Day system

[netmanx]

What im trying to do is create a sort of basic day system. the first day is set to monday then when the day is over it increments the day variable and at the start of the day says what day it is based on the number. this is the general layout i have for each day but the problem is that the first day is displayed properly and then tuesday is right but after that it stops giving any messages or doing anything really. any help is appreciated

this is not the entire code, i have not included the rest of the days because they have a repeated format that is the same as the two below

Game - The in-game time of day becomes Equal to 24.00

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    If - Conditions
        day Equal to 1
    Then - Actions
        Set day = 2
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: Today is Monday. Pa...
    Else - Actions

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    If - Conditions
        day Equal to 2
    Then - Actions
        Set day = 3
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: Today is Tuesday. P...
    Else - Actions

No please not infinite "ifs".

Go like this:

Game time becomes 24
If(day == 7)
Then: set day = 1
else: set day = day + 1
Display to all players MessageArray[day]

with the messageArray including the messages for the single days (e.g. messageArray[1] = Today is monday. Fuel will be cheap today)

Use this.

Triggers

• Variables
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.01 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set DMSG_INT = 0
    • Set DayMSG[0] = Today is monday
    • Set DayMSG[1] = Today is tuesday
    • Set DayMSG[2] = Today is wednesday
    • Set DayMSG[3] = Today is thursday
    • Set DayMSG[4] = Today is friday
    • Set DayMSG[5] = Today is saturday
    • Set DayMSG[6] = Today is sunday
    • Set day = 1

• Example
  • Events
    • Game - The in-game time of day becomes Equal to 24.00
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (DayMSG[DMSG_INT] + ( Day + (String(day))))
    • Set day = (day + 1)
    • Set DMSG_INT = (DMSG_INT + 1)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • DMSG_INT Greater than 6
      • Then - Actions
        • Set DMSG_INT = 0
      • Else - Actions

EDIT: Heh. Azazel posted similiar answer already =p

mmkay ive modelled my code after dark's and the problem im having is the days aren't changing, after the first day nothing else is displayed. i have more or less what you have dark and i can't see a problem with how im adding the days or displaying them.

day

            If - Conditions
                day Equal to 6
            Then - Actions
                Set day = 0
            Else - Actions
                Set day = (day + 1)
                Game - Display to (All players) the text: daymess[day]

That's strange :/
have you tried "becomes equal to 0" if that is possible?

with that change i dont get any message at all

 

[DarkAngelAzazel]

EEhh no i meant changing the event of the periodic trigger to "becomes equal to 0" instead of "becomes equal to 24.00"

 

[netmanx]

okay, that worked although im not sure why, thanks for the help

 

[DarkAngelAzazel]

It really did XD?

Now i am confused too

But that's programming. Never ask why just be happy it works

24 == 0
That's why. Because 23:00 would be eleven midnight. 24:00 would be same as 0:00 aka twelve midnight.
