you put more objects in your frames array

or provide a single png file with them all and use w and count attributes

cedar stone Jul 22, 2022, 9:37 PM

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

▪︎ Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.

Alternatively, you can access the files through in-built TheoTown file manager, accessible through the in-game menu.

You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

@tropic drift what are you using to transfer them?

eternal lake Jul 26, 2022, 3:09 PM

#

add more images in your frames array

#

either with "w" and "count" or with simply additional objects

eternal lake Jul 26, 2022, 3:34 PM

#

that depends on how your frames look like

#

if they are separated into multiple files all you have to do is add a new object to your frames

#

[{},{}]

eternal lake Jul 26, 2022, 6:44 PM

#

how am I supposed to help

#

i need your code

#

i told you tp create a new object, not both

#

remove the inner square brackets

#

those arent square brackets

#

'..]..[..'

#

and the comma as well

#

give it back!!!

#

put the comma you have removed back in the spot it used to be in

#

your objects have to be separated

#

not the best formatting but it will work just as fine

#

it doesn't have to

#

look for it in the category you have put it into

#

would be residential in this case

How are they suposed to save? As .plugin or .json? I think this hapend because the files containd pictires and text, and they didn't came separeted in a folder, like other plugins do.

grand spruce Jul 27, 2022, 5:10 AM

If they are just in files, then they should just port over as files

Regardless of if they're .plugins .zips or .mpf

if you set the category to something else it will obviously go there instead of the default category

you can put categories in categories though

nested categories?

in the same way you would put a building into a category

use debug mode or download original json files from the forums to get the category's id

rocky geode Idk what's wrong with this

that because when you delete the first gui object, the last child count isnot "c" anymore.

there are 3 solutions:

use repeat:

repeat
  gui:getChild(1):delete()
until gui:getChild(1) == nil

or use while:

while true do
  if gui:getChild(1) == nil then
    break
  end
  gui:getChild(1):delete()
end

or reverse the loop:

local c = gui:countChildren()
for i=c, 1, -1 do
  gui:getChild(i):delete()
end

#

it's not enclosed in an array

#

also I have no idea where is it supposed to separate

#

because it doesn't anywhere

#

put square brackets around the whole json and separate it into 3 objects (because that's the number I guess you're trying to get)

main jasper Aug 19, 2022, 10:08 AM

#

Incase those didn't work, I guess I have to separate the night animation and the original one then... 😕

eternal lake Aug 19, 2022, 10:08 AM

#

not sure what do you mean by that

main jasper Aug 19, 2022, 10:11 AM

#

This. The non-highlighted one is the code that my plugin is currently use. While the highlighted one is the night animation to be use in the next update of my plugin.

eternal lake Aug 19, 2022, 10:12 AM

#

all you have to do is fix your objects and arrays

#

it can stay in the same json

#

also, why are you defining the same building twice

main jasper Aug 19, 2022, 10:13 AM

#

the highlighted one? I find that code in forums.

eternal lake Aug 19, 2022, 10:14 AM

#

you have two police buildings that use the same id

#

and the second building (the lower one) is missing several attributes

#

if you're trying to define just a single building with a night animation the code is very wrong, please reread the animation tutorials

main jasper Aug 19, 2022, 10:21 AM

#

so the night animation frame in highlighted code must have individual ID?

eternal lake Aug 19, 2022, 10:22 AM

#

each thing has to have a separate id, that's why attributes like override or inherit exist

#

also animations have to be defined before they are used, so move it to the top of your json

main jasper Aug 19, 2022, 10:24 AM

#

OK got it. Thank you.

#

you defined an animation and put another animation inside it

#

while that's possible, why would you do that, especially if you don't have "dense1police1station" defined

#

also, some of those attributes aren't designed for animation type

#

please read the actual tutorial, it's not that hard to find it

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

▪︎ Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.

Alternatively, you can access the files through in-built TheoTown file manager, accessible through the in-game menu.

You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

Why sometimes category attribute for a template draft works sometimes not, i have 3 drafts and referenced a template with a category attribute only 1 among the 3 indexed inside the category

hollow flax Sep 25, 2022, 4:06 PM

#

make sure to load the category first.

rocky geode Sep 25, 2022, 4:12 PM

Yes it's loaded first

I can't make the night animation to work, idk what im doing wrong here

📎 schcom1.json

#

The building frame and the night anim frame are also the same size, so they should align

charred harness Sep 27, 2022, 1:38 PM

The preview is also unusually placed

charred harness Sep 29, 2022, 11:17 AM

#

Its probably already pinned somewhere

#

Also quick question, how do you add random frames and how do they work?

#

Do they still work if you use manual building?

hexed coral Sep 29, 2022, 4:19 PM

#

first, your quotation marks are wrong

#

second, folders are not files, they dont have an extension

#

so it should be {"bmp":"0 clock/h12.png"}, afaik

flat sonnet Sep 29, 2022, 4:20 PM

{"bmp":"0clock".folder"h12.png"},
