is anyone able to let me know why this isnt working? Im trying to make a mod which removes sunday driver after a certain amount of time but it isnt removing the trait

`local ttr = 90

function CheckVehicle(player, vehicle, args)
local player = getSpecificPlayer(0)
if player:isDriving() and player:HasTrait("SundayDriver") then
ttr = ttr - 1
if ttr <= 0 then
player:RemoveTrait("SundayDriver")
end
end
end

Events.EveryOneMinute.Add(CheckVehicle)`

I'm having a very weird problem. I am modifying a recipe like so:

if modList:contains("86oshkoshP19A") then
    script:getRecipe("Make Side Spare Tire Mount"):setCategory("KI5")
...

which is loaded like so:

recipe Make Side Spare Tire Mount
{
BlowTorch=5,
keep WeldingMask,
SmallSheetMetal=4,
SheetMetal=4,
Screws=1,

Result:P19ASpareMount1_Item,
Time:750.0,
Category:P19A,
SkillRequired:MetalWelding=6,
OnGiveXP:Recipe.OnGiveXP.MetalWelding25,
}

But the game immediately gives me a null error. I'll pull it up in a bit

#

the previous lines work just fine, up until my lua script performs this line

#

it is IN the game, why is this happening

    dupeList[2]:setCategory("KI5")

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 5:51 AM

#

you want to use :get(), not [] and yeah, count from zero

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 5:51 AM

#

gotcha, thank you

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 5:52 AM

#

a useful snippet for that kind of thing is

for i = 0, array:size()-1 do
    local item = array:get(i)

end

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 5:52 AM

@red tiger you have a new client

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 6:15 AM

#

glass basalt hmmm, new problem: how do I get the first index of a Java Array? Will [0] work i...

getAllRecipesFor takes the name of an item, it finds all recipes that make that item

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:16 AM

#

why shouldn't getting each Recipe object by its index in the ArrayList not properly update then?

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 6:16 AM

#

it seems like you're putting in the name of a recipe, not the name of the result item

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:16 AM

#

ohhhhhhh shoot

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 6:17 AM

#

if you want to get all recipes by a certain name, i think all you can do is loop through the entire recipe list (if it fits your case, please just for that module), and check the name in the loop

obsidian pasture Mar 25, 2023, 6:17 AM

#

Sorry for question but how can i add an item inside a container (backpack) in lua.

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:17 AM

#

bronze yoke if you want to get all recipes by a certain name, i think all you can do is loop...

yeah i figured

#

my problem: some recipes are in Base

#

i think I will instead look for the result item, since most of these duplicate recipes are for one item but use different resources to craft

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 6:23 AM

#

you're trying to move all the recipes you're changing into the same category right? something like this might make things easier

local wantedRecipes = {
    ["Make M747 4 Tire Axle 1"] = true,
    ["Another Recipe Name"] = true,
}

local recipes = ScriptManager.instance:getAllRecipes()
for i = 0, recipes:size()-1 do
    local recipe = recipes:get(i)
    if wantedRecipes[recipe:getOriginalName()] then
        recipe:setCategory("KI5")
    end
end

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:24 AM

#

hmmmm pretty elaborate
I'll use this then, thank you again

#

i think instead of making the whole recipe list, ill append the recipes I want to that list so that the for loop runs faster

#

how is this?

local recipesToModify = {}

if modList:contains("67commando") then
    recipesToModify["Make Commando Viewport"] = true
...

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 6:34 AM

#

i actually have no idea if it's faster to check mod ids or not, so whichever works

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:35 AM

#

no, checking the mod ids will definitely slow it down, but in the case of a person only using one mod, their game won't have to consistently check for recipes that don't exist

#

clean code execution rather than speed ig

#

because the entire code operation is bloat
curse that KI5

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 6:35 AM

#

my guess is that not checking them and just having the entire table populated regardless would actually be faster

#

since :contains() is a java method, i would guess that any performance lost from having a bigger table to look the name up in would be made up for by how slow lua-java communication is - but it's pedantry, and it's not during gameplay so who cares

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:37 AM

#

hmm that's true

#

i also realized that some mods have the same recipes and making exclusions to check for multiple mods if they are enabled for one specific recipe is stupid

#

big fat masterlist it is

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:41 AM

#

bronze yoke you're trying to move all the recipes you're changing into the same category rig...

the method is getOriginalname() on the docs. is this right?
https://projectzomboid.com/modding/zombie/scripting/objects/Recipe.html#getOriginalname()

Recipe

declaration: package: zombie.scripting.objects, class: Recipe

bronze yoke Mar 25, 2023, 6:42 AM

#

ah, that's right

#

well, running that code on vanilla recipes only took my computer 1 millisecond (and it's only counting in milliseconds), so performance probably isn't a massive concern either way

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 6:51 AM

#

awesome, thanks for checking

#

i finished adding all the recipe names I have so far into the list. time to test it 😎

#

even code-monkeying the recipe list is easy. duplicate template, insert recipe name, continue

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 7:59 AM

#

Need some insight: I have a lot of mods and I don't like it tbh. Some are very specific that are basically tailored for myself, only public for others that might care. I would like to consolidate those specific mods into one "Miscellaneous Tweaks" mod that just includes everything. I would then document every change I have made in it, and give others permission to upload their own separate versions if they wish to do so.
Are there any flaws to this?

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 8:32 AM

#

you do not need that in a function

because then you are calling a function to call a function

just put the event function append at the bottom of your lua script

it'll auto load on start

made a few tweaks, and it finally worked thankyou!

#

last question, is there an event for when an item is picked up by the player? like, if it's grabbed and goes into the inventory

#

i am looking at the wiki and i dont see something like that

glass basalt Mar 25, 2023, 9:18 AM

#

odd fjord i am looking at the wiki and i dont see something like that

i didn't find one either. The closest things were the events related to filling the context menu, using what is in the player's inventory

#

You likely need to find what gives the ability to execute lua code when a specific item is picked up, using the item scripts

similar to Food type items using the OnEat field

this doesn't seem to work in MP

#

open drum ```lua getSoundManager():PlayWorldSound('pumpaction', getPlayer():getSquare(), 0...

because of getPlayer():getSquare()
getPlayer() only works on client & solo

you need a specific player, to play that sound on the server

Per player? Total?

old crescent Mar 25, 2023, 11:21 AM

#

per player

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 11:22 AM

#

Perhaps someone else has a better suggestion, but I think you'd need to store that information server-side. If OnPlayerDeath fires on the server you could use that to increment the appropriate counter and associate with the player (by username, presumably)

#

For SP it'd be more straightforward

old crescent Mar 25, 2023, 11:24 AM

where does the clients datas stores.. ??

ancient grail Mar 25, 2023, 11:25 AM

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 11:27 AM

I guess it's worth asking what the use case is first, actually

If it's only to display a total death count to the player you may design it differently

I'd personally still probably store it on the server

Maybe global moddata

old crescent Mar 25, 2023, 12:03 PM

#

My Idea is .. when a player dies, Ill disable the function of the respawn button(NEW CHARACTER) and modify its Text to "Respawn in mm:ss".

chrome egret Mar 25, 2023, 12:19 PM

#

Minus any server-side syncing you might want to do, you could simply override ISPostDeathUI to have the button disabled by default and enabled when the timer is finished.

neon bronze Mar 25, 2023, 1:01 PM

#

i would not advise overriding vanilla files since most mods utilize them as a backbone rather you could call a new Instance of PostDeathUI and call createChildren, there it makes the respawn button. Then you just grab the button and override its onClick function with yours

#

Or you overwrite the create children functiontbh

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 1:29 PM

#

Yeah, seems like an override would be appropriate. Could just grab a reference to the respawn button & change its text and disable it (after calling the original createChildren)

neon bronze Mar 25, 2023, 1:58 PM

#

and obviously renable it later when its needs to

#

you could do that with some events tbh although Ive no idea how much time they take

mod timedctions get thrown right in the middle of main loading not on the end when all the mod for client get loaded up

like all after vehicle...

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 3:19 PM

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 3:21 PM

That's true for all overrides of vanilla files afaik. I believe it loads all of the filenames before actually executing any of them

fast galleon Mar 25, 2023, 5:06 PM

#

this one mod I was editing was adding a type of 94741 or something, he only used it for batteries though.

that made them have special features like display tooltip conditions, naming, etc.

#

I think that I'm going to use block comments for now.

#

like VehicleType: 1 /* Standard */,

red tiger Mar 25, 2023, 5:36 PM

#

#

I don't like the look but it works for now.

#

My API:

VehicleType: {
    type: 'enum',
    values: {
        Standard: 1,
        HeavyDuty: 2,
        Sport: 3
    },
    description: `
    Types:
    - 1 = Standard
    - 2 = Heavy Duty
    - 3 = Sport
    `,
}

#

At least people can see what the value is. This will probably be useful for other properties. =/

#

One day I'll figure out how to do diagnostics so when the value 4 or something is placed, the editor will underline it with a warning.

#

Auto-gen description enum values & cleaner API. :D

#

        VehicleType: {
            type: 'enum',
            values: {
                1: 'Standard',
                2: 'HeavyDuty',
                3: 'Sport',

Being useful is sort of how my priority list works. xD

well i regularly patch and tweak existing items from other mods

as a server owner

so being able to in any fashion locate them quicker than going to the folder and doing a string search and then navigating to the path

that'd be lovely

Would you consider adding auto-formatting to your ZedScript plugin maybe? Just aligning the parameters would help with readability imo. i.e.

module Base {
    item Fisticuffs {
        DisplayName             = Bare Hands,
        DisplayCategory         = Weapon,
        SwingAmountBeforeImpact = 0.05,
        ...etc...               = value
    }
}

I technically already have a prototype, one for inline braces even.

#

Hahah

#

It's not in the extension though.

#

Do you want me to go ahead and take a look at that next?

dark wedge Mar 25, 2023, 10:20 PM

#

No need, I'm happy with knowing its a thing being done. haha. I don't have too many scripts going really, and what I do I formatted that way myself. Was just trying out your plugin, pitching an idea.

red tiger Mar 25, 2023, 10:20 PM

#

That prototype formatter alphanumerically sorts properties.

dark wedge Mar 25, 2023, 10:21 PM

#

that's handy. although, can that part be disabled? I am trying to keep parameters organized for my scripts. i.e. all things related to damage are in one section, range in another, keep order that way.

I never ping ppl, nothing ws saying done.. back... as for why extract the lua's because well unless I can see them normally not with special compiling means... kinda explains itself as I said Im starting to not trust the source.

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 10:58 PM

The .lua files are just stored as .lua files in the media subfolder of the game folder, so I'm a bit confused

I mean I could see them in game but I didnt think ya meant there.. and Im looking at the folder going wth... sighs

#

and get this... loading order on game load, isnt the same as game start...

#

ie when you see lua reloading when you load/start a game load order diffferent then when you just started it up.

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 11:04 PM

#

Possibly due to a discrepancy between mods you have enabled from the main menu vs mods enabled on a save

frank lintel Mar 25, 2023, 11:05 PM

#

they the same its just when and where when loading in... seems they get moved/changed a bit

#

Im trying to mentally picture if making a mod like superb... overall structure should look like what... global inits loading prefs first, methods etc, then main game/events after so on..

#

but then like we were talking about before those odd ones since they overwriting/adding to original lua stuff their load order totally different... how to plan on that etc

frank elbow Mar 25, 2023, 11:22 PM

#

I'd rewrite it to not overwrite them personally (if possible), but that's probably a significant undertaking

frank lintel Mar 25, 2023, 11:30 PM

well thats another thing but right now Im just trying to see if this thing's load ordering is just crap. I still have issues with options with it thats what I been working on.

it was simple too I did it on regexr webpage

([\s]*)(a string)([\s]*)(?=\n)

I think that should work.

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 12:48 AM

lemme see

red tiger Mar 26, 2023, 12:48 AM

First and third captures are any amount of whitespace.

#

The 4th capture is a positive lookahead to check for a new line.

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 12:49 AM

yeah this was even simpler then that something with start of line character and eol symbols?

#

now I cant find it

red tiger Mar 26, 2023, 12:49 AM

The 2nd capture is what you want to edit as a literal expression.

I'm giving you flexibility there with whitespacing.

Hi, i'm not a modder but i have a question.

In theory, would it be possible to make a mod that resets world props and assets to default outside of safehouses.
Scenario is this:
Me and my friends run a hosted server, they've gone wild and practically dismantled every piece of furniture, beds, lockers, kitchens, everything in the nearby city while i've dismantled hundreds of boxes and built walls and furnished a warehouse outside of town.

What i want is for safehouses to be left as is, with the loot in it, but everything outside of the safehouses to be reset.
***Just world assets like houses and furniture, the loot inside the furniture etc. ***
Also yeah, not affecting the time and date of the server or anything else like that.

I think the ability to do this would be very appreciated and I'm surprised it's not possible in the vanilla game seeing as dismantling furniture and loot containers is frowned upon on more open multiplayer servers.

#

You know what i mean?

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 1:26 AM

#

I just tried doing it the old school way of basically adding every single jar and class directory's by hand didnt seem to help.

#

as for your ? look into how the world gens think there something that let stuff refill automatic same with how many zombies keep respawning

keen beacon Mar 26, 2023, 1:29 AM

#

Yeah i know loot containers can have respawn enabled, but that's not what i'm talking about.

I'm talking about restoring the state of the houses in the world, reset the furniture, walls, doors etc, everything that a player might have disassembled or moved outside of the safehouse.

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 1:30 AM

#

again check inside the world gen stuff see if there something for that. otherwise dunno short of knowing where bases are and not wiping the save data and let it flat out regenerate them (if that even works...)

keen beacon Mar 26, 2023, 1:31 AM

some functions are executed right away by typing it's methods ex: addAllVehicles()
and some methods requires multiple methods pre-run , for example: getSoundManager():PlayWorldSound('MapOpen', getPlayer():getSquare(), 0, 5, 5, false);
some require classname.instance before it calls a method for example :VirtualZombieManager.instance:createHordeFromTo(X+50, Y, X, Y, 80)
lastly some require classname.new() method called before executing such as MyUI:new()

what's the difference and when do I know when to use what???

frank elbow Mar 26, 2023, 2:13 AM

#

The .instance ones generally have a single instance that (probably) remains the same. They're using the singleton pattern. Getting the instance allows you to execute instance methods

#

As for :new(), that's a similar answer to the "using directly" thing and the "creating an instance" idea. You're creating an instance of something so you can use it

In the annotations. I exported them all, wrote a quick python script to fix some stuff, then did a few manual aliases (String to string, int to integer, double & float to number, stuff like that)

It has to do with static vs instance methods. Java classes can have methods that belong to the class as a whole & are called on the class and instance methods that can be called on instances. To be able to call those instance methods, we need a reference to an instance

since getPlayer() is instance method

getPlayer() is static (global in Lua, since it's exposed as a global); getSquare() on IsoPlayer is an instance method

This is referred to as "Singleton" or "Instanced" approach. (Singleton is different. This is more instanced)

but that was just something I noticed offhand while roaming about the java classes. this is what Im trying to muddle thru right now. https://github.com/Sycholic/Superb-Survivors/blob/main/client/5_UI/SuperSurvivorOptions.lua

GitHub

Superb-Survivors/SuperSurvivorOptions.lua at main · Sycholic/Superb...

SSR aka Superb Survivors github is not being kept up to date. Bringing source up to date of current release game ver 41.78 This is not offical just attempt to update github to current the current...

#

eg, lines 15-27 replaced with this... elseif (option == "SpawnRate") then local r_local = {0, 64000, 32000, 26000, 20000, 16000, 12000, 8000, 4000, 2500, 1000, 400} return (r_local[num] or -1) and in the few other places that had > a few settings/values to get

#

I originally just change it to check the option only first then do the ifs for num values but then realized didnt even need'm

fast galleon Mar 26, 2023, 12:23 PM

#

options = {lock=1, spawn=2} etc

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 12:24 PM

#

I was thinking of that also but seeing it just returns num if it matches nothing I held off on that till I figure out why it was done that way.

#

and btw can you write booleans to a text file and read it cuz Im wondering why they didnt use bools for any on/enabled off/disabled options

fast galleon Mar 26, 2023, 12:27 PM

#

just need to translate it when read file

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 12:27 PM

#

I mean they are but a math sense but they then playing with the values cuz the buttons start at 1? I guess...

#

but then mixing it up on how? like look at "Findwork" and "RoleplayMessage' logic... ?o.O?

fast galleon Mar 26, 2023, 12:30 PM

#

oh is this function for reading the file or for in-game use?

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 12:30 PM

#

file options to load up

#

mod settings which I also gotta fix/change cuz it dont save it per save but as a global pref...

#

but yeah why I was ranting last night about filereader in my IDE crying my " " wasnt a string cuz its expecting a String... lol

#

oh which I fixed I just had to replace all the annotations lulz

fast galleon Mar 26, 2023, 12:32 PM

#

random idea for Boolean, write only if it's true.

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 12:33 PM

#

I think they using a minimal method in the storage I need to like get the full list of options and look at that

#

I just got irked seeing that mass of IF's like that esp like we talking 12 logic checks of something you know has to be true... after the first one.

#

I first changed it to just a elseif(option == "SpawnRate") then but then realized well shit why not just iterate thru a list (or in lua case table...)

#

I dunno just seems cleaner this way and also now incase someone hand modifies their options file to something out of range I can catch that :)

Hey there, fellow survivors! 🧟

I'm excited to announce that I've just published my very first mod for Project Zomboid - the "Rehydrated Meat" mod! This mod allows you to transform dried meat into tender, delicious meals that will make your survival experience even better.

I want to give a massive shoutout and thank you to @viscid kelp , who helped me with the translation files. Your assistance made this mod possible! 🙌

I would really appreciate it if you could give my mod a try and let me know what you think. Your feedback will help me improve and create even more awesome mods in the future.

Heh. Thanks for starring my events repo.

So much to do..

#

I just got my deep-parser hooked up to the extension code. Will need to improve the tokenizer to tokenize empty lines.

#

It's a very aggressive formatter since the code I hook into actually generates ZedScript.

#

Here's what it currently does to camping.txt..

Have you tried printing just math.pi? It should be present, looking at the source

frank lintel Mar 26, 2023, 5:17 PM

#

hmm odd

#

well that worked I was using say so I can actually read it cuz console goes its own size... but anyhoot seems it uses what java does as well so that answered my Q

This got me poking around at Kahlua's stdlib implementations & apparently there's some extra table functions

#

table.newarray for a table that behaves like an array. neat (+ table.isempty, table.wipe, and table.pairs which is the same function as pairs)

#

well I need to update EmmyLua's constants apparently

#

cuz Emmy thinks PI is 3.1415 and thats it lol

#

math.pi = 3.1415```
taken from EmmLua 5.1 plugin math.lua

Tweaking the skill progress UI to add more clarity for my own sanity with dealing with skill recovery journal users

Fortunately I was able to just use gsub in a function decoration

Worried that people will think the formatter will be broken if / when they use it with broken scripts.

#

Diagnostics are a must. =/

Howdy, I've been looking online and around this discord, but I couldn't find anything regarding this,
Would it be possible to disable certain tiles from being destroyable with a sledgehammer, potentially replacing the tool required for those tiles?

#

I think it was @ancient grail that posted an example of just that earlier today (so he'd know)

#

Yeah, see #mod_development message

        BaseSpeed = 1,
        WeaponLength = 0.3,
        DamageCategory = Slash,
        DamageMakeHole = TRUE,
        TwoHandWeapon = TRUE,
        WeaponLength = 0.4,
        AttachmentType = BigBlade,
