ok so first off
youd have a sound draft for your audio file like ```json
{
"id":"bluepickle.plugin.meme.song",
"type":"sound",
"file":"file.mp3",
"volume":1.0
},
and code would be ```lua
local bx, by, buildingDraft, songDraft
function script:init()
buildingDraft = Draft.getDraft("bluepickle.plugin.meme.building00")
songDraft = Draft.getDraft("bluepickle.plugin.meme.song")
end
function script:event(x,y,level,event)
if event == Script.EVENT_REMOVE and Tile.getBuildingDraft(x,y):getId() == buildingDraft:getId() and song then
song.stop()
bx, by = nil
song = nil
end
end
function script:nextDay()
if City.countBuildings(buildingDraft) > 0 then
bx, by = City.getBuilding(1, buildingDraft)
if song then
song.setPosition(bx, by)
end
end
if bx and not song then
song = City.playSound(songDraft, bx, by, 0.5, true)
end
end
this works for 1 building only

how to add night frames to a road?

the same way you would add animations to a building
you just have to specify frame index
hexed coral
how
pseudo nymph
There was a road plugin on forum with snow textures... It was beatiful
hexed coral
So how do I specify frame indexes or something?
eternal lake
"frame": index in building's animation definition
for most roads it would be 0-15
eg. a def with frame: 0 will apply the animation to the first frame only
eternal lake
`"frame": index` in building's animation definition
this

"frame": 0

I want to add those sounds for bucket wheel I am working on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7zIZVlMtFY
this is lua right?
pseudo nymph
trying to do something
tested this
why
btw what is the difference between noise and sound codes
I guess for adding sound to something I need to use "getXY ()" with "playSound (sound, x, y[, volume=1[, loop=false]])" this stuff
eternal lake
sadly that's not how lua works
pseudo nymph
dang it
eternal lake
square brackets in documentation mean optional
pseudo nymph
I need to use i = stuff, right?
eternal lake
you need to actually call the function
eternal lake
I need to use i = stuff, right?
not quite sure what do you need for loops for here?
pseudo nymph
¯_(ツ)_/¯
eternal lake
you also include the module name before the function
pseudo nymph
I guess for adding sound to something I need to use "getXY ()" with "playSound (...
but for the thing I want, this is what I need right?
hmm
eternal lake
depends on what do you want to achieve
pseudo nymph
I want to add sound to a building
kind of like party house by ja
once you get away from it, the sound will drop
eternal lake
get coordinates of your building, get your current coordinates, write a complicated function to calculate distance, ????, profit
pseudo nymph
oh my...
eternal lake
I would recommend starting with something simpler
pseudo nymph
soo ja made those all stuff just for a party house with strange sound effects
thought it was easy stuff
eternal lake
you know, you won't make a script with like 2 lines
eternal lake
pseudo nymph
can I make something like.. uhm treeplanting stuff in game
eternal lake
play around with the functions and what different modules have to offer

not exactly, just practise some basics

this is an end code right?

if you set the counter var to 15 the text will just start counting at 15 instead of 0

pseudo nymph
why tho
eternal lake
idk what could it do
pseudo nymph
maybe it does what ja's party house do
eternal lake
what?

go ahead
eternal lake
obviously
maybe it's for getting noise influence, idk
not sure why would you need that function if there's Tile.getInfluence or something like that
pseudo nymph
still gotta try but how do I implent it to a building
pseudo nymph
I am going to use this ability one day, was searching for that code but couldnt find it
eternal lake

pseudo nymph
yep thanks

Not that noise

maybe it does what ja's party house do
That's City.playSound

That's City.playSound
does it literally do the all things (except crazy light) in party house?

it plays a sound in a location on the map
it returns a object you can use to stop and play the sound
and make it play in a diffrent location

they do get played from a certain location in your city
just like enviromental sounds
if you want to change the volume thats in the draft
as for changing volume during runtime, idk

you want to change the volume dynamically?

hmm

i would know i have a copy of the code

well
its undocumented
so thats why i said toast the contents of the sound object
to find out whats possible
pseudo nymph
one off question too
can I make a building with auto adjustable performance indicator which player cant change manually but it is connected to an influence(?)?
pseudo nymph
like a building that produces energy on the amount of produced trash
I know there should be a code for getting amount of trash info
ops there isnt, only isfullofwaste
we can cheat too
terse void
like a building that produces energy on the amount of produced trash
cant you use a power plant with the waste disposal influence
or do you want it dynamic
pseudo nymph
I want it dynamic
this is a waste disposal and also an energy producer in my country
its actually aim is destroying trash but also makes energy for side product(?)
it uses gasses of the trash, more trash more energy
here is another idea, while looking at the lua codes of TT I found that possible
a good idea for a lua plugin is global warming, it can count cars, industrial workers and people with their own increase ratio for global warming. Negative effects are trees disappearing, pollution at random locations and sea pollution (yellowish water)... how to prevent it is planting more trees and using clean energy
the only thing I need to learn is adding them own increase ratios, trees despawning, random pollution stuff
for planting more tree being possitive effect, I guess there should be a code for counting trees
or using nature influence
but I mean, it is sooo unnecessary thing
not even a good idea actually. Whoever wants things like this. Waste of time
hexed coral

pseudo nymph
dont
terse void
Index is to pick which one you want
For example
You have 5 buildings with ID 'the thing'
With an index of 2 you'd get the second building with that id
pseudo nymph
with the index of a I can hold them all right?
terse void
no
youd have to use a loop
besides this only gets the x y positions
to collect all their positions
terse void
getting buildings and countbuildings in script:update 
id use script:event in the script linked to your sandspider building to catch EVENT_FINISHED events
then increment the count with that
and decrement it when EVENT_REMOVE happens
pseudo nymph
Oh alright
terse void
ah yes
the ideal scripting language
also
math.randomseed(os.time())
is supposed to be in script:init
you shouldnt set that seed again
and you dont use the result of the math.random on the next line so its useless

Does anybody knows why the "Farm Houses" plug in doesn't work, it says there's a...
probablly because of the code
lean flower
Works fine for me, so it must be something on your end
Ok man, I'll check the error and send a sc so you can see what's wrong with it
Because honestly I am not sure
bright rain
Ok
lean flower
Ok
Hey man I just checked and the plug in is running fine now, I had an error that said something like "Farm.0211" is already in use" but I deleted it and got it back and it works just fine, thanks for replying do. Sorry for the bother
bright rain
Ok, glad it's working now

Is there a way to have several frames in fences and ability to choose between them with arrows?
I would like to use frames:index in animations with them
hexed coral
is there a way to have several indexes in "frame":index??
If I want for my animation to show up when frame is 1 or 2, as example

what was the game console command for .plugin files?

export:"my epic plugin"
terse void
You have a trailing comma
So
Remove the last comma
Because it expects another value if it's there
terse void
no just the commas on the last lines

What if a plugin adds something which already exists in other plugins in some form
But it's not exactly the same
pseudo nymph
Like 2 burj khalifa plugin but made by 2 different person, or what
Just use different ids
It is not a problem to have two of the same building by 2 different authors
short imp
no just the commas on the last lines
Thanks, I worked
hexed coral
@pseudo nymph I mean if I make something, but there is already a plugin with same idea
Like people prop
pseudo nymph
I am not sure because people prop is an easy to do
Only one of it is enough imo, why would you make another variant of it
hybrid depot
Why, my plugin has not been approved yet Since 2 days ago Usually not this long.... Why moderator why ????
upbeat quail
can I have several indexes in "frame"? (animation)

hexed coral
HOW

Tomorrow i will show u. Now is 0:29 in my country and i have gone to bed 😂😂
hexed coral
okay
hybrid depot
why moderators why ??? previously you guys approved this plugin ... why not now ??? What is the problem
This has the function of collecting waste ... the same as the other waste disposal buildings
grand spruce
The store mods don't tend to be on here. I'd ask on the froums
hybrid depot
So what should I do 😨
grand spruce
ask on the forums
hybrid depot
Ok i will try it
copper herald
Ok i will try it
If it still keeps getting denied you could post it on the fourms if you don’t mind it being free
hybrid depot
Never !

I would change the description.
hexed coral
I heard there are diagonal fences... are they possible in vanilla and can someone give me the frame example for them?
pseudo nymph
Nobody even checks forum anymore and still complains about plugin store prices. It wont change anything if you post it on forum for people who are using there
short imp
What’s the code for making making this land where the plug-in is transparent?
short imp
Btw it has too much noise
It’s a screenshot which I cropped in to, also I will remove the texture on flag it’s not that great
short imp
and dont upload one flag
It’s not one flag
vale minnow

how can I enable zonetool (or how is this called) for my building?
my building is 1x1 decoration
pseudo nymph
maybe "zoneable":true?
hexed coral
doesn't work
eternal lake
"frame alignment area" if that's how it's called
hexed coral
it works... just acts like terrain but probably fixable
I remember seeing something about random frames on forum
pseudo nymph
u can use auto color too but it is a bit handy for buildings
hexed coral
wdym auto color?
eternal lake
"color" attribute for animation objects
hexed coral
so it just changes animation color?
eternal lake
yes
hexed coral
idk pretty useful but not exactly what I need now
"random frames": false and "random frame": false (just to be sure) and it didn't work
I guess I can't combine selectable frame and zonetool?
eternal lake
oh there is "selectable frames" parameter
this just disables the arrows, I don't think you want that
eternal lake
I have no idea why doesn't it work then 
hexed coral
can my plugin get disapproved for this?
eternal lake
why?
hexed coral
why would it get disapproved or why did I do that?
oh and this will get 2Xed lmao :D
hexed coral
I have window decoration

eternal lake
I mean, can't you use "move y" in animation object?
hexed coral

eternal lake
idk how it works now so can't say for sure
hexed coral

Does it actually move something?
can you display rocket flying up without massive array?

steel verge
I mean, can't you use "move y" in animation object?
it was written before lua
eternal lake

pseudo nymph

Why is TheoTown.playsound() cropped on mobile?
I have a looped sound

oh and is there any way to disable that horrible audio cropping?
file compression didn't help
steel verge
no
hexed coral

steel verge
look, I got no clue why
hexed coral
what's that
steel verge
java
check your memory consumption when you use it
might be related to garbage collection
though I doubt it
steel verge
open debug mode and observe memory while the sounds are being played
hollow flax
steel verge
loadedSounds is an array of drafts
shouldn't be
maybe the android memory management aggressiveness deletes the sound instance

how big is your file
hexed coral
original is slightly smaller than 1mb
then I tried compressing
and it's 200kb
it didn't help though
hexed coral
so one of tiles is being hidden by a fence, I know why this happens but is there a way to fix?
earnest pendant
no

TT vanilla harbors use color feature, you can find their json in plugin documendations on forum
eternal lake
or define a color and call it with "color":"$colorid00"
hexed coral
I can't apply animations to frames themselves? animations only?
eternal lake
what?
hexed coral
wait
hexed coral
what?
I should've said "colors" instead of first "animations"
my bad
confusing words
I meant if can I use color attribute on frames (not animations)
hexed coral
okay, thanks for the info
eternal lake
you're welcome

What do the harbors use color for?

Hello, I have a question. I had many many plugins downloaded or bought, but I had a break. I haven't played for a year almost. Now, when I opened TheoTown, I was left with one plugin andbthe restb is gone. At least the in-game purchases from store remained. What should I do with lost diamonds on plugins, which I cannot get back? And why I cannot watch adds to get them back?
terse void
have you checked in game if they are really gone?
old plugin might no longer show up in the plugin menu because of some changes
but they will still be loaded
graceful wolf
No, they disappeared from my owned plugins
