Hello modders community!

I've been working on a Light Potion and decided to add some configuration to it in the modinfo so I can choose the light color!

I attempted to call in my prefab the data chosen on the config option screen. The problem is that the game do not pick the data from the modinfo and the light on the character remains unchanged, very normal.

I saw this threat on the forum and tried to put what is proposed but it is not working. I just want to add several configuration options in my lightpotion.lua so the color fits the choice made in the configuration options.

I will show you what's in my modinfo, in the top of my modmain and what's in the prefab so far, followed with the crash log. Ask anything if u need!

Modinfo :

Spoiler 

name = Ada-Hadabra --GetModConfigData : USE NAME FOLDER INSTEAD!!! 
configuration_options =
{
	{
		name = "LIGHTCOLOR",
		label = "Potion Light Color",
		options = {
		
						{description = "Red", data = "Red"},
						{description = "Blue", data = "Blue"},
						{description = "Green", data = "Green"},
						{description = "Purple", data = "Purple"},
						{description = "Orange", data = "Orange"},
						{description = "Yellow", data = "Yellow"},
						{description = "White", data = "White"},
				},
				
		default = "Red",
	
	},
}

 

Modmain :

There is something wrong in modmain/prefab but I can't figure what it is. I tried different schemes, without luck. Red only is written for testing purpose.

Any help would be really appreciated, I'm sure I almost got it worked!

Note : Potions are stackable. I tried to put the addlight(eater) function in the oneaten function, which worked. But, when dropping the potions on the ground, the character loses its light!  The light entity was hold by the potions, not the character!

GetModConfigData function that is available in modmain is defined in modutil|InsertPostInitFunctions() as follows: 

env.GetModConfigData = function( optionname, get_local_config )
    initprint("GetModConfigData", optionname, get_local_config)
    return GetModConfigData(optionname, env.modname, get_local_config)
end

it calls the global GetModConfigData() with the modname parameter equal to the name of the current mod.

 

Thus if you want to use GetModConfigData() outside of modmain you have to specify mod name you are trying to access:

GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR", "<your_temporary_dev_folder_name>") , but GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR", "workshop-<your_mod's_id>") for uploaded version.

 

If you want to specify the name of the mod instead of its id, you can use modindex's translation service: 

local modnameFancy = "Ada-Hadabra"
local modnameActual = KnownModIndex:GetModActualName(modnameFancy)
local optcolor
if modnameActual == nil then
    print(string.format("Mod '%s' not found", modnameFancy))
    optcolor = "Red"
else
    optcolor = GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR", modnameActual)
end

 

You can also store the value in GLOBAL, just make sure the probability of the clash with other mod is low enough; something like 

-- modmain:
GLOBAL.global("mods")
if GLOBAL.mods == nil then
    GLOBAL.mods = {}
end
GLOBAL.assert(type(GLOBAL.mods) == "table", string.format("Type of GLOBAL.mods is %s, expected table; caused most probably by incompatibility between mods.", type(GLOBAL.mods)))
GLOBAL.assert(GLOBAL.mods.AdaHadabra == nil, string.format("GLOBAL.mods.AdaHadabra is %s, expected nil; caused most probably by incompatibility between mods.", tostring(GLOBAL.mods.AdaHadabra)))
GLOBAL.mods.AdaHadabra = {}
GLOBAL.mods.AdaHadabra.LIGHTCOLOR = GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR")

-- prefab:
local optcolor = mods.AdaHadabra.LIGHTCOLOR

    optcolor = "Red"
else
    optcolor = GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR", modnameActual)
end

I put these lines in lightpotion at the top. But how do I call optcolor?

Then I also added local optcolor = mods.AdaHadabra.LIGHTCOLOR just below, the headline prefab looks like this :

Spoiler 

local name = "korrigan"
local folder = KnownModIndex:GetModActualName(name)
local foldername = KnownModIndex:GetModActualName("korrigan")
local modenv = require "korrigan.modenv"
local Red = modenv.GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR")

GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR", "korrigan") --To be sure
local modnameFancy = "Ada-Hadabra"
local modnameActual = KnownModIndex:GetModActualName(modnameFancy)

local optcolor
if modnameActual == nil then
    print(string.format("Mod '%s' not found", modnameFancy))
    optcolor = "Red"
else
    optcolor = GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR", modnameActual)
end

local optcolor = mods.AdaHadabra.LIGHTCOLOR

local intens = 0.75
local potiontime = 105
local breakcounter = 0

--Code below, just like the first post

With this code, my modmain headline looks like this now :

local require = GLOBAL.require

GLOBAL.Orange = (GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR")=="Orange")
GLOBAL.Yellow = (GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR")=="Yellow")
GLOBAL.White = (GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR")=="White")

 

I have no crash, but the color remains the same, unchanged. Beside, what could cause the mod to clash with other mod?

If the other mod chose the same name and method of accessing its configuration options, or version of your own mod, if you by accident enable both the version in workshop-<id> and dev folder.

I'm really trying to make it works. I commented out some lines on the top of my script, which I don't know if they are right.

Spoiler

--local name = "korrigan"
--local folder = KnownModIndex:GetModActualName(name)
--local foldername = KnownModIndex:GetModActualName("korrigan")
--local modenv = require "korrigan.modenv"
--local Red = modenv.GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR")

--GetModConfigData("LIGHTCOLOR", "korrigan") --To be sure

Then I tried the 1st option. Nothing in the modmain + the new things in the prefab - just like in your post. The light remains unchanged.

So I tried the 2nd option. Global things in the modmain + the new things in the prefab. The light remains unchanged...

When I say "new things", I mean local optcolor, local color and (unpack(colors[optcolor]))

I might misunderstand something... and the modname should'nt be the mod actual folder (korrigan)? AdaHadabra "Ada-Hadabra" = modinfo's name.

Well, I assumed that your hard-coded way of specifying the color worked, and just needed it to be configurable. By seeing just the snippets of the code, I have no idea how they are used.

For example, addlight function is being called in oneaten function, but is defined after it; addlight function references inst, but that's nowhere to be seen to be defined.

 

Anyways, there's always the old-fashioned way. Add some debug prints, e.g. print(string.format("[lightpotion|addlight(%s)] optcolor=%s", tostring(eater), tostring(optcolor))) at the start of the addlight function, run it and see what the log says the color it read is.

 

Yes, modname of a mod (used for global version of GetModConfigData) is the folder name of the mod. That's why the KnownModIndex:GetModActualName(modnameFancy) is used, it translates mod's name as it is specified in modinfo into modname as its folder name.

This way you wouldn't have to change all the names after you upload the mod onto the workshop from your temporary dev folder name into final workshop-<id> folder name; which you don't know before you actually upload the mod.

Good! I passed eater all the way into the addlight function instead of inst and put the local function above oneaten and that's all!

It seems that your code nor mine was the trouble. I must admit that your way to simplify the color makes things easier to understand, this is a punch in my face, but a relief to my brain!

A very big thanks to you and the time you took to help me out! Time to play!

I'm also having some trouble with this type of coding.  I have a couple of mods that I'm using configuration settings to change prefab variables, sort of the equivalent of TUNING variables. I have a mod that works that adds new tuning variables via string referencing, but it uses an existing component and I'm trying to do it with prefabs

@mf99k You can just add them to the TUNING table. For example, GLOBAL.TUNING.MY_PREFABS_SPECIAL_VALUE = 30 (in the modmain).

That's really just another version of converting config data into variables in the global space. To reduce the probability of namespace clashes, you could also make it a subtable of TUNING, like: 

GLOBAL.TUNING.MYMODNAME = {
	SPECIALVALUE = 30,
}
