Colony.getCitizens() codes not working about colony4cc HOT 15 CLOSED

Computer.txt
Here is a copy of the entire code

from colony4cc.

Continuing on this, it seems that when you pull the citizens job status, it comes over as nil. So the string citizen.job does not work and needs to be fixed

from colony4cc.

Updated script:
Computer (Working).txt

from colony4cc.

The "colony integrator" is not from this mod. You're probably using Advanced Peripherals instead, which copied my API but not precisely. So the wiki docs here don't apply.

from colony4cc.

I fixed and used the colony peripheral and still ran into the same problem with strings.
Here is the error code:

and the script being ran

Computer.txt

It works for the 'type' string but does not work for 'upgrade', 'upgradeLevel', and 'structureName'

from colony4cc.

Again, this mod does not contain a "colony integrator" peripheral. At all.

    local colony = peripheral.find("colonyIntegrator")

This line means you are not using this mod.

from colony4cc.

It uploaded the incorrect one, here is the actual code that I am using that is using the correct mod:
This script works with the "type" string however when you input the "upgrade", "structureName", and "upgradeLevel", the script no longer works and gets the nil value

mon.setCursorPos(x, y)

This script works with the "type" string however when you input the "upgrade", "structureName", and "upgradeLevel", the script no longer works and gets the nil value

I don't know what you mean by this, that isn't anywhere in your code. If you want help, you do need to supply the actual code you're having trouble with and the exact error you're getting.

Though FWIW, your code to get the work orders looks wrong; you're asking for the first work order in the colony regardless of who it's assigned to. If you want the work order for a specific builder, you need to match the claimedByBuilding against the builder's work.location.

It's probably also worth mentioning that the format of a work order's details may differ in different versions of Minecolonies and different types of work order. For best results, try running textutils.serialize(order) and examine the output to see what properties exist on it, or otherwise inspect the data you get back rather than making assumptions.

Okay, this is what I'm talking about when it comes to inputting the strings:

My intention with this program is to be able to grab the status of the builder AND if they aren't currently working on something since having 16+ builders in a colony, its hard to keep track of who is doing what.

I have inputted these exact commands into the script to pull that info, using what is in the wiki and they come out as a nil value. The ONLY one that does not come through as a nil value is the "type" command in the wiki screenshot.

Here are the scripts for EACH of the other strings ("upgrade, "structureName", "upgradeLevel") from the WIKI Screenshot and their results showing up as nil values: (I recognize the screenshots all look the same but each were from the individual runs)

Upgrade:

upgrade Script.txt

StructureName:

structureName Script.txt

UpgradeLevel

upgradeLevel Script.txt

As for your suggestion, (thank you for it!) I of course would like the work orders to be assigned to the respective builder who's doing it, how would you recommend I rewrite it so that the work order is placed to the correct builder and shows up? Because the current way it works is it just shows that they are "building" under the type string vs actually showing what they are working on (Screenshot)

Here is the script that works to provide the screenshot, you'll see that it is using the 'type' in it on line 84:
Computer (Working).txt

That was the point of "different order types will have different data, this is just an example" above the table. Unlike most of the other methods (which have a more well-defined structure), getWorkOrders returns the internal data of the orders, which is highly dependent on the order type (and the MineColonies version).

Currently, the wiki is documenting what the format mostly looked like in 1.16. As of 1.19, though, things changed very significantly, and the data structure is now entirely different from that. Try running the following in a lua prompt (or a program):

for k,v in pairs(colony.getWorkOrders()[1]) do print(k) done

This will print the keys that are actually present in the work order, most of which should not be nil. Or, as I said before, you can just serialize it. Note that they will still be different between builder work orders, miner work orders, removal orders, etc.

Having said that, this has given me some ideas for improvements in this area.

from colony4cc.

Okay I ran 'for k,v in pairs(colony.getWorkOrders()[1]) do print(k) done' and got this Screenshot:

I went through the original code (Computer (Working).txt)to ln 84 and put in 'workOrders[1].translationKey' and got this result:

So it looks like 'translationKey' might be the new format for getting the work order on what the builder is actually working on. Now the key would be to have it run for each individual builder because with the previous mention script, its only pulling the 1 order and pushing it out to all the other builders. I tried removing the '[1]' however it came up with a nil error.

Will continue to test to see...we're getting close!

from colony4cc.

So updates:
After working through it all, it seems like in the current serialized data of work orders, there is no way to tell what builder is building it. There isn't any data on it. Here is the screenshot of the serialized work order data:

I am currently running this script and it originally had an "Assigned Builders" Category trying to pull from the Work Order data to see if there was any crossover. It didn't come up with anything. Here is the script for you to check:

Work.txt

This script pulls up this on the display (which is great progress!)

However there is still no way that I can see a way to connect the Work Order ID and the Builder actually doing it based on the data provided.

Any insights on your end?

from colony4cc.

As I said above, the claimedByBuilding is which builder is working on it, matching the work.location of the builder themselves, or the location of their actual building.

Note that it's valid for this to be nil, if nobody has started working on it yet.

You can use the vector lib to do quick comparisons of locations.

from colony4cc.

We finally got it going! Yayyyy after all this haha
Here's the script that finally did it all:
Work.txt

I also configured it to work on the pocket computer as well so it makes life very much easier.

So now my next question is, with the getbuilderresources command, does that give the entire work orders resources that you can access from the gui on the builder block?

from colony4cc.

Yep.
