readinistring

actually im new to ini and using this first time so how do i read ini

my WriteIniString is

Code Select Expand

WriteIniString("objects.ini","autosaved",i.tostring(), "CreateObject("+o.Model+","+o.World+",Vector"+o.Pos+","+o.Alpha+").RotateToEuler(Vector"+o.RotationEuler+",1);"); }

and my output to that is

Code Select Expand

[objects]
0                           = CreateObject(636,17,Vector(-1399.7, -650.131, 15.8679),255).RotateToEuler(Vector(3.0996, 3.0871, -1.26476),1);

how would i be able t read it

so far i have tried this but it wont work

Code Select Expand

if (ReadIniString( "objects.ini", "objects", i.tostring() )==null);
{
         print("objects reloaded");
    }

To create the object:

Code Select Expand

for(local i =0 ; i < 3000; i++)
{
try{
compilestring("objects.ini","autosaved",i.tostring())
}
catch(e) { }
}

{
try{

}


y compile autosave i just want to read objects.ini so that wahtsoever object is present in objects.ini so when i join game the object should be present at its location + that for thing didnt worked too

Don't know about ini but after reading data from ini file you must have to compile it in order to create those objects at their locations.

If you're going to the effort of writing Squirrel code in an INI file, why not just get rid of the INI part and use dofile?

i had that idea befor but how du u right something in a dofile???

[MEGAMIND]

eval is evil

there was no reason to comment that

He means since you are saving the data in ini as pure squirrel code, you can directly use dofile to load all the CreateObject statements from the ini file instead of reading them from ini as strings and then executing them/creating objects with them.

try

Code Select Expand

dofile("objects.ini")and it should load all the objects

thanks doom, i didnt got Stormeus messeage in the firstplace....

You can't dofile an ini, it'll cause errors. You should save them to a .nut file.

yeeep exactly got errors




and if i do this

Code Select Expand

if ( ReadIniString("objects.ini","objects",i.tostring()) == null )
    {
       print("nothing loads up");
    }
the console startsup normally but the objects doesnt load up saying



whether it's onplayerjoin or onscriptload

[NicusorN5]

You need to use that loop part. That's there's isn't a variable named i.

how ? u do know that im weak at ini

[=RK=MarineForce]
