Using @NullPointer save, indeed script wont detect turrets.

But using /editor there is area "defend-1" within which turret should be built. Actual area is little larger as turret can be build outside defend-1 area but within chunk that overlaps with defend-1 area.

-- edit1:

Or maybe condition is not based upon "defend-1" area but "east-expansion". Then you are still 1 chunk outside of this area

-- edit2:

story-condition.lua:

Code: Select all

conditions['entrench'] = function(event)
  // ...
  local loaded = check.number_of_loaded_turrets_in_areas({'east-expansion'},1)
  // ...
  return researched and loaded and stockpile
end

Area in which it detects the turret got bigger but in my case it did not detect the already placed turrets [0.17.8]

Yep, confirmed. I built the turret closer to the rest of the base and it detected correctly.

This locations just seemed like the most effective choke point.

yes, the quest only detects turrets placed in the 'east-expansion' area.

During focus testing, new players didnt tend to build so far to the left. While i refuse to add any invisible "no-build" zones, I will come up with another solution for this.

Also, where you have built, the biters in the final wave will spawn behind your turrets.
