How to patch the DLC data(scenario)? #160

Open dominions opened 2 years ago

dominions commented 2 years ago

I found the scenario data XML using a ScenarioBaseAssetGUID instead of GUID. It tries to edit it with the following codes(Anno 1800\mods\MyMod\data\config\export\main\asset\assets.xml) :

<ModOp Type="add" ScenarioBaseAssetGUID='25743' Path = "/Values/PopulationUpgrade/InputBenefitModifier">
    ......
</ModOp>

The log information is: No matching node for Path //Asset[ScenarioBaseAssetGUID = '25743']/Values/PopulationUpgrade/InputBenefitModifier

I notice that the XML files of scenario is define in a path like that: dlc10\scenario02\config\game\assets\scenario\config\export\main\asset. Does the mod patch file should place in similar ways, i.e. anno 1800/mods/MyMod/dlc10\scenario02\config\game\assets\scenario\config\export\main\asset? It fails with the error log: Failed to get original game file dlc10\scenario02\config\game\assets\scenario\config\export\main\asset\assets.xml

<ModOp Type="<function>" Path="//Asset[ScenarioBaseAssetGUID = '<ScenarioBasedAssetGUID number>']/Values/. . . . . ">

the patch file should be placed in the same way, i.e. mods/MyMod/data/dlc10\scenario02\config\game\assets\scenario\config\export\main\asset there is no "/data" in your file path
