INTRODUCTION
==============

This topic should be of interest to Novice Modders (NMs).

Kindly review:

Introduction
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=535#p8923

AND

Tab-Separated Unicode Text Files
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=535#p8925

Such files are sequentially segmented in strict order (i.e., Sections). Sections are separated by single empty lines. Do not:

a) Change the order of Sections; or
b) Remove empty lines or insert new empty lines; or
c) Use the keyboard to introduce hard tabs, spaces or any other delimiters.

Such unfortunate... edits invariably result in rendering the whole file unreadable by PGF's engine.

Improved Column Labels

PGF's programmer has left "us" with a template applicable to SSI's converted "classic" content. Frankly, from a NM's standpoint, much can be improved in this area. To this effect, the pieces of a way more modder-friendly template will be progressively and methodically introduced as well.

File Sections

Each *.PGSCN file contains ELEVEN (11) Sections. They are:

00. File Type Description
01. Miscellaneous Scenario Data
02. Side-Wide Data
03. Listed Combatants
04. Turn-Specific Prestige Allotments
05. Supply Hexes
06. Objective Hexes
07. Scenario Victory Conditions
08. Campaign Deployment Hexes
09. Purchasable Unit Classes
10. Unit-Specific Data at Scenario's Start

A single, blank line separates any two successive File Sections. No blank line or multiple blank lines crash PGF's engine. Yes, the engine is that "sensitive".

*.PGSCN (File Type Description)
========

Absolute Prerequisite

Tab-Separated Unicode Text Files
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=535#p8925

File Section 00 -- File Type Description

PGF Programmer's choice:

Code: Select all

# PG Forever scenario file
My recommendation follows:

Code: Select all

# PG_FOREVER
# SCENARIO_FILE
From PGF engine's "point of view", this is an empty table which is totally ignored for code processing purposes.

HOWEVER:

NMs are urged to pay close attention to the following key points which are widely and repeatedly applicable across the board.

1) Navigation from column to column should always be done with the keyboard's Arrow keys. Never use the keyboard's Tab and / or Space keys.

2) Columns are separated by Soft Tabs. Soft Tabs are "white space" and, hence, invisible to the human eye. It is tremendously good practice to use underscore (_) characters to indicate the absence of a Soft Tab.

3) All comment lines are preceded by the Octothorpe / Hash (#) character. It makes no difference whatsoever whether the said character is (or not) separated from the comment's text by a Space character.

4) Readability and modding are often greatly enhanced by resorting to multiple, successive comment lines.


File Section 00 sports only ONE (1) column. To this effect, navigation is not an issue at all. Readability has been enhanced by employing TWO (2) successive comment lines.

File Section 01 -- Miscellaneous Scenario Data

PGF Programmer's choice:

Code: Select all

# General scenario data
My recommendation follows:

Code: Select all

# MISCELLANEOUS
# DATA	
# VARIABLE		VALUE

Name			(Text)
Description		(Text)
SET file		(Text)
Year			(Number)

Current Weather		(Number)
Max Unit Strength	(Number)
Max Unit Experience	(Number)
Allies Move First	(Number)
Hidden Scenario 	(Number)
Preliminaries

File Section's 01 readability has been enhanced by employing THREE (3) comment lines. The Section sports TWO (2) columns. The first column on the extreme left (S01-C00) contains a vertical listing of FOURTEEN (14) variables, the names of which are hard-coded into PGF's engine. The column next to it on the right (S01-C01) contains a vertical listing of the values correspondingly assigned to the variables listed in the first column. Note that the FIRST THREE (3) variables assume (alphanumeric) text values. The rest assume (decimal) numerical values. A modder may change the variables' order in the listing at will with absolutely no adverse consequences.

Variables & Their Values

Code: Select all

Name
Alphanumeric data. Also, kindly consult

Plain Text Files: Accommodating Unicode Characters
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=540#p11092

Code: Select all

Description
Alphanumeric data. Also, kindly consult

Plain Text Files: Accommodating Unicode Characters
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=540#p11092

Code: Select all

SET file
Legal file name descriptor.

Code: Select all

Year
The intended values range from 10 to 99 (i.e., 1910 to 1999). Values outside this range yield nonsensical results.

Code: Select all

Turns per Day
The intended values range from 0 to 9. Values outside this range yield nonsensical results. Value 0 has no effect whatsoever. Values 1 to 9 do two things. First, they always start the day at 8:00 hours. Second, they progress through the intra-day timetable in intervals measured in hours. Midnight is not necessarily reached.

Code: Select all

Days per Turn
Value 0 is "interpreted" to be 1. Indirectly, values should not cause the visual calendar progression to go beyond 31 December 1999. A negative value stops the visual calendar progression cold (but not the successive progression of turns).

Code: Select all

Weather Zone
Intended values and their meanings follow:

0 ==> LEAST INCLEMENT
1 ==> SOMEWHAT INCLEMENT
2 ==> CONSIDERABLY INCLEMENT
3 ==> MOST INCLEMENT

Code: Select all

Current Weather
Boolean. Intended values and their meanings follow:

0 ==> STORM FRONT ALREADY PRESENT AT START
1 ==> STORM FRONT ABSENT AT START

Code: Select all

Max Unit Strength
Detailed specifics are covered here:

Restricting Unit Over-Strengthening
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=540#p11445

Code: Select all

Max Unit Experience
Detailed specifics are covered here:

Restricting Unit Experience Gains
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=540#p8966

Code: Select all

Allies Move First
Boolean. Value 0 prompts the "Axis" Side to go first.

The variable's descriptor explicitly mentions by name a historical Alliance encountered in SSI's converted "classic" content.

Code: Select all

Hidden Scenario
This is a... dud. :) PGF's engine just ignores this setting.

Code: Select all

# CAMPAIGN

Section 08 sports just ONE (1) column. All values appearing in Section 08 are integers separated by the colon character (hex coordinate (Map Column:Map Row) specification format).

Core Unit Deployment: Details
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=543#p11528

is a most helpful reference.

Column S08-C00 -- Deployment Hex Coordinates

This is the ONLY Column.

Descriptor integers; (Map Column:Map Row) format.

--- The listing order of records under this Section is immaterial.

--- Any duplicate records encountered are unceremoniously discarded / ignored on the spot.

--- Map Column coordinate value MINUS ONE (-1) negates a hex's ability to accommodate Campaign Unit Deployment.

--- Rendering Core Unit Deployment completely unavailable is accomplished by just entering a single, solitary line sporting some non-numerical text such as "None".

--- An empty Section promptly causes the PGF engine to crash upon attempting to start a scenario.

--- Map hex coordinates lying outside the map "surface" promptly cause the PGF engine to crash upon attempting to start a scenario in Campaign Mode.

File Section 09 -- Purchasable Unit Classes

PGF Programmer's choice:

Code: Select all

# Purchasable classes
My recommendation follows:

Code: Select all

# PURCHASABLE
# UNIT_CLASSES
Section 09 sports TWO (2) columns. All values appearing in Section 09 are integers.

--- In all but one rather exceptional case, the listing order of records under this Section is immaterial.

--- PGF's engine canvasses this Section's records starting at the very bottom, serially moving up towards the top. Any duplicate records encountered in the process are unceremoniously discarded / ignored on the spot.

--- An empty Section promptly causes the PGF engine to crash upon attempting to start a scenario.

Column S09-C00 -- Unit Class Numerical ID

This is the FIRST (1st) Column encountered as one traverses Columns going from left to right.

PGF Programmer's choice:

Unit Classes
viewtopic.php?f=100&t=547#p8995

--- Rendering all Unit Classes unavailable for new unit purchases is accomplished by just entering a single, solitary line sporting some non-numerical text such as "None".

--- Integer values lying outside range [ 0 , 17 ] promptly crash the PGF engine upon attempting to start a scenario !

Column S09-C01 -- Is the Unit Class Purchasable ?

This is the SECOND (2nd) Column encountered as one traverses Columns going from left to right.
