You have to elaborate a little more. It's a little vague what it is you're exactly asking.

The table is

Code:

PowerupItems = {
Brocoli='+0x0',
Dumbell='+0x4',
Jetpack='+0x8',
OJ='+0xC',
PB='+0x10',
BP='+0x14',
RP='+0x18',
Sneaker='+0x1C',
RHH='+0x20',
SB='+0x24',
Bulldozer='+0x28',
Horseshoe='+0x2C',
DM='+0x30',
Piggybank='+0x34',
CD='+0x38',
Dracula='+0x3C',
JF='+0x40',
Juice='+0x44',
Adrenaline='+0x48',
Berserk='+0x4C',
CS='+0x50',
SS='+0x54',
KH='+0x58',
WOG='+0x5C',
Enforcer='+0x60',
}

Which includes all powerup name and offsets

Code:

PowerupItem = '[PowerInventory + 0x18] + 0x20' --Base address to table

I setted function:

Code:

setPowerupAmount(id,number)
for i,v in pairs(PowerupItems) do
if tostring(id) == tostring(i) then
writeInteger(PowerupItem+v,number)
else
print(i)
end
end
end

[/code]

What exactly is the error? It's applying the number to all of the powerups, instead of the one denoted by id? _________________ Trying to learn! Add me on Discord if you want hands-on help: Birdi#0007

Can't really see an issue, try properly debugging it:

Code:

function setPowerupAmount(id,number)
for i,v in pairs(PowerupItems) do
if tostring(id) == tostring(i) then
writeInteger(PowerupItem+v,number)
print("Called ID: "..id.."\nRequested Number: "..number.."\nKey: "..i.."\nValue: "..v.."\n\nPowerupItem: "..PowerupItem)
end
end
end

setPowerupAmount('Juice',1) --Even with tostring(id) you need to call the key as a string

This is the correct syntax for a table with keys/values

Code:

PowerupItems = {
["Brocolli"] = "+0x0",
["Dumbell"] = "+0x4",
["Jetpack"] = "+0x8",
}

You can access the table by its key name like so

Code:

tablename["keyname"]

Code:

function findInTable(itemToFind)
for k,v in pairs(PowerupItems) do
if k == itemToFind then
print("I found " .. k .. " and its value is " .. v)
end
end
end

findInTable("Jetpack")
