Request for CT Automation Feature

[dreamcactus]

got abit of an current issue i cant get solved , its about my CTs , i need a universal lua script i can copy and paste into my CTs so they will save Cheats ive enabled including set Values to a profile and reload said Profile with enabled Cheats and Set Values but also lock those Values so game cant change it ,on fresh start of CT, been at this for a while and cant find a solution , im no coder just a average joe gamer here , so please bare with me, thanks a bunch

this is what i gots so far in my original thread, but dont work >

I've been working on a table for a future game for quite some time, and I've been using the register to load and save values. So you could use that if needed.

Simple code to save/create a register entry and save a value and load back when needed:

Code: Select all

function saveVariables()
settings=getSettings('SAVE') -- Create entry or get if it already exists
settings.Value['SavedVariable'] == readInteger('VariableToSave')
end

function loadVariables()
settings=getSettings('SAVE') -- Create entry or get if it already exists
writeInteger('VariableToSave',tonumber(settings.Value['SavedVariable'])) --Everything will always return as string
end

You just gotta remember that everything you save is going to be a string, so you need to turn it into a number by using tonumber. You could pretty much automate it to run on opening the table.
With that you should already be able to save and load anything. The other way I can think of is to use I/O.

finally! someone thats willing to help out here with actual solutions instead of having me start learning code lols, anyhow , so do i just copy paste above code into the lua window of my CT and save it and itll autosave my current settings to a profile including my set values and then when i start said CT from fresh aka restart it itll autoload previous settings from said CT including Set Values and freeze those values so the game dont tamper with them? if so , i love you! if not still do lol, but seriously then id need said function implemented , would appreciate a ton for sure , really would, thanks so far

Thanks GreenHouse!

Well, you would need to complete the "Save" script with everything you want to save. And then the same for Load. As for freezing it depends on what you mean exactly. But if it's LUA settings, then you could add a timer that keeps setting them or that checks each value, not sure how good that would be performance wise though.

What I said is pretty simplistic, just for saving and loading. For a more extensive thing, it would require some more work and testing.

[dreamcactus]

well ideally youd able to make this script work, thats unless yours already does this and more? , cause its already gots profile saving feature also saves cheats settings, or it should just currently dont, maybe have a looksee at it , it used to need you having to set a custom prefix to whatever cheat you enable with "Auto Set:" to every cheat , if you could manage to get it to work , it would save a ton of work having to manually type in said prefix into every single cheat into cheat description

requirement

[dreamcactus]

hope this explains it better

[GreenHouse]

I did previously see that, but that's just too much code for me to bother making sense of it. What is the exact problem with it? That the strings are saved like: "AUTOSET: 100", and you want to remove "AUTOSET:" and leave the number or whatever it has?

[dreamcactus]

naww i want to have the lua code NOT require the prefix "AUTOSET:" to have to be in whatever Cheats Description at the start in order for the save function to actually work for example like this>

AUTOSET: Infinite health

but just have the cheat description not require changing at all, like so

infinite health

and thus am currently stuck at this , since i dont know code and need someone to figure this out for me , since i cant figure out how to remove the prefix aka "AUTO SET:"
requirement

I'm not at computer but this might be what is required to save everything regardless of auto set text. I may have missed deleting an end for one of the if and since I'm on my phone, I cannot be sure

[dreamcactus]

thanks man shall test that out asap, finally we getting this in motion...

[DrummerIX]

well ideally youd able to make this script work, thats unless yours already does this and more? , cause its already gots profile saving feature also saves cheats settings, or it should just currently dont, maybe have a looksee at it , it used to need you having to set a custom prefix to whatever cheat you enable with "Auto Set:" to every cheat , if you could manage to get it to work , it would save a ton of work having to manually type in said prefix into every single cheat into cheat description

I'm trying again. I think this change might work. I changed the code in the quote above

[dreamcactus]

nope , didnt work ...

update> ok lemme check , again lol

[dreamcactus]

nope , wont save current enabled states and values , the I2CETState.casual.txt is empty and on startup cheats arent enabled

[DrummerIX]

I won't be able to debug it until Tuesday. If no one has helped you, I will try again then.
