[Request] storage value help

Darkshadows · Nov 24, 2008

I believe I have done it once before, but I don't remember how...

something along the lines of a table inside a storage value

for example...
___________________________________________________________________________
table = {7673, 7670, 7680, 7682, 7684, 7686, 7688, 7690, 7992, 7994}

setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345, table)

Then it would look something like this...

testing = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345)

if testing[1] == 7673 then
___________________________________________________________________________
etc.

Code:

local storages = {
	7673, 7670, 7680, 7682, 7684, 7686, 7688, 7690, 7992, 7994
	}

for i = 1, table.maxn(storages) do
	setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345, i)
end

local testing = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345)

if testing == storages[1] then
	print('oi')
elseif testing == storages[2] then
	print('oi2')
--and so on....
end

???????

I'll give it a try, thanks

Not working ;/ i got this to test it...

Code:

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)

local storages = {
	7673, 7670, 7680, 7682, 7684, 7686, 7688, 7690, 7992, 7994
	}
for i = 1, table.maxn(storages) do
	setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345, i)
end

local testing = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345)

if testing == storages[1] then
doPlayerSay(cid,working,1)
end
end

and its not giving any errors...

Tell me exactly how do you want this to be working...
Values in table have to be storageid or storagevalue?

Also,

Code:

doPlayerSay(cid,working,1)

working is a string and should be quoted.

Darkshadows · Nov 24, 2008

I need it to assign a table of values to a player where i can retrieve it for a separate script...

fixed the playersay, but still wont work

Darkshadows · Nov 24, 2008

I could probably make it work, but i havnt ever used "i" and dont understand it...

EvulMastah · Nov 24, 2008

Code:

function onSay(cid, words, param)
	if param == "set" then
		local assignements = {
			[7673] = 1, [7670] = 1, [7680] = 0, [7682] = 1, [7684] = 0,
			[7686] = 1, [7688] = 1, [7690] = 0, [7992] = 0, [7994] = 0
			}
		for storage, value in pairs(assignements) do
			setPlayerStorageValue(cid, storage, value)
		end
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR, "Storages set!")
	elseif param == "check" then
		if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, 7673) == 1 then
			doCreatureSay(cid, "Storage key is 1.", TALKTYPE_SAY)
		end
	end
	return TRUE
end

Like this...?

Darkshadows · Nov 24, 2008

No, its an action. and i need those numbers set to 1 storage value, not multiple

Here.. ill tell you the full plan...

I am making "guild buffs" and an npc must set a global storagevalue (for 1 guild...) so say guild 'ownators' bought the buffs of Regen, shielding, meelee, but not distance, and a light value

then the global storage value for the guild must be set to "1, 1, 1, 0, 273(color)"
and the next storage value is the level of buff... "2, 3, 1, 0, 4(intensity of light)"

and since my server doenst have onlogin i will make a switch in town to refresh your buffs when you login or your guild buys more...

im gonna edit this post to not reveal this after i get the code btw...

EvulMastah · Nov 24, 2008

Each storage has its own key...
You can not have 1 storage with few keys.
E.g:

Code:

setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345, 1)
setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345, 0)
setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 12345, 10)

Would end up with having storage id 12345 with key 10.

Darkshadows · Nov 24, 2008

So you cannot make a table to a globalstoragevalue?

EvulMastah · Nov 24, 2008

Global storage value also can have one key only...

Code:

setGlobalStorageValue(12345, 0)
setGlobalStorageValue(12345, -1)
setGlobalStorageValue(12345, 1)

Will end up having key #1.

Be more specific maybe? :S

Darkshadows · Nov 24, 2008

I understand that you overwrite them if you do motiples... but can you not apply a TABLE of values to it?

such as storage[1]-[5] are all applied to 1 storage?

in that case maybe something along the lines of this...

guild_id = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, 112233) --make the guildmaster assign ths depending on which guild...
base_storage = 12345
guild_storage = base_storage + (guild_id * 10)

if getGlobalStorageValue(guild_storage + 0) == 1 then
regen = createConditionObject()
setCombatParam(regen, CONDITION_PARAM_MANAGAIN, CONDITION_PARAM_MANATICKS)

cept im not sure how to assign the regen amounts... to 5 mana every 5 secs or something to that affect

but i can make it less storage values by doing it as levels.. regen level, meelee level, shielding level, distance level, light color, light intensity... so in that code its saying if the first guild storage value is 1 (regen lvl 1) then do that... and i would use elseif = 2 etc. for other lvls of regen and then same for the others... or perhaps 5 manaregain * level and ticks remain the same i dunno...

Do you mean like this?

Code:

getGlobalStorageValue(500,1)
getGlobalStorageValue(502,1)
getGlobalStorageValue(503,1)
getGlobalStorageValue(504,1)

or do you mean this?

Code:

getGlobalStorageValue(500,1)
getGlobalStorageValue(500,2)
getGlobalStorageValue(500,3)
getGlobalStorageValue(500,4)

1st would be possible and you could use the function i made therefore.

2nd does not work because the last set value would be remembered.

link for the function: function

kind regards, Evil Hero

nm... i got it

Code:

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)

guild_id = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, 112233) --make the guildmaster assign ths depending on which guild...
base_storage = 12345
guild_storage = base_storage + (guild_id * 10)

if getGlobalStorageValue(guild_storage + 0) == 1 then
regen = createConditionObject()
setCombatParam(regen, CONDITION_PARAM_MANAGAIN, (5 * getGlobalStorageValue(guild_storage + 0)))
setCombatParam(regen, CONDITION_PARAM_MANATICKS, 5)
setCombatParam(regen, CONDITION_PARAM_HEALTHGAIN, (5 * getGlobalStorageValue(guild_storage + 0)))
setCombatParam(regen, CONDITION_PARAM_HEALTHTICKS, 5)
end
end

storagevalues cannot hold letters right? so i cant do something along the lines of
setGlobalStorageValue(112233, 'Ownators')

and then i would have an npc make the levels of regen/meelee/dist/shield/light go up...

But... how do i apply the condition to "cid" and how do i apply how long the condition will last?

O, and for the guild_id... how do i make/edit a seperate file? so the guildmaster when he founds a guild would add to a file that
guild_id_1 = 'ownators'
guild_id_2 = 'devastators'
and so on as he creates guilds...

EvulMastah · Nov 24, 2008

doAddCondition(cid, condition)
setConditionParam(condition, CONDITION_PARAM_TICKS, time) -- 1000 = 1 second

Darkshadows · Nov 24, 2008

Ok, thanks for helping with that... 1 more thing though ;/

I got this...

logs = io.open("./data/logs/guilds.txt", "a")
logs:write("testing\n")
logs:close()
but i get an error saying
attempt to index global 'io' <a nil value>

how am i supposed to edit/retrieve info from a file?

dofile("./data/logs/guilds.txt")
but what would i have in the file to return a number based on guild??

something like this?..

HTML:

guilds = {['ownators'] = 1, ['devastators'] = 2}
if getPlayerGuildName(cid) == guilds[1] then
return 1
elseif getPlayerGuildName(cid) == guilds[2] then
return 2
end

? cept in that case i would have to make tons of [#] for new guilds

Edit:nm... got it

now i just need to edit the file...

HTML:

guilds.log
guilds = {['ownators'] = 1, ['devastators'] = 2}

HTML:

    dofile("./data/logs/guilds.log")
if guilds[getPlayerGuildName(cid)]~= nil then
guild_id = guilds[getPlayerGuildName(cid)]
end
doPlayerSay(cid, guild_id, 1)

Darkshadows · Nov 25, 2008

can any1 explain/help me with the 'io' part? I really need to be able to edit the file...
