 Posted: Thu Apr 02, 2020 4:32 pm Post subject: Changing text of record when game shuts down |
 |
|
I have this but it doesn't work I get an invalid object.
| Code: |
trainer.pSXOn = createTimer(nil, false)
trainer.pSXOn.onTimer = pSXRunning
trainer.pSXOn.Interval = 1000 |
After a number of lines
| Code: |
function pSXRunning(sender)
GameExeFile = "psxfin.exe"
if readInteger(GameExeFile) == nil then
--AL = getAddressList()
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof1address,"Hero 1 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof2address,"Hero 2 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof3address,"Hero 3 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof4address,"Hero 4 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof5address,"Hero 5 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof6address,"Hero 6 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof7address,"Hero 7 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof8address,"Hero 8 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof9address,"Hero 9 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof10address,"Hero 10 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof11address,"Hero 11 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof12address,"Hero 12 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof13address,"Hero 13 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof14address,"Hero 14 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof15address,"Hero 15 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof16address,"Hero 16 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof17address,"Hero 17 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof18address,"Hero 18 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof19address,"Hero 19 Profession")
memoryrecord_setDescription(oldprof20address,"Hero 20 Profession")
closeCE()
end--if readInteger(GameExeFile) == nil then
end--function pSXRunning(sender)
|
This part of the code is older, thus the older style coding.
Anyway the object is to rewrite the records when the game shuts down however when the game is closed I get an invalid object continuously. Any help?

I think so another function run earlier.
| Code: |
prof10address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 10 Profession")
prof10 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof10address)
oldprof10 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof10address)
prof11address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 11 Profession")
prof11 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof11address)
oldprof11 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof11address)
prof12address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 12 Profession")
prof12 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof12address)
oldprof12 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof12address)
prof13address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 13 Profession")
prof13 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof13address)
oldprof13 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof13address)
prof14address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 14 Profession")
prof14 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof14address)
oldprof14 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof14address)
prof15address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 15 Profession")
prof15 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof15address)
oldprof15 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof15address)
prof16address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 16 Profession")
prof16 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof16address)
oldprof16 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof16address)
prof17address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 17 Profession")
prof17 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof17address)
oldprof17 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof17address)
prof18address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 18 Profession")
prof18 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof18address)
oldprof18 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof18address)
prof19address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 19 Profession")
prof19 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof19address)
oldprof19 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof19address)
prof20address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 20 Profession")
prof20 = memoryrecord_getValue(prof20address)
oldprof20 = memoryrecord_getDescription(prof20address)
trainer.pSXOn.Enabled = true
|
There is no code to delete any of them.

I think I know what the problem is for example I'm searching for
prof1address = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(AL, "Hero 1 Profession")
But it may not be that description (Text) in all cases, so I need to find a string of 17 characters, probably either beginning or left in a records description (Text). But I don't know how to set up a statement to search for that string. Another issue is that the string will probably need to be increased to 18 characters once the records go from Hero x to Hero xx.

Do not know if I get you correctly.
You want to restore default description after psxfin.exe process is closed? So, you are changing those descriptions on the fly.
You can collect those memory records and default descriptions with this code:
| Code: | -- a collection of memory records and default description
HeroProfessionMemoryRecords = {}
--assuming there's no more than 99
for i=1,99 do
local mr = getTableEntry('Hero '..i..' Profession')
if mr~=nil then
local mrInfo = { mr=mr, defaultDesc=mr.Description }
HeroProfessionMemoryRecords[1+#HeroProfessionMemoryRecords] = mrInfo
end
end |
Then you can restore those with this code:
| Code: | function pSXRunning(sender)
GameExeFile = "psxfin.exe"
if readInteger(GameExeFile) == nil then
-- restore default description
for i,mrinfo in ipairs(HeroProfessionMemoryRecords) do
mrinfo.mr.Description = mrinfo.defaultDesc
end
end
end |

I guess I misunderstand how you are suggesting the code here is what I enter and still got an error.
| Code: |
function pSXRunning(sender)
GameExeFile = "psxfin.exe"
-- a collection of memory records and default description
HeroProfessionMemoryRecords = {}
for i=1,99 do
mr = getTableEntry('Hero '..i..' Profession')
if mr~=nil then
mrInfo = { mr=mr, defaultDesc=mr.Description }
HeroProfessionMemoryRecords[1+#HeroProfessionMemoryRecords] = mrInfo
end
end
if readInteger(GameExeFile) == nil then
-- restore default description
for i,mrinfo in ipairs(HeroProfessionMemoryRecords) do
mrinfo.mr.Description = mrinfo.defaultDesc
--end
end
closeCE()
end--if readInteger(GameExeFile) == nil then
end--function pSXRunning(sender)

By the way, I do not see any good reason of restoring default description. Because you are closing CE anyway (with closeCE()).

Changing to what you suggested, gave no error messages when the game shut down including shutting down CE, but the code didn't work.
This is what I got when I reopened CE.
BTW there are only 20 records.
I haven't run any codes to set profession, yet. So it should look like
Hero x Profession
Hero x + 1 Profession
etc.

Wait, you want to change memory records descriptions and then immediately close CE? What's the point?
You know it won't save any changes to the CT file, right? CE won't detect those description changes and won't ask for saving it with:

The point is to have the descriptions blank instead of filled in when starting the table.

Well is there a command to save, then exit?

You can force CE to ask when closing.
| Code: | AddressList.createMemoryRecord().destroy()
closeCE() |
AddressList.createMemoryRecord() will create dummy memory record, destroy() will immediately destroy it. CE will still have editedsincelastsave internal flag set to true (it will ask to save changes).
EDIT:
By the way. I see you have memory record descriptions based on value (if 2 then knight, if 15 then valkyrie)
You know you could use CE "dropdown list" feature?
e.g.
| Code: | 2:Knight
15:Valkyrie |

@mgr.inz.Player
In below test, CloseCE() ignore change and close without prompt.
Not expected behaviours?
... probably custom MainForm.OnClose changed something?
@bknight2602
You can attach/modify the OnClose handler of your MainForm's.
The OnClose function / saveTable example below will execute when CloseCE()
[ will not ask saving, but you save the table by your own in below example ],
or closing the MainForm by manual click
[ will ask saving before running OnClose, cancel back to CE ].
Tested ce 6.7 & 7.1rc1.1 (beta)
| Code: |
if not Original_MF_Close then
Original_MF_Close, MainForm.OnClose = MainForm.OnClose, function(f)
saveTable[[c:\0\testclose.ct]] -- your ct file path
if Original_MF_Close then Original_MF_Close(f)end
return caFree
end
end

My bad, should be:
| Code: | AddressList.createMemoryRecord().destroy()
MainForm.close() |
