How do I use the chip "player get profile image" with rrs

[deft ridge]

So basically in my game I'm gonna have a list which displays a players status if they're dead or alive. I figured that part out.
But now I want it to display their profile next to their name with rrs.
Does anyone know how I can do this. Also I have a fair ammout of knowledge with rrs already.

Studio Functions i’m assuming

[deft ridge]

alr

Anything else?

[livid cape]

you also need to use the recnet image componetn for the image to live in

dont make the mistake of having the unity image compoent and the recnet image component on the same object because unity will complain about that

[deft ridge]

Ik that

[deft ridge]

How do I get this in rrs

Do I create an empty canvas?

[signal karma]

its a component/script

you add it to an object

[deft ridge]

oh so i create a canvas and then add it?
how would i do that???????

not the canvas part, the component part

[deft ridge]

Ok do I click the component tab in the white bar at the very top?

Or just right click on a canvas

[livid cape]

you will need to add the component in the inspector to the desired object

just be sure to not have any other components that do the same job as the recnet image component (that being a graphical ui component)

[deft ridge]

Ah

Ok then after that do I just upload it?

[livid cape]

not quite yet

you still need to have a way to set the image on it

for that you will need to create a new studio function

[deft ridge]

Hold on let me get into rrs so I can do this rq

[deft ridge]

ok im in

@livid cape

[livid cape]

so, create the component where you desire the pfp to be

then create a new studio function that will set the image on it to a recnet image input

[deft ridge]

studio function?

whats a studio function?💔

[livid cape]

https://docs.alexagirl.studio/docs/cv2instudio/studiofunctions

[deft ridge]

love u

[deft ridge]

Ok i did everything, gave it the inputs, all the stuff.
Is that all?

I've already uploaded it btw

[livid cape]

did you test it in-game first before uploading?

[deft ridge]

😬

surely it doesn't matter right?

[livid cape]

if you dont have rr+ and need to upload alot then that will be a problem

[deft ridge]

wdym?

I've already uploaded

[livid cape]

you have a limited amount of builds per day without rr+

[deft ridge]

oh no worries

It should work now tho?

[livid cape]

if you did things right yes

[deft ridge]

ok so I have a display, and the target its displaying on is the canvas.
I have a player system where a player joins it'll display their name, and pfp.

idk if using a canvas works bc pressing the execution doesn't work omds😑

[livid cape]

image of how youve setup the studio function and the hierarchy please

[deft ridge]

hierarchy?

[livid cape]

the thing that has all the objects in it in a big list

[deft ridge]

Ohhhhh

I can't rn I'm on mobile

But the canvas is a rr object and the function has a method set up along with the correct input

[deft ridge]

what about it tho

[livid cape]

just incase

also where is the image object in that hierarchy?

[deft ridge]

It's the canvas

[livid cape]

no i mean a separate object that is a child of the canvas

[deft ridge]

I added a rec net component to it

[deft ridge]

Ohhh

I don't think I made a child.

[livid cape]

you should

[deft ridge]

that might be why

[deft ridge]

So once I create the child I'm done?

[livid cape]

yeah i believe so

[deft ridge]

ok so I just remove the thing on the parent and replicate that on the child?

by thing I mean component

[livid cape]

yeah, remove the recnet image component from the one that has the canvas component and move that to be a child

[deft ridge]

alr easy enough

ima let u know if it works

tommorow🤑🙏

[deft ridge]

@livid cape it works

It's just not synced

only room authority can see it💔🙏

[livid cape]

you must sync it manually with event receivers, senders, and definitions

[deft ridge]

rrs?

Or the ones in rr

[livid cape]

rr

[deft ridge]

Alr so I just add a player definition or wut?

Or is there a rrs thingy majigger

[livid cape]

for what?

[deft ridge]

The player definition

Ik how to use them

It's just what do i select is what I'm confused about

[livid cape]

you need the event definition

[deft ridge]

yee

[livid cape]

i never brought up the player definition board

[deft ridge]

Oh mb typo

So all 3 of the events or just 2

definition and reciever

[livid cape]

you need all of those chips

[deft ridge]

Ah

Just realized that was a stupid question

[livid cape]

the definition so you can send an event in the first place, sender to send that event with, and a receiver to actually listen to the event and then do stuff accordingly

[deft ridge]

yuzz

ok so for the definition I just select player or is there a secret

[livid cape]

if you need everyone to see the same thing then you will need the target to be all

you also need to add a player property to the event definition

[deft ridge]

ye ik

[deft ridge]

with event sender right?

[livid cape]

obviously

its the only chip of the three that have that config option

[deft ridge]

heh😏

silly me

when I'm done setting ts (this)💔 up what do I hook it up with

[livid cape]

to close it off the event receiver will use the created studio function to set the image to be that of the given player

[deft ridge]

ah

so I just hook up the event sender with what originally was hooked up to the function?

[livid cape]

yes

[deft ridge]

Then it'll automatically execute the reciever got it🙏

[livid cape]

do note that you will have to sync this manually for late joiners (late joiner = a player joining the instance after some event has already happened)

[deft ridge]

oh u mean when someone joins after like the game starts?

[livid cape]

not just when the game starts

at any point after the event had happened

[deft ridge]

Eh

I should be fine

They need to enter a trigger for it to display their stats and profile

So I think I'll be ok

I'll let u know if it works

[deft ridge]

@livid cape what do i do with the player inputs and outputs

Do I just leave it as is?

[livid cape]

you will need that for the chip that gets the pfp

[deft ridge]

Oh so I hook up my room index player with the event sender right?

[livid cape]

well if your stuff is room index based sure

[deft ridge]

Alr do I clone the recievers and senders or do I need just one

[livid cape]

you only need one receiver

[deft ridge]

and clone the senders

[livid cape]

wherever you need them sure

[deft ridge]

Alr

So if I did it right, the event senders are hooked up to the room index get player and the senders have their outputs connected to the rrs function and one event reciever with only the player output hooked up

[livid cape]

may i have a screenshot?

[deft ridge]

uh

my curcuits r a bit messy

[livid cape]

still, i would like to see with my own eyes that youve done it correctly and point out mistakes that need fixing

[deft ridge]

Alr

@livid cape

[livid cape]

that room index get player is a redundant conversion when you can already get the player directly

[deft ridge]

wdym

[livid cape]

youre converting a player to a room index and then back to a player

a little wasteful no?

[deft ridge]

eh idk

[deft ridge]

I wanted it to make sure that it knows who the 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th player are

[livid cape]

theres really no point in that when you get the room index from the player

[deft ridge]

oh

so I can just hook up the player joined directly to what I had the room index get player hooked up to?

[livid cape]

yes

[deft ridge]

@livid cape it works ty papa

Now...

How would I make a display that shows everyone a players pov

Using player forward camera or sum like tht

[livid cape]

camera + render texture

[deft ridge]

I KNEW IT

completely forgot the texture I'm so dumbbb😭

do u know any tutorials I can follow i don't feel like doing ts

[livid cape]

just google any unity tutorial for that

[deft ridge]

k

[urban vine]

You can also use the Room Index Get Player chip

Or use Get All Players because I think that list outputs the order of players

[deft ridge]

No

you would need a list get element

it's not random it forms it's own list from whoever recently joins

and I would have to change that element from 0 to 3
( rr elements don't really make sense bc player 1 is technically player 0 soooo yeah)

[gilded mortar]

Because computers start counting from 0, not 1. It’s not exclusive to rr.

[mossy iron]

Not if I add 1 to the start of it and use that as context!

[deft ridge]

I'm 13 dawg take it easy😭🙏

[urban vine]

13 is the perfect age to learn this shi

I didn’t start getting like decent at circuits until I was 14/15

[deft ridge]

Ye ik I've been doing it for a year I'm already great at it I just don't know any ai at all

And I'm learning rrs

[urban vine]

You don’t need to worry about AI

It’s good to learn RR AI

But you won’t need to know actual AI

[deft ridge]

no ik this but I'm making a game so I kinda do

And tutorials can work

[urban vine]

No

[deft ridge]

But rr keeps updating the way ai works

So eventually they dont🤪

[urban vine]

Are you using goblin AI

[deft ridge]

Yuzz💔🙏

[urban vine]

Oh that’s not what I was talking about lol

[deft ridge]

ouh

[urban vine]

Dijkstra and A* 🥲

[mossy iron]

Me when pathfinder

[urban vine]

Still need to learn

That too

[mossy iron]

Do this entire complicated logic detection system to make custom AI

Or

Pathfinder go brr

[urban vine]

I still wanna learn it but it already takes an advanced Circuiteer to teach you

And finding one that wants to dedicate time is even harder

[deft ridge]

I hate 2.0

It's a shame rr now only does things for 2.0 but not our og rooms😔

[mossy iron]

It’s a shame people still refuse to realise how advanced 2.0 is

[charred tinsel]

rooms 2.0 is amazing but apparently the building inside is bugged

[mossy iron]

honestly at the rate rooms2 has been getting fixed recently, give it some time and it’ll be pure gold to use

I’ve noticed issues tend to arise when building with multiple people, although I tend to build solo and haven’t found much issues

seems most issues are relating to multiplayer

[charred tinsel]

literally trying spending the whole month of march just dropping rooms 2.0 games

[charred tinsel]

yeah that especially

[mossy iron]

All I know is I have 1080 weapon models stored in rooms2 with 0 frame drops even on mobile, rooms1 can’t do that lol

[deft ridge]

I'm not dumb

But I did things in rooms before 2.0 and I've already accumulated a decent amount of visits so I'm not importing subrooms

Now rr can't fix shit in regular rr rooms

Even text is bugged which is a huge inconvenience

[mossy iron]

Is text being bugged making your room unplayable?

[deft ridge]

Yuzz💔

Bc it's not neoning.

Which makes it look coel😭✌️💔

[mossy iron]

if you rely on cool factor for text, I think there’s bigger issues at hand than the text not being neon

but that’s just my own view I suppose

What would I know anyways, I don’t build

[deft ridge]

Precisely!

Builders r struggling out here mane💔🙏

[deft ridge]

The sync didn't wurk😭

@livid cape

[livid cape]

let me guess players that join dont see it?

[deft ridge]

Yes

wait

bc it's synced now I just need to check and make sure it works for new joiners

[deft ridge]

@livid cape nvm it works tyyyyy

I just wired it wrong

[deft ridge]

@livid cape now it just displays it for all the empty spots and when a new player joins itll do the same thing

I hate my life

[livid cape]

what

[deft ridge]

when the display gets activated, it displays for all of the empty slots.
Then if someone else triggers it, itll also overwrite everything.

At least its synced

[livid cape]

the trick here is to use a switch in the function to set the image of only one recnet image component at a time

[deft ridge]

execution integer switch?

[livid cape]

no, in the studio function itself

[deft ridge]

no the curcuits are hooked up to a event reciever which is set to the event senders status

And the event sender itself is hooked up to a execution integer switch

[livid cape]

yeah but how are you gonna set them individually?

do you have separate studio functions that sets one of them or have a switch in the studio function that sets only one of them depending on the index?

[deft ridge]

Ye I have 4 canvases and 4 functions

Theres an integer switch that all goes to one sender

[livid cape]

lets see the studio functions then

[deft ridge]

And that one sender goes to all recievers

Okie

ima take a pic rq

[deft ridge]

@livid cape it works ty for the help!
