05:16 | < ShadowDragon8685> | Hey, I could use some help with Lua? I'm trying to edit a .lua file to mod Stellaris, but at the top of the key file I want to mod are instructions not to overwrite the whole file, but to override individual keys from another .lua file. |
05:16 | < ShadowDragon8685> | Specifically, it says: -- Note: for modding, avoid overwriting this file - instead overwrite individual keys from another lua file using the format NDefines.NCamera.FOV = 50 |
05:17 | < ShadowDragon8685> | I think I get that format - NDefines is opened with a french bracket {, and NCamera is opened with another french bracket, and FOV is the first line within that french bracket. |
05:17 | < ShadowDragon8685> | But how do I format another .lua file to actually do that? Do I need to open it with like, mod = { |
05:17 | < ShadowDragon8685> | and then fill in all the keys I want, and close it with a close french bracket? |
05:18 | | Derakon is now known as Derakon[AFK] |
05:29 | <~Vornicus> | You want to build a separate file because the file you're looking at will get patched (or have patc fails) when the game gets updated |
05:30 | < ShadowDragon8685> | Yeah, I got that. If new keys get added to the base file, the mod will become wholly incompatible 100% of the time. |
05:30 | <~Vornicus> | how precisely you talk about the other file and open it up depends on the system; I don't know stellaris so I can't tell you that |
05:30 | < ShadowDragon8685> | So I'm trying to override indivdual keys without overwriting the file. |
05:30 | < ShadowDragon8685> | I'm just not sure of the exact format I need. Do I NEED to like, open it with a, I think, class? (It's been soooo long since I sat in a Compsci course.) |
05:31 | < ShadowDragon8685> | IE, does the lua format require foo = { } to work? |
05:31 | <~Vornicus> | no, you want to -- uh |
05:32 | < ShadowDragon8685> | -- is comment notation. |
05:32 | <~Vornicus> | foo = { blah = 'cookies' } makes foo.blah == 'cookies' |
05:32 | < ShadowDragon8685> | Right. |
05:32 | <~Vornicus> | so what you're going to do in your other file is change the table by accessing the table and changing it |
05:32 | <~Vornicus> | so if you want foo.blah to be 'cheese' instead, you'd do foo.blah = 'cheese', and don't do that in a table |
05:33 | < ShadowDragon8685> | For example, the very first key in defines.lua is FOV = 35, which is inside NCamera = {}, which is itself inside NDefines ={} |
05:33 | < ShadowDragon8685> | So I just need NDefines.NCamera.FOX = 50 just, sitting out in plain text, to override that key? |
05:33 | <~Vornicus> | Yep |
05:33 | < ShadowDragon8685> | Ah, phew. Okay. |
05:33 | < ShadowDragon8685> | Err, FOV, not FOX. |
05:34 | < ShadowDragon8685> | Thanks. |
