Object Saving

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 18:51:56 +0000

Code:

world
    mob = /mob/creating_character
    name = "Dragonball Z: Hypnotic Existence"
    hub = "Cyberlord34.DragonballZHypnoticExistence"
    status = "Dragonball Z: Hypnotic Existence - <font color=red>Closed Testing"
    view = 7
    loop_checks = 0
    map_format = TILED_ICON_MAP
    New()
        var/savefile/Bs = new("Save Files/Bans.sav")
        var/list/L = list()
        Bs["Bans"] >> L
        if(!L) return
        for(var/obj/Save_Object/Ban/B in world) if(B.loc) del(B)
        for(var/obj/Save_Object/Ban/B in L)
            B.loc = locate(185,210,10)
        var/savefile/Gs = new ("Save Files/Guilds.sav")
        var/list/Ls = list()
        Gs["Guilds"] >> Ls
        if(!Ls) return
        for(var/obj/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G in world) if(G.loc) del(G)
        for(var/obj/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G in Ls)
            G.loc = locate(185,210,10)
        ..()
    Del()
        var/savefile/Bs = new("Save Files/Bans.sav")
        var/list/L = list()
        for(var/obj/Save_Object/Ban/B in world)
            L += B
        Bs["Bans"] << L
        var/savefile/Gs = new("Save Files/Guilds.sav")
        var/list/Ls = list()
        for(var/obj/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G in world)
            Ls += G
        Gs["Guilds"] << Ls
        ..()

Problem description:
Whenever I Restart the server, the objects don't get loaded. Basically the save isn't working. Can anybody tell me what I should look up, or what to do to make a better method?

Turf Entered() Message

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 21:24:40 +0000

When you Enter this turf

    To_King_Kai
        Entered(mob/player/M)
            if(istype(M,/mob/player))
                M.loc = locate(382,166,2)
                var/exp_gain = rand(200,300)
                M.exp += exp_gain
                M<<"<font color=yellow>You gain an Exp Bonus for succesfully making it accross snakeway"
                M<<"<font color=yellow>Exp Bonus +[exp_gain]"
                M.Level()
                return ..()
            else
                return 0

It display's the message

                M<<"<font color=yellow>You gain an Exp Bonus for succesfully making it accross snakeway"
                M<<"<font color=yellow>Exp Bonus +[exp_gain]"

Three times each. How would I make it only display this message once?

Display Var

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 07:59:34 +0000

I have this code that modifies the user's Guild Page var's.

            Manage_Guild_Page()
                set category = "Guild"
                for(var/obj/SpecialObjs/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G in world)
                    if(G.name == usr.guildname)
                        switch(input("What would you like to change about the guild page?","Manage Guild Page") in list ("Background Color","Text Color","Change Text","Cancel"))
                            if("Background Color")
                                G.background = input("What would you like your guild page background to be?\n- It is best to have a dark background color and a light text color","Guild Background Golor")as color|null
                            if("Text Color")
                                G.textcolor = input("What would you like your guild page text to be?\n- It is best to have a light text color and a dark background","Guild Text Color")as color|null
                            if("Change Text")
                                G.maintext = input("What would you like to change about your guild page text?\n- Any type of HTML is allowed","Guild Main Text")as message|null
                            if("Cancel")
                                return

Under the part "if("Change Text")", how would you make it so when you press 'Change Text', in the box where you type in the new text for the guild page, it shows the old text as well in the box?

Dragonball Z Feature Suggestions

Sat, 14 Nov 2009 01:40:57 +0000

I'm seeking out new features to add into my game. I wan't to know if anybody could make any suggestions for thing's you would like to see in a Dragonball Z game that you haven't seen before, or that very few games have. Preferably new concepts, not just "U SHULD AD PBAGS". Thanks.

Note: Please no trolling this thread.

Problem description:
var/obj/SpecialObjs/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G = new

This isn't making the obj, it's just doing nothing, which ruins the whole guild system. Can someone tell me where I went wrong? I also tried:
var/obj/SpecialObjs/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G = new()
and
var/obj/SpecialObjs/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G = new(null,usr)
and
var/obj/SpecialObjs/Guild_Objects/Guild_Approved/G = new(usr).

Nothing has worked.

Macro System

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 21:26:47 +0000

How would I go about making a macro system for my Obj type Beam System? The obj of the beam is put in the 'Techs' tab, and when you click the obj, it preforms the technique. How would I make it so when you macro a technique, you can just enter 'Kamehameha' or 'Fly' or 'Ki-Cannon', instead of '.click Ki-Cannon' which seems to be hit or miss. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Please let me know how I could do this.

Anybody?

I'm wondering how I would make a Monster shoot a projectile, when they are facing the person, but not right in front of them. Thanks.
