(LUA) QUESTION about SetPlayerStorageValue

[Whiskey]

I have a simple question about setPlayerStorageValue(cid,storage,value) function: Can I add 1 or remove 1 value from a specific storage? Not change it to a certain number, but ADD or REMOVE one (or more) from actual player storage value state?

 

[iruga]

i know one, you can do with db.execute() but you will need kick the player before remove the storage.

 

[Whiskey]

Thanks but that's not a sollution for me. Is there any other way without kicking the player?

 

[chojrak]

Set -1 as value, it'll remove that storage.

 

[Whiskey]

I don't want it removed. I want to decrease or increase the value...

ps. Besides it won't remove it, storage will remain with value -1.

 

[chojrak]

function increaseStorageValue(cid, key, amount)
	amount = amount or 1
	if(isPlayer(cid)) then
		doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key, getPlayerStorageValue(cid, key) + amount)
	end
	return true
end

Like this? ;p

 

[Shinmaru]

function increaseStorageValue(cid, key, amount)
	amount = amount or 1
	if(isPlayer(cid)) then
		doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key, getPlayerStorageValue(cid, key) + amount)
	end
	return true
end

Like this? ;p

stop failing man!
What he means is he wants the "key" to change not the storage value:
Ex:
Shinmaru -> Key = 12345 -> StorageValue = -1 or 0 or 1(whatever) but I insist on what iruga said it has to be done to D, but maybe there can be a work around, I just haven't figured it out.

Edit:
Here is a mock-up function:

function increaseStorageKey(cid, key, amount, storage)
	amount = amount or 1
	if(isPlayer(cid)) then
		doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key, -1)
	end
	key = key+amount
	return doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key, storage)
end

Question is, if the storage is set to -1, will it remove the key from the DB?

Question is, if the storage is set to -1, will it remove the key from the DB?

no.

to erase storage, use setPlayerStorageValue(cid, key) (without value)

 

[Shinmaru]

no.

to erase storage, use setPlayerStorageValue(cid, key) (without value)

Thanks!
then it can be erased!

this should work!

function increaseStorageKey(cid, key, storage, amount)
	amount = amount or 1
	if(isPlayer(cid)) then
		doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key)
	end
	key = key+amount
	return doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key, storage)
end

function decreaseStorageKey(cid, key, storage, amount)
	amount = amount or 1
	if(isPlayer(cid)) then
		doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key)
	end
	key = key-amount
	return doPlayerSetStorageValue(cid, key, storage)
end

Would db.execute() work with function onDie?
