I made a small modification to your mod that I thought I would share in case you (or anyone else) found it useful.

I would have sent it to you (Framistan) privately, except Steam doesn't seem to allow that unless you're Friends.




Set the guard die's initial value when each guard has their very first destination set.


Scripts Changed: Global


============================================


Original:

-- Has the guard for a floor already been placed in its initial location?
-- Set by the Patrol Control's placeGuard() script.
guardPlaced = {},


New:

-- Has the guard for a floor already been placed in its initial location?
-- Set by the Patrol Control's placeGuard() script.
guardPlaced = {},

-- Has the guard had its first destination set yet?
-- Set by newDestination().
guardInitialDestination = {},



============================================


Original:

for thisFloor = 1, 3 do
allTheVars.guardPlaced[ thisFloor ] = false
allTheVars.patrolLeftovers[ thisFloor ] = nil
end


New:

for thisFloor = 1, 3 do
allTheVars.guardPlaced[ thisFloor ] = false
allTheVars.guardInitialDestination[ thisFloor ] = false
allTheVars.patrolLeftovers[ thisFloor ] = nil
end



============================================

Original:

-- Get local pointers to the game variables.
local gameStarted = Global.getVar( "gameStarted" )
local guardPlaced = Global.getVar( "guardPlaced" )
local patrolLeftovers = Global.getVar( "patrolLeftovers" )


New:

-- Get local pointers to the game variables.
local gameStarted = Global.getVar( "gameStarted" )
local guardPlaced = Global.getVar( "guardPlaced" )
local guardInitialDestination = Global.getVar( "guardInitialDestination" )
local patrolLeftovers = Global.getVar( "patrolLeftovers" )



============================================

Original:

-- Move the guard die.
local theGuardDie = Global.call( "getObjectFromName",
{ "Guard" .. theFloor .. " Die" } )
theGuardDie.setPositionSmooth( newDestLoc )


New:

-- If this is the initial placement of the guard, set the initial guard die value.
local theGuardDie = Global.call( "getObjectFromName",
{ "Guard" .. theFloor .. " Die" } )

if guardInitialDestination[ theFloor ] == false then
local guardDieValue = theFloor + 1
theGuardDie.setValue(guardDieValue)

-- Remember that the guard has had its initial destination set.
guardInitialDestination[ theFloor ] = true
Global.setVar( "guardInitialDestination", guardInitialDestination )

end

-- Move the guard die.
theGuardDie.setPositionSmooth( newDestLoc )

It's a small change, but I made it because it seemed to be the one thing missing from the otherwise very thorough scripted setup.

Hopefully, someone finds this useful.
