Xyberviri Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) I created a mod that adds some items to the loot table, I decided to add some sandbox-options for the player enable the setting if they dont want parts of it going out. I noticed im only able to read sandboxvars on the creation of a single player game the first time its created. On following reloads the sandboxvars are not avalible until after i load in the game which causes lua code to bomb out if where messing with the loot table. option CarWanna.EnablePinkSlipLoot = { type = boolean, default = false, page = CarWanna, translation = CarWanna_EnablePinkSlipLoot, } then in media\lua\server\items\whatever.lua print("CarWanna Loot Enabled".. tostring(SandboxVars.CarWanna.EnablePinkSlipLoot)) this will report true the firs time i start a new game, but every time after that i see false in the console.txt. but if i start the game in debug mod and type the following in my lua console: print( SandboxVars.CarWanna.EnablePinkSlipLoot ) I will see variable as true, this seems like a bug because the issue occurs on reloads of the same save file, but not on initial creation. I tried sticking this in Events.OnGameStart but im guessing maybe i need to wait for a later event as a work around. its 2:39am and i wanted to type this up before trouble shooting event orders, so ill test that in the morning. edit: tried OnPreDistributionMerge ,OnLoad,OnServerStarted,OnPostMapLoad, all of them seem to no see the sandbox variables except on first boot.... I can read it with the lua console when i join so i know at some point its loaded, I just cant read it with scripts. I also tried getSandboxOptions and that isnt loading the current config during those events. Edited June 2, 2022 by Xyberviri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neznajka Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 "edit: tried OnPreDistributionMerge ,OnLoad,OnServerStarted,OnPostMapLoad, all of them seem to no see the sandbox variables except on first boot...." You need to do after OnInitWorld, like this Events.OnInitGlobalModData.Add(function() print(myvar) end) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xyberviri Posted June 5, 2022 Author Share Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) Ah no, that doesnt appear to be working either, i also tried OnReceiveGlobalModData, OnGameTimeLoaded & OnLoginStateSuccess local function TestVars(location,event) print("SandBox Variable "..location.." "..event.." Test boolean value: ".. tostring(SandboxVars.SandTest.isTrue)) print("SandBox Variable "..location.." "..event.." Test boolean value: ".. tostring(getSandboxOptions():getOptionByName("SandTest.isTrue"):getValue())) end Events.OnGameStart.Add(TestVars("server","OnGameStart")) Events.OnLoad.Add(TestVars("server","OnLoad")) Events.OnServerStarted.Add(TestVars("server","OnServerStarted")) Events.OnPostMapLoad.Add(TestVars("server","OnPostMapLoad")) Events.OnInitGlobalModData.Add(TestVars("server","OnInitGlobalModData")) Events.OnReceiveGlobalModData.Add(TestVars("server","OnReceiveGlobalModData")) Events.OnGameTimeLoaded.Add(TestVars("server","OnGameTimeLoaded")) Events.OnLoginStateSuccess.Add(TestVars("server","OnLoginStateSuccess")) I also have a copy of this in server and shared.... sandbox options seem broke... i guess if there is a way to read the ini files directly i can try sneaking back up one up and over via lua and see if that works. but at this point its easier to use mod options. This is all in single player and local hosts ive tested, ive even uploaded it to a test server and i get the same results. sandbox options are broken until some event i havent found yet. they work once i join the game and try to test it with debug console but i cant figure out how to use them with mods on launch of a server yet.

Neznajka Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 You realise your function executes immediately and not on event, unless you wrap it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
