TFS 1.X+ Log onUse

[peteralto]

Is it possible to generate a log with the time and name of the player that executes an action script? For example, opening a quest chest.

 

[Roddet]

local generateLog = Action()
function generateLog.onUse(player, item, fromPosition, target, toPosition, isHotkey)
    local file = io.open("data/logs/actions.log", "a")
    if file then
        file:write(("[%s] Player \"%s\" opened a chest."):format(os.date("%c", os.time()), player:getName()), "\n")
        file:close()
    end
    return true
end

generateLog:aid(1000)
generateLog:register()

Edit: Or better yet, since you probably want to log multiple actions

generateLog = function(s, path)
    local file = io.open(path, "a")
    if file then
        file:write("["..os.date("%c", os.time()).."] "..s, "\n")
        file:close()
    end
end

local name = "Roddet"
local rupees = 50

generateLog(string.format("Player \"%s\" opened a chest with %d rupees", name, rupees), "actions.log")

%s expects a "string" and %d expects a number
