Wait @pseudo nymph this also happens if there's a oneway road and the cars can't reach its target
#plugin-support
rocky geode
pseudo nymph
It is not one way road I looked at it also tried using only 1 station but nope didn't worked
@hot shoal hello, is your cable car working or you are not anymore sure about it?
@rocky geode you are the guy who made monorail, right? If you can, you should make a cable car plugin too I guess. Variety of plugins aren't a bad thing
pseudo nymph
Hmm
Yeah I know
But anyway, the way that plugin is made is not allowing us to make a glass station build then
It is modular in fact
eternal lake
why not?
pseudo nymph
Because you will only need to use one piece of whole station build and it is a part of whole build
I need to get on pc to show it
There are total 8 stations
Also look at red place, it looks empty
grand spruce
I'd like you to take the extra time to make extra end pieces that aren't needed and would only take up more plugin space
pseudo nymph
There is an end piece
eternal lake
then what's the problem??
pseudo nymph
Didnt use it
grand spruce
That sounds like your fault more than the makers
pseudo nymph
I am not saying plugin is bad I love it
The topic just went somewhere else
The actual problem is cable car doesnt exits
The one I mentioned is a texture "thing" but still an inside would be good
hot shoal
@pseudo nymph yes it works
The part you said is empty, is because you can buils more cable from there in order to continue the layout
Is not necessary to be an "ending" station
pseudo nymph
@hot shoal but my car isn't going outside. How will I make it work?
hot shoal
You mean it doesn't spawn cars?
pseudo nymph
It spawns but just drives inside station
hot shoal
Ok, give me some minutes, and I'll explain to you
pseudo nymph
mhm
@hot shoal I just tested it in random map and it worked but strange thing is it is not working in the map I want
hot shoal
The first pic is working as an end to end layout
But the second one goes around the layout non-stop
pseudo nymph
mhm
hot shoal
As you can see, cars are spawning regularly
pseudo nymph
yep
let me show you mine
It is not spawning, all roads connected tho
@hot shoal
hot shoal
Please, stop pinging, I'm reading you
pseudo nymph
ah I am soo sorry
hot shoal
Maybe they are not well connected
pseudo nymph
I will check again, but I am sure they are
hot shoal
Try to leave a straight gap before the slope
hot shoal
Check the height
hot shoal
If it still doesn't work, try doing again
hot shoal
I am doing 5 height to connect it with tower(?)
I mean the height when connecting to the station
pseudo nymph
nope didn't work, sorry
it is 1 height at station, same as it
Don't mind it montemarino, your plugin is great. I can play without its spawning cars. Thanks for your attempt to help me
hot shoal
Sorry, I don't know what's wrong with your plugin, but it should work correctly. As I said, try to do it again

That's nice, thank you for the help. now let me see how I can use them in my plugin :)

With fun, condition rotation 0 or 1, action build draft for rotation 2 and 3. Condition rotation 2 or 3, action build draft for rotation 0 and 1.

I'm not sure. there are on click fun for manually build other rotations and it's intersection so all 4 rotation needs to be different build

I recommend not using require during development, use it when the script is finished. You can write functions, variables or anything according to the format of the module, to make it easier to separate the script into modules.
terse void
probably a good idea
restarting every change is getting annoying
hmm
so i got ```lua
storage = Util.optStorage(TheoTown.getStorage(), '$onInterval', {index = 0, registeredFunctions = 0, functions = {}})
but for some reason registeredFunctions is still null

You mean nil?
hollow flax
Try to use the function to refresh the storage value
local function getStorage()
return Util.optStorage(TheoTown.getStorage(), 'id')

well i can register functions fine now
they just dont get run

Oh yes i forgot to add check if there's an active loan
steel verge
That postpones function execution
rocky geode
That's same as excute delay
steel verge
That's not what he's trying to do
rocky geode
If you put it under script:update
steel verge
He wants to run a function every 5 seconds for example
exotic scarab
So you mean we can also script our plugins in Python?
We can in C++?
steel verge
What if I told you JVM is written in C++?
hollow flax
Run a function every 5 seconds?
local smth = true
local offset = 0
function script:update()
if City then
if smth and offset < 10 then
smth = false
Runtime.postpone(function()
Debug.toast('Toasted')
smth = true
offset = offset + 1
end, 5000)
end
end
end```
i suspect runtime.postpone is gonna have quite a performance impact when called often though
steel verge
It uses runnable
Which creates a thread
Which operation is very expensive in Java
Like humougously expensive
terse void
yeah i suspected something like that
id rather just use runtime.gettime to keep track of how much time has elapsed
steel verge
inb4 runtime.gettime creates new runnable to get time

well that sounds like your problem

Looked into it more
It gets put into function list that get executed at the end of the frame

uneven marlin
Alright, i need some help rn.
As you guys know, i am working on a train expansion plugin.
However i reused a lot one of the train depot textures i made, and i would like, instead of having dozen of identical depots, to have just one texture in a folder i can "steal" for the others.
eternal lake
pretty sure you can use "steal" for that
eternal lake
no idea, never tried, probably something like animations
eternal lake
no idea
uneven marlin
well, i guess i gotta have to do some testing.
eternal lake
probably you can use it the same way for preview frames
uneven marlin
i guess so.
pseudo nymph
I used it in older version of 1x1 suburbs zone
uneven marlin
do you have a json sample that could help me ?
pseudo nymph
Sure, but it just uses a frame. It doesn't steals animations of that texture tho
Which buildimg you are going to use?
uneven marlin
Basically
until now, all trains had their own depot texture
which is basically the same for all
in order to optimise plugin space, i wanted to have a single depot texture that would be "stolen" by all others trains depots instead of each having its own.
pseudo nymph
This one should have it
You can also find the building you want from this
If you want them with their night frames and animations
uneven marlin
thanks.
wait, does the "steal" work for night-frames & animations too ?
not that i would need it for night-frames & animations tho.
since it works already.
pseudo nymph
Steal just uses the base frame and nothing else
pseudo nymph
I don't really know that
uneven marlin
well, i guess i'll have to experiment
well, first thing i notice is that it isn't compatible with upgrades
so depots will not be able to be rotated..
pseudo nymph
You need to add count or rotation aware to them
uneven marlin
well count was added
and rotation aware as well
but it didnt work, likely due to the "steal" texture in use.
pseudo nymph
Hmm
You should copy the code from JSON resources I think
That would be more accurate
uneven marlin
i checked it
and my plugin is kinda the first to do so.
I posted a topic on the forum
but i also got other ideas in case it doesnt work
like using fences for "rotation aware" depots
eternal lake
wait, are the graphics the same?
uneven marlin
wdym ?
eternal lake
if yes, why don't you just use "frames":[{png}]
so you want multiple different buildings that all look the same but have a different purpose?
eternal lake
ah
uneven marlin
it would be too much of an hassle for me :/
right now, the main idea i have is to have an 1x1 "depot" block
fully modulable
with fences being used for outside props
basically just like this
except it would have custom "fences / wall" that mimic the warehouse gate, walls or some "wall props"
well i think it would be the best idea
much more modularity
steel verge
just steal the textures
uneven marlin
yes it's how i'll do it.

yesa
-- We define the local variable for our settings table here so that our functions can see it
local settings
function script:init()
-- Let's get a storage table and initialize values that are nil
settings = Util.optStorage(TheoTown.getStorage(), self:getDraft():getId()..':settings')
settings.someBool = settings.someBool == nil and true or settings.someBool
settings.someInt = settings.someInt or 1
settings.someNamedInt = settings.someNamedInt or 3
settings.someString = settings.someString or 'Xyz'
settings.someGenericText = settings.someGenericText or 'Hello World'
end
thse values will automatically be saved

almost
function script:init()

"zone radius" attribute probably
steel verge
It's an integer attribute for zone draft
vivid totem
Ok so I would do this in lua:
local z = Draft.getDraft(myzond)
and in json
“zone radius”: z
steel verge
Ah
I was referring to the draft as an object
Draft is basically the JSON object that gets converted to game object
In this case
I was talking about your zone definition
vivid totem
I’m sorry I’m a bit confused could you give me an example?
steel verge
// Your zone definition
{
"id":"$myepiczone",
//other attributes
"radius":2 //sets zone radius
}
ok and how does this affect the zone radius tag?
vivid totem
Yes but lets say I want my residential surrounded by a specific zone, then what do I put after the “zone radius” tag. The code you put above?
steel verge
Ah, it can only be surrounded by it's own zone
vivid totem
Oh so buildings cant be surrounded?
steel verge
Are you using custom zone and custom buildings?
vivid totem
Yes

Ok I already asked this question yesterday however its was really late and I think I got too confused to get, what was explained to me. So here is the same question with a better explanation what I want to do:
I saw that the military and airport buildings automatically place zones around them,(I will post a picture below) and I was wondering if it is possible to achieve the same thing in my plugin.
I have two json files right now one for the zone (zone.json) and one for the road (road.json). I want the road to be surrounded by my custom zone.
(Again I will post the code of both below)
What do I write in my Road file and what in the zone file. If possible could some body write what I have to add?
I hope somebody is willing to help, this would really help with my plugin.
How it works for military stuff
The code of the files
vivid totem
? This is not really solving my problem, I already put „radius“:2 in my zone file and „zone“:“myid“ in the road json but it does not create a radius
hollow flax
maybe use json fun or lua
vivid totem
so its not possible with a tag?

Probably something only available to base game drafts
