How to save table entries into savegame

  • #1, by PanS 7 years ago Zitieren
    Hi,

    I created a simple function to randomize a shoe counter. Everytime the player steps into a special room a sitting character has differnt shoes. Every pair of shoes is shown once. The function works fine but of course the current table entries wont be saved. Do you have an idear?

    local tShoes = {"one", "two", "three", "four", "five", "six", "seven", "eight", "nine", "ten"}

function randomShoes()

  if Conditions["cond_no_more_shoes"].ConditionValue == false then

    local shoeNum = math.random(1, #(tShoes))

    print('shoe index number '..shoeNum..' is called: '..tShoes[shoeNum])
    print('max numbers of shoes: '..#(tShoes))
    
    if #(tShoes) <= 1 then
      Conditions["cond_no_more_shoes"].ConditionValue = true
      print('the shoe seller has nothing left in stock')
    end
    
    table.remove(tShoes, shoeNum)
  end
  
end

    2 options:
    - serialize the missing parts into a value / condition (e.g.  value | 2^9)
    - make the table global

    Thx. Making the table global is the easiest way. Is there a disadvantage for this option?

    Hm.. Could be possible that it won't remove the table entries, you would need to check, also changes in the ved will be overwritten by old savegames.

    Indeed. This option produces a strange behavior. When I start the game (from Editor) and load the savegame the table has all entries (10). But when I start the game and play aslong the table entries are less then in the savegame (7 entries) it loads the correct number. Seems the game only filled the table with the loaded one from the savegame.

    So maybe I have to clear the table completly before loading a savegame, right?

    Thats my full script working perfectly so far.

    Thx for your help!

    --this randomize fabians shoes
tShoes = {"1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10"}
local cNoShoes = Conditions["cond_no_more_shoes"]
local vShoeCounter = Characters["char_fabian"].Values["count_fabians_shoes"]

function randomShoes()
  if cNoShoes.ConditionValue == false then
    if #(tShoes) >= 1 then
  
      local shoeNum = math.random(1, #(tShoes))
  
      print('shoe index number '..shoeNum..' is called: '..tShoes[shoeNum])
      print('max numbers of shoes: '..#(tShoes))
      
      vShoeCounter.Int = tonumber(tShoes[shoeNum])
      
      table.remove(tShoes, shoeNum)    
    else
      cNoShoes.ConditionValue = true
      print('the shoe seller has nothing left in stock')
    end  
  end
end

--clears shoe table before load a savegame
function clearShoeTable()
  tShoes = {}
  print('the shoe table has '..#(tShoes)..' entries')
end

--play the correct animation when showing scene
function playShoesAnimation()
  local numShoes = vShoeCounter.Int
  if numShoes <= 42 and cNoShoes.ConditionValue == false then
    startAnimation("Scenes[room_03_lounge].Objects[set_fabian_legs].Animations[shoes_"..numShoes.."]")
    print('play animation shoes_'..numShoes)
  end
end
