void | RegisterInventoryEvent (const EInventoryEvent _EventType, TOnInventoryEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sTargetName, const uint8 _Faction) |
register an event concerning the hero party's inventory | |
void | RegisterCreatureInventoryEvent (const ECreatureInventoryEvent _EventType, TOnCreatureInventoryEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sTargetName, const uint8 _Faction) |
register an event concerning the hero party's inventory specific to a creature | |
void | RegisterCreatureEventByDescription (const ECreatureEvent _EventType, TOnCreatureEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sDescriptionName, const uint8 _Faction, const string&in _sParam = "") |
register creature event by description name | |
void | RegisterCreatureEventByIndividual (const ECreatureEvent _EventType, TOnCreatureEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sCreatureName, const string&in _sParam) |
register creature event by individual creature name (e.g. name of the creature placed in the level editor OR unique hero name).
Please note, that this event can't be used, when the individual doesn't exist at the beginning of the map (for example when the creature spawns later). | |
void | RegisterCreatureEventByIndividuals (const ECreatureEvent _EventType, TOnCreatureEvent@ _pFunction, const Creature[]&in _Creatures, const bool _bAnyCreature = false, const string&in _sParam = "") |
register creature event by individual creature(s) | |
void | RegisterBuildingEventByDescription (const EBuildingEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sDescriptionName, const uint8 _Faction) |
register building event by description name | |
void | RegisterBuildingEventByIndividual (const EBuildingEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sBuildingName) |
register building event by individual building name (i.e. name of the building in the level editor) | |

register building event by individual building instance | |
void | RegisterBuildingEventByDescription (const EBuildingEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingExtendedEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sDescriptionName, const uint8 _Faction) |
same as above, but receives extra information for certain event types | |
void | RegisterBuildingEventByIndividual (const EBuildingEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingExtendedEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sBuildingName) |
same as above, but receives extra information for certain event types | |
void | RegisterBuildingEventByIndividual (const EBuildingEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingExtendedEvent@ _pFunction, const Building&in _Building) |
same as above, but receives extra information for certain event types | |
void | RegisterBuildingCreatureEventByDescription (const EBuildingCreatureEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingCreatureEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sDescriptionName, const uint8 _Faction) |
register building event involving creatures by description name | |
void | RegisterBuildingCreatureEventByIndividual (const EBuildingCreatureEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingCreatureEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sBuildingName) |
register building event involving creatures by individual building name (i.e. name of the building in the level editor) | |
void | RegisterBuildingCreatureEventByIndividual (const EBuildingCreatureEvent _EventType, TOnBuildingCreatureEvent@ _pFunction, const Building&in _Building) |
register building event involving creatures by individual building instance | |
void | RegisterLogicObjectEvent (const ELogicObjectEvent _EventType, TOnLogicObjectEvent@ _pFunction, const string&in _sObjectName, const uint8 _Faction) |
