Hi guys. In weapon.ini there are codes which are for exp NONE +STRUCTURE, ANY +STRUCTURE. What is the difference between them?

İs this 2 way same ?  :

 

DamageScalar  = 200% NONE +STRUCTURE -MoriarGoblinLair -WargLair -CaveTrollLair

DamageScalar  = 200% ANY +STRUCTURE -MoriarGoblinLair -WargLair -CaveTrollLair

 

Thanks for answer in advance..

In this specific instance it would have the same effect.

They really shouldn't use NONE and then negatives, but they have in some places. In this case it should be ANY, and then STRUCTURES. To say it will affect any object with the STRUCTURE kindof. And then if you have any specific structures that you want to exclude, you can add them with a negative.

Edit: You can also include specific objects with a "+" sign, without having to include a whole kindof group.

If I dont understand wrong, negative sign (-) should be used with ANY. Except of that, I can use both ANY and NONE. Am I right?

In most cases, yes.

I generally use either ANY or ALL, and then choose which kindofs or specific units I want to include or exclude.

For an example, if I wanted to make a weapon that had a damage bonus against all infantry units, except Gondor Soldiers, I would do this:

DamageScalar  = 150% ANY +INFANTRY -GondorFighter

And if I wanted a weapon that didn't work against anything but say Frodo, then it would look like this:

DamageScalar  = 0% ALL -RohanFrodo
