Casio91Fin 31 Posted April 17, 2020 Hey. How do I get this to work right when it doesn't really seem to help even a wiki site https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Stringtable.xml The problem is this. //#1 Clear Village (Oreokastro) text #1 Attack the Oreokastro and destroy the enemy completely = STR_CAS_Text1 [allPlayers, ["task1"],["$STR_CAS_.Text1","Oreokastro",""],[4600,21400], true, 99, true, "attack", true] call BIS_fnc_taskCreate; how this should be done?

Running a script or scripted function, localize is used to get the string text. For a little more clarity, although BIS_fnc_taskCreate is a defined config function, its code is compiled from script and you're calling its code. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
