Quagmire Eventstages

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-06

Overview​

quagmire_eventstages.lua is a prefab generator for the Quagmire event system. It dynamically constructs a set of stage-specific prefabs (e.g., quagmirestage_cravings, quagmirestage_delay, etc.) by querying an external registry (event_server_data) and executing associated initialization functions. This pattern centralizes stage configuration while decoupling prefab definitions from their behavior logic.

The prefabs are primarily used to represent triggers or markers for discrete phases or events in Quagmire matches (such as cravings, delays, or match-end conditions), and are likely spawned or activated by the event controller during gameplay.

Usage example​

This file is not intended for direct usage in mod code. It is executed during game initialization to populate the prefab registry with stage prefabs. A modder would typically interact with these via GetPrefab("quagmirestage_delay") or through the event system.

-- Example: Retrieve and spawn a Quagmire stage prefab (e.g., "delay")
local stage = PrefabLoc("quagmirestage_delay")()
stage.Transform:SetPosition(0, 0, 0)
TheSim:AddEntity(stage)

Dependencies & tags​

Components used: None identified
Tags: Adds the tag quagmirestage to each generated prefab instance (via the event_server_data fn, as inferred from naming and contextual behavior).

Properties​

No public properties defined in this file.

Main functions​

This file does not define any main functions. It is a procedural module that returns a list of prefabs.

Events & listeners​

  • Pushes: Prefab creation triggers the event_server_data("quagmire", "prefabs/quagmire_eventstages")[v.."fn"]() function, which may internally push events (e.g., cravings, delay, etc.) — but this file itself does not register or fire events.
