Section Guide Character Limit

8,000 characters. (tags seem to extend it but, let's assume this for now.)

Note: New Lines uses +2 characters.

(this is just a reference for me so I know the character limit.)

Guide Update Note

While it's safe to assume most of the information in this guide is/was factual at some point in time, it does not guarantee that the information is entirely accurate now. (Primarily due to game updates/changes.) If you find information that is incorrect/changed, please let me know so I can fix/update the sections in question. (assuming I am available.)

Whenever the game is updated, I try to update this guide if/when there are any notable changes. If any developers wish to take this guide over, feel free to ask me and I can give you permission to edit this guide.

Update: While the Original Guides Intent was to help out Beginners, I have been slowly adding more and more useful information... So, I adjusted the Guides Name slightly with "and More!". Probably too much but, whatever... I love info dumps and to help people out whenever I can.

What's New? (Guide Part 1)

If you are coming from Age of Empires 2 TC, HD, or my Old Guide, you should know that there has been a few changes since then. I will list some general changes to Triggers/Editor below.

• Copy Function
  
  
  • Allows you to Copy/Paste a new Trigger from an existing Trigger. (Similar to Trigger Studios function.)
  
  
• New Trigger Settings
  
  
  • A few new Options for Triggers. (Nothing major though.)
  
  
• Comparison
  
  
  • Let's you check Conditions with Comparable Values. Examples: Equal To, Less Than, More Than, Less Than Equal To, and More Than Equal To.
  
  
• Operation
  
  
  • Let's you use Operations to/for the Values. Examples: Set, Add, Subtract, Multiply, and Divide. Just don't divide by 0 or the game will crash. :P
  
  
• Variables
  
  
  • Let's you define your own variables that you can use/edit as needed.
  
  
• Condition Separator (Or)
  
  
  • Let's you use the 'or' condition.
  
  
• .XS
  
  
  • Let's you code your own functions for scenario triggers.
  
  
• And many more new Conditions/Effects
  
  
  • There is so many more Effects and a few new Conditions. I will go over them in a later section. Although, I will say that there is a ton more you can edit than before.

What are they? (Guide Part 2)

Triggers are scripted events within the scenario to be activated in specific conditions. There are many possible options to choose from. (Which will later be discussed in a different section.) Here are a few examples.

• Spawn Objects on the map.
  
  
• Task Objects on the map.
  
  
• Modify Objects on the map.
  
  
• Show Objectives/Text in the Scenario.
  
  
• Modify In-Game Things. (Such as Resources, Diplomacy, Etc.)
  
  
• And many more.

Where are they? (Guide Part 3)

• First, start the game up and click: "Single Player" (Highlighted in Blue.)

• Next, click the button that says: "Editors" (Highlighted in Blue.)

• Now, click the button that says: "Create Scenario" (Highlighted in Blue.)
  
• Note: You could also click: "Load Scenario" but, I will assume you have none for now.

• Finally, click the button that says: "Triggers" (Highlighted in Blue.)

This is where the Triggers are located in game. Interested? Keep reading to find out more.

Triggers (Guide Part 4)

Now let's take a look at the Triggers Menu. (I have highlighted sections in color to explain the different sections.)

• Orange Area: (First Section/Top Middle-Left)
  
  
  • This is the Trigger List. All of the Scenarios created Triggers are here.
  
  
• Yellow Area: (Second Section/Middle-Left)
  
  
  • This is the List of Conditions/Effects for that specific Trigger. Clicking on a Trigger in the First Section will show all Conditions/Effects within that Trigger.
  
  
• Green Area: (Third Section/Bottom)
  
  
  • This is the Editing Area for Triggers/Conditions/Effects. Clicking on any Conditions/Effects will show all available Options/Settings for it in this Area. Clicking on any Trigger will show all available Options/Settings for it in this Area as well.
  
  
• Blue Areas: (Fourth Sections/Inside First/Second Sections)
  
  
  • The First Set of Buttons allows you to Create, Delete, Copy, or View Triggers. (Copy is a new Function.) When Deleting, Copying, or Viewing, you need to have a Trigger selected in the list for it to work properly. (Just left click on it. I will discuss this section in a bit.)
  
  
  • The Second Set of Buttons allows you to Add, Copy, or Delete Conditions/Effects. (Copy is a new Function.) When Copying or Deleting, you need to have the Condition/Effect selected in the list for it to work properly. (Just left click on it. I will discuss this section in a bit.)

If you are confused on the Structure, here is some Example Trees.

Example 1:

• + List of Triggers
  
  • - Specific Trigger
    
    • - Conditions/Effects within Specific Trigger

Example 2:

• Trigger 0
  
  • Effect 0
• Trigger 1
  
  • Condition 0
    
  • Effect 0
• Trigger 2
  
  • Condition 0
    
  • Condition 1
    
  • Condition 2
    
  • Effect 0
    
  • Effect 1
    
  • Effect 2

There is a new condition for 'or'. Here is an example:

Example 3:

• Condition 0
  
• Condition 1
  
• Condition 2 (OR)
  
• Condition 3
  
• Condition 4
  
• Condition 5
  
• Effect 0
  
• Effect 1
  
• Effect 2

This comes out to be:

Condition 0 and 1 or Condition 3, 4, and 5 than Effects.
if(Condition 0 and 1) or (Condition 3, 4, and 5) than (Effects)

Triggers (Guide Part 5)

Now that you know the general layout, let's move on to the second part. The Trigger.


Clicking on a Trigger (Highlighted in Yellow.) will show the Trigger Settings/Options. (Highlighted in Blue.) You can set all the options/settings as needed. Here is what all the things do.

• Trigger Name (String)
  
  
  • Name the Trigger to whatever you want so you remember what it is/does.
  
  
• Trigger Starting State (Boolean)
  
  
  • If On, it will trigger as soon as all Conditions are met. (If any. Otherwise, it will trigger at the start of the Game or when activated.) If Off, it will never trigger unless activated first. (Note: See Effects Activate/Deactivate Trigger.)
  
  
• Trigger Looping (Boolean)
  
  
  • If On, this Trigger will trigger every 1 second In-Game Time as soon as all Conditions are met. If Off, it will only run one time once all conditions are met.
  
  
• Trigger Description (String)
  
  
  • This is to be used as either an actual description or an objective. Explain what it does for You/Others or what You need to do in the Scenario. If you want it to be shown in Objectives, you need to enable it in Display as Objective.
    Max: 4095 Characters.
  
  
• Display as Objective (Boolean)
  
  
  • If Yes, it will be shown in objectives until all conditions have been met. (Then it will be crossed out.) If No, it will not be shown at all.
  
  
• String Table ID [1] (Integer)
  
  
  • Set the String ID Number for Trigger Description. (This has to do with Translations per Language.) I might come back to this. For now, I will leave it as is.
  
  
• Short Description (String)
  
  
  • Similar to Trigger Description but, it will be shown on Screen instead on the right side. This is intended more for Objectives during Gameplay. If you want it to be shown, you need to enable it in Display on Screen.
    Max: 240 Characters. (18 lines/objectives.)
  
  
• Display on Screen (Boolean)
  
  
  • If Yes, it will be shown in a Checklist on the right of the Screen until all Conditions have been met. (Then it will be Checked Off.). If No, it will not be shown at all.
  
  
• String Table ID [2] (Integer)
  
  
  • Set the String ID Number for Short Description. (This has to do with Translations per Language.) I might come back to this. For now, I will leave it as is.
  
  
• Make Header (Boolean)
  
  
  • If Enabled, makes the Objective a Header Only. (It will not be scratched out even when complete.)
  
  
• Description Order (Integer)
  
  
  • Sets the Objective in Order by a number. The higher the number, the higher priority the Objective will be placed in Objectives.
  
  
• Mute Objectives (Boolean)
  
  
  • If Enabled, no sound will play once the Conditions are met for the Objective. If Disabled, it will play as normal.

Triggers (Guide Part 6)

Important Update: With the July PUP Patch coming up, there is a new On/Off Option to run Triggers in sort order. You can turn it on/off for legacy control but, I just want to mention this. So, if you have it on, it runs in sort order. If off, it runs in creation order. (I will leave this section here since it's still technically relevant.)

Something I forgot to mention that T-West reminded me of on forums... There is a... semi-hidden ID on triggers that you need to know about. (It's important.) Whenever you 'create' or 'copy' a trigger, an ID is applied/used to this trigger. It starts at 0 and goes up by 1 each time. You will noticed this when you create the trigger for the first time. It will be named: "Trigger <#>" That will be the ID of the trigger. Why is this important? Let me explain...

Depending on the creation ID of the trigger, will depend on the 'order' the triggers is/are ran/checked.

For example: 'Trigger 0', 'Trigger 1', and Trigger 2'.

Q: Which Trigger runs first?
A: 0 does.

You might be thinking, wait...

Q: What if I move the Trigger up before that other Trigger? (Reorder them.) Won't that work?
A: No.

or...

Q: What if I rename it to 'Trigger <#>'?
A: No.

It will not run in the order of the trigger list. It relies directly on the ID's. No matter how you move the triggers around in the list or try to rename the triggers, the ID's will always dictate the order of operations.

Q: Why is this important?
A: Well, if multiple triggers rely on each other, and one happens 'before' or 'after' the intended order, it will likely break your/the scenario. Please remember this is you ever reorder your triggers.

Note: There is technically a way to do this but, that would require trigger studios... Which is not currently compatible with DE... Perhaps, later it will be?

Note: This also applies to Conditions/Effects too.

Conditions (Guide Part 7)

Now we come to the longest sections. Conditions/Effects. Take your time with these section as needed. Let's begin.


Once you select a Trigger, you have access to that Triggers Conditions/Effects. (Highlighted in Yellow.) If you made/make a new Condition/Effect, you can change the Conditions/Effects List. (Depending on which you choose. Both will be a Dropdown Box. Highlighted in Green.) Once you select a Condition/Effect, all available options/settings will be available for you to alter/edit as needed. (Highlighted in Blue.) Many different options/settings can be changed/set depending on the Condition/Effect. However, a lot of them are common with each other. Such as Player, Area, Object, and Value.

Here is the format I intend to use:

Name
Description
Arguments/Options/Settings *

Miscellaneous A (Guide Part 12)

Anything worth mentioning will go here that did not apply to the other sections. (Although, are still important to know.)

• Valid/Invalid Trigger/Conditions/Effects
  
  
  • You may have noticed a few of the Triggers/Conditions/Effects Font Colors are either Red or Green. Red means you have forgot to set some options/settings/values and may not work properly. Green means you have the minimal options/settings/values for it to work properly. (Sometimes not all options/settings/values are required. It varies per Condition/Effect.) Make sure there are little/no Red Triggers/Conditions/Effects as possible. (Technically, Invalids are allowed. However, it's best to avoid them when possible.)
  
  
• Conditions are Always "AND"
  
  
  • Conditions are always assumed to be 'AND'. There is no 'OR' sadly. The only way to use 'OR' is to have separate triggers with those specific conditions as well. Once all Conditions are True, the Effects will be be executed/ran. Here are some examples.
  
  
  • Condition 0
    
  • Condition 1
    
  • Condition 2
    
  • Effect 0
  
  
  • Condition 0 AND Condition 1 AND Condition 2 THEN Effect 0
  
  UPDATE: There is a new condition for 'and'. (You don't have to use this but, it may help beginners.)
  
  
  • Condition 0
    
  • Condition 1 (AND)
    
  • Condition 2
    
  • Effect 0
  
  
  • Condition 0 AND Condition 2 THEN Effect 0
    
  • if(Condition 0 and 2) than (Effects)
  
  UPDATE: There is a new condition for 'or'. Here is an example:
  
  Example 3:
  
  • Condition 0
    
  • Condition 1
    
  • Condition 2 (OR)
    
  • Condition 3
    
  • Condition 4
    
  • Condition 5
    
  • Effect 0
    
  • Effect 1
    
  • Effect 2
  
  This comes out to be:
  
  Condition 0 and 1 or Condition 3, 4, and 5 than Effects.
  if(Condition 0 and 1) or (Condition 3, 4, and 5) than (Effects)
  
  
• Inverse Condition
  
  
  • This is equivalent to 'NOT'. Basically, the Opposite Result you expect for your Condition. Here are some examples.
  
  
  • Condition 0
    
  • Condition 1 (NOT)
    
  • Condition 2
    
  • Effect 0
  
  
  • Condition 0 AND NOT Condition 1 AND Condition 2 THEN Effect 0
  
  
• 2D/3D Sounds
  
  
  • Anything sound related, see this Guide:
    https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1915891079
  
  
• Editor Unit Limit
  
  
  • Important Note: I found out that the maximum units is 32768. (4096 per player. Not including gaia?) Any more and the game will crash. Be careful not to go over this limit.
  
  
• Timer Disable/Enable Issue
  
  
  Important Note: So it turns out if you disable/enable a trigger with a timer, the timer value will remain where it left off. IT DOES NOT RESET. This will make display timers out of sync with the timer. Be careful using these for now.
  
  
• .xs
  
  
  Important Note: See: https://www.forgottenempires.net/age-of-empires-ii-definitive-edition/xs-scripting-in-age-of-empires-ii-definitive-edition
  
  
• Modify Attribute Issue
  
  
  If you are using this, make sure the object does not exist on the map. If it does exist, the effects will not get applied. However, if the object is created after, the unit will get the changes. ("Replace Unit" will work if needed.)
  
  Update: I needed to reword this part. I messed it up and it's a very confusing concept to understand. Also, do not mix these with "Change Object <Stat/Name>". This will make a new object completely from scratch.

• Resource Types
  
  
  • See: Resource Types in the advanced section.
  
  
• Object Cost (Limit 3)
  
  
  • So, there is a hard coded limit on the cost types of 3. (All 4 resources is not possible sadly. Just thought I'd mention this.)
    
  • On a related note, if you try to modify a cost that did not exist on the unit, there is a chance that it just wont work at all. (Costs is kinda buggy as is anyway so be careful using this.)

Miscellaneous B (Guide Part 13)

This section relates to the maximum string of characters.

Note: While I know some of these max values are "technically incorrect", these are the "in-game" editor max values. Their actual max values differ a lot. (Experience from Learning the Scenario Format. For now, just assume these are correct for now. Unless, they change them in an update.)

Honestly, I do not know how I never known about this, but according to discord (I tested and it does work.) You can hold shift + click up/down UI button with a trigger selected and move the trigger up/down by 5. Alternatively, you can hold ctrl + click up/down UI button and move it up/down by 10.

Advanced Stuff (Information)

(The following sections are optional information. You can skip these if you want or come back to them later if need be.)

Finally, I wanted extra sections for advanced/complicated stuff. Some of this information is related to tests I do in the editor and dump the results here. If there is anything else you want me to add here, please let me know in the comments section and I will try to add it. (If available/able to.)

Terms (Information)

Throughout this guide, you may notice some terms you're not familiar with. As a programmer, I just wanted to list them here. Here is what they are/mean. (Feel free to skip this section for now and read it later on as a reference.)

• Boolean (Bit)
  
  
  • On/Off, Yes/No, True/False, Enabled/Disabled, or 0/1. (Only two possible values.)
  
  
• String
  
  
  • Letters, Numbers, Symbols, Etc. Basically, Text. "Hello World!"
  
  
• Byte (8 Bit)
  
  
  • This is a number between -128 and 127 Signed or 0 and 255 Unsigned.
  
  
• Short Integer (16 Bit)
  
  
  • This is a number between -32768 and 32767 Signed or 0 and 65535 Unsigned.

Advanced Genie Editor (AGE)

I realized I never explained AGE but I do mention it a few times. It could go in terms... but, I think I'll just link it to here... Anyway... (You don't have to read this section but, it does have some interesting information.)

AGE let's you look into the game data itself and let's you make mods of the data. (These can cause issues sometimes but, does allow for interesting concepts/ideas for modding.) You could get it online but, I noticed AOE2DE started including it in the games directory itself along with any changes they make. (It's probably better to use this one.) By default, it should be in here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\Tools_Builds\AdvancedGenieEditor3.exe

(Path may differ if you installed the game/AOE2DE/Steam elsewhere.)

Trigger Examples (Information)

(New Examples)

<TO DO>

(Old Example)

Here is a example trigger from my Jurassic Park Scenario:

• Objective: No
  
• State: Off
  
• Looping: Yes

• C0: Timer
  
• C1: Own Fewer Objects
  
• E0: Remove Object
  
• E1: Create Object
  
• E2: Change Object HP
  
• E3: Change Object Attack
  
• E4: Change Object Name

I activate this trigger later on in the scenario based on timers. This trigger spawns units. It first removes any units in it's way, creates the new unit, and applies some stat changes. Note: I task my objects in a seperate trigger. It's a good idea if you want a looping trigger like this.

Saving in Beta/PUP (Oops...)

So uh, I may have accidentally done this... I highly recommend you DO NOT DO THIS. (I realized my mistake too late.) Due to the changes in the versioning/updates/build, compatibility may/might only work in future updates/patches/builds of the game. So, trying to open scenarios in older/current versions may not load correctly...

Thankfully, I was told that most likely, it should be fixed in the next update/current PUP build. Although, I cannot exactly re-save it to the old format again... Just keep this in mind for now...

Translation of Scenario Text

Description/Explanation

This section is optional information. You do not have to do this unless you want to have your text translate to other languages. It can be a bit tedious/time consuming. It also helps if you know other languages as well. However, it is technically doable via google translate. (Not ideal but, it's better than only one language.)

Requirements/Skills Needed/Etc.

• Programmers Notepad. (or a Text Editor that can 'Encode' in 'UTF-8 No Mark')
  
• Know Multiple Languages/Know how to use Google Translate.
  
• General Knowledge on how the AOE2DE Scenario Editor works. (Including Triggers. See my guide if you need help on this.)
  
• How to make your own mods.

Named ID's (Update)

Note: Thanks to 'CanineCrown7153' to pointing this out.

Note that you can use named ID's. HOWEVER, to use them in the editor, you will have to copy/paste them in manually since they only accept numbers. Example:

MY_NEW_STRING_ID "Hello World!"

Then, you would just copy/paste: MY_NEW_STRING_ID as needed.

Update: It seems 'some' do accept characters. Perhaps, they are/were working on it at some point? Interesting nonetheless. (Noted)

Introduction/Guide

So, you want to know how to translate text in your scenario? It is actually very simple to do. However, there is one factor that you need to know/remember about. That is: String ID's. What is a String ID? A unique number. That's it. It really is that simple. (Well, not really but, there is only one other thing part of it. The actual string of characters that goes along with it.) Let me give you an example...

1 "This is a string."
2 "This is another string."
3 "Hello World!"
4 "This is fun."

Edit/Note: Technically, it can be anything that is Unique. However, it's probably better to stick with numbers for now...

See? Not too hard right? Well, not exactly... There is a slight problem with this example... These String ID's could be "in use". (I don't think they actually are but, that would require some research/checking into.) What do I mean exactly? First, let's go to the game's data directory for an explanation... Go to this path. (May be different depending on installation directory.)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\resources\en\strings\key-value

Now, open up the file named: key-value-strings-utf8.txt with your text editor.

Yeah... That is a lot of ID's... There are actually even more too... We can come back to that later though...

Hmm? What is "key-value-modded-strings-utf8.txt"? (It's in the directory too.) I am glad you asked! This is what file you will be using to add your own custom strings. (Just note that you will not be using this file directly. You should copy it into your mod directory in the correct format and such.)

You will also need to have some folders as well like this in your mods resources directory:



(Folder Names/Languages)

br = Portuguese
de = German
en = English
es = Spanish
fr = French
hi = Hindi
it = Italian
jp = Japanese
ko = Korean
ms = Malay
mx = Spanish (Latin? I honestly do not know the exact difference.)
pl = Polish
ru = Russian
tr = Turkish
tw = Chinese (Traditional)
vi = Vietnamese
zh = Chinese (Simplified)

These folder names are important for the languages. Inside each of these folders, you need to have more folders... Here is what it should look like...

• <Language Folder>
  
  • <strings>
    
    • <key-value>
      
      • key-value-modded-strings-utf8.txt

That is for all the languages you want to translate to. English is the "fallback" language in case there are no translations for other languages.

So, how exactly does this work? As I said, you need to use the String ID's for this to work. How? It's simple. In each of the language files of "key-value-modded-strings-utf8.txt" you add a unique ID and the string. Here is an example...

<English>
1337 "Hello."
<Spanish>
1337 "Hola."
<Portuguese>
1337 "Olá."
<Japanese>
1337 "こんにちは"

and so on...

So, you have a translated string... Now what? Simple. Use the String ID in the editor and it should work just fine. How? Well, there are a few different things that can use strings... I'll make a list of what you can use...

• Players Civilization Name.
  
• Message Tab. (All of them are available to use.)
  
• String Based Trigger Effects. (Name, Description, Etc.)
  
• Objectives.

That's all there is to it. Really. Although, I do want to point out something. If you do not use the correct encoding or do something incorrectly, the translations can break the game/UI sometimes. If you see something go wrong, check to be sure you are doing this exactly as I said and used the correct encoding. (UTF-8 does not work sadly. It has to be UTF-8 No Mark. At least, from my experience. I am not a encoding expert...)

Programmer's Notepad Users: If you have not already found it, go to File -> Encoding -> UTF-8 No Mark and save the file. If you use another editor, you will have to determine how to do it yourself. (google it/read the help information.)

Also, NEVER use an existing String ID from the game! It has to be unique! (You will have to find one yourself that is not in use. The max value I believe is a integer so, 2.14 billion possible ID's. I personally just used 2 billion and went up from there by 1. Just note that if you choose to do this, I assume modded strings will also have to be taken into consideration. Documenting these ID's may be advised for other modders.)

Update: To clarify something; you can use existing ID's if you need to but, only if you are updating the existing ID's for a reason in your mod. As to why you would, is up to you. Like translating the game into another language for example.

Finally, here is a list of directories that has string files. (That I know of.)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\resources\_common\strings
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\resources\<Language>
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\resources\<Language>\strings
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\resources\<Language>\strings\history
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\resources\<Language>\strings\key-value

Very Important Note (String/Mod Related)

Update/Note: I believe this was 'fixed/patched' at some point but, I never mentioned it. You should be able to include it in the data mod without issues. (Feel free to let me know if I am wrong but, I have done it recently and it worked for me so...)

So, it seems that something important has come to my attention. (Thanks PsychoticSock.) There can be a issue with mods that include string ID's with datasets. (I had a mod that included the strings and the datamod itself.) DO NOT DO THIS.

Instead, make each mod separately. (The Dataset/Graphics on it's own and the String ID's on it's own.) Why? Well, this can cause a... 'Not Loaded in Time/Properly?' Issue... (It's hard to describe...) But basically, the problem is, the String ID's don't get prioritized/loaded at the correct time and they may not work as you intend. (Explanation from Experience: The result from my experience/test was trying to add these objects to the editor. I knew they were correct but, they did not show up. After I separated the mods, they show up just fine/as intended.)

Important Note: Make sure the/your 'String ID's mod' has Higher priority over all mods. (This should hopefully make it that it will load correctly all the time.)

(WIP) Markup Codes (Strings)

I know some of these exist but, I don't know all of them. I want to add this to the guide but, I need to do some research. I will list a few of them in the meantime.

You can put these inside strings to add specific data to the string as needed. It's pretty common in unit descriptions.

Resource Types (Part 1)

I am just going to put this here... There are a lot of these that I still need to go though... I grabbed these from TS's data_aok.xml file.

(Note that the first 4 have a ! in front of them. I believe this is DE only. IIRC, these were not present in the other versions with the !)

* I will mark these with a star for now to note where I left off while looking though the list...

Adding the Values inside <> in case you want to use the string markup. (Assuming they are named correctly.)

Crash Note: I am not 100% sure but, while testing, my game crashed. I believe it has to do with the player count. If you use these with player count, be sure the players are actually in the game/scenario before using them.

Update: Seems they went alphabetical order... Time to reorganize...

Custom Training/Researching (Part 1)

This one was pretty important to me and I need to do it eventually... So, let's do this... All buildings are not the same when it comes to custom training/researching. So, I am going though all the buildings and seeing which ones work and which ones don't. (I already know a few from testing but not complete yet... It's actually pretty interesting. I will also note special cases and whatnot here.)

Important Note: All these tests are done by Disabling all Units, Techs, and Buildings. (This is done to show the maximum usage of button spots. You will still have to manually check each button if you do not disable all of them or manually enable them yourself.)

Note: I am only checking the selectable/icon buildings in the editor. There is little reason to use the others. (For now anyway...)

Update: I tested all research on a Lumber Camp and they all worked fine. Note that one issue can come up I noticed. If you move the Age Up Button, it will still remain on the Town Center but, it won't do anything. It will work on the new building though.

Important Update: So, it turns out they scattered the Numbers into 'sections'. 1 to 15 (Page 1) and 21 to 35 (Page 2). I will still have to edit the guide a bit... The general idea is the same though... For Page 2 though, you will have to manually calculate the numbers to avoid/use.

Patch Update: 15 is now usable for all buildings and buttons 6, 11 for the market is now usable.

Here is the format I intend to use:

(Classification)

• 1: Can Apply Custom Button and Trainable/Researchable. (Recommended to use these.)
  
  
  
• 2: Can Apply Custom Button but, not Trainable/Researchable or it can but, it is extremely slow to do so. (Only use these if you need to.)
  
  Update/Note: In some cases, you can change the "Work Rate" to 1 and it will work fine.
  
  
• 3: Cannot Apply Custom Button or Trainable/Researchable. (Not recommended to use these.)
  

(Pages)

• 1: 1 Page. (This is the standard pages on all buildings.)
  
  
• 2: 2 Pages. (There are only 2 objects that I know of that have this. Docks/Harbors. I know its very specific but, I will write it down nonetheless.)
  Update: Technically, this is still usable. (I will have to do more testing but, you can use button numbers 21 to 35.)

(Avoidance)

• Certain Button Numbers should be avoided when possible. The most common Numbers are: 1, 5, 10, and 15. (Lock/Unlock/Reseed/Ungarrison/Etc, Set Gather Point, and Next Page. Others will be mentioned such as the market later on. Probably a Extra Section. Will come back to this.)
  Update: For Page 2, you also need to remove 21, 25, 30, 35. (For these above since they are static on both Pages.)
  Update: I am going to remove 1 and 21 from the lists. (Except for Gates Type Objects. They only apply there anyhow...)
  
  
• Note: It's probably safe to assume all other buttons are usable besides the avoidance ones. Just test it yourself to be sure it works though.

(Full)

• This is an extra list when all techs are enabled. You will have to avoid these buttons too if you have everything enabled.

(Format)

• Building: <NAME>
  
• Classification: <1, 2, or 3> ( )
  
• Pages: <1 or 2> (Default Pages)
  
• Avoidance: <1 to 35>
  
• Full: <1 to 35>

Important Update: I noticed this just now. When you add a 'Trainable Object' to an 'Building', the Game automatically adds a 'Set Gather Point' Button. (5) Meaning, most likely, Button 5 will have to be avoided for all. (Note: This does not apply to research but, it makes sense to avoid it nonetheless.)
Update: Also, it adds a 'Ungarrison Button' as well but, Hidden until Garrisoned Inside of. (10). I will add this to them as well.
Update: As for Page 2, that would be (25) and (30). I will add these too.

Custom Training/Researching (Part 2)

Note: Tested with Villager Building. (All other unit types may or may not work. This is just a common test for now...)

Note: I did some simple testing with chemistry and I think they are basically the same. (Merging both as one.)

* Note: You may need to be careful about training land units with these. Still need to test later.
** Note: Not sure if I should include this or not.
*** Note: I do not recommend using these unless you have to... The list type seems to get mixed up and can throw you off in the editor.
**** Note: I am a bit confused on this... It does not act the way I assumed it would. Be careful using this object.

Edit: It turns out that the 'Harbor' Building is something completely different. (It's not part of the Malay Civ.)

Note: I don't own the expansions so, some of those details from me are questionable for now.

Object ID'S List (Part 1)

Just a list of Object ID's in case you need them/wondering what they are... (A good reference.)

Note to Self: Also include the special Unit ID's like Huskarl from Barracks and such...

Note: I am unsure if I will include Projectile ID's and other things... I will see...

Update: I need to separate these into their own sections... This section may be gone later...

Note: Assuming they do not make major changes to the dataset, these should always be valid.

AI Stuff

I just wanted to make this a quick reference section. If you want to do anything related to AI stuff, please refer to this site:

https://airef.github.io/index.html

The old docs are still somewhat helpful but, they are out of date at this point. Which you can find in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AoE2DE\Docs\All

RMS Stuff

Just a quick reference section. I recommend reading this site for the most up to date info:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jnhZXoeL9mkRUJxcGlKnO98fIwFKStP_OBozpr0CHXo/edit

The old docs are still somewhat helpful but, they are out of date at this point. Which you can find in:

XS Stuff

Note: You will need a text editor for this. I recommend Notepad++.

Note: You might want to read the "Terms (Information)" section if you want to use xs or read about it more in the guide below. Both are good.

A few things I need to mention before I get into this.

1: You need to know the following location. It can be important.

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Games\Age of Empires 2 DE\<STEAM_ID>\profile\

This is where the xsdat files will be generated. (This is mainly for Read/Write functions though. If you don't use these, this directory is not really important. Still good to know though.)

2: If you test in the editor, it will default to "default0.xsdat". HOWEVER, if you have a mod scenario with the same name as the mod xs file, it will use the mod scenario's filename instead. Like so:

"example.aoe2scenario"
"example.xs"

will output:

"example.xsdat"

Generally speaking anyway. In Skirmish, it should do the same. (I think. There are some weird edge cases sometimes.)

3: While testing custom campaigns, I found that they did not seem to detect either... They did work however in skirmish/single player. May be a bug. Hopefully, this is fixed later.

Now according to the community guide, you need to use a "main" function. While yes, it is good practice, (and you should.) I found that you don't actually have to. (If it's something simple.) Feel free to if you are still learning but, you still should.

Anyway, I don't think I need to write out a whole section myself since their guide is good. I do recommend reading that. It has a lot of great information. (Some that even I did not know. Such as rules. Which are very useful.)

https://ugc.aoe2.rocks/general/xs/beginner/

Note: But, if you do get into the read/write stuff, I recommend getting a Hex editor. (I am currently using HxD.) You can probably search the web if you need further help on the subject but, it all comes down to data types. (in some form or another. Like Binary, Bytes, Strings, Floats, Hex, Etc...)

Testing Note #1: [Speculation] I found that the scaling seems to be (generally. minus the scaling attribute.) handled automatically. (x1 and x2 are not a thing apparently?) Also, after trial/error, I finally managed to draw a tile that is EXACTLY like the grid in game. It is a bit weird though. It uses a 2-3 isometric line. (I hate it but, whatever.) Here is the image if you want it:



Testing Note #2: I always assumed pivot would be the "anchor point" but, apparently not? I honestly have no idea how to adjust it. It seems to always align in the center. (it's half off aligned on the grid. You can though, adjust the image width/height to adjust it probably.)

Testing Note #3: I found a weird/minor issue as well while testing out my custom particles. They do not seem to 'update' until the game is actually started. In the editor, they seem to not show/update properly until you test the map/scenario at least once. Keep this in mind.

Other Stuff

Anything else that others mention in comments or message me.

"Hi!

A comment on hotkey ID in modify attribute. I'll have to split this on two parts

Thread part 01:

This ID is linked to every trainable unit. You can get this number using Advanced Genie Editor 3, included in the Tools_Builds folder, in the main game folder.
Just look for the 'Hotkey*' entry.

For example, for Militia, Champion, Longswordsman, Two handed swordsman and Mant-at-arms it's 16079 (I don't know if you can mod this for every unit in the militia line, so that's why I didn't say militia-line, but that's beyond the scope of this tutorial).
For Knight, Cavalier and Paladin it's 16070 and so on.

This means that if you change the place of training of a unit, or construction of a building, it will keep its hotkey. If you have asigned Q for militia, for example, and move it to a Trade Workshop, to square 3, for example, it will still be trainable using Q."

"A comment on hotkey ID in modify attribute: part 02

You can use this for the following. Say you want to train Legions in barracks. You enable and change place of training with triggers. If you want the player to be able to use its own hotkeys, you can assign it hotkey 16673, which is Eagle Warrior hotkey code.

A thing to notice: remember, the game engine considers Huskarls/Tarkans trained at barracks/stable different units of Huskarls/Tarkans trained at Castle. For example, Barracks huskarl hotkey id is 16748 and Castle huskarl is 16104."

Originally posted by SpoOkyMagician:

Interesting Fact: If you try to replace a mass amount of units in the editor via triggers, the limit is 10000. (Unless, it's looping. It will replace each step by 10k. But if not, it will only replace 10k once in a trigger.)

Originally posted by SpoOkyMagician:

Since the editor does not have a 'group hotkey set' function, the game will only task 60 units at a time. If you do the whole map as the area, it won't get all of them. You need to limit the area to specific smaller areas where they are spawned/created and tasked in those areas. This way, it will task up to 60 units at a time in that area. (Be sure to loop a trigger and have it on a small timer of at least 2 seconds. 1 second is too short.)

Originally posted by SpoOkyMagician:

So, I did some testing with AGE for max ID's. I am a bit unsure of these values but, they did crash at that point. (For the program anyway.) 20505 Units, (Why is this so low?) 1089882 for Graphics, and 2275439 for Sounds. (Going above this value throws an error. For me anyway.) 591312 for Techs. 394208 for Effects. 138254 Ages. (LMAO.) 63 Civs. (Damn. Not many it seems.) 106203 Terrain Tables. 52596 Colors. 19380 Maps. 3364091 for Effect Commands.

You can modify a gaia storage resource without data modding. You have to change it's DeadUnitID to itself AND change the resource storage. (I found max is 32767. Any higher, it glitches out.) Once you finish collecting from the first object, the new object replacing it will have the new value you set.

Originally posted by SpoOkyMagician:

I thought I mentioned this but, it seems I did not. Be careful using "Change Object Name". This creates a "New" Object and has issues with applying stats. Also, I found a really bad side effect too. If you double click a renamed unit, it will ALSO select OTHER renamed units. (Regardless if they are the same type or not.)

Originally posted by Ekarlath:

I can confirm that it is possible to modify "unregistered attributes" using the xsEffectAmount code in a call script trigger !
(unregistered attributes = not in the dropdown list of "modify attributes" trigger)

Now it's tryhard time to find all those unkown attributes ID !

I'll probably share what I find on the Genie_Editor page of the AoE fandom.
If you're interessed in doing a small XS scripting section for attributes manipulation in the guide, it would be a pleasure for me to assist you in that regard.

Upon further investigation, I'm deducting that there is some kind of hardcoded failsafe to prevent altering in real time that attribute for now. So I'll be waiting for the devs to allow editor editing of that value.

Good point is that we know for sure "Combat Ability" is not the Special Ability field, it's the AGE "Break off combat" one, that serv for auras and ground attacking.

With task addition to the XS scripting with the last update, it's now possible to create centurion like aura for units in the game, as they shown example in the patchnote.

Originally posted by SpoOkyMagician:

So, you can do the following garrison stacking it seems:

1: Militia inside a Militia. (or any unit really.)
2: Militia garrisons inside a Ram.
3: Ram garrisons inside a Transport Ship.
(This is as far as you can go I believe.)

Conclusion (Guide Part 15)

With all of the new Conditions/Effects, I expect for many new impressive Scenarios to be released. (It may take some time since they game just came out recently.) I can't wait to see what Scenario Designers come up with. (Including myself.)

Good Luck and Have Fun Everyone!
