yo how would I do relational placeholders with deluxemenus? It doesn't seem to work

lusty copper
#

that's because relational placeholders require a second player, and in DeluxeMenus, you only have 1 player, the one that views the menu

upbeat jackal
#

hmm Adam said DeluxeMenus supports it idk

lusty copper
#

it supports PAPI placeholders, but not relational ones

upbeat jackal
#

hmm i searched up relational placeholders for deluxemenus and I saw this search result so that's why I was wondering

lusty copper
#

well DM only receives 1 player, so I don't see how it would work

#

what are you trying to do?

upbeat jackal
#

well the relational one for factions just shows the color based off the enemies's status to you, so if I enemy them the faction color just turns red

lusty copper
#

oh, you're making a list in DeluxeMenus and want the rel color?

#

do you have a placeholder to retrieve the player name?

#

I could try to add a way to make this work with my Utils expansion

upbeat jackal
#

uhh I'm not sure, all I'm putting is %rel_factionsuuid_relation_color%%factionsuuid_faction_name%

#

like relational color, than the faction name

lusty copper
#

that'll do

#

I'll come back with smth in a few minutes

#

download this, put it in your Expansions folder in your PAPI folder

#

and use %utils_parserel:[<player>]_rel_factionsuuid_relation_color%

upbeat jackal
#

hmm so something like this?
%utils_parserel:[<player>]_rel_factionsuuid_relation_color%%factionsuuid_faction_name%

lusty copper
#

isn't %factionsuuid_faction_name% just the name of the player's faction?

upbeat jackal
#

yeah

lusty copper
#

that won't work then

#

I need a player name

#

PAPI only supports players

upbeat jackal
#

there's %factionsuuid_player_name% that has the player's name

#

do I put it inside <player>?

lusty copper
#

yeah but it's the name of the player looking at the placeholder

#

so it's not really useful

#

since you're making a faction top, I can't do anything about it

upbeat jackal
#

hmm I gotchu, it's all good I appreciate the help so far :)
