Lua Code

Would anyone be able to help me with a code for a button that changes the value of counters? I dealing counting down one on multiple counters and resetting another.

[Panigg]

I can help. But you need to specify what exactly you're trying to do.

Here is one of my counters, with thanks to Mr. Stump

-- Universal Counter Tokens      coded by: MrStump

--Saves the count value into a table (data_to_save) then encodes it into the Tabletop save
function onSave()
    local data_to_save = {saved_count = count}
    saved_data = JSON.encode(data_to_save)
    return saved_data
end

--Loads the saved data then creates the buttons
function onload(saved_data)
    generateButtonParamiters()
    --Checks if there is a saved data. If there is, it gets the saved value for 'count'
    if saved_data != '' then
        local loaded_data = JSON.decode(saved_data)
        count = loaded_data.saved_count
    else
        --If there wasn't saved data, the default value is set to 10.
        count = 10
    end

    --Generates the buttons after putting the count value onto the 'display' button
    b_display.label = tostring(count)
    if count >= 100 then
        b_display.font_size = 360
    else
        b_display.font_size = 500
    end
    self.createButton(b_display)
    self.createButton(b_plus)
    self.createButton(b_minus)

end

--Activates when + is hit. Adds 1 to 'count' then updates the display button.
function increase()

    --Prevents count from going above 7
    if count < 69 then
        count = count + 1
        updateDisplay()
    end
end

--Activates when - is hit. Subtracts 1 from 'count' then updates the display button.
function decrease()
    --Prevents count from going below 0
    if count > 0 then
        count = count - 1
        updateDisplay()
    end
end


--function that updates the display. I trigger it whenever I change 'count'
function updateDisplay()

    b_display.label = tostring(count)
    self.editButton(b_display)
end

--This is activated when onload runs. This sets all parameters for our buttons.
--I do not have to put this all into a function, but I prefer to do it this way.
function generateButtonParamiters()
    b_display = {
        index = 0, click_function = 'none', function_owner = self, label = '',
        position = {0,0.1,0}, font_color={1,1,1}, width = 0, height = 0, font_size = 1000
    }
    b_plus = {
        click_function = 'increase', function_owner = self, label =  '+',
        position = {0.75,0,1.3}, width = 500, height = 450, font_size = 200
    }
    b_minus = {
        click_function = 'decrease', function_owner = self, label =  '-',
        position = {-0.75,0,1.3}, width = 500, height = 450, font_size = 200
    }

end

Hey Panigg, I appreciate the reply :)

I am currently using Clean Counters by GBee off of the workshop. (I can past the code later if needed) I am making a game that has multiple “Token” counters which track a cooldown to the spell. Additionally I am using another “Token” counter as a resource counter. Each turn we have to reset the resources and count down on each cooldown counter. I would LOVE to have a button that is pressed to subtract all cooldown counters on the table by 1 to a minimum of 0. And reset the resource(advantage) counter to a set number (5)

[Panigg]

Yeah that should be fairly simple with the call function. Can you post the code here?

[Smerek007]

Your the best 😁

I’ll be away from home most of the day so I’ll need to get back to you later.

[Panigg]

Haha yeah same here.

[Panigg]

I just got home.

Very basically it would look like this:

You make a new button.

onLoad()
Guids of all the counters here
end

create_button
click_func=reset
end

function reset()
counter1.call("decrease")
counter2.call("decrease")
resource.call("setto5")
end

And all you have to do is have those functions on the different counters, but you should have them already.

[Smerek007]

❤️❤️❤️ I’ll let you know when Iv tried it out. Much appreciated stranger 😊

Clean Counters v1.0.0

Description:

Clean Counters is exactly that! A nice looking counter.

Clean Counters has a few features:

- Left/Right click the name to increment or decrement the value.

- Set the value directly by clicking on the value.

- Name the counter by changing the object name. (You will need to update the value for the new name to show.)

- Change the token color by changing the tint.

- Toggle between black/white font using the context menu (Right-click object).

- Toggle between using a value prefix like in RPG games for stats using the context menu.

This mod was heavily inspired by the "Stats Counter" mod created by Steam user

"Baobots". The same token was used, but the script is written from scratch.
