Do Objectives change number based on difficulty?

The following is from the Objectives wiki regarding exit objectives:

Please note that you need to create a separate exit objective for each difficulty level, since the enabling objective numbers change with difficulty levels.

 

Is this correct? If I have an Objective #3 that is only for Expert difficulty, does that mean Objective #4 becomes Objective #3 when played on Easy? I have a hard time believing that it works that way, as that would make keeping track of mandatory objectives quite cumbersome. Can someone confirm if this is, in fact, the case?

Personally I think it works better to have one topic per topic. That way you can see the sort of question at a glance and know if you can help or indeed, know if you can't help. It also helps way in the future if you are searching. Some of the big threads meander on hundreds of topics and if they get stuck on some non-editing thing for days and weeks I tend not to even read them.

Yep, what Fidcal said. Our search engine is lousy, so finding things buried in beginner megathreads gets very difficult.

 

And when it comes to mapping, I'm as much a beginner as anyone. ;)

This might only refer to cases where more mandatory objectives get added at higher difficulty levels. Not ongoing objectives like "don't kill anyone," but extra objectives like "also steal the valuable spyglass." Because then you'd have to add this to the enabling objectives of the "exit mission" objective, otherwise it would let you exit/end the mission without completing this extra mandatory objective.

 

Edit: also, what MD posted will fail the mission if you kill rats, spiders or undead, too. You may want to change to specifying by AI group and choose humans instead.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
