I've made a new Skill Tree gump, and it works great except for one small problem, I cant figure out how to make it fire when you click the "SKILLS" button but NOT when you receive a skill gain..

ON=@UserSkills fires whenever you press the "Skills" button *or* you update the player's skills. The problem is, this is also the only way I can seem to control the Skills button on the paperdoll. So, what happens right now is any time a player gains a skill, the skill tree pops up if it isn't already open, and thats a bit annoying. Smile

So, I need a way to open the skill tree via the SKILL button that is NOT on=@UserSkills.

Any advice?

set a tag when you use @userskills to identify if you have opened the gump, here's an example considering that d_skill_list is the name of your gump:

Code:

on=@userskills

ctag.userskills=1 //set tag

dialogclose d_skill_list

dialog d_skill_list

on=@skillgain

if (<isonline>)

  if (<ctag0.userskills>)

    dialogclose d_skill_list

    dialog d_skill_list

  endif

endif

and in your skill list dialog (assuming d_skill_list):

Code:

on=0

ctag.userskills= //erase tag

I already tried using @UserSkills. Sad

The problem is for some reason @UserSkills fires when your skill changes, I'd almost think this was a bug.

So, the only way to block it under @UserSkills is to tag the menu when it's opened/closed, the problem is, if you check to see if it's open/closed on @UserSkills it won't be able to open in the first place when you hit the Skills button. :/

Here's my original test-script modified with Skul's code:

Code:

ON=@UserSkills

ctag.userskills=1 //set tag

SRC.f_skillcolor

SRC.DIALOGCLOSE d_skill_tree

SRC.SDIALOG d_skill_tree <TAG0.SkillTreePage>

RETURN 1

ON=@SkillGain

if (<isonline>)

  if (<ctag0.userskills>)

    SRC.f_skillcolor

    SRC.DIALOGCLOSE d_skill_tree

    SRC.SDIALOG d_skill_tree <TAG0.SkillTreePage>

  endif

endif

It pretty much ends up working exactly like my original code, it'll open the skill menu when you gain/change skill because it's firing @UserSkills on skill changes for some reason.

Here's my original code, with no @SkillGain at all.

Code:

ON=@UserSkills

SRC.f_skillcolor

SRC.DIALOGCLOSE d_skill_tree

SRC.SDIALOG d_skill_tree <TAG0.SkillTreePage>

RETURN 1

EDIT:
Solved! Big Grin

Digging around in the Sphere Wiki I found a command I didn't know existed... (ISDIALOGOPEN) and with Bens nudge, I noticed <ARGN1> could be helpful. It solved my problem. Smile

Code:

ON=@UserSkills

IF <ARGN1> == -1 //If -1, this trigger fired without a skill being specificed (Skill button was pressed)

SRC.f_skillcolor

SRC.DIALOGCLOSE d_skill_tree

SRC.SDIALOG d_skill_tree <TAG0.SkillTreePage>

RETURN 1

ELSE

IF <ISDIALOGOPEN d_skill_tree> == 1> // If your skill gump is open, go ahead and allow the skillgain to trigger the gump to open/close so it'lll update.

SRC.f_skillcolor

SRC.DIALOGCLOSE d_skill_tree

SRC.SDIALOG d_skill_tree <TAG0.SkillTreePage>

RETURN 1

ENDIF 

RETURN 1

Now, if no skills are specified when it fires (You hit the skill button) it'll open the dialog. Also, if the dialog IS already open, it'll close/open it if you do get a skill update.

If the dialog is closed, and you get a skill update, the pesky thing won't pop up at all.

Thanks guys. Wink

Glad I could help... The wiki can be really helpfull Big Grin

Rayvolution · 09-17-2012 02:52 AM

Yeah, I use it quite often.

It's really handy getting into the meat and bones of the code. Wink

I didn't know that existed. Looks like I need to update some of my scritps too.

Good to see you got the error solved.

Here's the final version of the script if you/anyone wants to look at it.

Note that the @Login Tag is there, and gets removed right at UserSkills fires. For some reason, on=@Login causes a UserSkills fire that I couldn't avoid. So I set UserSkills to stop if NoSkillTree == 1.

That way, when you login, all that happens is Login fires, setting the NoSkillTree 1 and then UserSkills fires immediately after and catches the tag, stops the DIALOG from opening, and deletes the tag so the script will work normally from then on out.

Later I'm going to rewrite my custom skillgain messages for "increases" and "decreases". Right now it'll just tell you if they changed and what they changed to.

The script is highly customized for my server, but at the very least you guys can pick out how all the IF statements are setup and make it fit for your own servers. Wink

Code:

ON=@Login

CTAG.NoSkillTree 1

ON=@UserSkills

IF <CTAG.NoSkillTree> == 1 // I just logged in, DON'T open the Skill Dialog

CTAG.NoSkillTree= // Remove the tag so the player can use the dialog now.

RETURN 1

ENDIF

IF <ARGN1> == -1 //I clicked the Skills button on the paperdoll to open the Skills DIALOG.

SRC.f_skillcolor

SRC.DIALOGCLOSE d_skill_tree

SRC.SDIALOG d_skill_tree <TAG0.SkillTreePage>

RETURN 1

ELSE

IF <ISDIALOGOPEN d_skill_tree> == 1> //I gained skill, and the Skills DIALOG is open. So close/reopen it to emulate an "update".

SRC.f_skillcolor

SRC.DIALOGCLOSE d_skill_tree

SRC.SDIALOG d_skill_tree <TAG0.SkillTreePage>

SRC.SYSMESSAGESKILL Your skill in <SERV.SKILL.<ARGN1>.NAME> has changed, it is now <SRC.<ARGN1>>!

RETURN 1

ENDIF //I passed all the IFs, so I should just give the player the skill message without opening/closing any DIALOGS.

ENDIF

SRC.SYSMESSAGESKILL Your skill in <SERV.SKILL.<ARGN1>.NAME> has changed, it is now <SRC.<ARGN1>>!

RETURN 1
