string) – The new priority. One of "very_low", "low", "normal", "high", or "very_high".
cs_setting (bool) – Only valid for productionsite-constructionsites. If true, refers to the settings to apply after construction.

wl.map.MapObject.get_priority(ware[, cs_setting = false])¶

Returns the priority for the given ware inputqueue. See also set_priority().

Parameters

ware (string) – A ware name.
cs_setting (bool) – Only valid for productionsite-constructionsites. If true, refers to the settings to apply after construction.

Returns

string

wl.map.MapObject.set_desired_fill(item, fill[, cs_setting = false])¶

Sets the desired fill for the given ware or worker inputqueue, as if the player had clicked the increase/decrease buttons.

Parameters

item (string) – Ware or worker name.
fill (integer) – The desired fill.
cs_setting (bool) – Only valid for productionsite-constructionsites. If true, refers to the settings to apply after construction.

wl.map.MapObject.get_desired_fill(item, fill[, cs_setting = false])¶

Returns the desired fill for the given ware or worker inputqueue. See also set_desired_fill().

Parameters

item (string) – Ware or worker name.
cs_setting (bool) – Only valid for productionsite-constructionsites. If true, refers to the settings to apply after construction.

Returns

integer

Common properties for objects requiring workers¶

Supported at the time of this writing by Road, Warehouse and ProductionSite. In the case of ProductionSites, these methods allow access to the workers which do the work instead of workers which are consumed. For workers which are consumed, see: Common properties for objects requiring production inputs.

wl.map.MapObject.get_workers(which)¶: Similar to wl.map.MapObject.get_wares().

wl.map.MapObject.set_workers(which[, amount])¶: Similar to wl.map.MapObject.set_wares().

wl.map.MapObject.valid_workers¶: (RO) Similar to wl.map.MapObject.valid_wares but for workers in this location.

Common properties for objects garrisoning soldiers¶

Supported at the time of this writing by Warehouse, MilitarySite and TrainingSite.

wl.map.MapObject.get_soldiers(descr)¶

Gets information about the soldiers in a location.

Parameters: descr – Can be either of:

A soldier description.
Returns an integer which is the number of soldiers of this kind in this building.

A soldier description is an array that contains the level for health, attack, defense and evade (in this order). A usage example:
building:get_soldiers({0,0,0,0})
would return the number of soldiers of level 0 in this location.

The string "all".

In this case a table of {soldier_descriptions=count} is returned. Note that the following will not work, because Lua indexes tables by identity:

building:set_soldiers({0,0,0,0}, 100)
building:get_soldiers({0,0,0,0}) -- works, returns 100
building:get_soldiers("all")[{0,0,0,0}] -- works not, this is nil

-- Following is a working way to check for a {0,0,0,0} soldier
for descr,count in pairs(building:get_soldiers("all")) do
   if descr[1] == 0 and descr[2] == 0 and
      descr[3] == 0 and descr[4] == 0 then
         print(count)
   end
end

Returns: Number of soldiers that match descr or the table containing all soldiers
Return type: integer or table.

wl.map.MapObject.set_soldiers(which[, amount])¶

Analogous to wl.map.MapObject.set_workers(), but for soldiers. Instead of a name an array is used to define the soldier. See below for an example.

Parameters: which (table or array.) – Either a table of {description=count} pairs or one description. In that case amount has to be specified as well.

Usage example:

building:set_soldiers({0,0,0,0}, 100)

would add 100 level 0 soldiers. While

building:set_soldiers({
  [{0,0,0,0}] = 10,
  [{1,2,3,4}] = 5,
})

would add 10 level 0 soldier and 5 soldiers with hit point level 1, attack level 2, defense level 3 and evade level 4 (as long as this is legal for the players tribe).

wl.map.MapObject.max_soldiers¶: (RO) The maximum number of soldiers that can be inside this building at one time. If it is not constrained, like for Warehouse, this will be nil.

MapObjectDescription¶

class wl.map.MapObjectDescription¶

A static description of a map object, so it can be used without having to access an actual object on the map. This class contains the properties that are common to all objects a tribe has, such as buildings or wares. E.g. the tribal encyclopedia is built upon this class.

To access the static descriptions of this class one can use anything that return description objects. See e.g. some of the attributes of Descriptions or EditorGameBase.

Accessing the descriptions of this class during a game is done via the class MapObject and the attribute MapObject.descr.

descname¶: (RO) The map object’s localized name as string

icon_name¶: (RO) The filename for the menu icon as string

name¶: (RO) The map object’s internal name as string

type_name¶

(RO) The map object’s type as string. Map object types are organized in a hierarchy, where an element that’s lower in the hierarchy has all the properties of the higher-placed types, as well as its own additional properties. Any map object’s description that isn’t linked below can be accessed via its higher types, e.g. a bob is a general map object, and a carrier is a worker as well as a general map object. Some types do not have any static properties besides those defined in their parent type’s description class, and are therefore represented by their parent class. Possible values are:

Bobs: Bobs are map objects that can move around the map. Bob types are:
- bob, the abstract base type for all bobs. For properties see MapObjectDescription.
- critter, animals that aren’t controlled by any tribe. For properties see MapObjectDescription.
- ship, a sea-going vessel belonging to a tribe that can ferry wares or an expedition.
- worker, a worker belonging to a tribe.
- carrier, a specialized worker for carrying items along a road. For properties see WorkerDescription.
- ferry, a specialized carrier for carrying items along a waterway. For properties see WorkerDescription.
- soldier, a specialized worker that will fight for its tribe.
Wares: ware, a ware used by buildings to produce other wares, workers or ships
Immovables: Immovables are map objects that have a fixed position on the map, like buildings or trees. Immovable types are:
- immovable General immovables that can belong to a tribe (e.g. a wheat field) or to the world (e.g. trees or rocks).
- Buildings: Buildings always belong to a tribe. Building types are:
  - building, the base class for all buildings
  - constructionsite, an actual building is being constructed here,
  - dismantlesite, an actual building is being dismantled here,
  - warehouse, a warehouse can store wares and workers. Headquarters and ports are special types of warehouses, but they belong to the same class,
  - militarysite, a building manned by soldiers to expand a tribe’s territory,
  - productionsite, the most common type of building, which can produce wares,
  - trainingsite, a specialized productionsite for improving soldiers.
- Other Immovables: Specialized immovables that aren’t buildings.
  - flag, a flag that can hold wares for transport. For properties see MapObjectDescription.
  - roadbase, the abstract base type for roads and waterways. For properties see MapObjectDescription.
  - road, a road connecting two flags. For properties see MapObjectDescription.
  - waterway, a waterway connecting two flags. For properties see MapObjectDescription.
  - portdock, a ‘parking space’ on water terrain where ships can load/unload wares and workers. A portdock is invisible to the player and one is automatically placed next to each port building. For properties see MapObjectDescription.
Abstract: These types are abstract map objects that are used by the engine and are not visible on the map. They are mentioned here only for completeness; no Lua interface to access such objects or descriptions currently exists.
- battle, holds information about two soldiers in a fight,
- ship_fleet, holds information for managing ships and ports,
- ferry_fleet, holds information for managing ferries and waterways.
- ship_fleet_yard_interface, links a shipyard to a ship fleet.
- ferry_fleet_yard_interface, links a ferry yard to a ferry fleet.
- pinned_note, a textual note pinned to a field by the player.

Example to fetch some information from a tribe’s description:

-- get tribe description
local tribe_descr = wl.Game():get_tribe_description("barbarians")

-- get building descriptions of this tribe
local buildings = tribe_descr.buildings

-- iterate over all building descriptions
for i, building in ipairs(buildings) do
   print(building.type_name, building.name)

   -- filter military sites
   if building.type_name == "militarysite" do
      print(building.max_number_of_soldiers)
   end
end

x, y: (RO) The x/y coordinate of this field

height¶: (RW) The height of this field. The default height is 10, you can increase or decrease this value to build mountains. Note though that if you change this value too much, all surrounding fields will also change their heights because the slope is constrained. If you are changing the height of many terrains at once, use raw_height instead and then call recalculate afterwards.

raw_height¶: (RW) The same as height, but setting this will not trigger a recalculation of the surrounding fields. You can use this field to change the height of many fields on a map quickly, then use recalculate to make sure that everything is in order.

Note: The one currently owning the field is in owner.

region(r1[, r2])¶

Returns an array of all Fields inside the given region. If one argument is given it defines the radius of the region.

A small example:

f:region(1)

will return an array with the following entries (Note: Ordering of the fields inside the array is not guaranteed):

{f, f.rn, f.ln, f.brn, f.bln, f.tln, f.trn}

Returns: The array of the given fields.
