Ruleset Wizard - The new Ruleset development environment

[superteddy57]

This almost worked.

I needed to add it into an onInit function and it shows the text every time.

Thanks superteddy57.

Oh yeah, the first set needs onInit(). You could take it further with what damned said into this:

function onInit()
    updateTooltip();
end

function onValueChanged
    updateTooltip();
end

function updateTooltip()
    self.setTooltipText(getValue());
end

I create a new extension. Tried to add a new window and crashed.
Reopen the demo version. Tried to open the created extension (basicaly the empty one just created) and couldn't because it said it's a demo version.

Is this known issue or an expected behavior?

The part that crashed, i guess it's not ok.

I was trying to duplicate the video :

I'm getting very frustrated while trying to understand how creating extensions works

Hi, sorry, I've been on vacation for a few days with almost no access to a computer.


Indeed the demo version does not allow to load or save projects, but it should not produce any crash. Could you tell me how to reproduce this error?


On the other hand, creating an extension can be simple or very complex, what do you want to achieve?

Hi, i really need some help... I got some homemade rules and want to make a ruleset with Ruleset Wizard. But i got stuck. In my ruleset success of throwing dices - 6. In one throw can be 1 or 10+ dices. I want FG to check the result and massage in chat how much you got. But it always says "0 success"

code:

function resultHandler(rRoll)
local successes = 0


for _, diceResult in ipairs(rRoll.aDice or {}) do
if diceResult.result == 6 then
successes = successes + 1
end
end

local message = string.format("successes: %d", successes)
Comm.addChatMessage({text = message, sender = rRoll.sUser or ""})
end

I would be very grateful if you could help me

use the inbuilt diceroller string - and roll something like 2d6s6 and it will do the successes for you.

Thanks! its was so easy, i feel myself a little shame... well, gonna try make next step by myself) its like take result of previous roll, take all dice exept 1 and 6 result, reroll it, count 1 and 6 from bouth rolls and decide wich of them more)

p.s. Your tutorials are amazing!

Building auto-rerolling of a smaller set of dice is harder.
What I would do is:

1. Perform first roll
2. Count 1s and 6s and remaining dice and store them on a field on char/npc sheet
3. Make the remaining dice field rollable
4. it will roll remaining dice and add to 1s and 6s, declare result and then clear 1s, 6s and remaining from the character sheet

Have a look at the reroll mechanic implementation in Tales from the Loop for a rough idea how Ive set this up.

[psicodelix]

note that the signature of the handler function is not as you have used it, but like this


function onRollResult(rSource, rTarget, rRoll)


probably that's why it didn't work, because instead of processing the roll you were processing the source.

[Koshaker]

I was trying to use the built-in FGButton function on the constitution parameter, so that after the roll " {body_current} + d6s6 " it would trigger the script from "Result handler function name"

function onRollResult(rSource, rTarget, rRoll)
local playerNode = DB.findNode(rSource.sCTNode)
if playerNode then
playerNode.getChild("lastRoll").setValue(rRoll.nTo tal)
end
end

but its give me error about " String "Frontier:Scripts/RollResult.lua" :2: FindNode: Invalid parameter 1

i used GPT to find out, what can i do to solve this problem, but it was useless.

biggest part of time, i spend by trying use "rRoll.aDice" and save result by this function.
