Quote from Yisc[NL] :As soon as any event within Lapper is triggered, you can use the several variables within that event, to do different things.

I may have made the connection few years ago, but my scripts tend to be simple and don't use these Event variables.

I thought they were only used because you couldn't use $UserName, $Keyflags, $ID, etc., or you made up your own variables.

As in
$myShortTrackName = getLapperVar( "ShortTrackName" );
IF ( $myShortTrackName == "BL1".....

which is just shorthand way of writing getLapperVar( " ...
as in
IF( getConfigVar("ShortTrackName") ....

At least now, I've got it more straight in my head. Thanks for confirmation.

Quote from Yisc[NL] :You can do that as in your example, but it's even possible to combine variables and do different things.

Yes, as in your Pitboard.lpr script for using || as OR, as in

IF ( $myShortTrackName == "BL1" || $myShortTrackName == "BL1R" || ......
With that program I can compile the source code of LFSLapper? Visual Studio? I just want to learn how to create functions in C#
hi,
While working on a simple(should be simple) adminchat script. i Discovered a annoying issue i cannot solve.

The script stores the messages in a textfile.
After typing a message or entering the adminchat it loads the messages from the file. This works as it should be.

But the right sequence of those messages are totally lost.

Example: When you write a message : "2". and the next message is "1". That message will load above the previous message "2". And the message after that: "3". Load below "2".

Could someone give me a helping hand?

Fun fact: I have created a AdminLog system and i cannot solve this LOL.

Edit: Fixed something in the code. Same result.

This should do the trick Smile
Solution was to add a unique message ID and store that in the database (used the same trick in another project).

Here's the code i made so far.


CatchEvent OnMSO( $userName, $text ) # Player event

$idxOfFirtsSpace = indexOf( $text, " ");

IF( $idxOfFirtsSpace == -1 ) THEN
$command = $text;
$argv = "";
ELSE
$command = subStr( $text,0,$idxOfFirtsSpace );
$argv = trim( subStr( $text,$idxOfFirtsSpace ) );
ENDIF

SWITCH( $command )

CASE "!adminchat":
CASE "!adchat":
AdminChatWindow(0,0);
BREAK;
ENDSWITCH
EndCatchEvent

Sub AdminChatWindow($keyflags,$id)
UserGroupFromFile( "AdminChat", "User/AdminLog/AdminChat.txt" ); # Load File

openPrivButton( "bgd",60,50,80,64,1,-1,16,"");

UserGroupToFile( "AdminChat", "User/AdminLog/AdminChat.txt" );

LoadAdminChatFromFile(0,0); #Load messages from file.
EndSub

Sub CloseAdminChat($keyflags,$id)
closePrivButton("bgd&Title&Close&Chatbgd&WriteMessage&ScrollUp&Scroll&ScrollDown");
closePrivButton($CloseAdminChat);
EndSub

Sub LoadAdminChatFromFile($keyflags,$id)

$ListAdminChat = GetListOfUsersGroup(AdminChat);
$MaxOfMessages= arrayCount($ListAdminChat);

ENDFOR
EndSub

as I put it to use with a command?
EJ: !logsystem
hi, i have a weird issue with getting data from the array's.
I have convert some Var's with ToNum(). But somehow it doesnt save/get the data from the previous Var from the array i've set.

Has it something todo with the For - EndFor loop?? Because the previous projects with array works flawless.

Here is a example of the code.



<?php 
CatchEvent OnLapperStart
()
    
GlobalVar $Rule#Have Set $Rule[1] - $Rule[16]
    
GlobalVar $CloseServerRulesOne#ButtonRow 1
    
GlobalVar $CloseServerRulesTwo#ButtonRow 2
    
    
$CloseServerRulesOne "&Close";
    
$CloseServerRulesTwo "&Close";
EndCatchEvent

Sub SetServerRules
($keyflags,$id)
    
$AP_HT 52#Local Var
    
closeadminpanelother2(); #A close function
    
openPrivButton"ServerRulesChangeTitle",70,$AP_HT+10,60,4,4,-1,96"^2blablahblah %nl%^2WAAAW new line blablabnla!");
    FOR(
$i=1;$i<17;$i=$i+1)
        
openPrivButton"ServerRule_".$i,70,$AP_HT+18,55,4,5,-1,96"^3".$i.". ".$Rule[ToNum($i)]); #Line of rule
        
openPrivTextButton"ServerRuleSet_".$i,125,$AP_HT+18,5,4,5,16"^3Set ServerRule","^0Set",60,ServerRuleSet); #Set button
        
$AP_HT=$AP_HT+4#Buttonheight + 4

        #closing vars
        
$CloseServerRulesOne $CloseServerRulesOne "&ServerRule_".$i;
        
$CloseServerRulesTwo $CloseServerRulesTwo "&ServerRuleSet_".$i;
        
    ENDFOR
    
openPrivButton"ServerRulesClose",70,$AP_HT+19,60,5,5,-1,16"^3OK",AdminPanelOther2); #This doesnt work if you copy this code hahah
EndSub

Sub ServerRuleSet
$id$argv )
    
$Rule[ToNum(trim(subStr$id,14 )))] = $argv#ToNum(trim(subStr( $id,14 ))) = trim first 14 chars and convert it to ToNum()
    
SetServerRules(0,0);
EndSub
?>


I know it is something easy, but i cannot find it. LOL

Looked at it, scratched my head a few times, had a couple of goes at it, scratched my head a bit more and then came up with the solution.
It turned out that the array was cleared every time a value was added (I used dumpvar(name_of_the_array)) to monitor that.
Adding a simple "". before the $argv was added, solved that issue.

Have a go with this:


CatchEvent OnLapperStart()
GlobalVar $Rule; #Have Set $Rule[1] - $Rule[16]
GlobalVar $CloseServerRulesOne; #ButtonRow 1
GlobalVar $CloseServerRulesTwo; #ButtonRow 2

$CloseServerRulesOne = "&Close";
$CloseServerRulesTwo = "&Close";
EndCatchEvent

Sub SetServerRules($keyflags,$id)
$AP_HT = 52; #Local Var
closeadminpanelother2(); #A close function
openPrivButton( "ServerRulesChangeTitle",70,$AP_HT+10,60,4,4,-1,96, "^2blablahblah %nl%^2WAAAW new line blablabnla!");

FOR($i=1;$i<17;$i=$i+1)
openPrivButton( "ServerRule_".$i,70,$AP_HT+18,55,4,5,-1,96, "^3".$i.". ".$Rule[$i] ); #Line of rule
openPrivTextButton( "ServerRuleSet_".$i,125,$AP_HT+18,5,4,5,16, "^3Set ServerRule","^0Set",60,ServerRuleSet); #Set button
$AP_HT=$AP_HT+4; #Buttonheight + 4

#closing vars
$CloseServerRulesOne = $CloseServerRulesOne . "&ServerRule_".$i;
$CloseServerRulesTwo = $CloseServerRulesTwo . "&ServerRuleSet_".$i;
ENDFOR

openPrivButton( "ServerRulesClose",70,$AP_HT+19,60,5,5,-1,16, "^3OK",AdminPanelOther2); #This doesnt work if you copy this code hahah
EndSub

Sub ServerRuleSet( $id, $argv )
$Rule[ToNum(trim(subStr( $id,14 )))] = "".$argv; #ToNum(trim(subStr( $id,14 ))) = trim first 14 chars and convert it to ToNum()
SetServerRules(0,0);
EndSub

Thanks Yisc[NL],
Never thought that something small like this could cause headaches.

Also i learning something new. Using dumpvar();
adminchat code?
