BzoukHotbarnew mod uses this mod too

Edit, I figured out, its the "Spray Paint" mod for B41 that uses this mod

I have this mod installed but dont remember why, does someone know what exactly it is used for and how to check which of my other mods uses this framework?

hi

Can one force-update it for B42 without functionality loss?

Hi, great mod, when u can, can updated to B42 pls? ty a lot!

Please consider to keep a build 41 Version for those of us That will be remaining on Build 41 And the servers and files we have used for Years

Blindcoder! Funny seeing you here while I'm scrolling through haha

@Orc: Oh, thanks. I'll fix that!

Just in case you were unaware, you have been uploading your entire git history within the workshop mod.

i tried to use this and the spraypaint mod on my server but don't think it is compatible with the Hydrocraft mod

Thank you :)

@Kable: That'd be possible except for the Moodlets. They are so deep in Java code that it hurts. I've heard it said that that IS on the TODO list for TIS, just pretty deep down.

@blindcoder it's not said enough that you rock.

@blindcoder is it possible to mod a toggle option to move the GUI around? I play on a 2160p resolution and the moodlets are so tiny.

@sf:
That's interesting. I'll investigate this! PZ is using kahlua, which is actually slightly different from "normal" Lua in some areas.This might be such an area, or it might be a genuine bug that "just happened to work". I'll check it out!

sorry to interrupt again, but this is prob last time for this one.
I just felt compelled to at least report it (coder's duty). Pls ignore where applicable.

The escape thing I told you about? I think I wasn't clear before. You were talking about escaping the regex expression. I was actually referring to escaping the in-code string itself (for the lua parser) which seems to require changing the "\." in the regex string to "\\." to work with some lua implementations (actually just using Lua 5.2 on windows). It seems to report error no matter using dofile or require until I added escaped "\".

PZ may be using a more relaxed parser which means it does not really matter practically (nobody complained, so prob nothing needs to be done). Would be bad if PZ is actually doing something different completely (e.g. "properly" escaping the string actually breaks it in PZ) which I am hoping is not the case.

Yeah I think the problem is with the lua interpreter I am using, that reads the file in "as is" (I was using dothis("filename") ). It prob won't have problem in a "native" executing environment, e.g. directly being executed by the binary. I was just using an command prompt to pick up the language faster by dynamically examining the variables and trying out commands.

Thanks for the reply and sorry for troubling you over such inconsequential matter.

@sf:
It's not the backslash that's escaped, but the "." (dot). In this case, it's to escape the special meaning of "." in regular expressions. In regular expressions a "." means "any character, once", whereas "\." (escaped dot) means a literal dot character.

sorry to disturb

Just wondering about bcUtils.lua:181 and similar :209
[code]
currentCat = string.match(line, "[a-zA-Z0-9/ \.]+");
[/code]

Is there a need to escape the backslash? I got an error when trying to load the file in a normal lua interpreter (picking up lua). I never seen that problem with PZ itself, so I don't know if it will cause any problem.

good stuff, man!

@JUGO5: Hell yes, it did! Why update it when it's not broken ;)
Just added a new readINI function to read files from mod directories to support my Mod Release Notes mod.

holy fuck this updated after like 6 years lol

Can you bring that up with Hydro? This mod uses its own namespace and doesn't interact with functions outside that namespace.

Devin L - yeah, I'm experiencing the same issue as well. I have nearly 40 other mods, but turning this on breaks Hydrocraft 41's item spawns.

Having a kind of odd issue here, I was attempting to use this as it is required by another mod, but, doing so seems to cause items from Hydrocraft 41 not to spawn on start up. I did attempt it with just this utility started to ensure it was the other mod I was trying to use. Any one else having this issue?

@total_ty: That's an intended feature. I use it so I reload some things on the fly without the debug menu or restarting the game. It's actually a feature of the mod, not of the game itself.

I have noticed when this mod is enabled, the button 'Forcereload LUA' appears at the top right of the screen in main menu, is this an intended feature or caused by error?

that... would be weird. I'll look into it.

on the build 41 (iwlllbackupmysave) beta

mod makes character disappear :(

@Starman
I don't have a "tool" or someting like that. Inserting maps to a running server will always require - at least a partial - reset. I can tell you more on the discord server, contact me there.

Hi, I was pointed in your direction @blindcoder. I have a community server, been running for a few months now. I am trying to insert maps that apparently need a reset. I was told you have a method or a tool that can help insert a map without need for reset. Any chance you can share? A couple examples of such maps.. Stonehill Apartments and Over The River. I am pretty experienced with the game, admining etc. I even have my own scripts for resetting commercial area, restart etc.

btw i found a necroforge mod that sounds like it can remove traits, so we'll try that on friends server as a test, as in case the functionality is already existing in a mod

hi blindcoder, i was wondering if there is a way to do something with this mod (sorry am not an expert coder) :)

is there a way to check if a player has a skill?
like bcUtils.hasStreet (though in this case, hasSkill)?
and then swap a skill already in place?

Scenario:
the basic problem that leads me to ask this, is that a friend and i play on his server, and have made some progress so far including with hydrocraft.
but, we chose "all thumbs" LOL

bascally, we realise that this is considerably slowing down our actions, since hydrocraft is full of items, and because we dont have that much time to play, is there a way to swap a skill by an admin, so that we are not technically cheating, but instead able to use our limited playing time more efficiently, without having to make a fresh new character from the start?

The Workshop number is 503640135 and the mod ID is bcUtils

What is this mods workshop number and ID?

Good stuff! I am learning SO much about this game and workshop features! I am impressed with your work sir! I hope to learn learn learn, and start to do some of my own things! Right now I am just playing around with the game, and mods.. Your stuff will help me put some order to all this!

quite epic

what is the ID workshop of this?

addItem?

Maybe you should head over to the PZ modding forum, there's a lot of helpful people there, too:
http://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/forum/45-pz-modding/

Encountered some new problems

If I use "addItem"

Get the number of items will be the value of "numberToRemove"


local inv = getPlayer():getInventory();
local numberToRemove = 5;
local itemToRemove = "Base.Nails";
for i=1,numberToRemove do
local it = inv:FindAndReturn(itemToRemove);
if it then inv:Remove(it); end
end

inv:AddItem("Base.Axe"); --There should be only 1 axe, but I got 5 axe

It works

Thank you for your help

@Dreamofnight:
There's nothing specifically about that in this toolkit, but something like this should work:

local inv = getPlayer():getInventory();
local numberToRemove = 5;
local itemToRemove = "Base.Nails";
for i=1,numberToRemove do
local it = inv:FindAndReturn(itemToRemove);
if it then inv:Remove(it); end
end

Can you access the player's inventory and remove the set number of items?

You're welcome :-)

DUDE I GOT IT WORKING THANKS TO YOU! I FUCKING LOVE U MAAAN!

Thank you! i was missing the Semicolons!

ah, right, the toolbar and hotbar mods need this one. Just separate the relevant workshop item IDs by semicolons ; and you should be set. There's a lot of information about adding workshop items on the Zomboid forums, too.
