Hi Guys,

in the game I'm currently hacking (Daibanchou Big Bang Age), the character Data is stored in an array of character slots. The order in which the characters are stored my shift during the game (and almost always after loading the game anew) into a new arbitrary order. However, there is a character ID that identifies each individual character.

I've completed character stats manipulation tables for all 80 slots, however the user still has to guess which slot is filled with what character (or compare each stat until he finds an exact match, a determination he''ll have to make again the next time he tries to identify the character). So I created a mapping table in Excel where I can lookup each character, which works ... adequately well.

Can I instead store the table within the CT file and automatically map ID to Name, then present the name within the table's character stat section as a read only property? How?

Cheers and thanks,
Bosparan

Hm, are you sure there's not a "character ID" in that structure? You may have to go to the memory view and look at it in there to find differences but if there is then you can use that.

Right-click that address and choose "Set/Change dropdown selection options" and enter the ID:Name list in there. Check "Make the record display values like the dropdown list" and then that entry will show the character name for whatever value it has.

You could also do this on a copy of one of their stats or something if they all have one value that's unique to them.

Hi Rydian,

thanks, that was just the Tip I needed. Somehow I've missed that so far.
And as I mentioned, I know the character ID ... I just never noticed that dropdown selection options thing ...
Still very green, I see Smile

Cheers and thanks again,
Bosparan
