need help for code based time event

[AkaiNight]

i need a code for play a music when character levels up

so here is the problem every monster has different experience points and i can't figure out how to do

i need help for code something like

character has tag on every level

like

if inst.level >0 and inst.level <=10 then
 inst:HasTag("level1")
  .
  .
  .
  elseif inst.level >10 and inst.level <= 21 then
  inst:RemoveTag("level1")
  inst:AddTag("level2")
  .
  .
  .
  .
  end

and i need code for if player in few seconds levels up (i don't know how to make some code based time) the music plays

The reason i need this code is when i use my code it plays everytime character gain exp but i must be only when it's level up

You should start by renaming your "level" variable to "experience". Then wherever you add experience to them, you do one of two things, depending on how you want this experience thing to work.

Version 1: Go to zero experience each level

Version 2: Continuously increasing experience

For both versions, you'll need to define how much experience is needed for each level. Is it just 10 experience per level, or does the experience needed increase with each level? For my examples below, I'll assume you just want it to be 10 experience per level, given your example code-snippet.

Version 1:

-- I assume the player (inst) has an amount of experience and a number representing their level and that their level starts at 1.
local function getExperienceNeededForLevel(level)
    -- You seem to have it at 10 exp per level regardless how many levels the player has, so we just always return 10.
    -- If you want to make it so the player needs more exp for each level, e.g. 10, 20, 30, you can make an algorithm for that.
    -- You can search for those on Google.
	return 10
end

local function receiveExp(inst, exp)
	inst.experience = inst.experience + exp
	var expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	while inst.experience >= expNeededForLevel do
			inst.experience = inst.experience - expNeededForLevel
			inst.level = inst.level + 1
			expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	end
end

 

Version 2:

-- I assume the player (inst) has an amount of experience and a number representing their level and that their level starts at 1.
local function getExperienceNeededForLevel(level)
	-- You seem to have it at 10 exp per level regardless how many levels the player has, but now we do not go back to 0 on exp,
	-- so we you want to make it so the player needs more exp for each level, e.g. 10, 20, 30: return level * 10
    -- If you want to make it so the player needs more exp for each level, e.g. 10, 20, 30, you can make an algorithm for that.
    -- You can search for those on Google.
	return level * 10
end

local function receiveExp(inst, exp)
	inst.experience = inst.experience + exp
	var expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	while inst.experience >= expNeededForLevel do
			inst.level = inst.level + 1
			expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	end
end

	end
end

 

I don't have any knowledge about coding and english is not my first language so it's hard for me to make some codes. Thanks a lot for helping.

 

But i have one question

what happens if the gained exp is much more than needed like

if character needs 30 exp for level up but the mob gives 50 exp? does it takes 30 exp and reset or takes 30 and hold 20?

or something like this

character needs 20exp for level up and for next level it needs 30 exp and mob gives 50 exp does it level up 2 times?

That's what the while-loop is there for. The function  adds the experience, and then tries to increase the level (and in version 1 subtract the experience needed for the current level) until experience is no longer above the experience needed for the next level. If you have no idea how to code, then I first have to ask you if you want to or if you just want this to work and then never touch coding again.

and im working on how to gain experience i just couldn't figure this part

local function receiveExp(inst, exp)
	inst.experience = inst.experience + exp
	var expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	while inst.experience >= expNeededForLevel do
			inst.level = inst.level + 1
			expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	end
end

i did understand what this is for but i don't have any idea about "exp" part i was using this

local function onkill(inst, data)

	local victim = data.victim
	
	if (
	    victim:HasTag("catcoon")
	) then

	inst.level = inst.level -969696
	inst.components.talker:Say("There is nothing to say... not even 'Nya~'")
end
	
	if (
		victim:HasTag("chester") or
		victim:HasTag("glommer") or
		victim:HasTag("hutch") or
		victim:HasTag("lavae_pet") 
	) then
	
	inst.level = inst.level - 50
	inst.components.talker:Say("Oh come on! Why i did that? I'm cursed now. Nya~")
end

it contunies with all mobs and im not sure how to change this with exp system. Is it ok if i just change inst.level =inst.level -50 or should i do something with exp thing or should i just delete inst.experience = inst.experience + exp and make something with the code i use before 

Edited December 23, 2019 by AkaiNight

[AkaiNight]

and here is an other question what happens if i just do that

local function getExperienceNeededForLevel(level)
	return level * 10
end

local function receiveExp(inst, data)
  	local max_exp = 999999999994650
	local min_exp = -99999999999999
  
	var expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	while inst.experience >= expNeededForLevel do
			inst.level = inst.level + 1
			expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	end
end

local function onkill (inst, data)
local victim = data.victim
	
	if (
		victim:HasTag("chester") or
		victim:HasTag("glommer") or
		victim:HasTag("hutch") or
		victim:HasTag("lavae_pet") 
	) then

inst.experience = inst.experience -50
recieveExp(inst)
end

something like that im not sure...

[AkaiNight]

nope i just failed. Its over me... im not giving up here is the last version(demo) of my code but i don't have time for try

 

local function onkill (inst, data)
local victim = data.victim
	if (
	    victim:HasTag("spider")
	) then

inst.experience = inst.experience + 1
end
end
local function levelexp(inst, data)

	local max_exp = 999999999994650
	local min_exp = -99999999999999
	local level = math.min(inst.level, max_exp)
	
	local health_percent = inst.components.health:GetPercent()
	local sanity_percent = inst.components.sanity:GetPercent()
	local hunger_percent = inst.components.hunger:GetPercent()
	
	var expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.data)
	while inst.experience >= expNeededForLevel do
		inst.level = inst.level + 1
		expNeededForLevel = getExperienceNeededForLevel(inst.level)
	end

if inst.level = 1 then 
inst.components.health.maxhealth = math.ceil (50)
inst.components.hunger.max = math.ceil (50)
inst.components.sanity.max = math.ceil (50)
end

	inst.components.health:SetPercent(health_percent)
	inst.components.hunger:SetPercent(hunger_percent)
	inst.components.sanity:SetPercent(sanity_percent)
end

local function getExperienceNeededForLevel(level)
	return level * 10
end

I don't have time right now, but at a glance I can tell you that you must always declare a function before you can use it. In the case of your last code snippet, you have to move getExperienceNeededForLevel above the rest of the code.

what do you mean with snipped

[Ultroman]

A block of code specifically chosen for presentation is usually called "a code snippet" or "a snippet of code". It just means "a part of some larger code base", where a "code base" denotes, e.g., all the code for a mod or all the code for a game or all the code for the Steam API.

okey i couldn't make this code work but im trying something like this

local function levelexp(inst, data)

local max_exp = 999999999994650
local min_exp = -99999999999999
local experience = math.min (inst.experience, max_exp, min_exp)
local max_level = 30
local min_level = 0
local level = math.min (inst.level, max_level, min_level)

if inst.level = 0 then
	inst.expneededforlevel= 10
elseif inst.level = 1 then
	inst.expneededforlevel= 20
end
while inst.experience >= inst.expneededforlevel do
	inst.level = inst.level + 1
end
end

but it stil crashes and i don't know what to do with this error it says "then" expected near "="

if inst.level = 0 then

here is line 46

[Ultroman]

if inst.level = 0 then

should be

if inst.level == 0 then

ah i just thought it was just bugged :/ thanks

FINALLY I MADE IT! Thank you for all your help and advices. If anyone would need it im leaving it here 

local function levelexp(inst, data)

local max_exp = 999999999994650
local min_exp = -99999999999999
local experience = math.min (inst.experience, max_exp, min_exp)

end

if inst.experience >= inst.expneededforlevel then
	inst.level = inst.level + 1
	inst.components.talker:Say("it works")
end

end

 

[Ultroman]

For future reference, what that code does, is start the level at 0, and then requires 10 experience for level 1. Then, from level 1 to 2 and onwards it requires 20 experience per level.

Why are you doing math.ceil on a bunch of ints? math.ceil rounds up decimal numbers, but has no impact on non-devimal numbers.

[Ultroman]

This function should return the values you want. I deconstructed your code into an algorithm, so you can save a bunch of code, maybe learn something, and also let your players level up to level 5000 with a continuously increasing exp requirement.

It returns two values. The first is the experience needed, and the second is the max stat value (for your health, hunger and sanity).

local extraExpRequiredPerLevel = 5
local extraMaxStatUntilLevel10 = 5
local extraMaxStatAfterLevel10 = 10

local getLevelData = function(level)
	return
		10 + (level * ((level + 1) * extraExpRequiredPerLevel)),
		50 + (level <= 10 and (level * extraMaxStatUntilLevel10) or ((10 * extraMaxStatUntilLevel10) + ((level - 10) * extraMaxStatAfterLevel10)))
end

Usage:

local expNeededForNextLevel, maxStatValue = getLevelData(inst.level)
inst.expneededforlevel = expNeededForNextLevel
inst.components.health.maxhealth = maxStatValue
inst.components.hunger.max = maxStatValue
inst.components.sanity.max = maxStatValue

That replaces all of your if-statements.

wow i don't understand anythin on that code :/ thanks a lot btw it's ok if i just replace it right? because i never see any code like this
