Common Code Examples

[AndrewD2]

That is ... odd. What is an example? I know UIDs and Tags are all Case Sensetive, although I guess some things like if statements can be If of if (I've seen both used in code).

The most recent example was

<before name="calc trtFinal"/>

vs

<before name="Calc trtFinal"/>

Calc should be upper case to work on a Mac, but seems to work with either in windows

[AndrewD2]

that is weird ... it's a string and shouldn't matter either way. If it's causing errors on a mac you should report a bug.

Yeah. In specific, your problem with my file wasn't causing a problem when I loaded it myself, so I didn't even realize the case was wrong.

I have been fixing up a modded version of the Hellfrost data. It looks like that I got the Disciple of Tiw working, where it allows for the character to treat Combat edges as one rank lower. I figure that there are uses for this in other settings/edges.

The timing is so that it will work for an Edge (as that is what the Disciple of Tiw is).

Initialization/2101

var rank as number
var target as number
rank = herofield[acRank].value
target = 0

if (rank <= 3) then
   rank += 1
   foreach thing in Edge where "EdgeType.Combat"
      target = eachthing.tagvalue[MinRank.?]
      if (rank = target) then
         var ignoretag as string
         ignoretag = "IgnoreRank." & eachthing.idstring
         perform hero.assignstr[ignoretag]
      endif
   nexteach
endif

Validation/100

var rank as number
var target as number
rank = herofield[acRank].value
target = 0

if (rank <= 3) then
   rank += 1
   foreach thing in Edge where "EdgeType.Combat"
      target = eachthing.tagvalue[MinRank.?]
      if (rank = target) then
         perform assign[Helper.IgnoreRank]
      endif
   nexteach
endif

Changing the cash symbol, and moving it to after the number: (PreTraits/5000 seems fine)

      herofield[acCshSymbl].text = " gp"
      perform hero.assign[Hero.CashBackwd]

Question,

I am looking for a common code example for raising an attribute by 1 or two levels.

I have looked through the listed examples and it didn't just out at me. Thanks.

That's because I think we mostly included stuff that wasn't readily available from other examples in the base data files already. Just take a look at the Race Elven (racElven), for example, which you'll find bootstraps the Racial Ability Agile (abAgile). Looking at the Racial Ability we see at Pre-Traits 5000 it does:

#traitcreation[attrAgi] += 1

Thanks,

I guess there really isn't anything different between raising the attributes before the player chooses them or after.

In what context are you trying to do this?
