Save unlocked skins

[rww]

Are adding a 200 columns can finish negative for server working (I guess yes)? So if yes, it is some another way to do save & load, is a player did buy skin?

Save them in rows, not columns.

Table account
Id | Nickname | ...

Table skins
AccountId | SkinModel

Then do something with it:

Code Select Expand

local skins = [], q = QuerySQL( db, "SELECT * FROM SkinModel WHERE `AccountId` = '" + accountId + "'" );
while ( GetSQLColumnData( q, 1 ) )
{
        skins.push( GetSQLColumnData( q, 1 ) );
}
FreeSQLQuery( q );

if ( skins.find( modelid )) {
        // bought
} else {
        // not bought
}
Untested.

If you're really lazy you can even save them using nicknames instead of account IDs. It's just a bit more ugly.

Ok, thanks, but now i have a next problem with arrays/tables. How can I add some skin models in one array/table?

Because i can't use (I guess yes) something like this

Skins <- array(GetMaxPlayers(),SkinModel1,SkinModel2,...);

Because I need to a specific player, not all.

Code Select Expand

function onScriptLoad(){
Skins <- array(100,[]);
}
function onPlayerJoin( player ){
Skins[ player,ID ].push( SkinModel1, SkinModel2 );
}Untested
Following one has been tested:

Code Select Expand

function onScriptLoad(){
Skins <- array(100,null);
}
function onPlayerJoin( player ){
Skins[ player.ID ] = [];
Skins[ player.ID ].push( SkinModel1, SkinModel2 );
}[/

Thanks, this is eaiser than I think.

My test code:

Code Select Expand

Skins <- array(GetMaxPlayers(),[]);

function onScriptLoad()
{
Skins[0].push(100);
Skins[0].push(101);

if (Skins[0].find(100) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skins[0].find(101) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skins[0].find(102) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
return 1;
}

And console:

Code Select Expand

[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] No!

You can setup a foreach loop too!

I have a problem...

Code Select Expand

Skina <- array(GetMaxPlayers(),[]);

Skina[0].push(0);
Skina[1].push(1);
Skina[0].push(2);
Skina[1].push(3);

foreach (ids, ska in Skina[1])
{
print(ids+","+ska);
}

foreach (ide, skb in Skina[0])
{
print(ide+","+skb);
}

print("another script");

if (Skina[0].find(0) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skina[0].find(1) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skina[0].find(2) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skina[0].find(3) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");

if (Skina[1].find(0) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skina[1].find(1) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skina[1].find(2) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");
if (Skina[1].find(3) != null) print("Yes!");
else print("No!");

print:

Code Select Expand

[SCRIPT] 0,0
[SCRIPT] 1,1
[SCRIPT] 2,2
[SCRIPT] 3,3
[SCRIPT] 0,0
[SCRIPT] 1,1
[SCRIPT] 2,2
[SCRIPT] 3,3
[SCRIPT] another script
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!
[SCRIPT] Yes!

This happens because

Code Select Expand

Skina <- array(GetMaxPlayers(),[]);Is saving the reference of the same array in all the Skina slots. Any change you make in Skina[0] will also reflect to Skin[1], Skin[2], Skin[3]....Skin[100].

A dirty way to get it done is to replace(untested)

Code Select Expand

Skina <- array(GetMaxPlayers(),[]);with

Code Select Expand

Skina <- array(GetMaxPlayers(),null);
foreach(i,val in Skina)
{
  Skina[i] = [];
}

Though, you should be using a player class for this sort of thing.

Thanks for help Now working

This can be a lot more better done using tables  or class.
