Modding Help Help with .lua please?

Nujuju299 · May 16, 2016

Same mod from the previous two topics just onto another issue at least. I want to say really quickly that I'm not familiar with lua and tried to pick it up, but it's not easy. I figure that it should be working right now, because non-lua eyes are telling me it should be working, but I figure I overlooked something because I'm not fluent in the language yet.
-Tried the docs.starbound.com but it said it was down or inaccessible right now.
-Tried the lua page and can't afford to go out and buy a book just to learn lua for one topic and the free learn lua page is the entirety of lua while I need functions to also relate specifically to Starbound, aside from my goal being what should be a simple five line task.
-The tutorial page by OmnipotentEntity is useful for getting specifically to the points I need, but is hard to understand it's use due to only referencing the functions.

If someone could point me towards another source to figure this out that would certainly help, but.... I've already spent a bit of time on this and want to know where I went wrong in the first place too. All the same thank you.

Again I figure it's something I overlooked and didn't see because it's spitting out a null value can't be variable or something. I would love to know which one it is too if possible, but I dunno. :/ So, what I have so far is as follows.

I ran the .jsons through JsonLint and the Lua script through the lua demo, both of which are saying it works, but I know that only means I'm syntax free, and my log is only saying "DO IT AGAIN!"

My .lua:

If by chance you need my object and config which so far seems to be working otherwise, and goes into my two previous topics;

.object:

.config:

If it makes a difference, I get a crash to main menu whenever the update function in the lua script is called, from when I hit the button in the config I setup. This happens regardless of items being in the "container slots." :/

v6ooo · May 16, 2016

I've never actually used buttons but that sounds like the problem. I don't know if you can specify a callback function yet.

Nujuju299 · May 16, 2016

Shouldn't be, the button I took from the campfire object, the script is at Repairo where it consumes auto chips for repairing vehicles. I wanted the same idea for my object, but to level up weapons instead. Since the vehicle uses a variable for health, weapons use a variable for level, I figure the process is more or less the same, just change the functions from "is this a vehicle?" To "Is this a weapon?" I have confirmed that some of the functions were actually variables in some of the lua scripts when I compared the green hover bike.vehicle, lua, and Repairo lua.

Nujuju299 · May 16, 2016

I can test in the morning though, I don't know if I did officially confirm it not being the button, just that the camp fire has a button and no lua script. On that note, maybe I did make a mistake? I didn't figure it should have done anything. Unless someone confirms before me, we'll know in twelve hours.

TheElderScroller · May 16, 2016

The first thing I would test is giving the button "callback" : "null". Starbound needs all buttons to have this callback property to specified afaik.
"null" will make it null, but it needs a string.
Thats also just what the log says, null could be the missing value.

Nujuju299 · May 16, 2016

Alright, I'm still going to be busy, and I'd read the logs myself so sorry for not doing it myself. At least not yet. :/

First test: Gave the button callback:null and as soon as the object was interacted with it crashed:

now it looks like it cant read the file as JSON, propably because you forgot to remove something (like a comma, a quote, ect)
Dont forget to post the uiconfig file & the log, the log alone is almost useless without the config.

I thought this would do it...

Code:

{
  "gui" : {
    "background" : {
     "type" : "background",
     "fileHeader" : "/objects/Crystal Upgrade/Crystal_header.png",
     "fileBody" : "/objects/Crystal Upgrade/Crystal_body.png",
     "fileFooter" : "/objects/Crystal Upgrade/Crystal_footer.png"
    },
    "toggleCrafting" : {
     "type" : "button",
     "callback" : "null",       // callback added
     "position" : [5, 39],
     "base" : "/interface/objectcrafting/cook.png",
     "hover" : "/interface/objectcrafting/cookover.png",
     "caption" : "Refine"

I haven't seen anyone been able to add custom buttons to the container ui. The callback functions are all hardcoded.
There are just some buttons you can use, "close" is obvious and I think "clear" would take all items in a container. You'd have to test it though.

Repairo doesn't use the button in the UI yet, it triggers on every Update (scriptDelta). It will most likely coded in when they consider it finished.

@Nujuju299, for your 2nd log/spoiler, it's pretty obvious mistake. "Caused by: (JsonParsingException) Error parsing json: bad object, should be ':' at 14:17"

Sorry I had stuff to do quickly.
That would explain why I saw Repairo with a line, "scriptDelta" : 20, so I'm guessing, every 20 frames? @v6ooo Also I was basing off Repairo because it was an object that consumed X to modify variable Z if object Y tag == A, more or less. Sorry for that being convoluted. However, I also wanted to add a button if I could so it wouldn't be just instant but, "If you're ready...."

Don't need to point out that both errors are in the config file, and sorry to not post the information when I could again. :/

According to the log, a colon should be on line 14, 17 points in. Well, looking at exactly that, there is a colon there. That entire line reads exactly;

Code:

     "caption" : "Refine"

That's unedited though, so that's the button itself which showed up previously just fine, so obviously it's not the caption.
Having added a line which also didn't get through the .JsonLint found an error with "callback" : "null," for some reason, and was not the end of line, but I'll make a more detailed re-post in a minute now that I have the time.
So, before I get there, adding a line, I forgot where, would have been another "No colon found but a colon was there?" Error on the callback null, or
removing the button entirely makes line 14 "backingImage" : "/interface/inventory/empty.png"

And now for the re-official tests:

unedited config:

adding callback, seems no error this time so I must have goofed somewhere earlier:

No error, but also nothing happened so we must be on the right track here I guess? Log didn't even spit out errors!

Will be trying out a few other variations now before I go afk some more. Thanks for the help so far.

Shameless plug here but if you are looking for some examples of the LUA API and a bit of documentation I run a website called sblaud.net where I document and give explanations on some parts of the API, it is in dire need of an update though

I wanted to revisit this with new information. Thanks to the new item "cropshipper" I finally figured out how to add items to a container gui... I always assumed scripts defined in the object was linked to the gui as well but that's not the case.

Essentially what you need to know is the object & the gui are separate. If you just need a callback function for the gui without the object doing anything then you do not need message handlers. If you do then you need to add a message handler and let the gui tell the object to do something.

Here's how the cropshipper communicates between the gui and object. I've cut away most just leaving what you need to know.

cropshipper.object
Code:
.....
  "uiConfig" : "/interface/scripted/cropshipper/cropshippergui.config",
.....
  "scripts" : [ "/objects/generic/cropshipper/cropshipper.lua" ],
.....
cropshipper.lua (object lua)
Code:
function init()
.....
  message.setHandler("triggerShipment", startLaunch)
.....
end
cropshippergui.config
Code:
.....
    "btnShip" : {
      "type" : "button",
      "base" : "/interface/button.png",
      "hover" : "/interface/buttonhover.png",
      "press" : "/interface/buttonhover.png",
      "caption" : "Ship",
      "position" : [96, 26],
      "callback" : "triggerShipment"
    },
.....
  "scriptWidgetCallbacks" : [
    "triggerShipment"
  ],

  "scripts" : ["/interface/scripted/cropshipper/cropshippergui.lua"],
.....
cropshippergui.lua (gui lua)
Code:
function triggerShipment(widgetName, widgetData)
  world.sendEntityMessage(pane.containerEntityId(), "triggerShipment")
.....
end

This line is a problem:

Code:

if catalyst and catalyst.name == "crystal" and weapon and weapon.tooltipKind == "sword" then
  weapon.level = weapon.level+1
end

It needs to be

Code:

if catalyst and catalyst.name == "crystal" and weapon and weapon.parameters.tooltipKind and weapon.parameters.tooltipKind == "sword" then
  weapon.parameters.level = weapon.parameters.level+1
end

Doesn't work, sorry. :/ I'm starting to think it's a feature that Starbound doesn't support yet. The log file gives me an error "Attempt to call a nil value (global 'setProperty')" I'm starting to think this is because the variable in the config is set to be global for all X items, rather than individual, so any individual item can't be upgraded because there's "no individual level." Whenever I Get back into this I'll have to take a look at some other luas for the randomly generated weapons to see if there's something there; I'm certain they must have individual levels or something considering the random sword blade and handle together stuff.... But who knows.

v6ooo · Jun 5, 2016

Increasing levels should work but you may have to set if it doesn't exist in parameters already.

"Attempt to call a nil value (global 'setProperty')"
You're trying to call a function/variable called setProperty that does not exist.
If you're trying to save global variables it's world.setProperty (what are you trying to save?)

Edit: If you're working with item descriptors then the base will contain name, count & parameters BUT parameters will be empty unless the game (or you) have generated specific values for the item.
The values in parameter overrides the values in the config.

If you need to read the default value from the config then you can use root.itemConfig("itemname")

Nujuju299 · Jun 6, 2016

I didn't even pick that up because I was busy with something else. lol, that was from Wellbott's script for weapon.parameters.level+1
I can pretty much guarantee you I wasn't trying to play with a setProperty+1. So, I figure the reason it's giving that error is because lua is trying to modify the config rather than the item's individual variable.

Wellbott · Jun 8, 2016

I assume that error must come from some other part of the lua; I don't see anything in the snippet you posted that would do it. But all the contents of 'parameters' in an item descriptor are attached to that one instance and supplement or override the item's base config values. Not all can be overridden... I've never been able to make the game use a modified 'description' or 'shortDescription', among others... but 'level' is almost certainly doable. Just make the script delete the weapon in the container and replace it using the data you pulled and modified.

v6ooo · Jun 8, 2016

@Wellbott, naming items is as simple as parameters.shortdescription = newname. Same for description.

The tricky part are objects, they re-initialize when broken so you need to add a script for die, object.smash it and spawn it with the name in parameters.

Nujuju299 · Jun 8, 2016

Sorry I've made a mistake. My setProprty was because I had the script as
Code:
setProperty(weapon.parameters.level, weapon.parameters.level+1)
So I fixed that to go with Wellbott's suggestion, properly this time, and the script seems to have run fine. For the most part, anyways.
Three placeholder checks I have for what stages the scripts run are for crystal, weapon, and both being just fine; all three have returned positive in the log.
However the log also shows that after the catalyst was consumed, only one, that there's an error with the catalyst. Not huge or important, it would be nice to get rid of that error too, but I looked at my weapon to see that it still did 8 damage. So... 8 damage to 8 damage. :/
I haven't checked for if it's a new weapon I craft because it could have been the config instead, or something I don't know, because I'm busy with other projects that aren't specifically Starbound. I feel more or less like I'm asking you to do this for me, but regardless any help would indeed be nice, and sorry. :/

But, with that said, my current script gathering dust is:
Code:
function update(dt)
  local catalyst = world.containerItemAt(entity.id(),0)
  local weapon = world.containerItemAt(entity.id(),1)
  if catalyst and catalyst.name == "crystal" and weapon and root.itemHasTag(weapon.name, "weapon") then
    world.logInfo("Passed!")
    weapon.level=weapon.parameters.level+1
    consumecatalyst()
  end
  if catalyst.name == "crystal" then
    world.logInfo("Crystal ok!")
  end
  if root.itemHasTag(weapon.name, "weapon") then
    world.logInfo("Weapon ok")
  end
end

function consumecatalyst()
  local consumed = world.containerConsumeAt(entity.id(), 0,1)
  return consumed
end
Oh and just incase someone is interested or wants it, this is the moment of the log file since I don't feel like posting the rest of the startup or making a big long giant list that's unneeded:
Code:
[10:30:12.469] Info: UniverseServer: Loading celestial world -472048208:502444686:11847332:5:1
[10:30:12.492] Error: Exception while invoking lua function 'update'. (LuaException) Error code 2, [string "/objects/Crystal Upgrade/crystalupgrade.lua"]:9: attempt to index a nil value (local 'catalyst')

v6ooo · Jun 8, 2016

The reason for your catalyst error on line 9 is when the slot is empty and it returns nil. Catalyst is nil and not a table and you're trying to access catalyst.name which is not there.

As for your weapon level not increasing. You're increasing weapon.level and not weapon.parameters.level.
Code:
weapon.parameters.level = (weapon.parameters.level or 1) +1

Nujuju299 · Jun 9, 2016

It's trivial because it only makes an error in the world log thing, but I was hoping to find a way to prevent an error like that from popping up. Something like "if item exists(catalyst)" kind of thing.
I must have made another mistake which is probably why it didn't actually spit out an error this time... I'm pretty sure the weapon.parameters.level=X returns an error that I'm trying to set a variable I'm not allowed to set or something.

....

....

Ok I'm surprised again, I fixed the missing .parameters. space and it didn't spit out the error I was expecting, it worked, but the weapon in question's damage remains the same. Who knows, maybe the weapon's level did increase but because the weapon already has it's damage it just isn't updating the damage?

The entire object shuts down when it gets an error which means I'll need to find that fix anyways. Sorry for asking people to do this for me, not my intent, I'm just putting this last line here as a note to anyone who reads it, more or less.
