I have seen the game using group: “group” for that, but if I use it in my mod (No Ultimate-Lib), it crashes the game, saying lines that contain that have an error. So, any help on that?
Anyone?
I don’t know I’m not a modder maybe some other forum member’s know?
Like? I mean something like this:
group = “test”;
GDT.addResearchItem(
{
id : “test11”,
name : “Worse”.localize(),
v : 6,
canResearch : function (company) {
return LevelCalculator.getMissionLevel(“Engine”) > 2
},
category : “Engine”,
categoryDisplayName : “Engine”.localize()
group : group,
});
GDT.addResearchItem(
{
id : “test1”,
name : “Better”.localize(),
v : 8,
canResearch : function (company) {
return LevelCalculator.getMissionLevel(“Engine”) > 3
},
category : “Engine”,
categoryDisplayName : “Engine”.localize()
group : group,
});
I think it is the extra , after group.
the thing is that it is not working. it just says that the line containing the group is an error.
… Try removing the ,
Don’t you think I tried it? XD Same error, just made sure.
Ok, so I’m going to give you some basic Javascript revision here.
These things inside the { } are called object literals. They are a way to create objects, which are basically a way to make a group of related variables together. Each variable (called a property) inside the object literal needs to be written as:
name: <value>
So if we wanted to have a property called age, with a value of 21 inside our object, we would write:
var ourObject = {
age: 21
};
But having an object with just one property is a bit of a waste. In the previous example, we could have done:
var age = 21;
Which would have been easier to read and use (age instead of ourObject.age).
So the real strength of objects is in allowing us to group a bunch of properties (and more advanced, other things like functions) together. To put multiple things together, we just seperate each with a comma.
var person = {
age: 21,
name: "Random Dude",
heightInCm: 180
};
The important to note as far as syntax goes here, is that commas are needed after every property that has another one after it needs a comma after it. However, the last one must not have a comma after it, as a comma tells javascript to expect another property, basically.
Looking at your example, the problem is here:
GDT.addResearchItem(
{
// Lots of stuff
categoryDisplayName : “Engine”.localize() // Add a comma at the end here
group : group , // Don’t put a comma here
});
A fixed example looks like:
GDT.addResearchItem(
{
// Lots of stuff
categoryDisplayName : “Engine”.localize(), // Add a comma at the end here
group : group // Don’t put a comma here
});
Oh yeah, this should do it, I hope. Dude, you’re just amazing. Try making your own mod!
Macha, you are my new hero. It works. Can’t believe I missed a comma there. I suppose i can add consolePart the same way.
Oh… XD Fail. Try updating it using the Steam Workshop
