ini read/write and a 105 variable GUI

09 May 2016, 17:42

i have been working on a game macro for a little while now , during which time my goals have moved as i see more that i could do .
i am now at the point where i need to save 3 sets (2 dropdownlist + a checkbox) of 35 data variables from a GUI .
reading the help and searching the forum has left me with a question ''how actualy do i get 105 variables to work with a single/pair ini read/write''
i am clearly missing a vital snipit of information needed to achive this .

once i can get the save buttonto do what it says on the tin i will have the same output read in at the start to give a ''settings save''
and as can be seen in the GUI i intend to make several of the more complex features ''self writing'' from info gleened by the GUI .

please help .

here is where i got to , with one change :- i have disabled the in-game only limit .

Code: Select all

; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; -------------- BASIC GUIDE TO HELP UNDERSTAND WHAT TO EDIT IN THIS MACRO ---------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; - This macro is split into 5 SECTIONs, each seperated by a titled header looking like this ---
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; - SECTION 1 is the macro's global effect settings which never need changing ------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; - SECTION 2 -- HOT KEY ACTIVATION ------------------------------------------------------------
; ---- the key pressed to trigger a macro routine is followed by a double colon :: -------------
; ---- the next line is GOSUB then LOGIC CORE name , or it's a single instruction --------------
; ---- avoid setting an activation key to any key you might need for typing in game messages ! -
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; - SECTION 3 -- LOGIC CORE --------------------------------------------------------------------
; ---- there are realy only two things you MIGHT EVER want to change here ----------------------
; --------- both are in the block ( MAIN_USE ) and part of the ( IF ) statements ---------------
; ---- the number of charges used before changing which SCB are powered ( HSused ) -------------
; --------- if your SCB dont have 5 charges change the numbers after the = signs ---------------
; ---- where the if jumps to ( SCB_Set_One/Two ) depending on your SCB piarings ----------------
; --------- most change requirements are in the change powered cell banks section --------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; -- NOTE to use a SINGLE SCB to charge shields set SCB_Set_Two as SCB_Set_One -----------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; - SECTION 4 -- CHANGE POWERED CELL BANKS --- ( default is for 2 SCB used simaltainiously ) ---
; ---- this is the sequence of keypresses , so changes here are likely to be needed ------------
; ---- the target name after each GOSUB is a single action (press/click of a button/key) -------
; ---- actions have the same names as in game key bindings (main menu -> options -> controls) --
; ---- for repeted actions LOOP, X repetes the action below X times ----------------------------
; ---- dont change the sleep numbers they allow you HS and SCB enough time to fire in game -----
; ---- befor changing this section write down the exact sequence to manualy change SCB in game -
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; -- NOTE to use a SINGLE SCB to charge shields delete the marked lines and the lines inbetween 
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; - SECTION 5 -- IN GAME KEY BINDS -------------------------------------------------------------
; ---- each block of code is labeled to the right with the in game key bindings name -----------
; ---------- these are also in the same order as the in game key bindings are listed -----------
; ---------- there also the start of each block as it is the name used for GOSUB to find them --
; ---- before editing write down your bindings or add secondary binds in game to match these ---
; ---- each action has 2 referances in this script , press (down) and relese (up) --------------
; ---------- these referances are on the lines imediatly above and below the labels ------------
; ---- sorry but you cannot set these to a hotas action , for this set a secondary binding -----
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ---------- DEFAULT ACTION KEYS SET -----------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ------------- F1 = Charge Shields (and swap SCB if needed ) ----------------------------------
; ------------- F2 = Target Power Plant ( not 100% perfect but CZ friendly ) -------------------
; ------------- F3 = AUTO Chaff (On/Off) --------------------------------------- Fix for duel --
; --------------F4 = Request Docking -----------------------------------------------------------
; ------------- F5 = Reset Charges Used ( for when you re-arm ) --------------------------------
; ------------- F6 = Increase Charges Used -----------------------------------------------------
; ------------- F7 = Decrese charges Used ------------------------------------------------------
; ------------- F8 = Increase SCB Chains Used --------------------------------------------------
; ------------- F9 = Decrese SCB Chains Used ---------------------------------------------------
; -------------F10 = Configue ship loadout ------------------------------------ not connected --
; ------------ F11 = Show Key Guide ( On / Off ) -----------------------------------------------
; ------------ F12 = Show Usage Counts ( On / Off) ---------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ---------- DEFAULT KEYS BINDINGS USED --------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; -------------- O = Deploy Heat Sink {letter o , not the number 0) ----------------------------
; -------------- P = Use Shield Cell -----------------------------------------------------------
; -------------- C = Use Chaff Launcher --------------------------------------------------------
; -------------- Z = Target Panel --------------------------------------------------------------
; -------------- X = Systems Panel -------------------------------------------------------------
; ------------- UP = UI Panel UP ---------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------- DOWN = UI Panel Down -------------------------------------------------------------
; --------- INSERT = UI Panel Select -----------------------------------------------------------
; -------------- L = Next Panel Tab ------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; --------------------------------------------------- AND FINALY -------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ------------------------------------------ FOR THIS TO WORK AS INTENDED ----------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ---------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST --------------------------------
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; -------------------------------------------- for ALL of the SCB functions --------------------
; ----------------------------- highlight the top scb in the Systems Panel and exit the panel --
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; -------------------------------------------- for the target PP function ----------------------
; ----------------------------- move to the contacts tab in the Target Panel , exit the panel --
; ----------------------------- a target must also be locked when you activate this ------------

Re: ini read/write and a 105 variable GUI

10 May 2016, 04:08

Xtra , wow ... ty ... a lot to digest with my morning coffee ...

so you have ...
looped most of the gui using 3 variables ypos + ischeck (which are straightforward and those names for ease of reading) + A_index (variable array). also you have added GUIcontrol to place the selected item into A_index.
the read/write ini (also looped) use A_index for the data stored in its array .

i think i see what is going on here , but dont feel confident that i could reproduce this if i needed to again . no matter at this point i only plan on the one project .
still i will spend the day reading and trying to force this to sink in , probably resulting in more question that i can hopefuly find answers to myself .

on a quick desktop try waiting for the kettle ....
your call to the GUI at start (i haddnt notice that change) was actualy kinda pointless as the game temporarily hides windows when active and you need to be ingame to fill in the GUI , but it gave me the logical idea to check if ''game.ini'' exists and if not pop a warning on screen .

TY again Xtra , this has probably saved me pulling out all of my hair (well whats left anyway)

Re: ini read/write and a 105 variable GUI

ok i have carried on from there , getting into testing the validity of the selections made in the GUI (that Xtra showed me how to get working with loops and the loop counter above).
i have got the first set of tests working , tho the whole intended routine isnt complete yet.
i am sure this can be simplified , it even look a mess to me !

also a quick question .... could i gosub from the popup GUI's at the end of this back into the GUI that sent the code this way ? if noone answers i will try it when i get some time.
tested and worked


this is the relevent sections.
