[Trigger] Some sorts of admin commands

Zayfox · May 18, 2008

Hi there,
Could some please explain and show me (using GUI triggers) how to make this trigger work for me?

typed message: -setgold <player variable> <amount>

makes the player in <player variable> slot suddenly have <amount> of gold. I need this for players 1-6
E.G:

-setgold blue 40000

sets blue's gold to 40000

The same trigger is needed for setwood

Thanks in advance,

Fox :spell_breaker:

Events
- Player - Player 1 (Red) types -setgold as exact match
- Player - Player 2 (Blue) types -setgold as exact match
- ...
Conditions
Actions
- Player - Add 1000 Gold to (triggering players) actual gold

NOte that you have to add all 6 players to the event
The action is listed as Player - Add property

if you got it working for gold copy n paste your gold trigger, change -setgold to -setwood
and then modify your Player Action to add wood (it is the same function you can choose from gold / wood / food / points etc)

Thanks, but not quite exactly what I need :\

Example:
Red types -setgold blue 400
blue's gold goes to 400

red types -setgold orange 400
oranges gold goes up to 400.

Thanks in advance,
Fox

Use your mind, then go to the editor and look at Player events and actions, and change what apocalypse_dude did to whatever you want.

Honestly, can't you people think more then a bird ?

Use this:

Events: Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -setgold as A substring
Conditions: NONE
Actions:
- -------- Blue --------
- If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  - If - Conditions
    - (Substring((Entered chat string), 10, 13)) Equal to blue
  - Then - Actions
    - Player - Set Player 2 (Blue) Current gold to (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 15, (Length of (Entered chat string))))))
  - Else - Actions
- -------- Teal --------
- If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  - If - Conditions
    - (Substring((Entered chat string), 10, 13)) Equal to teal
  - Then - Actions
    - Player - Set Player 3 (Teal) Current gold to (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 15, (Length of (Entered chat string))))))
  - Else - Actions
- -------- Purple --------
- If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  - If - Conditions
    - (Substring((Entered chat string), 10, 15)) Equal to purple
  - Then - Actions
    - Player - Set Player 4 (Purple) Current gold to (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 17, (Length of (Entered chat string))))))
  - Else - Actions
- -------- Yellow --------
- If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  - If - Conditions
    - (Substring((Entered chat string), 10, 15)) Equal to yellow
  - Then - Actions
    - Player - Set Player 5 (Yellow) Current gold to (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 17, (Length of (Entered chat string))))))
  - Else - Actions
- -------- Orange --------
- If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  - If - Conditions
    - (Substring((Entered chat string), 10, 15)) Equal to orange
  - Then - Actions
    - Player - Set Player 6 (Orange) Current gold to (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 17, (Length of (Entered chat string))))))
  - Else - Actions

For wood just copy the trigger and set:

Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -setgold as A substring

to:

Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -setwood as A substring

Then replace all "Current Gold" with "Current lumber".

Saishy · May 19, 2008

I didn't understand it, why 10 and 13, 10 and 15?

GhostWolf · May 19, 2008

Because -setgold is 0 to 8, then the space is 9, and then 10 - next one is the player's name.

The_Reborn_Devil, you should add a condition that substring 0 to 8 is that sentence, so only if you type it like that the trigger will work.
Currently also if the player types "bla blo blu -setgold" it would start the trigger without any point.

PurplePoot · May 19, 2008

While Jass would be undescribably cleaner for this, here you are:

Uses two integer variables, bound and bound2, a string variable, PlayerString, and a player variable, TargetPlayer.

Untested, and the syntax may not be perfect since this was written in Notepad.

Also, light blue and dark green must be typed as lightblue and darkgreen for the input, since the trigger separates at spaces.

        -------- In the 'else' for Player 12 (Brown), put 'Skip remaining actions' --------
  - Player - Add Integer(Substring((Entered Chat String),(bound2 + 2),(Length of (Entered Chat String)))) Gold to TargetPlayer

To change for -setlumber and -setfood, or any other commands, you just need to tweak the substring positions, and of course the "-setgold" string.

PurplePoot and The_Reborn_Devil, Thank you

GhostWolf, instead of flaming people who can't use WE 24/7 like you, go get some friends.

Zayfox · May 22, 2008

I used this code, can someone verify and see if this is right? Thanks.

Set Property
- Events
  - Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing - as A substring

      - If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        
        If - Conditions
        
        (Substring((Entered chat string), 5, (5 + (Length of colour[(Integer A)])))) Equal to (colour[(Integer A)] + )
        
        Then - Actions
        
        Set Amount = (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), (5 + (Length of colour[(Integer A)])), 25))))
        
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        
        If - Conditions
        
        (Substring((Entered chat string), 2, 7)) Equal to setwood
        
        Then - Actions
        
        Player - Set (Player((Integer A))) Current lumber to Amount
        
        Else - Actions
        
        Do Nothing

Amount is the variable to set to
colour is a player array with players 1-12.

PurplePoot · May 22, 2008

That assumes there are no spaces, and that there are only three letters between - and the player color.

It would help you a lot (in the long run) if you do a little bit of thinking before asking. This applies to life in general not only WE. Try playing around with the actions in the trigger editor so you dont have to ask for help at every bump in the road.

Easier than you thought, Huh?

graystuff111 · May 22, 2008

My trigger works like, say you type -set gold p01 500 then player 1's gold gets set to 500.

If you type -set gold p12 5000, then player 12's gold is set to 5000

Zayfox · May 24, 2008

yea, but how could I make it player colours (I have a colour array variable) instead of numbers? I used colours for everything else in the map.

Thanks loads btw.
colour arrays are all proper names except for oj and dg.

PurplePoot · May 27, 2008

You can't compress the trigger in such a way for player colour strings, hence the longer triggers listed above.

The reason it works for numbers is because

They are a predictable length (2 characters in this case)
There is a function to convert the set list of numbers to players for you

Is there a difference between the two?
Second one is my code.

PurplePoot · Jun 15, 2008

Yes, for yours, they would have to be named both Zayfox and WhindSoldier.

And is implicit in GUI conditions, Or is not.
