City State Influence Purchasing (CEAI_Events.lua) #199

Open stackpoint opened 10 years ago

@Thalassicus, I was looking over the code for AI influence purchasing for CSD compatibility and I noticed that the PurchaseInfluence function that I believe handles that logic is never called anywhere. I was wondering if you had disabled the function intentionally because the base game can handle influence purchasing or otherwise.

The purchase functions are stored in the DoFlavorFunction branch table:


DoFlavorFunction = {
    FLAVOR_DIPLOMACY            = PurchaseInfluence,
    FLAVOR_OFFENSE              = PurchaseOneUnitOfFlavor,
    ...
}

That line of the branch table is overridden for people using CSD:

if Cep.USING_CSD > 0 then
    DoFlavorFunction.FLAVOR_DIPLOMACY = PurchaseOneUnitOfFlavor
end

This branch table is called in the Low Priorities section of the purchase AI:

success = DoFlavorFunction[flavorType](player, cities, goldMin, flavorType)
