 |
|
I have an if statement that is resulting in the "Script Error:[string " addresslist = getAddressList()
..."]:6: 'then' expected near '='"
I'm not understanding what is wrong.
| Code: |
addresslist = getAddressList()
TopHero = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(addresslist,"Top Char in Party")
MidHero = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(addresslist,"Mid Char in Party")
BtmHero = addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(addresslist,"Btm Char in Party")
print(TopHero.Value)
if TopHero.value = 1 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp1
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp1
elseif TopHero.value = 2 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp2
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp2
elseif TopHero.value = 3 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp3
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp3
elseif TopHero.value = 4 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp4
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp4
elseif TopHero.value = 5 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp5
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp5
elseif TopHero.value = 6 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp6
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp6
elseif TopHero.value = 7 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp7
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp7
elseif TopHero.value = 8 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp8
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp8
elseif TopHero.value = 9 then
battlescreen1maxhp = maxhp9
battlescreenamaxmp = maxmp9
end--if TopHero.value = 1 then
memoryrecord_setValue(battlescreen1curhpaddress, battlescreen1maxhp)
memoryrecord_setValue(battlescreen2curhpaddress, battlescreen2maxhp)
memoryrecord_setValue(battlescreen3curhpaddress, battlescreen3maxhp)
memoryrecord_setValue(battlescreen1curmpaddress, battlescreen1maxmp)
memoryrecord_setValue(battlescreen2curmpaddress, battlescreen2maxmp)
memoryrecord_setValue(battlescreen3curmpaddress, battlescreen3maxmp)
|
The print statement prints a 2, I'm guessing it is a sting
How do I fix this if error?

To explain what the actual problem was.
In Lua, the '=' is the assignment operator '==' is the equality operator.

| You should show your script. How can you expect anyone to tell you how to fix the error without seeing your script?

Also, in an AA script you have to use {$lua} before you can write lua code, eg.
| Code: | [ENABLE]
{$lua}
print('you enabled me!')
{$asm}
// ^ ends lua section
[DISABLE]
{$lua}
print('Aw, try me again sometime!')
{$asm}
|
or
| Code: | {$lua}
[ENABLE]
print('you enabled me!')
[DISABLE]
print('Aw, try me again sometime!')
|
Of course if you didn't create the scripts then it's possible they're out of date and aren't going to work just like AOB scripts would fail. |
An example where the game name doesn't appear will save you time. (At least if it's a multiplayer online game scenario)

{$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
[ENABLE]
function setSpacetoZero()
local space="[[[[[[[Patron.exe+683D10]
local spacecheck=readfloat(space)
if spacecheck~=nil then
writefloat(space,0)
end
end
function timer()
t=createtimer()
t.OnTimer=setSpacetoZero
t.Interval=10
t.Enabled=true
end
timer()
[DISABLE]
t.destroy
This is the script.

You can edit the "setSpacetoZero" code again.
The code below is working with the current state.
| Code: | {$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
function setSpacetoZero()
local space=print("enabled") --[[Patron.exe+683D10]]
--local spacecheck=readfloat(space)
--if spacecheck~=nil then
--writefloat(space,0)
--end
end
if t then t.Destroy() t=nil end
t=createTimer()
t.Interval=1000
function EnableTmr() t.OnTimer=setSpacetoZero t.Enabled=true end
function DisableTmr() if t then t.Destroy() t=nil end end
[ENABLE]
EnableTmr()
[DISABLE]
DisableTmr() |

I should point out that ByTransient's method of creating the timer passes no parent to the function and thus you are responsible for ensuring that the timer is destroyed.
It's far easier to pass getMainForm() as the parent, that way when you close Cheat Engine, the timer will also be destroyed.

What you want to say; That "createTimer()" is a build of Windows, not CE?
I think the objects it created were also destroyed when CE was closed.
Whereas; In the "Task Manager" you can test whether any "Timer" works after the CE is closed.
Additionally a "Timer"; I don't find it correct to bind to any form (MainForm or UDF1). Most of the time "TFont" errors are caused by binding "Timer" to the same form.
Of course the decision is yours, that's my opinion.

What I want to say is that if you pass a nil owner for the timer then it is the user's responsibility to destroy the object when it is finished with. Cheat Engine will not know how to free the object since there is no valid handle. I am saying this because it states in the celua.txt document that you should be aware of this, as you will see below. Also, it's not to see if the timer will still work when Cheat Engine is closed or not, it's to do with "housekeeping" i.e. destroying objects properly also TFont is an entirely different class.
| Quote: |
createTimer(owner OPT, enabled OPT):
Creates a timer object. If enabled is not given it will be enabled by default (will start as soon as an onTimer event has been assigned)
Owner may be nil, but you will be responsible for destroying it instead of being the responsibility of the owner object)

OK. However, I don't think it's right to assign an owner to the "Timer" object.
(This is still my opinion, it has caused a lot of problems in the past. If it's fixed now, I haven't tested it yet.)
The "Timer" object is being killed in my code.
| Code: | | function DisableTmr() if t then t.Destroy() t=nil end end |
And "DISABLE" is running the final code.
| Code: | [DISABLE]
DisableTmr() |
